Bio 

In my past life I was an outdoor kitty in Wyoming who gave birth to four kittens when I was just 7 months old! Although I was a great mom who raised very friendly and cute kitties who found loving homes for themselves, I got sick and was not able to care for them. That is when I was brought to Animal Friends Alliance and I found Izzy! 

Izzy fell in love with my heart-shaped nose right away and took care of me after recovering from my spay. She gave me medicine to clear up my upper respiratory infection and ear infections. I noticed she gave me the best pets I ever had and kissed me a lot. I mean a LOT. 

She also found out pretty quickly that I came with baggage. I talk. Constantly. I am capable of making the cutest noises ever and also some very annoying ones. I act like I love to play but when the time comes, I just flop on my back and want pets instead. I act like I have not eaten in a year even though Izzy just fed me five minutes ago. I have learned that if I ask enough times, she will feed me again. This is why I am chunky. 

Somehow none of that scared her off.

Izzy continues to love me everyday and will talk about me to anyone she gets the chance to. Right now it is too hot for snuggles but come fall I cannot wait to sleep RIGHT on her face and give her biscuits on her eyes and neck all night long. 

Turns out, we were each other's pawfect match.
