Cartman, 11, is finding a measure of happiness and peace again after having to come back to PAWS Atlanta because his owner was seriously ill. It has been a difficult situation for both of them, and returning to the shelter after a lifetime in a home is a very hard thing.
Fortunately, a wonderful foster stepped up to take a very sad Cartman into her home. He keeps a low profile, stealthily biding his time under the bed or out of sight during the day and coming out to eat and explore overnight when the fosters are sleeping.
His foster says Cartman seems to really like catnip, treats, feather wands, watching the birds out the window and having a safe place where he can relax.
Having some peace and quiet to explore on his terms has been hugely helpful.
His foster has been able to get Cartman to come close to her but he’s not yet ready for petting.
