About Dixie

Meet Dixie and her best friend, Aurora. These two gorgeous young black cats are ready to leave their past behind after coming from a hoarding situation. They're learning what a loving home can be like, and we hope to find them a forever home together. Dixie and Aurora share a strong bond and can often be found playing or snuggling together, finding security in each other as they navigate their new environment. They might be a bit shy or skittish at first, but don’t let that fool you; with a little patience, affection, and time, they will warm up and show their true personalities. These young cats are lively and inquisitive, having already made great strides in their foster home. They thrive in quieter settings where understanding adopters can help them blossom and build trust. Adopting them together not only keeps their friendship intact but also gives you a front-row seat to their journey of learning to trust and love. If you're interested in meeting Dixie, she can be found at Petco in Redondo Beach (537 N PCH) on Sundays from 12:00–3:00 p.m. You can also call Kathy at (310) 406-6985 for more information or to arrange a meeting.
