| My Rescue Family |
| Popsicle was my first cat. He was a kitten I got from free at a flea market. He was only four weeks old and was in a small crate with a plate of bread and milk. I knew he was too young to have been taken away from his mother, so I had to take him home. Now he has the demeanor of a faithful dog, and is quite a character! And yes, he's sucking his thumb... errr... I mean foot! |
Auralue
| I found Auralue in the back yard of my apartment in Fort Dodge. I found her 3 days before she gave birth to two kitten!!! She wasn't super friendly when I first found her but now that she's been a part of the family for almost 6 years she thinks she runs the place!!! |
Chipwich
| Chipwich adopted me at a shelter with a high euthanasia rate. He reached out and grabbed my pant leg as I walked by. He had the tiniest little meow, and I couldn't leave him there!!! He's been a part of the family for 5 years now. He is my enforcer who used to keep all of my rescue kittens in line (before he'd snuggle up with them!!) |
Ginny
| I got Ginny in November of 2006. She is a Selkirk Rex and is a retired Show Kitty. She was pretty skiddish when we first brought her home, but now she is a professional lounger and LOVES to sleep pretty much anywhere... especially on anything my husband has just set down on the counter!!! |
Poe
| Poe came from the same breeder I got Ginny from. He was a 6 month old kitten in September of 2006, and because of his straight haired coat on black and white coloring, she was having trouble finding a home for him. She gave him to me with Vino, knowing he would have a good home with us!!! He is a complete lover, and has earned the nickname "Poe-go" because he is ALWAYS in your face!! |
Vino
| Vino was born to be a show cat, but she didn't quite grow up to the breed standards and was retired. I met her when she was a kitten, but was unable to get her until she was a year and a half. She is a beautiful Bi-colored curly haired Selkirk Rex. She is affectionately called "the funny looking one" because she has a perpetually grumpy look on her face!!! She has inherited her personality from her mother, Ginny, and she LOVES to lounge!! |
