Boba, Domestic Shorthair For Adoption In Sugar Land, Texas

Location:

Sugar Land, TX

Description:

Boba is the sweetest boy with a troubled past! He has had a very rough life in his short 2 years! Wedon’t know much about his life before coming to us at Furry Friends animal aid but we know it wasn’tgreat. When Boba was surrendered to a high kill shelter in October of 2022 the person who surrenderedhim stated that Boba was a stray on the streets in Houston his first year of life and then the personbrought him inside only to decide they could not handle as many cats as they had. So poor Boba wastaken to the high kill shelter where he was put straight onto death row! Luckily FFAA stepped in andpulled a miracle out of the hat 30 minutes before his dead line! Boba was terrified rightfully so! He wasso afraid of everyone and everything at the pound he would not let anyone touch him! Boba is safelywith his foster family now and he has let them know that he is not a mean or bad boy at all!! He is thesweetest, goofy boy when given the chance! Because of all he has gone though it takes him longer thanmost cats to warm up to new people and places. As of now his foster mom can pick up cuddle love andgive belly rubs but other humans, he knows can pet him and strangers cause him to hide.Boba has so much love to give to the person who will take the time and allow him to adjust to newenvironments and people in his own time. It took a few weeks for Boba to appreciate any humancontact without flinching and being afraid. He spent a month in his kennel decompressing from thetrauma of his past and adjusting to his new foster home. He showed he is much more comfortablearound other cats than he is people but started to “talk” to foster mom at night when the house wasquiet and FM was trying to sleep! She didn’t mind though these conversations helped boba adjust andgot him ready to come out of the kennel! Once he openly accepted touch and sought out humancontact, the doors to Boba’s kennel started being left open. After some coaxing and reassurance fromthe resident cats Boba was free in the bed room! He went into hiding but as always came out for food!And after a few days surprised everyone with the amount of love he could not wait to share! Bobaclimbed into bed with his foster mom… curled up next to her and allowed her to pet him all over andeven touch the belly!! Toe beans and belly were all presented to foster mom to touch! Now if fostermom lays down in bed he comes up for cuddles and he is sleeping in the bed when no one is around. Hestill chooses not to leave the bedroom very often and has made his kennel his safe space. If anythingbecomes to much for him or he just wants a break from the other cats he will go into his kennel andenjoy some alone time.He adores other cats greets them with chirps and coo’s but is a submissive boy if the other cat is todominate Boba will hide instead of standing up for himself. Being submissive he should be good withany other cats; the people will just need to make sure Boba doesn’t get bullied.He is going to need a very special adopter who understands he is going to take TIME and he cannot berushed into socializing or big changes. We have allowed him to move at his own pace, following his leadand comfort level in his progress. Which is what he needs and only adopters who can commit to him andthis process will be considered.Adoption processPlease contact us if you have any questions about the adoption process. infoShelter locationYou can always email us at XXXX@gmail.com if you want more information about a certain cat on our website.
