Saw a post in the rescue groups on kijiji for a Pixie Bob male. Pixie Bob!? Love those cats, but they often fall in the wrong hands. Fortunately, this is a RESPONSIBLE owner who realized she could not fulfill the needs of this cat, and wants to try to find it a good forever home that will be able to give him all the love and care he deserves (she was very particular about this in the post, that always warms my heart). She already has pets and doesn't feel it's fair to the ones she already has, either. Some people might look down their nose as someone like this, but frankly I *LOVE* these people. It takes a big person to realize that you can't fulfill the needs of an animal, and to do something positive (aside from dumping them off at HAC) to give them what they need. If more people were like this, HAC would have less cats... less cats would be dumped last minute... things would definitely be different.
She was pleased when I contacted her and let her know I was in rescue, and that not only would her lovely boy find a new, good, screened home, but would be fixed and vaccinated too. That made her especially happy and hopeful. She's doing the right thing, and I'm pleased to be able to help her, and of course, the lovely kitty! Off to pick him up shortly. Packing up the family and a carrier and going on an adventure on the long weekend. Just a quick round-trip adventure, but everyone's excited about it! They all jumped to volunteer for the ride as soon as they heard what it was for...
Nope, we are SO not a "normal" family. I wouldn't change that for the world. Pics to follow...
