Please contact Nancy Whelan (adoptionsakny@gmail.com), (518) 822-8643 for more information about this pet.Benjamina is a quiet soul with a gentle heart. She came to us after his previous guardian passed away, and she’s been part of our rescue family for several years now. While Benjamina isn’t particularly interested in human affection—she prefers brief interactions with the few staff he trusts—he loves the company of other cats, warm naps in the sun, and the peaceful rhythm of outdoor life.Though he’s safe and well-cared for here, we would love to see Benjamin spend his golden years in a home that understands her quiet nature. A calm, cat-friendly environment where he can enjoy the simple things—companionship, safety, and the freedom to be himself—would be the greatest gift.October 16, 2025, 5:26 pm
