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 Wednesday, July 2nd 2025

Welcome to The List,

Well THAT escalated quickly. Keith Urban was doing an Aussie radio interview when someone asked how he feels about Nicole Kidman locking lips with Zac Efron onscreen. Next thing you know—click!—the Zoom call vanishes like my willpower near pizza. The hosts say Keith’s team bailed. But a source says “Keith didn’t hang up! It was a technical issue” Uh-huh. And I only watch Nicole’s movies for the plot.

-----

Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton might trade Hollywood for hay bales! Word is, they're finally serious about having a baby and raising it in Oklahoma, far away from TMZ and overpriced oat milk. Blake’s craving a little one, Gwen’s slowing down, and apparently a diaper bag might be in her future.

-----

Drama in the Diddy courtroom: the jury has reached a partial verdict after 12 hours, locking in four outta five charges—sex trafficking and transporting for prostitution. But that last racketeering count? Still marinating in the baby oil. Meanwhile, Diddy got emotional, whispered “love you” to his mom, and gave her the ol’ chest thump. Somewhere, someone’s making this into a Lifetime movie.

-----

J.Lo is sweating harder than me during allergy season. Rumor is Ben Affleck might air everything on a podcast with Matt Damon—including their messy breakup. Sources say Ben’s tired of false stories and may finally come out.  J.Lo’s nightmare? A “warts and all” tell-all. Honestly, if it’s called Good Will Dumping, I’m subscribing…immediately.

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