Did you see the Winter Olympics? Did you notice that I was not there? I was a young aspiring ice dancer - tiny but talented - praised by everyone who saw me skate in my little Siberian village. I was headed for the Olympic trials, hoping to represent Russia in Vancouver. Alas, I had an accident. I fell badly on the ice. My ear and face were frostbitten. I broke a couple of teeth. Someone found me all alone in a snowbank. Suddenly I had no fame and glory; I just needed to survive.

Please forgive me if I'm a bit shy. I am still the small, sweet tortie girl that I have always been. But it's not easy to go from acclaim and possible fame to a kennel! Someday, perhaps, I'd like to dance and skate again - but only on your kitchen floor. Never again ice and frostbite. And I'd rather be a tortie than in a tutu. I saw the Russian dancers who made it to Vancouver - they had leaves in their skate shoes! Oh my! I'm ready to be ordinary Valintina - a lap cat, a tiny girl, a sweet friend to sweet people. I'm a little battered from my accident, but I am still my same loving little self.

Love me? Would you love me? I'll tell you a secret - I like to sleep under the bed covers with people. Would you let me do that? I think I'm recovering just talking to you about myself. I am feeling good. See this feathery toy? It matches my colors nicely, don't you think? It's my comfort right now, but I know that I need my people. People who will love me for my good heart and my little purr. People who don't care that I never won a medal. People who might let me sit in their laps and sleep under their covers - and, four years from now, let me watch the ice dancers again.

I am Valintina. I am goodhearted. See my bright eyes watching everything and hoping for a safe, warm future. Would you bring me that safe warm future? At your place? With you? I am just a tiny dancer, and I need a home. That's really all there is, I think. Oh, do rescue me for forever - only $100 takes away my loneliness - and yours, too.

PS: I currently reside at THE SHELTER (not in foster care). If you can't stop in but would like to know more about me, please call 651-642-5900, ext.3. Thanks!
