Meet Pixie!

Pixie (aka The Pixelater) came to us in August 2021. 

When she came into rescue, this poor little girl was in an extremely distressed state, having been found starving and collapsed on the street.

Pixie is an eleven year old lady who, despite being rather set in her ways, has such a sweet little face and the most beautiful markings; she's our dainty cinnamon and butterscotch spice girl.

She likes nothing better than snoozing the day away in the sun or in front of the fire at night. She can be grumpy and she doesn't like to be fussed - she will grump and growl at times, if disturbed, but it is all bluff as she never bites or strikes. We found that reverse psychology works with her,  so we leave her to enjoy her quota of grumpiness and sleep and then she will seek us out for head bumps and tasty treats - she will happily settle on your lap and snooze!  

She likes her toys and playtime with us. Pixie loves play fighting and mawing your hand. One of her favourite things to do is to hide under tables and chairs and to attack round corners. 

We do everything at Pixie’s pace, but we are conscious that she will, if she can, sneak off and sleep on the bed all day and night. So, to help with trust building and re-socialisation, we try to keep her around us most of the time by restricting her from the bedroom in the day. When we do this, we always make sure she has access to quiet safe areas in the rest of the house for when she wants some alone time. 

Pixie sleeps on the bed at night and is good as gold, never moving till we rise.  She is absolutely no trouble - except she has not got the hang of the scratching poles yet! 

We never forget the state she was found in, so her progress in learning to trust humans and to play again, is truly amazing. She will benefit from a patient owner with a quiet home and probably no children, certainly not very young ones. We are not sure if she could cope with other cats at this time, so a house where she would be the only cat is preferable. She does seem to have a delicate tummy and benefits from access to grass to help remove bile on occasions - she has been examined and been given the all clear by our vet in regard to this.
