Dixie

Our lovely Dixie came into rescue back in April 2024 along with 3 other cats who were signed over to us due to the owner no longer having time for them. Dixie was in the best condition of all cats and although on the skinny side was in good condition. 

Dixie from the get go showed us his potential with how loving and caring he was, always wanting to be around you and giving affection. It was lovely and we knew it wasn't going to take long to find him a home. However due to the condition of the other cats we had to wait until we knew what was wrong with them before rehoming incase there were underlying health conditions within him from the others that just didn't show. In that time Dixie became more and more wound up in the rescue environment, the restrictions in place started to irritate him a lot and once he was cleared of any illnesses he calmed down again when going into the main room of the rescue. This happiness became short lived due to the fact all the other cats started to do his head in and he in return became frustrated again. Finding him a home became more important then ever for this poor boys mental state.

Thankfully an adoption form came in of a quite home, where they just wanted a single indoor only cat and we knew Dixie would love it so away we went suggesting Dixie to this lovely gentleman who fell inlove with the sound of him and what Dixie had to offer. We are happy to say he has now settled in great!

Here is his months update:-

We're both doing well. Dixie is settling in and we're getting used to each other. He's always happy to see me when I come home. Mainly coz he wants feeding lol. He always comes and sleeps with me each night, he likes to keep my feet warm.
