On a whim I mentioned to one of the staff that I am a professional writer, and asked if they needed help with the "descriptions" that show up on the website for dogs and cats looking for adoption. Turns out that they have someone who does the dogs, but don't have anyone for the cats!
Guess who is the official cat describer these days! I told my rescue cats, Wasabi and Ginger, about it and they fully approve. Now I work every Monday afternoon at the local center with a volunteer photographer, to take notes on each kitty's personality, looks, and hopefully, adoptability. By the way, I don't get to name the cats, that's done before I start work, but I do get to pet them, talk to them, and most of all, make them sound irresistible if you are looking to adopt.
Here's a few samples. . .sorry I can't seem to copy the photos of the kitties, but take my word for it, they are adorable.
Evelynn
Humane Society of Charlotte
Little Evelyn is technically described as a "dilute calico". In person, she is a delicious little pale gray and white kitty with almond shaped topaz-colored eyes and a winning way. At 11 weeks of age, Evelyn shows all the signs of becoming someone's very loving cat. Be prepared to want to give her a hug the minute you meet her.
