Boba is the sweetest boy with a troubled past! He has had a very rough life in his short 2 years! We
don’t know much about his life before coming to us at Furry Friends animal aid but we know it wasn’t
great. When Boba was surrendered to a high kill shelter in October of 2022 the person who surrendered
him stated that Boba was a stray on the streets in Houston his first year of life and then the person
brought him inside only to decide they could not handle as many cats as they had. So poor Boba was
taken to the high kill shelter where he was put straight onto death row! Luckily FFAA stepped in and
pulled a miracle out of the hat 30 minutes before his dead line! Boba was terrified rightfully so! He was
so afraid of everyone and everything at the pound he would not let anyone touch him! Boba is safely
with his foster family now and he has let them know that he is not a mean or bad boy at all!! He is the
sweetest, goofy boy when given the chance! Because of all he has gone though it takes him longer than
most cats to warm up to new people and places. As of now his foster mom can pick up cuddle love and
give 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 new
environments and people in his own time. It took a few weeks for Boba to appreciate any human
contact without flinching and being afraid. He spent a month in his kennel decompressing from the
trauma of his past and adjusting to his new foster home. He showed he is much more comfortable
around other cats than he is people but started to “talk” to foster mom at night when the house was
quiet and FM was trying to sleep! She didn’t mind though these conversations helped boba adjust and
got him ready to come out of the kennel! Once he openly accepted touch and sought out human
contact, the doors to Boba’s kennel started being left open. After some coaxing and reassurance from
the 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! Boba
climbed into bed with his foster mom… curled up next to her and allowed her to pet him all over and
even touch the belly!! Toe beans and belly were all presented to foster mom to touch! Now if foster
mom lays down in bed he comes up for cuddles and he is sleeping in the bed when no one is around. He
still chooses not to leave the bedroom very often and has made his kennel his safe space. If anything
becomes to much for him or he just wants a break from the other cats he will go into his kennel and
enjoy some alone time.
He adores other cats greets them with chirps and coo’s but is a submissive boy if the other cat is to
dominate Boba will hide instead of standing up for himself. Being submissive he should be good with
any 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 be
rushed into socializing or big changes. We have allowed him to move at his own pace, following his lead
and comfort level in his progress. Which is what he needs and only adopters who can commit to him and
this process will be considered.
