Pinky's Story

Pinky is a very special cat that needs a very special adopter. She was returned to the rescue in May 2025. She is semi-feral and spent the first 6-7 months avoiding people. In that time, she did come out to look out windows and snooze on the bed in the sun. Beginning in December, she began seeking out her foster mom for attention. She would flop on the floor, show her bully, and purr away. She also really enjoys Churu. <br/><br/>Pinky is welcome to stay and will be loved in her foster home indefinitely. But, her foster mom does care for many other foster cats, so we wanted to give her the opportunity to have a home where she can receive more attention. Pinky will likely regress if moved and probably hide again for months. She will need a confined space where she cannot hide anywhere dangerous. She will also not show well, so she would have to be adopted based on trust. <br/><br/>Pinky will need a quiet and calm home with no children. She needs to be an only cat or live with non-aggressive cats. We do not know how she would be with dogs, so we recommend a home without dogs. In other words, she will do best in with a cat-savvy family who will not pressure her for affection. We are also open to a longer term (indefinite) foster situation for the right family. <br/><br/>Again, Pinky is just fine and loved where she is! We just want to give her the opportunity for even more love.
