Sora
● The bravest of the group: curious, alert, engaged in everything happening around her.
● Food motivated and often purrs during meals, and food has been a great way to connect
with her.
● Has become increasingly affectionate. She now sleeps on the bed with me for periods
and sometimes climbs onto me.
● Responds well to voice and has recently started interacting with cute little mews of her
own.
● Gentle during play and interaction. Even her little "love bites" are soft and controlled.
● Currently prefers choosing how she interacts with people rather than being held.
● Confident and relatively independent, but she definitely values companionship. When
separated from her siblings for meals, she would meow and seek out human company.
They seem to do best with gentle voices, slow movements, consistency, and routine while they
settle into a calm environment. New people may not immediately see the kittens I came to know.
Once they feel safe, they blossom. They happily accept pets, purr, and become much more
engaged with both their people and their surroundings. Watching that trust develop has been
one of the most rewarding parts of fostering them.
Once comfortable, they are also playful and will chase each other around for hours. They enjoy
wand toys, strings, wire toys, balls, lasers...pretty much anything they can hunt or chase. Their
current favorite is a simple wire-and-cardboard toy. They've also clearly benefited from having
one another for confidence, play, and companionship.
They have been excellent with their litter boxes throughout their stay. I provided one litter box
per kitten, and keeping them clean seemed to encourage those good habits.
All three consistently use the vertical scratching post rather than furniture. They also really love
climbing, playing, and napping on their cat tree.
