Story
Hi! We're Olivia and Penny. We are a couple of affectionate gal pals who have been raising our kittens together. Now that our work of co-parenting is complete, we are ready to settle into a nice home together and start the next chapter of our lives: being the best pair of house cats you can imagine. A bit about us: Olivia, stunning 2 year old calico with beautiful golden green eyes. Loves sitting aloft in my cat tree, paper bags, laser pointers, and head scritches. Penny, a mustachioed glamor 1 year old tuxedo. Loves a fresh breeze and bird watching, wand toys, cardboard boxes, and purring as loud as possible. We both love to be pet, to sit on your lap, and are comfortable being held. We are good with kids, but Olivia can occasionally get overstimulated from too much petting so any young humans will need to learn how to take it slow and recognize her cues that she needs a break. If you have room in your heart and home for 2 dedicated, loving companions, you couldn't do any better than us. (The adoption fee is for both of us)

Story
I found TeeTee abandoned in Missouri living under a shed as a kitten in 2021. She lived with me and my family (2 kids through infancy) for 5 years in Missouri and was an indoor/outdoor cat. She likes spending time outdoors, especially at night, and is cuddly when inside. We recently moved to the city of Boston for my job, and while she has a rooftop, she does not have any ability to roam outside. Her demeanor has noticeably changed and I fear she is unhappy with our new situation. Looking to rehome her to a family with lots of outdoor space for her to roam

Story
Lola is a gorgeous senior calico that came to us from a complicated 17 cat neglect situation. She is a very shy girl, borderline spirit cat (a rarely seen kitty companion), but she has been coming out of her shell with us over time and we think she will thrive in a quiet home, perhaps with a friendly kitty or two to show her that humans are just weird looking besties. No kids or dogs please, big noises are a little too new and scary for our gentle girl.  Every PALS cat and kitten has been spayed/neutered, microchipped, tested negative for FeLV/FIV and is up-to-date on vaccinations. A note about kittens: if you are adopting a kitten, they may need to complete their FVRCP (distemper) series and may not be old enough for their rabies vaccination. These essential vaccines will be the responsibility of their new owner. Detailed vet records and a calendar of vaccination due dates will be provided. The PALS Adoption Center, located inside PetSmart at 10 Traders Way in Salem, MA (just off Highland Ave/Rte 107) BY APPOINTMENT ONLY TO APPROVED ADOPTERS.  Adoption applications can be found online at www.palscats.org.  A completed application is not necessarily an approved application. We do ask for written landlord approval if you rent, or proof of home ownership (water bill, etc.) We will also check your vet references.  You will be contacted by our adoption staff once your application has been approved.  Please note it can take up to 48 hours. Our online sites are updated regularly, but we can not guarantee that a cat you see here is still available. Please email if you have any questions regarding the adoption process or our available cats and kittens. PALS is an all-volunteer, no-kill rescue group. Each and every cat and kitten has been rescued locally. July 16, 2026, 7:16 am

Story
Mama Tao is a gorgeous and petite dilute calico female. She was found as a pregnant stray on the streets of Nashville, but acts like she’s been indoors her whole life. She enjoys looking out the window, scratching her cardboard scratching post, and lounging near people in gorgeous poses. Mama Tao is estimated to be 1-2 years old and still loves being picked up and carried around like a baby. She hasn’t figured out playing yet, though. She is litter trained and gets along with other cats and kids; she tolerates our dogs, but isn’t the biggest fan. If she joins a family with cats, she will tend towards being dominant. Mama Tao is the most beautiful and sweet addition to a family and can’t wait to join yours.July 16, 2026, 12:26 pm

Story
My name is Froggy and this is my brother Tucker. Wait, maybe I’m Tucker and this is my brother Froggy. The thing is, we look so much alike, sometimes we can’t even tell ourselves apart. We’re both brown tabbies, about two years old, both larger than average, and we need a home with someone who will love us. We eat, play and sleep together. It took a while for us to open up but our personalities are shining through. We greet our foster mom at the door when she comes in and we’ll do the same for you if you adopt us. We’ll curl up with you while you watch TV, and at least one of us will probably be on your lap. Our favorite toys are ribbon and strings- knitters beware. When we are left alone, we play tag with the energy of two small tornadoes. Whoever adopts us will need to be patient with us, but we'll be worth it because we will love you for the rest of our lives. Our adoption fee has even been discounted to facilitate us getting adopted together.We are neutered males and our shots are up to date. We are being fostered in Revere.

Story
My name is Tweety and I'm a 4-year-old tabby girl and I'm posted with my kitten pal Han Solo. I was surrendered by people who never bothered to take me to the vet, so, predictably, I had lots and lots of kittens, then they gave me up with having too many cats as the reason for surrendering me. I never learned what happened to my babies. I like to be around people, but I admit it takes me a while to get used to new ones. Certain behaviors, such as wariness at being approached for petting by hands coming from above, being even more startled than most cats by sudden noises and movements, or guardedness around feet, make my fosters suspect I may have experienced abuse in my past, such as by being struck or kicked, but I'm not telling. I'll admit, I was kind of a mess until Han Solo came around. He's only about two and a half months old and he kind of reminds me of my babies. I didn't like him at first, but it didn't take him long to win me over with sheer cuteness. I'm not as much a mother to him as I am a big sister. We run around and play a lot-- he's the perfect companion for me because I have a lot of energy also. I know I'm bigger than he is, so I'm pretty gentle and I seem to be doing a good job of it. We've become a bonded pair, so neither of us will be adopted without the other.There are a couple of very young children in my foster home. I would probably be OK adopted into a home with older kids but younger ones don't always respect my boundaries. I respond with a swat, but I don't actually try to hurt them. We have been spayed/neutered, our shots are up to date, and we have tested negative for FIV and FeLV. We're being fostered in Melrose. The total adoption fee for both of us is $325, which is putting us pretty cheap if you ask me. It's a huge discount. If you're interested in adopting us, click the button that says "Ask about us."

Story
Our names are Hamlin and Tango and we are two orange brothers only about 2 1/2 months old.  Everyone who sees us says that we are probably the cutest kittens they've ever seen and we're not going to disagree with that. We are two balls of chaos who love to run around and play with pretty much anything we can get our paws on. Everything we see is a potential toy. Like most kittens, we would do best adopted either with each other or into the home of someone who already has a cat or a cat-friendly dog, but neither of us are cut out to be the sole four-legged creature in anyone's home.We have been neutered, our shots are up to date, and we have tested negative for FIV and FeLV. We're being fostered in Allston. The total adoption fee for the two of us is $595. If you’re interested in adopting us, click the button that says “Ask about me.” It’s right down there.
