Dixie Dogs & Cats

Pet overpopulation isn't the end of the world unless you're a puppy or a kitten.

We have fostered/adopted hundreds of pets here are a few stories.



I am getting sooo comfortable in my new home.....
My (new) mother made me an egg for Sunday breakfast and added it in my kibble... yummy.
She also bought me a sweater (sigh), because she thinks I might catch a chill during my first New England winter.   Right now, I am relaxing in front of the fireplace.
Life is good.
Marlo  
p.s. My new parents are thinking about changing my name to Maxwell - after the famous equation - whatever that means.
