My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Hi there, I’m Dixie, and I’m a lovely lady with a gentle soul and a big heart. I thrive in a peaceful home where I can relax, be myself, and enjoy the simple joys of life — like a cozy nap spot, a bowl of fresh water, and a little quiet companionship. I do best in a low-stress environment where everything feels predictable and calm. I'm not one for chaos — I’m all about the zen. A clean litter box and a bit of routine go a long way in keeping me happy and healthy. I have a few special needs that make me extra unique. I need wet food to stay feeling my best, and I really love staying hydrated. If you’ve got a cat water fountain, I’ll be your biggest fan! I may be low-maintenance when it comes to activity, but I appreciate the little things — a gentle voice, a warm lap, and a peaceful place to call home. If you're looking for a serene and sweet companion who will quietly fill your home with love, I just might be your girl. Give me a calm space, a bit of patience, and a lot of love — and I’ll reward you with my gentle, grateful heart.

Estimated Birthdate: 7/15/2020

Likes: Staying well-hydrated, a clean litter box, and wet food - yum!

Dislikes: Being in a stressful or unpredictable environment.
