ACL cats and other floofs

Meet Susie. Our FOSTER cat.
She’s somewhere between 1-2 years, has a cold, and was showing
signs of depression and shutting down in the shelter, but was
otherwise described as sweet. So we decided to foster her for a
few weeks, get her healthy and more socialized. Just brought her
home and she’s shown some positive signs already, like leaning
into cheek rubs, and arching her back and lifting her tail when
I pet her. To be honest, she’s not my favorite coloring, but
something about her called out to my heart.
She ate some wet food right after stepping out of the carrier,
and is now sleeping (and snoring) in the igloo.
Please send mojo for her quick recovery, and that we can help
her find a forever home.
P.S. Yes, it’s *possible* that we might be a foster fail and
keep her, but she is younger than I’d like at this stage of our
lives. Time will tell. Mia will have some say in the matter of
course.
The close up is at home in the igloo. The other photo was taken
at the shelter.

Hello, Susie! I hope you feel better very very soon and that Mia
is kind to you.

Aw, Susie. I'm sorry you didn't like it at the shelter. I hope
you quickly learn that ACL's home is a nice, warm, safe place,
and that you and Mia become good friends.

She’s a tiny little thing, but I’m not sure her weight. Small
feet. She has mixed-length fur, kind of like a lion - longer
around the face and neck but her body is maybe just slightly
longer around her belly than a short haired cat. We’re
disappointed that she doesn’t have a big fluffy tail! Oh well,
we’re fostering, right?!
She still has a really bad cold. Lots of snorting and snoring so
no introductions are planned yet. Have a follow up appointment
with the shelter vet on 2/14.
But, she’s doing really well. Turing into a love bug purr
monster. The attached photos were taken after having her about
30 hours, including being at work time. First one she’s
snuggling up against my torso, and she seems to be a bit of a
ham with the camera. Second she’s using my foot as a pillow.
Third is showing ecstasy when being brushed.
She is a cutey pie. I hope to be able to let her out in the
guest room soon. Even with some padding put down, my body can’t
take much more sleeping on the floor with her! But I do it so
she has company and she learns she’s safe. 😊
PS, the last pic is at the correct angle! She was leaning into
the brush.

Hi Susie! What a cutie! Mojo for feeling better and getting
comfortable with nice humans.

[member=24]kkt[/member] - she’s very comfortable with at least
one particular human being! She slept snuggled up to me for part
of the night. Purrs a lot. Loves being brushed and scratched.
Still super congested but she sneezed a couple times and it
seems like her breathing improved after.
She has a habit of sticking her tongue out (see photo posted
yesterday), not sure if it’s related to the cold, but when I
made kissy sounds at her she came up and gave me a very wet kiss
when she smashed her face into mine. 😸

Let Susie out into the guest bedroom last night. She slept on
the bed with me on and off.
This was taken tonight, before we took a little nap together.

Acl, she’s lovely and I strongly suspect Susie will be a failed
foster. You’re so good to her, even sleeping on the floor!!

Dear Susie,
You've clearly got ACL wrapped around your little paw, so now
you need to get to work on Mia. I recommend being patient and
sweet and not trying to fight her. You've got this, new friend!
Sincerely,
The Facebiter's Human

Dear Mia,
You have to like this one, okay? It's not optional.
Sincerely,
The Facebiter's Human
