Story
Do you have a dog looking to adopt a gentle, timid, lazy cat? Then Puddin' is the potential BFF for them! The day we brought Puddin' home for fostering she would shake in fear around humans, and run to a high spot if we approached, but would rub against our large breed boxer mix if we left the room. By the time we brought her to a roaming room at HES, 4 weeks later, for adoption meet and greets, she was absolutely in love with our dog. She was constantly seeking attention by stroking her, laying beside her, and following her. Whenever a human entered the room though, the party would break up, but it would resume when we left. So adorable!
We do think over time, and it might take a few months, Puddin' will learn to completely trust humans and become more affectionate. Right now though she still sleeps most of the day, and comes out at night; normal for a cat who has been living outside on their own. But in the month she was with us she learned the feeding routine, litter box trained easily, learned her name when called, and no longer shook in fear when approached.
She does enjoy feline companions, running and tackling, and learning the routines of the house from her feline friends, remember she is still a juvenile. She is gaining strength and bravery shown in her nightly zoomies, and exploring the home when we have settled down for the night.
Warning though, she isn't the most agile cat! When bringing her home highly recommend moving those valuable vases, and other breakable items off the window sills and countertops for a while, just incase she runs in fear to a high spot. She is an absolute klutz! But she really likes her high-hidy spaces. She would really like one of those cool wall-climbing units that allow her to get over your head! Or a really tall cat tower!
She has a lot to learn about humans, but she will blossom with the perfect patient human .... with a large lazy dog ;) .
