Flora

Santa Flora is a community in southern Trinidad. Flora is also the name of a very special dog; one sometimes referred to as the “kitten whisperer”. A giant Malamute, Flora weighs in at around 100 pounds, making her quite a bit larger than her best friend, Dexter, a cat. The two spent much of their time together cuddling and were inseparable. At the age of 22, sadly, Dexter passed away. Flora was crushed at the loss of her best buddy. According to her human mom, she spent weeks outdoors, howling and depressed. Her human family was concerned that she would not recover.

Flora’s attachment issues were understandable; she came to her family from Best Friends Animal Society where she arrived after living in a bad situation. Her family explained that at first she was very shy, but soon opened up to her family, which included Dexter, also a rescue. Flora’s family adopted two young cats, hoping that they would help Flora heal. Unfortunately, the cats were not as interested in cuddling as Flora, who clearly still yearned for her best pal.

But then, her family decided to foster kittens. From the time that her human mom brought home the kittens named Iggy, Bowie, Roxie and Glamour, it seemed that there was a connection. Also saved by Best Friends, the kittens were in need of a foster family. Human members of the family set up a special place for the kittens in one of the children’s rooms. The kids were excited to help foster kittens; however, it turned out that Flora would happily be doing much of the work. Iggy was the first to check out Flora, walking right up to her and sniffing her nose. Flora brought her face to his and her family saw a big smile on her face. After watching their sibling’s meeting with Flora, the others soon followed. Flora barely moved, allowing the kittens to approach her and check her out. Glamour climbed up Flora, sniffing her eyes and ears. According to her human mom, Flora laid there calmly, a smile on her face. While the four kittens will eventually move to permanent homes, it is likely that a new group of rescue kittens will take their place, where they will receive all of the love and cuddles that Flora can offer.
