We adopted Bubah as a kitten in 2005 from the SPCA in Largo, FL. Bubah has always been a little bully and runs or hisses from anyone feline or human except for my husband and myself.
This year we decided that maybe he needed a friend. We did our research with the help of the SPCA and they recommended a female cat. That's when we found Dixie, she was surrendered to the SPCA because her owner died and an elderly neighbor gave her up for adoption.
We adopted her in April, 2009. She is 1 1/2 years old and only weighed 6.5 pounds and was infested with fleas.
The SPCA cleared up her flea problem, had her spayed and we took her home. It was a tough couple of weeks...Bubah wanted nothing to do with her and she was scared of him.
One month later..."A love connection" was made as you can see in this photo. They do everything together and bring such joy to my husband and myself. They are so entertaining and it's nice that they both ended up in a loving home and have each other. A very happy ending!
PS: Dixie's last veterinarian's visit weighed her in at 9.3 pounds. She has grown both physically and emotionally and has transformed Bubah from a bully to a loving caring cat.
