Herbie transformed and found a home! Along with 40 other pets!
This is Herbie and he was brought to us in May of this year. We do not know Herbie’s history or why he was surrendered, but he was afraid and didn’t want human interaction. Some cats need time to decompress when they arrive so we gave him a few weeks in intake. Weeks turned into months, and we still couldn’t touch him. We were starting to get worried until we noticed that as long as his kennel stayed closed, he felt safe approaching us. He took his time, but eventually, we were able to feed him treats through the bars, and even pet him! We knew this was our chance to finally find him a home. We wanted to move him to the front so he could be around other cats, but didn’t want him to be overwhelmed in an open room. So, we gave him his own condo, but with a friend.
They helped each other come out of their shells and before we knew it Herbie was interacting with staff and finding himself a home.
Once a fractious, and fearful cat now sweet and loved in a home. We are so proud of Herbie and the transformation he has made and so grateful to his adopters for finally giving him a home to feel safe in.
Our sponsors this month are Select Bank, and we couldn’t help pets like Herbie without them. What to help your own Herbie? Stop by this week for our $50 Empty The Shelters adoption event!
