Donna & Marie were rescued after someone passed away. We were called in to help with cats that were left behind. We found the girls living together in a yard kennel, a shed-type fenced in. They were vetted and well fed, but living a no-frills life in captivity. They depended on each other for companionship and a sense of security. They were not afraid of people, but had seemingly been awhile since anyone interacted with them. We took them into foster where it took some time to gain their trust and build their confidence. They just huddled together under their blankets when someone entered their room. On camera, we could see them emerge when they were alone. We gave them the time they needed to decompress, then we began the process of rehabbing them socially. Their foster has spoiled them with good food and treats, catnip, more toys then they've ever seen, comfy cat beds and window seats. Learning all these things are for them to enjoy, has opened a whole new world that they have embraced. They have warmed up to people and enjoy playtime, petting and brushing. They still get nervous at times and will need a calm, quiet environment with someone who is patient and can continue to build up their self esteem. They are very sweet girls who never knew their worth, but will be a true blessing as loyal companions.
Donna is the gorgeous gray tabby with the most amazing crystal green eyes. Marie is the beautiful calico of rich colors, she only has half a tail for reason unknown. They are fixed and fully vetted, well mannered, litter box trained. We are uncertain of their age, adults estimated possibly 5+ years old.

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
