It's been a while so I thought I would update. At the moment Mocha is still with us things have improved some but she's still so anxious and just not settled. We're giving up on the rescue that was supposed to be looking for a foster for her they came and did her evaluation and said she would be a good candidate and then we have not heard anything from them since and can't get them to respond to my inquiries.
I've been putting off doing anything because I don't want to rehome her but we have to it's just not right for her to be this stressed and it's so stressful for us as well. So last week I contacted Shamrock which is an all breed rescue here in Louisville. I got a call 5 minutes after sending my email and talked to the lady for 30 minutes! She was great and agreed with our reasons for having to rehome her and was pretty confident they could help us find her a good home. The way they work is that we will keep Mocha at home until we find a new home for her. We will take her to adoption nights on Friday nights at a local pet store so the other volenteers get to know her and people can see her. She'll also be listed on their website. They will take applications and screen any possible adoptors. If someone is interested we can meet them and even do a home visit if we want to and the choice is ours if she goes to them or not.
Although it's not what I want if I have to find her a another home I would like to know who she's with. So hopefully this will work out and we can find her a good home with someone we were able to meet maybe even keep in touch with. We're gonig to adoption night tonight for the first time hopefully things go ok.
