Story
Blossom is in foster care!Hello. My name is Blossom (A1881279). I prefer to be called momma. I took exceptionally diligent care of my babies. They mean the world to me. I am protective over those I love. Not mean, just watchful. I take safe care of my foster mommy and my foster brother. I like to spend my days laying at my foster mommy’s feet. My foster brother gets on my nerves sometimes, but I just lay there and deal with him. He is just a youngin himself. I follow them everywhere. Every couple days I get the zoomies. Just for a few minutes, but I like to run all around and watch everyone’s reaction. Even though I have a nice comfy bed or my own personal kennel, I tend to lay on the hard floor. It is cooler you see. This Texas heat is hard to deal with. I was so scared when I first met my foster mommy. It took me a few days to learn how to walk up and down stairs. I became comfortable with my foster mommy and foster brother right away. I have learned how to sit and mostly come when I am called. I do not always like to listen, but I am learning. Email BARCFoster@houstontx.gov if you are interested in adopting Blossom!
