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
Becky  Bop and her other siblings were born approximately 7/1/23.  Her momma, Beatrice Bop, was owned by a family in Enola, Pennsylvania. The family surrendered Beatrice and her babies so that they could all find good homes.  They had all been handled by children and are sweet natured. Becky is very outgoing, friendly and playful. She enjoys  playing/wrestling with the other kittens and would be happiest in a home with another companion animal.  She also likes to chase the laser light, play interactive toys and climb the cat tree. She is perfect with the litter box and currently uses paper pellets litter.  Her  adoption donation is currently $150 which includes age-appropriate vaccines, dewormer, flea treatment, Felv/FIV testing, microchip, and spay. If you would like more information on Becky Bop, please contact Cindi  at lovingcarecatrescue@gmail.com. If you would like to fill out an online application, please visit https://alovingcarecatrescue.org/adoptionapplicationonline.html Please note:  LCCR does not allow our adopted cats and kittens to be declawed.  All adopted kitties are to be kept as indoor-only pets.  If you are interested in adopting this kitty, please fill out the online application at https://alovingcarecatrescue.org/adoptionapplication.html November 29, 2023, 7:50 pm

Story
Adopted from Derry Cats Rescue Mickey is six years old. Someone that will give him the love he needs and wants. I have other six other kitties and he doesn't get along with them. He has an identical sister that he gets along with very well. Will also be posting for her also. It breaks my heart that they have to be kept shut up in a separate room for everyone's safety. This is the last thing I want to do. I really love them but it's getting to be an impossible situation.
