My personality

My story

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

Boots

Boots is a shy, gentle girl who came indoors after living outside for the first year of her life. She was trapped on a porch in Bay Ridge, and meant to be returned, but when we were able to pet her on her release day, it was clear she wasn’t meant to go back out.

Boots, a beautiful 2-year-old tuxie, does not approach people on her own and needs time to warm up, but she truly loves being petted. Once you start, she melts — purring nonstop and soaking up all the scritches she can get. She’s the kind of cat who will quietly wait nearby, hoping you notice her. While she seems very shy, she is incredibly sweet once she feels safe.

Boots is very easy to care for - she loves food, loves treats, and even enjoys working independently through any treat puzzle you set in front of her. She does well with other cats, but would prefer to be in a home with adults only. She will need a calm household where her boundaries are understood.

Bootsie is a soft, observant presence who needs a patient and gentle approach. In return, she offers sweetness, gratitude, and a whole lot of purring to the person willing to meet her where she is.

Boots is neg for both Felv & FIV

Additional adoption info

Our cats are almost all in foster homes. Upon approval of your application (including reference check), we will connect you with the foster parent(s) so that you can meet the kitty you're interested in. If it's a good fit, we'll do a home check for safety issues, and then process the paperwork so that you can officially adopt your new family member!

More about this rescue

We are a network of rescuers in Central Brooklyn (primarily in Bed Stuy, Ocean Hill, and Crown Heights) who help each other out. We do both TNR (Trap, Neuter, Return) as well as the rescue and adoption of friendly cats and kittens that we find on the streets. We don't have a physical facility, so our cats are usually in foster homes, or staying with us in our own homes. Our goal is to find loving, permanent homes for all the cats we take off the street, and to make better lives for the ones we return there.
