LOCUST DALE, Va. (WUSA) - A sleek Siamese cat named Ozzie is busy celebrating the 'good life' during this new year, secure in his forever home with a Washington, D.C., woman named Amy who could hardly wait to hold him.

Ozzie's good fortune is symbolic for the Siamese Cat Rescue Center: in December, the group, along with its four sister organizations, marked a major milestone: the 20,000 rescue of a Siamese cat.

Yes, that's 20,000 Siamese cats, rescued after facing uncertain futures after former owners no longer could, or would, care for them. 20,000 Siamese cats, all hoping to find the same situation as four-year-old Ozzie, in loving homes where their beauty and intelligence are prized along with their affectionate natures.

“Hobie (formerly Brinks) is just a darling. He sits, stays, shakes, and has a perfect ‘down,’ when not distracted, of course! He's learning to ‘fetch the paper’ and to ‘wait’ before charging through a doorway. He's playful, curious, very smart, and just a regular love. He loves big dogs, and now that he has his rabies vaccine, he is going to K9 Divine's farm two days a week, which is heaven for him. We also love exploring the woods behind our house and the Archbold Glover Trail. Hobie is now a part time lawyer and loves going to my husband’s law office.
