Audrey

Description

Have you ever looked at someone and thought "I can fix them"? If so, Audrey is the gal for you. One year old Audrey needs someone patient to show her how to be loved. This impossibly soft, fluffy grey lady wants desperately to be loved, but she is afraid of hands and is still suspicious of people. Audrey was surrendered as a feral to WHS and when she had surprise kittens she was transferred to AHS to raise her babies and see if she could acclimate to indoor life. All her babies have been adopted out and it's Audrey's turn to find her forever family. Audrey loves attention, on her terms. The best tactic we have found to give her love is to hold an object like a cat toy or can of cat food out and allow her to rub herself on your hands, arms and legs. If you're quick, you can pet her hips and tail while she's looking away, but if she sees your hands you will get a smack! She purrs and flops around on your feet and definitely wants some careful, slow, predictable attention. She's come so far in just a few weeks in her current foster home - with consistent atttention and patience, we're sure that she will learn how to be loved and accept attention. Audrey's ideal home is a quiet household of patient, cat-savvy adults. Another friendly, but chill cat would likely go over well as she has seemed very interested in other cats in her foster home (though she hasn't yet been introduced - that's a them problem, not a her problem though). Older teens would be okay, but Audrey is too unpredictable for young children. It is unknown how she will do with dogs; we suspect a dog-free home would be best for her. If you have patience to give and room for a "project" kitty in your live, consider giving Audrey a chance. All of our cats come spayed or neutered, microchipped, and with age-appropriate vaccinations. Young cats have an adoption fee of $175. If you would like to apply to be a forever home for this cat, please fill out a statement of interest at www.alternativehumanesociety.com. Unless otherwise indicated, all our cats and kittens are best suited for indoor-only life.
