Story
Penny is a loving cat. She enjoys birdwatching, cuddling, and playing with shadows or cat lasers. She is very intelligent and effective at communicating her needs. She has trouble getting along with our other female cat, and would thrive in a pet free home, where someone is capable to give her the attention she deserves. Free to a loving home ❤️

Story
PORTABELLA IS IN HER FOSTER HOME IN MEMPHIS, TN AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED TO PA ONCE SHE IS ADOPTED! Portabella is a gorgeous grey/white British/Domestic shorthair mix. She was loved by someone at some time but showed up at a colony one day to be fed. The colony caregiver noticed that she was definitely friendly and thought she was a "he" because there were no litters over several months.  One day she showed up terribly injured (having been caught in a car engine) and the caregiver reached out for help.  We sprang into action and got her to our vet, surgically repaired her broken jaw, and got pain meds for her carpal hyperextended leg.  We also discovered she had a spay tattoo and had been previously spayed.  After no-one came forward (no microchip) to claim her, one of our fantastic fosters agreed to make a spot for her and her beautiful personality blossomed during recovery. Portabella loves a cushy window seat to view the outside and make biscuits.  She LOVES her wet food (the diet during jaw repair) so she will likely beg for it. :)  She likes to snuggle but will get into "play" mode quickly with a few soft nibbles.  She would make a great kitty for a family with older kids familiar with cats. She prefers to be the only kitty, but will tolerate younger kitties. She has been spay/neutered, microchipped, had all age appropriate vaccines, and a confirmed negative FeLV/FIV test.  The adoption fee of $295 includes the transport to PA.  We use a licensed and registered USDA transport company that will deliver Portabella up north to her new family. If you are interested in adopting, please go to our website and complete our adoption application at this link:  http://www.newbeginningsanimalrescue.net   Once your application is received and processed you will be contacted by an NBAR Volunteer.

Story
DEUCE IS IN HIS FOSTER HOME IN MEMPHIS TN AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED TO PA 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 PA.  We use a licensed and registered USDA transport company that will bring her up north once she is adopted.

Story
Sari was adopted from an amish lady who would breed cats when he was only 4 weeks old. Once my cousin was gifted him, she quickly realized she couldn’t take care of him, as her mom was sick and she needed to take care of her. I took him in and housed him for 3 years but because my parents were raised in a home where their cats were indoor/outdoor, we had to do the same. Sari would get into fights with neighborhood cats and it all became too costly for me to pay on my own, without the support of my family, while being a full time student and only working part time. He is 3 years old as of today, and very well behaved. He does not eat dry cat food, as I have kept him on a wet food diet for a few years now, but I’m sure he could adjust if need be.
