So, we decided that Izzy needed more freedom & attention than what we could give her. Also, ever since I(Jen) found out I am allergic to cats.....Izzy just has so much hair, she would cause me to cough & sneeze. We can shave "Meow Meow" but not Izzy. Izzy's hair is what makes her so beautiful.
So, we advertised for her online to find a new home. Which we have done before but so far hadn't found anyone that we felt would be best for Izzy. We didn't want to just give her to anyone.
Then we got this email from a couple in Wine country. They live on an acre, Izzy would be an indoor/outdoor cat(which she had been when we first got her) and would be the sister of a four year old German Shepard. Seemed to be perfect. Yesterday we drove her to their house. What a pretty area. When we got there, they were just the sweetest couple. Both have been teachers, she is still teaching, he has retired. They have the biggest, most awesome tree in their back yard.........and gophers. Izzy can hunt to her heart's content. We think once she gets settled in she will love it. We felt very good about leaving her, as heartbreaking as giving a pet up can be.
Anyway, I just wanted to take this time to honor our pet "Izzy". We hope they will enjoy her as much as we did. We love you Izzy. Oh, and I almost forgot the best part. They said we could have parental visitation rights, we can come visit anytime we want. We can bring Corey, we can bring Addison, they said just stop by anytime. How great is that?
Well, I must go to help Michelle decorate the Christmas tree.
I'm not a cat person but Izzy is pretty cute! Sorry you had to let her go, but it sounds like she is going to be in her glory!
