Story
DEUCE IS IN HIS FOSTER HOME IN MEMPHIS TN AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED TO VA 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 VA.  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.

Story
Cracker will be eight years old in June 2024. Cracker has never been away from her brother, Jack, who is from the same litter as her. My preference is that they both find one home so they can be together. They are healthy cats, and their vaccinations (rabies and RCP) will be covered till 2027 by the time they are rehomed. Cracker has no specific dietary restrictions and eats both wet and dry food. Cracker is a playful cat. She loves to sit on top of a bar stool or a high chair and catch hair ties I throw to her. She also enjoys lying in a box with holes in its sides, and playing with things poked at her through the holes in the box. She is fond of her collection of wand toys. My friends who have had to cat-sit for Cracker and Jack over the years have often remarked on how nice they are. They do not scratch. They are shy and do not hang out much the first time they meet you, but they are playful and sociable once they get used to you.

Story
Jack will be eight years old in June 2024. Jack has never been without Cracker, his sister from the same litter as him. My preference is that they find the same home. Jack is a healthy and energetic cat, and his vaccinations (rabies and RCP) will be covered till 2027 by the time he is rehomed. Jack has a tendency to develop bladder stones because of which he only eats prescription wet and dry food. Jack's absolute favorite game is when I spread a blanket on the floor or the bed, and he tries to get under it. He also loves to chase toys down the hallway, although he does not play fetch. He is also fond of his collection of wand toys. My friends who have had to cat-sit for Cracker and Jack over the years have often remarked on how nice they are. Jack is shy and does not hang out much the first time he meets someone, but he is sociable once he gets used to you. (Jack occasionally tries to lightly bite you but that's an affectionate response to your cuddling.)
