Pets believe that humans can do anything. It never occurred to little two-year-old Winona that people can lose control of their own lives. So, when the fully vetted, spayed, house cat’s people brought her to the shelter, Winona assumed that she had done something wrong. Maybe that’s one reason that Winona hides. She’s mortified and embarrassed.

While Winona worries that everyone will judge her to be a bad cat, the shelter staff know better. They talked to Winona’s people. They know that she’s always been a good girl. Winona was completely innocent and uninvolved in her family’s life changes that made her people leave her.

Still, if someone gives her another chance, Winona vows to be the best, most loving cat that they’ve ever met.
