May 2007 - What Does Lizzie Say?

Dear friends:

I really need your help right now with a most unfortunate situation.  Now, I know that many of you read my column, because lots of you wrote to me again last month.  I heard from some of you who felt that I had been too soft on the pet food executives who were selling the bad foods that made some of us sick and even die.  Many of you thoughtfully provided more colorful terms for me to use the next time I write about those bad people.  It was quite an education for me.  I had to ask my Mom to explain some of the words you kindly suggested I use.  MY GOODNESS!  Do you really let your owners talk like that at home?  I don't think that Mom will let me say d------d or a-----e or the one where you most graphically described where their heads had been or should be (is that even possible?), but I will remember your words because I am sure they will be useful someday - like if I ever run for public office.


Sorry, the Terrier-brain kicked in and I got distracted...where was I?  OH YES.  We have a sad situation at our hospital.  Have you looked at our KPR information on the website lately?  If you have, you will see that Goldie, the kitty we have had so long, has not found a home yet.  I am getting very worried about her.  She is such a good cat, and she really, really, really needs to go home with one of you.  I think it is very bad for her to be cooped up at the clinic for as long as she has been.  Whenever I go in to talk to her, she seems so sad.  I would be sad, too, if no one wanted me.


I don't understand why no one wants Goldie.  She is so pretty!  Just look at her little face.  And she likes dogs, and other cats, and she loves to be held.  When my Mom works late at night at the hospital, Goldie lays on the end of her desk and watches and purrs.  When she goes home for the weekend with Chani, she plays with Chani's cats.  And she is all better from being sick when we got her, and all her blood tests are good, and she is spayed, and she's not picky about her food, and she always uses her litter box, and she just wants to go home with someone who will love her.


I bet that if everyone who reads my column this month tells just three of their friends about Goldie, and if they ask each of those friends to tell three more friends about her, we could find her a home soon.  And someone nice to love her.  It is spring, and a kitty should have a nice sunny window to sit in (that's what my two kitties tell me, anyway).  And my Xena says soon it will be time to catch June bugs (I don't understand why this is special, but she say it is a lot of fun and that they are deliciously crunchy - ewww!). 


Can you help me find a home for her?  I kinda told Goldie that I am the Boss at the hospital and that I would try to help her, so I really need you to come through for me.  All you have to do is tell any interested friend that they can call Michelle or Chani at our hospital and schedule a time to come in and meet Goldie and see if she is the cat for them.   I hope I can tell you next month that Goldie is in a home as good as mine!

Your good friend, LIZZIE
