Help save Twiggy.

I don't know who actually might stumble on this but its worth a try. If you are located in the MN/IA region please greatly consider homing a sweet, young dilute calico cat. She's a special case as she is only seven/eight months old and pregnant, and has an injury to her right front leg that causes her to limp.

Twiggy is currently underweight though she is loyally being fed by the work campers Bob and Barb, as well as Heather, the young woman whose campsite Twiggy has deemed home. She is sweet and beautiful, being mostly tabby-striped blue and white with a couple of cute spots of faded orange on her belly. Her eyes are striking gold and are clear of any trouble. Her ears are dirty but unlike most animals out her, she seems to have no problem with fleas. Twiggy is too sweet to simply call animal control on.

The past couple of days she has happily endured children pulling on her, carrying her, and examining her. She has not bitten or scratched even when her bad leg is roughly handled. She loves to talk and is better trained than a dog; last night she walked with me right at my heel, stopping only to visit a couple of passing teens. Twiggy would wander a bit but if called, she would snap right back at attention and return to walking near my feet. She loves having beneath her chin scratched and is very playful. If someone is willing too look past what she needs financially, they will find a cat that with some TLC will be ready for a new home.

Please email insaneanime@hotmail.com if interested in placing her and her kittens. I will be willing to meet anyone traveling halfway and though I don't have much cash, I will donate what I can to her care. Twiggy is loving and with a good bath (she tends to roll around in the dirt when begging for attention) she'll fit into any home. She's already proven she is exceedingly tolerant of children and has not expressed any undue fear or aggression towards the dogs that she has passed while making her rounds on the campsite.
