Story
Skeeter is a sweet affectionate young cat / kitten. She is only 9 months old but most likely will not get much larger. She is very small. She is fully vetted and spayed ; however, she is FIV positive so she should not be in a home with any other kittens / cats unless they are FIV positive too. Skeeter is fostered at Lee's Veterinary Hospital in Cullman, AL. Please give this young girl a chance at a loving home if you can. Please call Lee's Vet Hospital at 256- 735-1177 if you have any questions concerning Skeeter or if you may be interested in adopting this sweet girl.

Story
Meet Mama Kitty! She's the Mom to Boy Kitty and a previous litter of kittens that was adopted out through DGDR earlier this year. Mama Kitty was living life as a stray but was being fed by a kind hearted cat lover. Unfortunately that cat lover got very ill, eventually succumbing to her disease, but her care takers took over caring for Mama Kitty. They worked hard to earn her trust and and now she's living the good life! Mama Kitty is around 3 years old and is such a sweetheart! She is black with a tiny sprinkling of white hairs along the back of her neck. She is a soft shorthair with the most expressive eyes and almost too big for her head, ears. :D This sweet Mama is great with pups, other cats, and not so screamy kids. She will need a little time to adjust like most cats but once she knows its a safe space, she blossoms! It took a little time once she moved into her new foster home but Boy Kitty's extremely outgoing nature helped her open her up so they would love to be adopted together or to a home with another friendly cat. Mama Kitty would prefer a quieter home but is okay with dance parties and knows her routine. When she does get startled, she runs to her cat bed but comes out as soon as she realizes everything is fine. Nothing against screaming toddlers but this damsel is more of a cuppa sipping, lap sitting, bird watching, and comfy place napping type of cat. She's quiet company that will be your best friend and gentle companion. She is a bit of a squeaker like Boy Kitty and will talk to you, letting you know it's time for dinner, she's ready for ear scratchies (or more ear scratchies), and just to say hello. Mama Kitty doesn't love being carried but she will settle into your lap or next to you after she paces back and forth for a bit. She's just looking for someone to give her that chance. If you think that might be you, please let us know by completing an app here: dixiegirldogrescue.org/adopt-form. We'll forward it to her foster mom who will share all the pictures and talk all things Mama Kitty with you to ensure it's a match. ================================================================== If interested in adopting one of our available pets, please fill out an application at http://www.dixiegirldogrescue.org/adopt-form Most of our are pets are fostered in Southern foster homes and are posted for adoption once they are completely vetted and ready to travel.

Story
Newo is a playful, wonderful kitten. She’s roughly 6 months old. She squeals and coos more than she meows and she “dances” at meal times. I found Newo while I was out running. She was standing on a sidewalk - tiny, filthy, and alone. I took her to the vet and found out that she had a “tail-pull injury”. It wasn’t something I’d ever heard of, but the vet recommended having her tail removed after she got a little stronger because it was useless and pretty badly injured. After her surgery, she became a perfectly happy and normal kitten. She’s 110% mobile - she runs and jumps - but her bladder needs to be expressed twice a day as a result of the tail pull injury. Every now and again she misses the litter box when pooping but she isn’t incontinent - she just gets out too early She needs someone who’s home more often than we are to help her pee. It is possible that her nerves will recover (slowly) but it’s uncertain. She’s such a great kitty and deserves a wonderful home.
