This is Kimberley’s story:
Kimberley was undomesticated and living in the suburban landscape fending for herself as best she could. Kimberley got pregnant and gave birth to three little kittens. Someone found Kimberley’s kittens where she had hidden them, behind a shed in a backyard, and with good intentions they decided to take them. Her kittens were handed into Perth Rescue Angels for care and the search started to find Kimberley as the kittens needed their mother. Kimberley was eventually trapped and came into foster care but through no fault of her own, she was unable to be reunited with her kittens.

When Kimberley came into care she was a mess; she was skinny, her fur was dirty and she had fleas. Kimberley seemed so sad at the loss of her kittens. Kimberley was very unsure of humans and would cower in the corner hiss, spit and swipe at her foster carer. As at 27/04/2018 Kimberley has been in foster care for four months and she is a very different cat now to when she arrived. Kimberly has put on weight (maybe a little too much, all that good food and love), her beautiful tortoiseshell coat is clean, shiny and fluffy, and she no longer has fleas. Kimberley is still wary of humans but she has come a long way from the hissy cat she was. She now greets you at meal time, although she has a confused hissy purring thing going on. Kimberly cannot be picked up or touched; she is friendly and loves to come over to you but not close enough for you to touch her, but she does like your company and will smooch around on everything close by that is not a human, e.g. her scratch post, her hidey box, the floor! We are not sure if she will ever be able to be patted, but time will tell.

Companions (Children, Cats & Dogs)
Kimberley has her very own outside cat run and a warm secure inside area for sleeping (of which she is expert at, sleeping, that is), eating and watching the goings on in the household. Kimberley’s area is connected to the household living area but separated by security screen doors; she is part of the household and can see and hear us. She can see and touch noses with the other cats in the house and there is never any agro. The next step will be to integrate her fully into the household with the other cats. Kimberley really seems to like and want cat company. As far as we know Kimberly has not been exposed to dogs or children, although there is a small yappy dog next door and a big woofer at the back neighbour, so she certainly knows what a dog sounds like.

Likes / Dislikes
Kimberley has been a bit spoilt and now loves all the good quality cat foods. She has wet food for breakfast and dinner and dry food to snack on during the day. She also loves roast chicken and the occasional bit of bacon. She loves her bed and will tuck herself up in a tight ball and sleep away the hours.
