My story

Meet Moonshine – The Ultimate Dog-Cat CompanionMoonshines story is one of resilience, love, and second chances. She arrived at her foster home heavily pregnant and presumed to be feral—but from the moment she stepped out of her trap, she proved everyone wrong. With a single meow and affectionate head bumps, Moonshine made it clear she was full of love and trust.Petite in size but overflowing with affection, Moonshine quickly earned the nickname dog-cat for her loyal, people-focused personality. She follows her foster family from room to room, comes when called, and loves being part of daily life. She adores strong pets, happily flopping onto her back for belly rubs, and enjoys curling up beside her humans on the couch—close, but not clingy.Moonshine gave birth to four beautiful kittens and, in an act of incredible compassion, also took in three orphaned neonates as her own. She has been a devoted, nurturing mama to all seven, showing just how special her heart is.She may prefer a home where she is the center of attention, especially now that she is ready to be pampered herself. While cautious around resident animals—understandably so, as a protective mom—she has been known to get along with community cats before her rescue.Moonshine deserves a forever home with kind, responsible humans who will shower her with love and never let her down again. She has been through a lot, yet remains the sweetest, most affectionate girl. If you are looking for a gentle soul with the loyalty of a dog and the heart of a hero, Moonshine is your girl. If you are interested in adopting a CAWS pet, please fill out an online application at https://caws.org/adoption-applicationJune 6, 2025, 6:58 am
