Mochi and Boba

About the cats

Gray tabby · Male · 5 years old

Mochi

Mochi is curious and observant. He can be cautious with new people and needs time to approach them on his own. Once settled, he’s affectionate and enjoys spending evenings with his people.

He’s comfortable on his own during a normal workday.

Black cat · Female · 5 years old

Boba

Boba is gentle, playful and affectionate once she’s comfortable. She can be shy around new people or noise and may hide while she settles in.

She enjoys being near her people and does best when she can approach at her own pace.

Both are litter-box trained, spayed or neutered, and microchipped.

Living with them

Daily care and support

We’ll remain their owners and bring them home when we return. Before they move in, we’ll meet and talk through their routines and your household.

Day to day: Meals, fresh water, litter care, play and companionship. We’d appreciate occasional photos and updates, and a heads-up if anything changes.
Settling in: A quiet room gives them space to settle at their own pace. They’ll stay indoors throughout the foster stay, even once they’re comfortable.
Other pets: Already have a cat or dog? Please get in touch. We’re open to homes with other cats or a calm dog that is comfortable around cats. We’ll talk through their temperaments, a separate settling-in space and gradual introductions to see whether the household could work for everyone.
Supplies and handoff: We’ll provide their food, litter and Litter-Robot, and share their routines and veterinary information.
Location: We’re based in Bellingham. Within about 30 minutes is ideal, but we’re open to the right fit from Blaine to the Tacoma area.
Travel and backup care: If you expect to travel or may need a break, let’s discuss that before committing. We’ll need to agree who can provide backup care.
Before we begin: We’ll agree on the return date, care, payment, expenses and backup arrangements in writing.
