A lot of work happens behind the scenes with every cat rehomed through Cats in the City Rescue, all with the same goal in mind: making every cat feel at home.
Mildred is our current rescue resident. A beautiful torbie who was very shy and nervous when she first came to stay with us. To help this little lady feel safe and settled, we began a three-stage process. Stage one involved re-establishing her on Fluoxetine following behavioral assessments and recommendations from her veterinarian.
This week, we entered stage two. Her medication, which has really helped her personality shine, has been transitioned from an oral medication to a transdermal application. This compassionate, low-stress approach will make it easier for her to adjust to a new environment with her future family, while also turning each application into another opportunity for bonding.
Keep your eyes peeled over the coming week. Milly is almost ready to start meeting new people!
Reach out if you’d like to learn more about her. And as always, we’re looking for sponsors to help support our rescue cats while we work to get them adopted.
