Sachmo = Survivor: Season 1 and forever

Posted on 28 April 2012

Sachmo is a neighborhood tom-cat.  But he is not just some random neighborhood tom-car, but an abandoned, shot, survived, been through surgery and still, unknown why, worshiping human attention.

The story is this: Someone, somewhere, somehow abandoned this well-fed and snow white tom-cat. Willing or not, he migrated to a livelier place and misery thought him how to live outside and how, as a true Survivor, to be able to handle everything that daily life on the street offers him. So far – bad, but it can always be worse. In order to be harder, Mister X appears whose hobby is to shoot animals on the street, even not with the aim to kill them, but just for the reason to enjoy their suffering reactions. So because Sachmo is good, ex-domestic, used to people, and would never understand human wickedness, he often goes near people, including near Mr. X, wholeheartedly believing that people bring the 2 best things in the world – food and tenderness. Everyone likes him, but no one takes him home. So one day Mr. X decides to make Sachmo his victim. Shot in his front paw and in some terrible pain, he keeps the paw folded and does not step on it for days, but keeps the fight for survival. Random people took pity on him – they bring him to the vet, and when they hear the amount of money it would take for Sachmo to be healthy again, they decide to bring him back in the neighborhood the way he is. That is when Sachmo’s rescuer appears – a person that has saved many animals in need. This time, Sachmo is lucky.

 

Sachmo goes through a surgery, his paw is saved, the recovers in the home of his rescuer, then a second surgery takes place and after all these misadventures Sachmo the Survuvor is ready, he is ready for his own home, where he would not be in danger never again.  Everything has recovered very well, the boy is healthy, neutered, and anxiously awaiting his own home.

Personality – just ask out it, some well-deserved praises come up. In his foster home, Sachmo shows that he has no idea what problems are and never causes them. Actually this tom-cat has an incredibly well-balanced personality. He likes a chair and would lie down there for hours, without molesting anyone. If you touch him, he immediately starts purring. If you put him on your knees – he would lie there peacefully. He does not get impressed by dogs, he doesn’t nag with other cats, he immeadiately understood how to use a covered cat toilet… He’s just perfect!

This wonderful, endearing, calm, talkative, huggable, smart, funny… tom-cat IS LOOKING FOR A HOME, which he would light up with his optimism and love towards people, despite all they have caused him. Whoever opens his heart for him would not make a wrong decision. Good luck, Sachmo!

Snow White

Posted on 28 March 2012

Hello, my name is SnowWhite and I’m very pleased to meet you! I am a beautiful, smart and very kind cat. I think I am 4 years old, I have a microchip, vaccines, a passport and I’m even neutered. The kind people who gave me a shelter say that I am just too good and patient. I think that is partly a result of my very difficult past. But also it is because I have not 1 heart like you all, but 2!

Because of my two hearts I have learnt to love everyone. I am very patient with people, dogs, cats… Dogs are easy – you don’t even need to be mean to them! Just stay out of their food and don’t bother them, and they will do the same.

 

Anyway I prefer hugs and pets. If possible – all the time. If not – whenever possible. Also I like to cuddle up somewhere warm. I also like tasty kibble. Honestly, since they took me in I gained almost as much weight as I used to weigh. But I think it suits me better now – I used to be all bones before, when I was always hungry.

From my bad times I will always have one memory – the tip of my right ear is frozen off. I nearly died that night, it was so cold… But the people here say that having a pink ear and a pink nose is charming. It’s so nice to be called charming! I am loved and cared for here, this is something new to me, but I can also teach them some things. For example – how to pet a cat:

Like it? I learnt this trick back when there was no one to scratch my ear, when there was no one to say “What a good girl you are, SnowWhite!”. I may not have a home, but I am lucky to be here with my fosters.  I am optimistic – I think my people will find me in the end. After all – I wasn’t born with 2 hearts for nothing. When they see me, they will recognize me. I just need to be patient. And I have all the patience in the world!

Topcho

Posted on 13 March 2012

Hello there! Let me introduce myself – they call me Topcho, Topche, Toparcho and “Hey little one”.  My foster mom says that now I’m Toparcho and I’ll become Topper, like Topper Harley, and I’m charming like him. I don’t know who he is, but I trust her.

I don’t remember much of my story. They say that my real mommy Sarah appeared suddenly in a random area in Sofia with 5 small puppies, all black in color. After that, only she, my two siblings and I were left. They say we were like small black pearls and we looked alike as water drops. We lived in a dangerous place and one really kind woman pitied us and took us to a doggie hotel. My two siblings were adopted fast so only mommy and I left. Then my current foster mom decided to look after me at her home for a bit until I was big enough.

This is how one day they took me with a car and drove me somewhere. I remember that. It was warm there and two 4-legged sisters from our species met me, but didn’t like me at all, and one man who, on the other hand, liked me so much that he kept on hugging me. I immediately went exploring his apartment. I found the box with puppy toys and scattered them around. I am certain they were there for me. I found where they took the food out of. Then I peed in the pampers which I know surprised them and I had them. After that I started convincing the sisters that I’m really cool and I admit they’re my bosses. The smaller one was convinced quite easily and we play together now – we sting each other, we wrestle, we grumble. When I get enough sleep and then get bored, I immediately go to share that with her. I prefer not to deal with the other one.

What else can I say, I eat with a huge appetite and I grow. They say I’m calm and reasonable, whatever that means. I explored everything in this house and I am impatiently waiting for them to start taking me out for walks.

Well, that’s about it, can’t think of anything else. Anyone who likes totally black puppies with a liiiitle bit of light spotting on the chin; do you want me to become your best friend? Call me, I’ll be waiting.

GIA – legally blond

Posted on 10 March 2012

The story is always the same; the well-doers almost always are the same people too. They use all their love to fix the untwined destinies of the suffering animals. They don’t pass by; they cure, protect and find warmth, the warmth of home and mostly the human warmth. The story is always the same. Only the participating victims are different, but always suffering from human cruelty and violence.

Sometimes however fate of the future is different. Although hesitantly, luck sometimes smiles. Destiny blinked to Gia too – a random stray dog with the most unusual energy store. One blonde in the dog’s world, with a dark muzzle for magnificence. She is unabatedly playful, with a favorite preference for shoes and gloves, but with a real noble character. Gia is obedient on a leash, but when free, she has no inkling of commands. You probably guess right that this is just a skill on purpose so that all the attention is given to her. To learn, she needs just a little bit of effort from her side, but heaps of human love.

Gia is a real stylish icon – average height and weight, vaccinated, microchipped and neutered. She lives in a foster home and expects the applause of destiny for having a leading star role in someone’s warm home and heart!

Michael is waiting for the bestest forever home with lively people who have a sense of humour and a large backyard for him to explore. He is not made for a quiet indoor life and needs new and interesting experiences to be happy.
