Donna & Marie

My story

Donna & Marie were rescued after someone passed away. We were called in to help with cats that were left behind. We found the girls living together in a yard kennel, a shed-type fenced in. They were vetted and well fed, but living a no-frills life in captivity. They depended on each other for companionship and a sense of security. They were not afraid of people, but had seemingly been awhile since anyone interacted with them. We took them into foster where it took some time to gain their trust and build their confidence. They just huddled together under their blankets when someone entered their room. On camera, we could see them emerge when they were alone. We gave them the time they needed to decompress, then we began the process of rehabbing them socially. Their foster has spoiled them with good food and treats, catnip, more toys then they've ever seen, comfy cat beds and window seats. Learning all these things are for them to enjoy, has opened a whole new world that they have embraced. They have warmed up to people and enjoy playtime, petting and brushing. They still get nervous at times and will need a calm, quiet environment with someone who is patient and can continue to build up their self esteem. They are very sweet girls who never knew their worth, but will be a true blessing as loyal companions. Donna is the gorgeous gray tabby with the most amazing crystal green eyes. Marie is the beautiful calico of rich colors, she only has half a tail for reason unknown. They are fixed and fully vetted, well mannered, litter box trained. We are uncertain of their age, adults estimated possibly 5+ years old.
