I am a Kitty Cat from Jackson County in Southern  Indiana. I am so glad I am safe now, but I was really scared when I was alone in cold weather without anyone to care for me. Sending wishes that all other homeless pets are able to find somewhere nice to stay.

I was named Oscar Alvin Roddey after the Great-Grandpa of my primary caretaker, Miss Glenda Sue (Suzie).  My namesake used to own an auto repair garage in Houston, Indiana. I wish I had known him.  I came along to this family so close to 50 years after the day that their Papaw Oscar passed away in November 1964.

I relocated down south to Wake County in North Carolina in July 2015. It is a lot bigger than Houston, Indiana. I love the Tar Heel State and am happy to not have to deal with the bitter winters of the Midwest. I really appreciate that the sun shines so much here in the south.  I love to lounge and soak up rays of sun from my cat tree by the eastern window.  But, there is no place like home. We did not plan to stay here this long, but you know how life takes twists & turns & you have to go with the flow.

I do miss the small town charm of Houston, Indiana. Autumn in Jackson County, Indiana is simply amazing. So many pretty colored leaves all around. The natural beauty of Spring and Summer are awesome too. Winter in Indiana can be vicious, but I guess you learn to take the good with the bad. Suzie & I do hope to make it back to Houston, Indiana in 2024. Wish us Luck! In the meantime, there is an abundance of scenic beauty in North Carolina too. If you look for good things, you will find them.
