Story
DEUCE IS IN HIS FOSTER HOME IN MEMPHIS TN AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED TO CT ONCE HE IS ADOPTED! This is DEUCE. He is a gorgeous striped tabby. He will need a special patient person as he is still extremely shy.  With the right amount of patience, he will make a great kitty in a quiet home.  He is very food motivated.  He is not recommended for dogs or children. He would probably do best with a gentle outgoing companion to help him get out of his shell. He  is neutered, has had all age appropriate vaccines, microchip, and a confirmed NEGATIVE FIV/FeLV test.  His adoption fee of $295 also includes the transport to CT.  We use a licensed and registered USDA transport company that will bring her up north once she is adopted. If you are interested in adopting, please go to our website and complete an online application using this link:  https://newbeginningsanimalrescue.net/adoption-application   Once your application is received and processed you will be contacted by an NBAR Volunteer. THANK YOU FOR CONSIDERING ADOPTING A RESCUED PET! Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 7, 2026, 10:36 am

Story
EMERGENCY TRANSPORT to save the lives of cats abandoned due to the war in Iran! Owners abandoning pets on the streets as they flee!! All the way from Doha Qatar, we have partnered with foster only rescue (meaning the cats are all in fosters until adopted - not still outside or in cages in a shelter). All healthy gorgeous and most of all SWEETEST EVER. Please open your heart to their plight! Note - pics and videos are the best we can do right now due to the circumstances and the incredible drama going on in Qatar due to air raids etc... These cats might be shyer than normal coming in from afar and we have had them shaved to make them easier to start fresh coats once safe in the USA. They are ALL great with people and seem fine with other cats. Many have not been tested with dogs to not stress them out but should be fine. Higher donation applies as it is very expensive for us to do medical and transport under these scary circumstances. We pray the flight takes off THIS Friday if air space remains safe from missile attack. Here is a little about them: Lucy - 2yr old British Shorthair - this solid white cloud is a quiet gentle girl. She prefers to be the only cat as she is a diva that way. Does not hate other pets but does not enjoy them either. What she does enjoy is her family of humans who she loves to love and cuddle! Cherry - 2yr old Brit Shorthair Scottish Short chonky lovergirl. She is so so much better in person and no photos capture not just her beauty but her incredible goofy personality. One of our personal favs! Lion - this absolutely STUNNING chinchilla persian 1-2 yr old boy is the epitome of both rare and exotic AND sweetness! He is a super model and super lover. We can't get enough of his grumpy faces and amazing cuddles. So awesome! Buttercup - this 2-3 yr old Ragdoll Angora mix is just spectacular in every way. She is gentle & playful, sweet & calm. She’s shy with new people at first (typical of the breed) but very friendly & loving once introduced. She’s good with kids , other cats & people. Loves treats too! Way more gorgeous than any photo! Lily - this 2-3 yr old rare Chinchilla Persian was abandoned when owners fled due to the war. She is incredible. Photos do not do her justice. Gorgeous sweet funny goofy and has a great personality overall - just a spectacular and loving girl waiting for u! Earl - this 4-5 yr old exotic Siamese is STUNNING. He is just a majestic angel who loves to talk and cuddle and play. A perfect age for snuggles and yet a perfect age also for play and fun. Just a big baby to us! So amazing! These kitties were all fostered in a wonderful homes after they were abandoned in Qatar! They are incredibly affectionate, super snuggly, and simply the most purrfect kitties! A few should be solo cats (read bios) but most great with everyone and ALL great with people ADOPTERS UNDER THE AGE OF 23 MUST HAVE A PARENT OR GUARDIAN APPLY We do NOT test for hypoallergenic qualities or exact breeds as we are a rescue so also please do not ask! If you are allergic, then prepare for 20 yrs of an allergy if the cat you adopt causes issues... If you want to apply - please go to https://rnrpets.org/cat-application/ to be approved. If you have additional questions please contact us via email at rocknrescue1@gmail.com. They are all fully vetted spayed neutered per age and vaccinated tested FIV FELV neg had preventatives and microchipped. And ready for love! They are also available to adopters from out of state in the Northeast and is located here in Bedford Hills NY! Long distance adopters must pick up here sorry no shipping or delivering!

These cats are in Bristol, Connecticut too!

Story
Hi, I’m Ember! I’m a beautiful Bombay kittie who is four years old 🐈‍⬛. My current owner is having medical issues and sadly needs to rehome me. I’m skittish but also curious. Once I get to know you I will become your best friend, but please be patient with me. I'm very clean kitty. I love cat towers, window perches, and I love looking out of the window watching the squirrels and birds. I also love to play with ball toys. I like my wet cat food, dry cat food, cat grass, and of course treats. Unfortunately, I do not do well with small children and dogs, they scare me. Thank you for taking the time to read about me, i’m hoping I could be a wonderful additional family member for you.
