Aurora 5/20/25

OUR KIX CRITTER OF THE WEEK IS AURORA!!

Aurora is a sweet, two-year-old cat who has been at the shelter since October 2023. She’s got a big personality and loves to chat—she’s a vocal girl and isn’t shy about sharing her thoughts! Whether you’re talking to her or just hanging out, she’s always happy to “talk back” and let you know how she’s feeling.

When she’s not having a conversation, Aurora is all about relaxing. She loves curling up in her comfy bed or soaking up the sun. She’s definitely a laid-back kitty who enjoys her peace and quiet, but she also likes to be close to her people when she’s in the mood for attention.

Aurora is a bit selective about her feline friends. She’s okay with other cats as long as they’re not too in-your-face. If they respect her space, she’s happy to coexist with them.

Aurora is spayed, up to date on all vaccines, FeLV/FIV tested, and microchipped to ensure her safety.

She’s ready to find a home where she can relax in a sunny spot, enjoy some quiet time, and chat with her humans whenever the mood strikes. If you’re looking for a sweet, vocal kitty who enjoys a peaceful life, Aurora might just be the one for you! HER ADOPTION FEE IS ONLY $25.00!!! BECAUSE SHE IS OUR KIX CRITTER!!

The List for Monday, May 19th 2025

Welcome to The List,

Tom Bergeron is back, But not on the ballroom floor—he’s hosting Dancing with Sharks for Shark Week. Yes, real sharks. Yes, real dancing. No, this is not a fever dream. Expert divers will waltz underwater with actual sharks thanks to a world-class underwater choreographer. So basically… “So You Think You Can Swim.”

-----

Morgan Wallen Dropped a 37-Song Album on Friday. It’s called I’m the Problem, which honestly sounds like a therapy breakthrough. It’s a double album, it’s country, it’s rap, it’s…controversial. Especially the rap cover of a Keith Whitley song—because nothing says “classic country” like autotune and a trap beat. Swifties are still mad. So, mission accomplished?

-----

Sharpen your stakes and crank up the angst—the "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" reboot is happening, and they've found a new young slayer to team up with Sarah Michelle Gellar. Yep, Buffy’s back, and apparently she’s mentoring now, which means this girl’s about to get a crash course in slaying and sarcasm. The Hellmouth won’t know what hit it... but probably still ends in a dramatic slow-motion fight scene.

----

So here’s something straight out of a murder ballad—human remains were found near Taylor Swift’s Rhode Island mansion. Yeah. Real ones. Police say no foul play is suspected, and Swift’s team hasn’t commented. So either it’s a tragic coincidence… or the Cruel Summer just got way darker. Either way, cue the eerie piano music.

You can catch The List, weekday afternoon at 4:20 with Jonathan Knight. Only on Iowa’s BEST Country KIX 101.1
