My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hi, I’m Minnow.  Our Mama, Margaret Mary, my four siblings and I were found on the front porch of a house when we were about five days old. We came to SBACC and then went to a foster home with our Mama who was so protective of us that she wouldn’t let our foster Mom near us. So we all returned to SBACC and our Mama nursed us in a special back room at the shelter.  Once we were eating on our own we went to a new foster home and Mama stayed at the shelter to get ready for her forever home.  We were all kind of scared of people and hid for a while but gradually started to trust our new foster Mom.  I’m very focused on playing with my siblings and really don’t want to be held or cuddled but I have come a long way since I went to my foster home. I used to hiss a lot but don’t do that anymore.  I’m sure I will become a loving companion given time, patience, and gentle loving care. I definitely need another kitten or young cat in my forever home.  I wouldn’t do well without a playmate.
