shelter pets | WEGGIEBOY'S BLOG by Doug Thomas

Remember Sox the tuxedo cat, my sister’s cat that went missing for 10 months? He looked a bit rough at the shelter, as you can imagine after being missing for 10 months. His sleek fur was dirty and a bit ruffled. He needed a good grooming!

What Sox looks like in his prime…just wait till his hair grows out again!

Here’s a bonus photo of Sox in his hidey hole, among some stuffed toys.

Where’s kitty?

Thanks to my sister for sharing her photos with me and telling me about Sox’s adventure! Anyone who’s had a pet go missing can take heart from Sox’s story.

There are examples of cats and dogs showing up after long times and great distances, but they always seem a bit like fairy tale animals until one turns out to be the pet of a family member or yourself.

Here’s a photo of Sox enjoying some bird watching out the window.

Tomorrow, Ms. Zulu talks with Andy and Dougy about being cats. Anarette and I have seen the questions for this interview and the one Andy and Dougy do with Ms. Zulu to find out what it’s like to be a dog. The second interview will come out at the end of the week — we’ll let you know exactly when later! We know you will be entertained by both and won’t want to miss either interview!

Andy has a new respect for dogs, thanks to the interview with Ms. Zulu! Even he was surprised how much he liked Ms. Zulu.

Dougy wonders if Ms. Zulu will come for a viosit or if they will just have to settle for Skype visits. He thinks Ms. Zulu is a lot of fun!

We are really excited about these interviews because Ms. Zulu and Andy and Dougy ask provocative, very pointed questions about wet dog smell and herding cats, for example. They may be cute, but our dog and cats don’t hold anything back!
