Story
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.   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
This is Ears Malone. His original name was Tiger, but he has so much expression in his ears, his foster mom renamed him.  He was born to a friendly stray mom in the rescue.  He gets along great with other kitties and does well with friendly dogs. He will give you love as soon as he gets to know you. He just takes a bit of patience. He needs a kitty buddy to give him snuggles and confidence. He is spayed, has had all age appropriate vaccines, microchip, and a confirmed NEGATIVE FIV/FeLV test.   If you are interested in adopting, please go to our website and complete an online application using this link: http://www.newbeginningsanimalrescue.net.   Once your application is received and processed you will be contacted by an NBAR Volunteer.

Story
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.   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.

Story
Spock is a very loving part of our family. Unfortunately due to some unforeseen circumstances with our rental property our Rental Agreement changed and now can no longer have cats, we also had to get rid of our mini pig so this is just truly heartbreaking to endure. Spock is an adventurous male that loves to be with his owners or just meandering around. He has/will hop on you any chance a lap is present to give out some cuddles. He is truly a dog in a cats body because he just wants to be your friend and hates being isolated. Looking to find him a truly one of a kind home to fill the void that he is about to go through. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated. We don't have long to find him a new home and I hope we make it before we have to surrender him to an animal shelter because that would just break my heart.
