It’s the season of granting wishes. Like the wish of a new home with a forever family. Please read, share, like and help spread the animals Santa letters.
December 1st
Hi, Santa-- I hear you're the Dude in the red suit who makes Christmas dreams come true. My name is Buddy, and my dream is everyday-- I want to find MY buddy. In order to do this, I've learned to wait for the people who sometimes don't close the door of my room right away. "Whoosh" give me a chance and I'm out and exploring down the hall, maybe the visiting room where there are some toys, or in the kitchen with the interesting smells. Someone always comes to put me back in my room, but that's not what I want. I wish they could take like 20-30 minutes and just sit and pet me. Yes, pet me until I'm so contented my pink tongue starts poking out between my teeth (my cute look), and I forget about needing to escape. Santa, if you could find me a good Buddy who would keep me inside, fill the food dish regularly, and pet my soft black fur......that would be super duper. I was outside looking for a home (got a notched ear) before the shelter, and had the FIV virus. I'm not sick-- witnesses will attest to my hall running ability-- but I'd like to stay inside now and enjoy the good life. How about it, Santa Buddy Old Pal-- can you make this cat's dream come true ?
Love Buddy🐾
