My story

My Friends at Wayside say:-I’m shy at first but full of love!-I am very affectionate-I love treats, especially Churu-I am a social eaterMy home preferences (Restrictions):-I would like a quiet home environment-I may need extra time to warm up in a homePurrs to meet you, I’m Dixie! I’m a 1-year-old black cat with the softest fur and a heart that’s just waiting to be shared with the right person. I may come across as shy at first, but please don’t mistake my quiet nature for disinterest, I’m simply taking my time to feel safe and to get to know you. Once I trust you, my personality blossoms, and you’ll see that I’m full of affection. I love gentle pets, cozy spots where I can curl up near you, and calm moments spent together.One of the quickest ways to my heart is through treats, especially Churu! That’s my absolute favorite, and I can’t resist it. I’m also a social eater, so I enjoy having my meals when you’re nearby. It makes me feel more comfortable and connected to you.Because I can be sensitive to loud noises and sudden changes, I would thrive best in a quiet home environment. I might need some extra time to settle in, but if you give me patience, love, and understanding, I will reward you with loyalty, sweetness, and the joy of seeing me truly relax and be myself. I’m ready to find someone who will appreciate my gentle nature and give me the safe, loving home I deserve. Meet me soon, okay? Love, Dixie

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Dixie, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
