Update on little Calico kitty

Do you remember this gorgeous little one that I scooped up at the location where I feed the feral cats in my town? She was with me for a week and then a lovely lady named Julie, who I knew through my friend Christine, contacted me and said she had heard that I was looking for a home for her and she was very interested. I was so happy because I knew this would be a great home for her.
I received this email and picture from Julie to show me how she is doing in her new  home.

I think she's gotten bigger already too. Although, the picture makes her look bigger at that angle. She can eat that little brat. She loves to clean herself up all the time. She's found herself a nice spot on the back of that couch, it's by the woodstove. She likes it there. I think she's a Mommie's girl too. She's really taken to me and I love it! My doggie Tex and Smudges have really improved a lot. The kitty rarely hisses now unless Texas (my dog) is running around. They've smelled each other nose to nose and all is good. You must miss her lots Deb, she's a beautiful kitty cat inside and out. Thank you again.


I'm so happy for this little cat who was so grateful for the chance to have a good home. When I drive over to feed the feral cats I think of this cat having been dumped (I suppose) and trying to survive with unfamiliar cats outside  in the dead of winter. -30 some nights. She was afraid and very confused when I found her. She ran up to me asking for help.


"Have a wonderful, long, perfect life, little one"


Hugs, Deb

  1. Oh my gosh. What a wonderful story that warms my heart. Thank goodness she found you and you took care of her. I have done that once before too...when I had a calico kitten about 6 months old literally dive into my arms when I was walking down a busy street. I could tell someone had just dumped her off. She was still clean. I took her home and found a nice home for her. I would kept her even though I have 4 already. This one seems to have suffered. Poor thing outside like that - all confused. Now look at her. She is so sweet.

  10. What a wonderful story!!!
    Before I had my son I worked at an animal hospital and my boss would take in strays and I loved it when i would find a home for one. I did my share of trapping cats (strays) at my home ...getting them fixed and adopted.
    It never ceased to amaze me how many wonderful people like you are out there helping these beautiful creatures!!
