Anne is a loving and curious 8 year old spayed female with a big voice and an outgoing personality. Anne is very fond of her bed and likes having her safe, familiar spot to curl up in. She greets us with a meow as soon as we enter the room and is always eager to come out for attention. She's still curious despite her old age! When her door is left open, she'll spend her time exploring the room before returning to her bed for a nap. Anne has an unusual fur texture, however our vet doesn't consider it a problem and believes that's likely just how she is. Anne is a wonderful senior cat who would do well with a quiet and affection-filled home where she can rest her days away in the company of a human companion. Anne qualifies for our seniors to seniors program.
For more information on Anne, call AWS at 860-354-1350 email animalwelfare.socty@snet.net or visit our website aws-shelter.org for an application Adoption Fees for Senior cats (8yrs and up) is $50 Adult Cats $200 and Kittens under a year $250

Animal Welfare Society, Inc. is an independent, non-profit, non-destroy organization founded in 1965.
Our Mission is to aid and find loving, permanent homes for abandoned, stray, and abused cats and dogs in New Milford, Bridgewater, Brookfield, Roxbury, and Washington, Connecticut.
Each year hundreds of dogs and cats find refuge at our shelter located at 8 Dodd Road in New Milford, Connecticut. Abandoned dogs are rescued from the Regional Canine Facility in New Milford after the mandatory 7-day waiting period. AWS also makes periodic trips to New York City's overpopulated dog pounds and brings their animals to our shelter for placement. Our cats are found abandoned in the areas we serve.
From the moment these animals enter the shelter, they are no longer unwanted. Each is a special pet waiting for a caring, responsible, permanent home.
