Orange Fizz


I'd make you so very happy if you picked me today. No, I don't do all that hyper, razzle-dazzle business at the front of the cage trying to demand your attention. That's just not my style. I don't believe in forcing things; it just doesn't seem like that's the right way for me to find my forever person. But if you could just pause a few minutes ... open my door, extend your hand, scratch my head. Then my regal, stately exterior will begin to melt and I'll start to show you some of the wonderful things about me. My rumbling purr. The shy head butts. My energy as I chase a toy. And pretty soon, you'll recognize that all the stored-up love I have would be my special gift to you.
