Cat Went from Living Outside, Blending into Landscape, to Running the House, Helping Other Cats and Kittens
A cat went from living outside, blending into the landscape, to running the house and helping other cats and kittens.
ChatonsOrphelinsMontrealA community cat had roamed a neighborhood for years, often blending into the background. He was scared of people, stealthily scrounging for food and shelter.After braving several brutal winters, he'd lost nearly both of his ears to frostbite. "He had been in the neighborhood as part of the landscape for a long time, and no one had sought help for him," Chatons Orphelins Montreal shared.A local animal rescuer noticed the cat's condition was deteriorating and took it upon herself to save him.
ChatonsOrphelinsMontrealWith a can of smelly fish and a humane trap, the street cat was finally secured. "He walked into the trap as soon as he smelled the food. He didn't fight or try to get out when the door closed behind him. He was starved and ready for some change."After about six years outdoors, he moved inside for the first time.
ChatonsOrphelinsMontrealThe cat, Mosey, was rough around the edges, with fresh scars on his nose and infected gums that made eating difficult. The rescue team at Chatons Orphelins Montreal took him in, treated him for all his ailments, and settled him into a foster home.After shaving off all the matted fur and receiving much-needed dental care, he perked up, and his appetite returned with a vengeance.
ChatonsOrphelinsMontreal"Even though he has few teeth left, he no longer struggles when he eats. He slowly came out of his shell and accepted pets from us. He never knew human affection until he came to us."It took his carers a few months of positive reinforcement and patience to gain his trust.
ChatonsOrphelinsMontrealAs he caught sight of the other cats in the house, his eyes lit up. Motivated by a desire to join them, he emerged from hiding to greet them."When he first came to us, he kept to himself all day, and his gaze was blank." Watching other kitties around him helped him realize he was safe. "He grew curious and started copying everything they did."
ChatonsOrphelinsMontrealHe began to purr when cuddled, and the fear in his eyes completely vanished. He explored the house with newfound confidence and started appreciating his comfy beds, toys, and all the amenities."He adores other cats and is super social with them. He just wants to be their friend."
ChatonsOrphelinsMontrealMosey is usually a "man of few words." Now that he's warmed up to his people, he expects to cuddle with them every evening, or he'll let out a few soft meows, his endearing way of asking for attention."In the morning, he waits for his humans by their bedroom door and stares at them until breakfast is served."
ChatonsOrphelinsMontreal"It's taken a while, but he has accepted kindness and help from his carers, become much calmer, and grown to enjoy pets and attention.""He is a sweet soul who loves to nap in his cardboard cabin, by the window, or in a cat tree with his friends. He's no longer wary of his surroundings and even rolls onto his back with his paws up in the air."
ChatonsOrphelinsMontrealMosey has recently befriended some foster kittens and couldn't be happier. Surrounded by these bundles of unbridled energy, he has rediscovered his inner kitten.He zooms around with them and cuddles up afterward. "He plays with them and gently bathes them like a caring big brother."
ChatonsOrphelinsMontrealAfter years on the streets, he's finally living the dream and ready to find a forever home - a place where he can feel safe and loved and share his days with other cats.
