FLUX's Story
MEET Flux! Flux is a young male teenager who has spent more time with other cats than humans, which means he will initially be scared and shy in any new home that he goes to. He was living outside in a very large colony with many other cats. Although he had a feeder who cared for her, he has not known life inside a home and will be nervous in new environments. Due to his younger age along with displaying curious and social behaviors, we put him on a pathway for adoption. He still requires time and work with a new adopter to help him overcome his fear of the human world. The key to making cats like Flux comfortable in your home is patience. Community Cats usually follow the Rule of 3: it can take these cats 3 days to decompress, 3 weeks to start settling in, and 3 months (OR MORE) to feel at home and show their personality. Here are a few things you can expect from your Community Cat: *Hiding: for the best transition, we highly recommend confining your new cat to a crate in an active part of the home where they can learn about their new surroundings but still feel secure. A small space such as a guest room or extra bathroom are also good safe places. [We would be happy to send you home with a loaner crate, at no charge] *Transition: After living outside, being in a home can be scary to a Community Cat, so remember to be patient. *Hands-on work: Most cats love food and using stinky wet food and Churu treats is a great way for you to bond with you new cat. Using a back scratcher to pet your cat while you're giving them tasty food will help them to associate petting with good things. Flux is currently up to date on all vaccinations, has been neutered, microchipped and seen by our vet team. For more information on Flux or any other animal currently residing at the Animal Rescue League of Boston, please call us at 617-426-9170. We welcome adopters from NH, RI, CT, and NY. However, we will be unable to facilitate same day adoptions due to state regulated paperwork requirements.
