Happy Tale – Awe

Awe was transferred to CRAN from the local humane society because she had become very fear-aggressive in the shelter setting. It took several months for Awe to decompress and learn to trust again but she did. From her adoptive mom:”Sweet Awe has added a new joyful dimension to my home and heart. I celebrate every baby step she takes towards feeling more secure and confident. I let Awe set the pace and encourage her with talking and singing to her, belly rubs, combing and brushing, and Churu treats.Awe is still afraid of anyone coming to the front door or inside and zooms to hide under the bed. She has graduated from being solely in the bedroom to having full rein around the house. It’s endearing to see Awe’s progress and that she has become my fur shadow joining me in whatever room I am in: rolling over and making air biscuits and purring.Awe loves watching the birds and squirrels outside our bedroom window, playing “catch and release” with catnip toys up and down the hall, and relaxing before bedtime listening to jazz piano with me swishing her tail to the music. I am so grateful for Awe’s prior foster mom who believed in her and patiently nurtured her from a traumatic history. This truly paved the way for Awe to transition to her forever home with me. I am delighted to be Awe’s cat mom, she’s a treasure!”
