Arrival Story:
Minxy's original owner had heart problems and couldn't look after her any more. They gave her up to Best Friends Animal Society (http://www.bestfriends.org/) who looked after her for 10 years until I saw Minxy on their website and adopted her.

Bio:
Minxy is a super sweet cat and loves to snuggle and purr. She is a total lap hog and making up for her years in the shelter where she had to compete for lap time. She also loves sleeping on a bed again and especially the goose down duvet. Minxy has absolutely no teeth left - the last few were removed last year. Despite this she can eat dry kibble with no problems and actually prefers this to wet food. She's relearning her table manners as the 1st evening I ate dinner Minxy ran up and grabbed the chicken off my plate. She's much better behaved at dinnertime now but still cadges like crazy.

Queen Of The Cats!


September 7th 2008 2:40 pm   [link to this entry]

My sister Xena (5 years old/over twice as big as me) decided to try to bully me and hiss at me a few weeks ago. Bad move as I stood my ground, stared her down and chased her off the sofa.

I suddenly realised that my new sisters were all wimps so I declared myself "Queen of the Cats" and have been showing them who's boss. Me!!!! I have chased, nipped and pounced on everyone and with my fur puffed up I look very scary.

Luckily for my sisters I have no teeth and my claws are trimmed so no one actually got hurt, but they are all treating me with the respect I deserve now. They will move if I want to be on the sofa etc and no-one tries to bully me any more.

It's nice to know I'm still Top Cat after all these years >^..^


I'm so happy!

It was very nice at Best Friends but I'm so happy to have a new home after so long. I was at Best Friends for 10 years and was their oldest cat at 21. I've been at my new home just over a month now and have hardly stopped purring. I can sit on laps and sofas and my new kitty sisters are all being very kind and giving me my space.

I think my name is now "Minxy Darling" as thats what my new mum calls me all the time.

Thanks so much to all the kind cats who have sent me nice messages and given me treats, rosettes and gifts to celebrate my adoption.

I'm going to have a nap now on my favorite fake sheepskin mat,

Love Minxy
