Arrival Story: Sofie was our first adoption from Safe Haven Animal Sanctuary, a non-profit rescue organization. My husband and I were shopping at our local Pet Club store on Saturday, October 2nd, 2004, and every Saturday there is a pet adoption fair sponsored by Safe Haven. While we were watching them get set up, I spotted a sweet little kitty face peering from her cage in the very back of the room. Once they were ready to let people in, I went straight to "Lizzie's" cage. Diane, her foster mom and rescuer, told us that Sofie was rescued along with her brother Smitty and sister Midgie on June 29th, 2004, from someone's front yard. The homeowners wouldn't feed them because they wanted them to leave the property. We took turns holding Sofie all wrapped up in a small blanket and decided to adopt her. Diane brought her to our home a few days later. I purchased a pink bed just for her and she stayed there, looking nervous. Milo was the first of our pets to meet Sofie and he immediately started to groom her, which was what she really needed. Milo was like a nurturing father and she loved him the most.

Bio: Sofie was extremely shy towards humans, but with alot of patience, love, and understanding, she has slowly come out of her shell and we don't push her. Her meow is tiny and squeaky and she's petite for her age. Though she's still somewhat shy, she's a sweet little girl who has blossomed into a wonderful little lady and has learned that her mom and dad are good people that love her. Sofie has beautiful electric green eyes, but she's very camera-flash sensitive, so I'm not always able to capture their true beauty.

I played hide-and-go-seek with Mom today when she was looking for me to take some pictures. She "found" me several times but I wouldn't let her catch me until much later. I was rewarded with chicken afterwards so I guess it was worth all the exercise!
Thank you Hazel Lucy, Lil' Muppet, Beauty and family, Hilda and family, Sissy and family, Teebo and Callie, Tigger, Chef Rooster, Edgar, Sugar, Hunter, and Stoney for celebrating my 5th Catster anniversary with me.
Love,
Sofie

Happy Halloween!
Today I received my special 5th Catster cake. I haven't grown in size very much since I first became a member, but I've definitely changed my attitude about living here.
Mom thinks I am as cute as a button and Dad is still calling me Sofie Little because I "am" little, but I sure have a big appetite. In the past, I've gone through periods of being affectionate and then retreating back to being super shy, but I've changed so much lately. It can only get better!
Thanks to all my friends for being my friends!
Love,
Sofie

Oh, I think it's pretty obvious why I was chosen to be one of the ballerina munchkins from the Wizard of Oz...because I am a munchkin!
Mom made my hat very quickly out of felt and during the photo shoot it started to rip at the seams. Stopping to repair it was out of the question so it was decided I was done at that time.
I have continued to be quite the sociable kitty and my parents are very happy about that. I also heard that giving Quincy chicken would be a good thing during his chemo treatment so I'm thrilled!
Love,
Sofie the munchkin
