I promised you a big announcement!

Want another reason to participate in PetWalk this Sunday? Need a new reason to sponsor a walker on team Lost Our Home?

Meet Scioscia! (Pronounced Sosha) Named after this SciosciaScioscia was my Valentine's gift from my husband, so I let him pick the name. Todd is obsessed with Angels baseball and he really loves Mike Scioscia as a coach.

We adopted her during the PetSmart adoption weekend! Right away her personality showed when we opened the cage to look at her. She was instantly rubbing on our hands, purring and playing with us. I fell in love instantly.

When we brought her home, big sister Nunu was a little weary.

The last kitty Nunu lived with was my sister's cat Princess Coco Chanel and she wasn't the nicest kitty of the bunch. Nu is still trying to figure out this little firecracker.

Scioscia is really winning everyone over. Our first order of business was giving her a bath. No kitty smells that great when they had to spend the day in their cage. While she wasn't to thrilled with the bath part, she really enjoyed the snugging while I warmed her up.She is such an incredible little kitty. You just look at her and she starts to purr. She is the happiest when she can curl up on your lap and take a long nap.

When I told Scioscio about Petwalk and Lost Our Home, she immediately tried to get online and make some donations.
Then she realized she can't type very well and doesn't have a bank account. So she asked me to tell all of you how happy she is that she found a new home to live in, how nice it is to know someone is going to feed and love her for the rest of her life and how wishes that all of the other kitties and doggies looking for homes could get them.

We are now just six days away from our walk at Petwalk and we have reached the 84% mark of our fund raising goal. We only have to raise $825 more to reach this awesome goal we set for ourselves. Only $800 more, it is nothing! We can totally do this!

As I am typing the blog this morning, Nunu is running around the house playing with all of her toys (noisy balls just make her go nuts) and Scioscia is curled up on my lap purring blissfully. I know how much I love this kitties and I know that all of the pet owners who are going through financial difficulties and are struggling between buying groceries for themselves and keeping their pets healthy, love their animals just as much. With your help, we can eliminate the worry of where the next bag of pet food is going to come from or how they are going to pay for a vet bill. With your help, we can continue to foster these loving pets who have been abandoned and are just looking for a new home. These times are tough and if we all just band together and give a little, we can change the lives of pets and pet owners.

Make a pet as happy as Scioscia.
Please follow this link to the Lost Our Home Team Page for the PetSmart Petwalk. You can click "donate to the team" or pick anyone of our walkers to sponsor.

I hope everyone had a great three-day weekend!
