Hibiscus

My story

Like the flower, Hibiscus is beautiful and complex!Hibiscus came to EHS from an overcrowded municipal shelter when she was pregnant. She gave birth to her wonderfully chaotic kitten (Ginger), who was then adopted. Hibiscus thought she’d found her forever home when she was first adopted, but it wasn’t the right fit for this sweet girl. Hibiscus is now back at EHS, and is looking for her second chance at happily ever after.ABOUT HIBISCUS- At shelter- Hibiscus was in foster when she gave birth, and was adopted after her kitten (Ginger). She was unfortunately returned, and is looking for her forever home, once again.- During her time in foster, Hibiscus became comfortable and showed off her quacking sounds while she played with wand toys. Her fosters nicknamed her “Ducky.”- Hibiscus’s love language is quality time! Approach her slowly and sit with her and talk to her about life; she’s a great listener!- Hibiscus is a skittish cat who has had minimal experience with humans.- Hibiscus is currently enrolled in EHS’s socialization program, where dedicated volunteers are working to help her become more comfortable around people.- She gives hisses initially during interactions, but relaxes with soft speaking tones and slow blinks.- She enjoys cuddling and grooming her feline friends. She’s very protective of her besties!- Some skittish cats may remain reserved, while others may express their trust and affection in a variety of ways.- Hibiscus is an empath! She picks up on how her feline friends are feeling and protects them from the “scary” humans.- Once comfortable, Hibiscus loves to play! Wand toys, string toys, laser points, anything she can chase and show off her hunting skills.- Hibiscus is a toothless girl, which made her realize the joys of Churu tubes and wet food. Though, don’t be fooled, she loves her dry food! It just may be the key to winning her over…- Hibiscus isn’t fond of hands yet, but enjoys being pet with the back-scratcher around her face, when approached slowly. And if you have some churu on your finger, she just might be brave enough to lick it.- Hibiscus is spayed, microchipped, dewormed, flea-treated, SNAP-tested for FIV/FeLV, and is up to date on core vaccinations.HIBISCUS’S IDEAL HOME- Hibiscus would prefer to go to a home with another feline-friendly, well-mannered cat.- A skittish cat will benefit from a calm, quiet environment, preferably without smal
