When most people go to a shelter to adopt a cat, they select one who is friendly, cuddly, and relatively well-behaved. That's bad for the "problem cats": ferals, strays, sick and injured cats, and those rescued from abusive homes. These cats don't trust humans, and can't compete with other cats. That's where foster humans come in, the generous folks who spend their time socializing problem cats ...just to relinquish them to a permanent home when they've succeeded. Jali Henry is one of those cat foster moms, who bond with cats and then send them on their way to make room for another problem cat. In this video, she patiently deals with Jack until he settles down into a happy house cat. You can follow Jack, now named Dipper, at Instagram.
