Star

Hello there. I’m Star, a young mom rescued by FOHA with my baby, Aries. I’m a sweet cat who has been through a lot so far in life and am looking for a forever home where I can continue to blossom. 

Once I get to you know and build some trust, I love to rub up against your legs and get lots of pets. If you sit down, I enjoy laying near you or even leaning into you. I’m not a lap cat (yet) but show my affection through rubs and purrs. If you aren’t doing what I want you to, like holding still for rubs or trying to touch me somewhere sensitive, I might use my paw to redirect your hand. I’m not keen on getting picked up or overly handled but am just super squirmy, slippery, and good at running away to hide—there’s not a mean bone in me. Would I really be an orange cat if I didn’t have at least a smidgen of sass? I also get easily startled by quick movements and am wary of new people, but do bounce back given some time.

The way to my heart is through patience and persistence, plus lots of rubs and treats (I like Churus and Greenies). I also LOVE mouse toys, and balls. But definitely the mouse toys! I even throw them up in the air myself and catch them, which my foster mom says is “so darn adorable”. While I do enjoy some me time, I am a fan of other cats. I enjoy playing and cuddling with Aries but am definitely open to making new friends. I also love watching out the window and keep a good eye on the neighborhood. Bonus if it’s while I can bask in the sun. 

I might be nervous and shy at first, but I’m worth it if you give me a chance—according to my foster mom, I’m a total sweetheart. I’m in search of a patient and loving family that will spoil me endlessly, and preferably with at least one friendly feline roommate. Could that family be you? Please contact FOHA if you’d like to meet me . . . I’ll be waiting.
