Mocha (in foster)

Mocha<br/>The interviewer lady (IL) sent a check-up email to my foster mom to see how I was doing. My foster mom (FM) told her that things are pretty much the same as they were in July. You may recall that my owner surrendered me to HSHC because I was terrified of everything! The other cat, the dog, the children, and even the adults frightened me into hiding. Now I am a 9-year-old, black-and-white, DLH female kitty who never learned social graces as a kitten. However, my peace of mind and level of contentment have greatly improved since moving in with FM and family. As you might expect, I continue to despise change. For example, cutting my nails, forcing me into a cat carrier, exposing me to other animals, or small children. I spend most of my time in my bedroom or hiding behind the couch. The exception would be feeling safe enough to join the family in the evening. Things I have learned to love are dinner time, treats(!), belly rubs and brushing sessions with FM. I continue to prefer dry food over wet and plenty of clean, cool water. FM says that I am "a pretty chill cat," and she knows I want to be relaxed and confident with people. It will take a patient person who understands my fears, who will give me the time and space to settle in. A quiet home, with patient humans, and everyone is 10 or older, is a must. I would appreciate being the only 4-legged family member. FM says I am not a trouble, for sure! 12-14-25
