Story
Hi cat lovers, we are sad to be looking for a new home for this lil guy Sigmund, but I am re-prioritizing due to the circumstances. We live in Brooklyn, extra busy with a few neurodiverse kiddos and freelance jobs - Sigmund was handed to us by a neighbor who found him under her car. He is super sweet, good natured, he's been good with training, hanging and playing with our other rescue Felix too. I had planned to get him neutered after his symptoms eased as 6 weeks ago he got a urinary blockage so I took him to a low cost vet in Manhattan and got him on antibiotics, changed his diet and have since been monitoring him. Since then he is having little and big accidents & positive house-training is failing... I will attempt to get in again to ASPCA to check his situation again over the next week, but don't have the time/resources needed to keep up with his care right now. Adding an adoption fee as we really want to make sure Sigmund is wanted, and he is well worth it 💜

Story
This is Ricecake, a gentle and affectionate kitty with a name as soft as her heart. She is 3 years old, quiet, loving, and happiest when curled up near someone who makes her feel safe. Ricecake has allergies that require daily or regular medication and a little extra care but she returns that care with endless purrs and calm companionship. She just wants a peaceful home where someone can give her the attention and medical support she needs. I am heartbroken to say I can no longer give her the care she deserves due to my circumstances. This isn‘t a decision I make lightly. I am looking for someone who can open their heart to a special-needs cat, someone patient and kind who will see how much love Ricecake still has to give. She’s litter-trained, indoor-only, and up-to date vaccinations. I’m happy to share her vet records and medication info with any serious adopter.

Story
Please meet our gorgeous cutie pie JASPER - A feline young treasure boy and already an personal assistant, full of surprises in giving love and affection that will make you feel very special to be his parent. This beautiful Bombay boy was rescued from horrible situation during the cold winter nights and despite his timid posture, his gentle and affectionate disposition shined through from the first second he entered his foster home - making it obvious that he was once an indoor cat brutally abandoned fighting for himself over food and survival. Since in his foster home, JASPER is showered with love and attention by his amazing Foster Mom and his development into an affectionate, happy fur ball is just stunning. He is eager to join her and her residential kitty when watching TV and wants to be part of her daily tasks as well. We were in tears when we realized that this lil fellow never had a a cosy bed to sleep in or knew what toys are - choosing at first a box without blankets to settle in and disregarded any fluffy toy. NOW, he can't get enough from his own luxurious soft bed, relaxing there under deepest purr until falling to sleep and started also to bounce some toys around - always looking at his foster Mom for confirmation that life is good and it's ok being a teenager with some foolish attitude. JASPER can't wait now to get attention, tender love and chin rubs, thanking with constant love-seeking purrs - pure out of satisfaction. When ever teh opportunity is given, he hops on hi Mom's lap or legs and listen to her while enjoting cheek rubbing and most of all back scratches and brushing, his beautiful golden eyes sparkling to the maximum when receiving attention and his now shiny coat a constant reminder what beautiful Bombay boy he is. JASPER loves to be part of everything and closed doors make him even more curious what's behind it - a true BOMBAY feature - so be prepared that this furry companion would like to emperor his furever kingdom with no restrictions allowed!. As every young teenager, we think he would love to have a furry buddy that welcomes him in a gentle way and wants to have some feline fun and pleasures to share with - especially if his furture parents work long hours. JASPER is still a bit cautious when meeting new people but learns quickly to trust - thus - as always - we ask for a little patience at the meet and greet so his true soft character and gentle demeanor can shine through and you will recognize how much love he can give! JASPER is a 1.5 years young healthy boy, neutered, dewormed / deflead, vaccinated, tested negative for FIV/FELV and otherwise fully vetted including microchip.. Come and meet this stunningly beautiful Bombay Fellow - more beautiful and affectionate in life than pictures will ever tell!

Story
Please meet our 4 ADVENTURERS!: MARCO, MARCELLO, PAOLA and NICCOLA! This 91 year old feline gang was rescued from the backyard of a commercial building, adventuring around and trying to survive without their mother. Their intake was just precious and since then these 4 kids taking over their rescue space, exploring their new but safe environment and taking it day by day - like every day is a new adventure.They are beautiful and true feline treasures with hidden affectionate souls to start with, showing more and more their happiness and trust in their new life inside. It seems that some have already chosen their partner in crime - MARCO (Black Bombay, 1rst picture) wrestling with MARCELLO - 2nd picture - forming the ultimate brotherhood, leaping around and chasing after each other in a playful manner. It's amazing how MARCO developed from a shy boy to the "leader of teh gang" - always ready for some mishevious moves.. MARCELLO is also a bundle of energy, always vocally announcing that he is ready' whatever fun time is coming up. He rubs against his foster parent seeking for attention and of course when the treat bags shaking - super cute!. NICCOLA - 4rth picture - is the more laied back part of this gang - often found playing and especially snuggling with her sister Paola but also seeking feline luv with the residential older cats. Please see more pictures and video's of the girls at: https://www.adoptapet.com/pet/37855168-new-york-new-york-cat So we are still watching closely whom they prefer to spend their feline siblinghood for life but we are also open to adopt at least Niccola to a loving home with a residential cat friendly feline soul in place. They are already altered, fully vaccinated, dewormed, tested FELV/FIV negative and are rmicrochipped. COME and FALL in LOVE with these beautiful adventurers! and check out our website for more adorable kitties looking for a forever home: https://www.adoptapet.com/shelter/84295-east-harlem-kitty-rescue-new-york-new-york#featured
