Last spring we were thrilled to write about the adoption of Mitzi, a very shy and traumatized cat who had been rescued from a hoarding situation and spent 5 months hiding in the basement of her foster home before gradually getting used to people.
Mitzi fit in well in her new home right from the beginning and has continued to progress into a happy lap cat. Her family recently sent this update to let us know how far this sweet girl has come:
You would not recognize Mitzi these days! She's full of piss and vinegar and is quite a little instigator. She runs all over the house, jumping over stuff and giving Buddy a run for his money. She greets Ed at the door and falls over on her side, then rolls over on her back and lets him rub her tummy. Honestly, what a little prize she's turned out to be. She's very gregarious with us and certain family members but is still quite shy with strangers. We can't believe the difference from her first day here to now. There's hope for all animals, with a little patience, and we are so happy Mitzi came home with us.
This is one more example of the great work PFA foster homes do with timid and frightened cats to enable them to be adopted and become happy house pets.
We are so happy that Mitzi found a wonderful home where she is very happy and very much loved!
