Mowgli started life at MLCR, adopted as a tiny kitten into what he thought was his forever family. For five years, he was loved. Then the family he knew disappeared. He was left at a shelter—confused, stressed, and acting out in ways he never had before.

When we heard Mowgli was back in the system, we didn't hesitate. He was ours. We brought him home.

In foster care, away from the stress that triggered him, Mowgli has revealed who he really is:

• Affectionate — Wants to be by your side, always—basically a dog in a cat’s body

• Harness-trained — Loves walks and other forms of safe outdoor exploration

• Dog-loving — Gets along with pups of all sizes (he thinks he's one of them)

• Food-motivated — Easy to train and eager to please

• Resilient — Thriving on special food and fluoxetine to manage stress

His Perfect Match

• An active person or family

• A home without other cats (he wants YOU all to himself)

• Dog companions welcome—he loves them!

• Someone who understands that love + consistency = transformation

• A commitment to his special food and medication (we provide full guidance!)

Mowgli is waiting for the family who will take him on adventures, give him all their attention, and never let him feel abandoned again.
