My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

MEET ROCKET! Would Love A Cat Friend!
**Please note, multiple meets will be required before taking Rocket home.**

Rocket is still navigating her world and figuring out where people fit into it. She was a great mom to her litter of kittens. While in her foster home, Rocket liked being around her foster person but wasn`t up for a lot of touching. Rocket is quite curious and is getting more tolerant of pets with the back scratcher (see her video) but hands are still quite scary. A friendly cat would also help Rocket feel more comfortable in her new environment. If you have a quiet, adult-only home that doesn`t get much foot traffic, have experience with undersocialized cats and are patient, Rocket might just be the one for you.

Rocket is currently up to date on all vaccinations, has been spayed, microchipped and been seen by our vet team.

For more information on Rocket or any other animal currently residing at the Animal Rescue League of Boston, please call us at 617-426-9170. We welcome adopters from NH, RI, CT, and NY. However, we will be unable to facilitate same day adoptions due to state regulated paperwork requirements.

We require the following as part of the adoption process:
* Adopter must be 18 years of age or older
* A current government-issued ID (no student IDs)
* Have a conversation with an ARL adoption counselor
* A photo of the cage your pet will live in, if adopting a small animal or bird
