SAFE 1/28/17 I was found wandering a hallway and now I’m making my way into YOUR heart and hopefully new home! A kind stranger found me and brought me into her home for a week where I got to meet her dog and cat friend…I was nervous around my kitty friend at first but later felt relaxed, but the dog scared me and I would need to hide.
I need some major TLC, won’t you help me today?
Love, Sperry

Sperry is an approximately 3 year old Female Domestic SH mix, she brought in as stray by her finder’s. She has no known health issues or injures.

During her stay with the finder she spends some with both the finder’s dog and cat. When Sperry was approached by the finder’s cat, she hissed and would hide for the first couple of days, but later relaxes and will let the other cat approach her. While in the home Sperry ate Dry food When Sperry was approached by the finder’s dog she hissed at him and would hide for him, whenever he tried to approach her. Sperry is litter box trained and used a hooded litter box with clumping litter.

ENRICHMENT:

Charming plump ebony girl. A little nervous and unsure, at back of cage initially, but warms up quickly with attention. Allowed all handling; started purring and rolling over playfully while being pet. Delightful, a lovely companion cat. Showed more interest in wet food than crunchy this morning, is using box appropriately. Should continue to gain confidence here. Added a couple toys to her kennel, a small plush pillow and a felt ball; will monitor use and try others.
