About Moostash
Moostash is a gentle tuxedo cat who lived outside for her first four years and is now adjusting to the comforts of indoor life. Since arriving at her foster home in April 2024, she has shown a sweet but skittish personality, shaped by her time outdoors. She's bonded closely with her sister and raised a litter of kittens together, but now it's finally her turn to find a home. Moostash likes people on her own terms—head scritches are a favorite, and she'll come looking for pets when she's ready. Churu treats and wet food are her absolute weaknesses, and she makes her presence known at mealtime with soft meows and eager circles. She's independent and low energy, preferring quiet spots and cozy blankets. You might go hours without seeing her until dinnertime. Lounging in the window or stretching out in an empty bed are some of her best moments of the day. Playtime is low-key: a wand toy or hair tie will keep her quietly amused. Moostash does well with other cats given a slow introduction, but she needs a calm, adult-only home with no children or dogs. Loud noises and quick movements frighten her, and she does not like being picked up. Moostash is considered special needs due to a hip issue—she walks with a sway, and sometimes stumbles if startled or moving too quickly. The vet suspects a neurological cause, but she manages stairs, litter boxes, and jumping onto low surfaces with no trouble or pain. She’s looking for someone patient who can give her time to settle in. Give them the home they have been waiting for. Apply today.
