Meet Lionel

















Two weeks ago, when visiting Del Rio, I found a tiny, emaciated kitten. William named her June and we decided to keep her. We were not looking for another kitty but she crossed our path and it was love at first sight. Sadly, June was too young and too sick and could not make it here on earth. She suddenly passed away last week leaving us really sad. She had a really unique personality and was very easy to love.

One of the many things June did for us was draw our attention to the cat crisis in Austin. We decided we would adopt a kitten but perhaps at a later date. I went to Austin Pet's Alive fill out an application to have on hand later. While I was there this little black and white kitten hopped on my lap, purring loudly. He never left my side the whole time I was there. After I left I found my thoughts going back to him. I was told black and tuxedo kitties had a harder time finding forever homes. I discussed it with William who said go ahead and adopt him. Lionel came home today and has managed to make us all swoon. Thanks to Austin Pets Alive he is healthy, has had all the necessary vaccinations and has been neutered. All we have to do is provide him with a loving home. Tres easy.

It looks like Lionel found you. I have always had shelter/rescue pets. Every one of them deserves a loving home.

I wonder why they told you that tuxedo cats have a hard time finding homes . . . maybe to get you to adopt one? If that is the case, I'm glad it worked. Lionel is a lucky boy.
