Mabel [5]

Jill says: Mabel is a sweet little ginger tabby. She came as a foster when she was about five weeks old and stayed for a little over a month. She came from a wild cat colony that was living in a barn outside of the city. She and another older kitten came into the Fredericton SPCA shelter, but the man who owned the barn was unable to catch Mabel's mom or any of the other cats.

When we first took her home she was so scared that she cowered in her kennel for the first day or so. Eventually she got braver and came out to eat and play a little bit. By the end of the week she was running around and playing all the time. No more hiding!

Mabel's favourite toy was a feather boa on a stick. She used to drag it around the apartment and growl at the other cats. Pretty cute! Mabel is now back at the FSPCA and we hope she finds a home soon! Her transformation from a scared, wild kitten to a fun little girl with tons of personality was incredible! She will no doubt make a great companion for someone!
