Sourdough

Five-month-old Sourdough spent her first three months living outside with a colony of cats. In early December, Sourdough and her sister (Sweet Roll) were trapped and brought into a foster home. They had never interacted with humans before, though, so at first it was pretty scary for them! As time went on, however, they both learned that humans were pretty cool after all--not to mention that it's pretty awesome to have a warm place to sleep, food to eat, and toys to play with!
