Valerie was rescued as an expecting mother and had her babies safely in-house just 1 week later. She was afraid of people and kept her distance, but was a good mother to her kittens.
Once they were adopted, we began socializing Valerie one-on-one in a foster home. She was very timid and it took her awhile to understand human attention.
Once she figured it out, now she can't get enough. She loves to be pet while she rolls and flops, and purrs with delight. If you stop, she will reach out and gently tap your hand so that you will continue.
She got comfortable with that little routine for awhile, but now she has progressed to seeking out the attention... coming to you for pets, instead of just waiting for you at her safe spaces. She is enjoying her more recent discovery that she can make herself seen and good things will happen.
She cohabitates in foster with other cats and has learned from watching them interact with people, playing and having fun. Now she finally 'gets it' that she can have that too. They are friendly and have always tried to include her, but she remains independent of them. She just wants a person she can go to and have the attention all to herself.
She is ready for more than foster can give, and will do very well as an only pet in a calm, quiet environment. She is very sweet and lovable. She has worked hard to be ready for this, and has waited patiently for the reward.
She will be a very loyal companion to someone who can show her she's important. Let's get this beautiful girl into a loving home where she can finally have it all.
Valerie is a petite, light-silver tabby, and is extra soft like a bunny. About 3-4 years old, fixed and fully vetted.

More about this rescue
ROOTING FOR THE UNDERDOG!
Underdog Cat Rescue was founded in dedication to urgent cats outside in the elements. We help those who are lost, abandoned, or stray to ensure their immediate safety and assess their rehabilitative needs. We commit to fostering these needs until ready for placement into safe and loving homes.
SURRENDERS: We are UNABLE to accommodate pet surrenders. As a foster-based rescue, our ability to intake is subject to space and very limited. Our mission is dedicated to those who are homeless and need rescue from outside.
REHOMING: We are able to help with rehoming if you are willing to 'foster your own' while we post your pet adoptable and search/screen applicants on your behalf. There is no fee as a volunteer service, but you may be asked to cover the veterinary cost of having your pet up to the adoptable standard.
HOMELESS: If you know of a domestic cat that is homeless, you may contact us and we will help whenever possible. If we can help with rescue and adoption (but are unable to accommodate foster), you may be asked for your participation or ability to temp foster.
FOSTERING: We are always in need of fosters. If you are able to provide a temporary home, please contact us!
SOCIALIZING: We can socialize feral and semi-feral cats to an adoptable status, but it is generally a longer-term foster commitment. Our ability to socialize one-on-one is very limited, in which that space usually remains occupied with a waiting list. If you know of a cat with this potential, we can evaluate and help with protocol for successful rehab and adaptability.
FERALS: If you know of a feral cat colony that needs help, please look into your local community TNR trap/neuter/release program.
DONATIONS: If you would like to make a donation or sponsor an Underdog cat, please email us at underdogcatrescue@att.net
