It’s always heartbreaking when an animal is returned to a shelter. Recently, one poor cat ended up back in the kennels because she was “picked on” by the other cats 😢💔
But after that sad setback and a long wait for her forever home, Ahsoka finally got some good news…
Ahsoka, a 3-year-old shelter cat, was placed in a foster home with some other cats while she waited for someone to adopt her. But after more than 260 days in the home, things became difficult.
According to the humane society, the other cats in the home were “picking on” Ahsoka and guarding the litter box. The poor cat had to be returned to the Humane Society of Broward County, in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. “She doesn’t understand why she’s back,” the shelter wrote on TikTok.
@humanebroward She doesn’t understand why she’s back in the shelter 💔🥺 Three-year-old Ahsoka is officially our longest resident 🙏 After 260+ days with a foster family, she returned to the shelter because the other kitties in the home were picking on her and started guarding the litter box. This affectionate girl is very voal and will come to you for pets and love. She likes to give kisses and cuddle on her terms. Ahsoka is also very playful and likes interactive toys on strings. She is incredibly soft and her coloring is beautiful. Ahsoka gets along with other kitties and kids, she’s litter box trained, and loves to cuddle – she is the perfect cat! Please don’t let her wait one more day for a permanent home ❤️🩹🙏🐱 Ahsoka’s friends at J.R. Dunn Jewelers have kindly sponsored her adoption fee. If she sounds like she might be a good fit for you, please fill out a pre-adoption application at www.humanebroward.com and come to the shelter to meet her. The shelter is located at 2070 Griffin Road, Fort Lauderdale, FL and opens daily at 11 a.m. If you have any questions, please call 954-989-3977 ext. 6. #cat #catrescue #adoptme #catsofinstagram #catstagram #adoptacat #catreel #catreels #animalshelter #animalrescue #dogshelter #fortlauderdale #florida #instacute #instacat #catadoption #adoptasheltercat #ash #catlover #instagood #kitten #kittensofinstagram #cutecat #tigercat #tabby #wholesome #velcrocat #shycat #catlife #catlovers #ahsoka
