When you take in a foster cat, there is never a guarantee of how they will act around other pets. When Rachel Graham took in Birdie, she hoped the adult cat would get along well with her dog, Hazel. Birdie was timid and scared. Then the fireworks started. A dog visiting that day whined and appeared frightened. Birdie’s maternal instinct must have been activated, as she got right up and began comforting the large male dog. @rachelgrahamr excuse me while I cry myself to sleep tonight Birdie came from a feral colony and is pretty skittish, but she immediately stepped up when she saw the dog crying about the fireworks show on July 4 ♬ Almost forgot that this was the whole point – Take my Hand Instrumental – AntonioVivald Birdie and the dog had not officially been introduced at that point. She was from a feral colony and had been skittish earlier that day. The dog was visiting that and doesn’t live with Rachel. Watching the interaction made Rachel teary-eyed. The foster cat is in a new environment. She’s not sure of things on her own, but she sensed she was needed. Since then, Birdie and Rachel’s dog, Hazel, have become best friends. They spend their days bird watching together. If Rachel isn’t careful, Birdie the cat might become a foster fail. She appears to offer emotional support and companionship to Hazel. @rachelgrahamr The fastest and more adorable of friends #foster #fostercat #dogandcat #goldenretriever #irishsetter #goldenirish #adoptme ♬ original sound – ˚꩜ .ᐟ Emma Rachel has other cats. For a while, she was hearing cabinets opening and closing and thought she had a ghost. Then she caught Dust deftly opening the cabinet and sneaking inside for some peace. Dust will hide in the cabinets for hours-long daily naps. Image from TikTok. It seems like there is an almost constant stream of animals coming in and out. Many of them are Hazel’s dog friends. They visit and play, and sometimes get cuddles from a foster cat. Rachel fosters a large number of cats, many of whom are playful kittens. Please share if you think Rachel should make Birdie a foster fail. You can find the source of this story’s featured image here.
