Fern

Happy New Year! Fern here. I came to the shelter last April, and then I was adopted for a few months. During that time we all discovered that I do not care for tiny humans so now I’m back at the shelter. Big and medium humans are ok, I just don’t care for the tiny ones. The folks here at the shelter have been talking about New Year’s resolutions and it inspired me to come up with my own list. I’m a young girl and I feel there’s always room for self improvement. So here is my own list of resolutions:

1. Get more snuggles. Especially on cold, winter days.

2. Avoid the urge to knock things off the table. OK, at least breakable things.

3. Figure out a way to get a second breakfast.

4. Purr more.

5. Play more. By myself or with others. I do like other cats.

6. Take more naps.

7. Make more biscuits.

8. Destroy the vacuum monster.

9. Finally kick the catnip habit.

10. The most important one – find my forever home.

If you might like to help me work on my New Year’s resolutions, come meet me at the shelter. You can fill out an application at www.responsiblepetcare.org/cats to get preapproved.
