My name is Luna.  I'm not sure how I ended up here, but I'm scared and I'm lonely.

I was adopted in 2011 as a kitten from the OHS, and I thought it was forever.  My adopter (a student) moved around a lot, but we always had our own room, and he always remembered to feed me.  Sometimes he fed me too much, so I'm kind of a big girl now.

Then we moved into this place where the roommate / landlord had two little dogs that really hated cats, and they harassed me all the time. One day, they cornered me when my caregiver wasn't there, and attacked me. I was bitten on the face, nose and leg. I lost one of my back claws.  I was terrified, and defended myself as best as I could.

Next thing I knew, there was a lot of shouting between my caregiver and the roommate. I  was thrown in my crate and told I was going to be thrown out - because I had caused too much trouble. There was a lot of shouting and tugging at my carrier, as people argued.

All of a sudden, I found myself in a new strange place, away from everyone I ever knew. I haven't lived with other cats before, and am a little unsure about the one that I am sharing the room with. It's all too much and I'm really afraid.  These new people put me in a crate, and told me that was the only spot they had for me. I had ended up at a Hungry and Homeless Cat Rescue foster home and was sharing a room with another homeless cat and homeless person!

I wish I knew what was going on! Maybe when I understand why my caregiver  abandoned me, I'll feel better.... But right now,  I just long for someone to come along and tell me that it's okay. That I'm going to have a *real* forever home -  where no little dogs will attack me, where I won't be kept in a closet, and where no one will shout and take me away from my home ever again.

Please, can you help me?  I promise I'll be ever so good and will never cause another problem.....

I have since gotten very attached to my human roommate, and have turned into the most affectionate, purring lap cat. I sleep snuggled against my roommate all night long, and purr away. I don't leave his side once. As soon as my roommate comes into our room, I jump in his lap and start purring. I love being patted and stroked, and have a nice loud purr.

I was taken to the vet to have my injuries tended to. I was vaccinated and tested for Feline Leukemia and FIV, and tested negative for both! :) The vet declared me a healthy girl, despite my injuries from the dogs, and being slightly over-weight.

My foster has put me on a diet and I am ready for my permanent home - where I will be loved & patted for the remainder of my life! Please help me - I would love to have more space. Currently, I am kept in a crate when my roomie is not in the room. :(
