Story
Our barn cat program is for our cats that take part in the TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return) program but can't be returned to their communities because of danger or lack of care. These are our less social cats that don't crave the company of people, at least at this point in their lives. These cats are peaceful, easy to care for, and make friends easily with other farm animals. Pictured is our lovely Chula who was adopted as a mouser for the family chicken coop. The family followed the relocation instructions and Chula became queen of the land! Like Chula, many families that have adopted a barn cat report that the cats have become friendly over time and bonded with the other animals as well has the people. Most often, the cats are delivered in pairs by our volunteer that settle the cats in and provide instructions for you to follow. All agree that it is very rewarding to give a home and freedom to a less fortunate cat who just by chance was born without a human hand. Please fill out our application from our website and call 860-479-5173. Thank you!

Story
Our dog-cat, Tigger, is ready for his forever home! Tigger was born with his umbilical cords wrapped around his legs. This is a rare occurrence that happens in utero and sometimes the lack of circulation cuts off the leg. Thus was the case with Tigger. Tigger was adopted at 14 weeks old but recently came back to us because of pain associated with his leg and because the other cat in the home never really accepted him. The dogs were his buddies and playmates. He even wags his tail like a dog. Now that he is two years old, we could see the discomfort before the surgery so our wonderful vet recommended leg amputation surgery. Tigger is so much more comfortable and can even move easier. This guy is unstoppable! Tigger has an big personality. He is confident, intelligent and very self-aware. He is friendly, social, outgoing...He's always right there with you and wants to be involved in everything. He loves to cuddle and will give love bites. He's just very expressive. We are hoping for a cat-dad for him but he loves all people. He must be the only cat. He needs no special treatment and he won't have it. He can climb and do stairs. He's has been using three legs his whole life we just had to free him from the fourth. We now need to work on getting his weight down just a bit. Please fill out an application for our amazing boy on our website at www.hucatrescue.org. You can find more videos of Tigger on our YouTube channel and Facebook. Please consider sending in a donation for Tigger to help with his vet bill. Thank you!

Story
Cookie is our stunning, one of a kind beauty who will need a one of a kind person. As you can see in her video she really likes her catnip. She also really loves her foster mom and is always near her and cuddling with her, even under a blanket. Cookie is very possessive of her foster mom so she will not greet you with an arched back and happy tail. It took three days for her to warm up to her foster mom. Now, Cookie doesn't let her out of her sight. We do believe that Cookie has 'only kitten syndrome'. This happens to some kittens when they are taken away too young from their mom and are not around other cats. Mama cats are excellent mom's. They are so loving and they discipline their kittens and show them proper behavior. It's best that kittens stay with their mom's until they are eight weeks old. That's if they are not outside rescues, of course. In that case it's best to get them in as soon as possible to keep them out of danger and to socialize. Cookie does need a home because we can't afford to loose any foster homes. Adopting her would open a spot for a new rescue. That means you are really rescuing more than Cookie. We have kitties on the cold streets that need to come in. Please fill out an application for our beautiful girl at our website www.hucatrescue.org. You will get a kick out of her and lots of entertainment. PLEASE JOIN US THIS SUNDAY, DEC. 7TH AT PETCO, 188 KITTS LANE IN NEWINGTON. WE WILL BE ON THE NORTH SHORE ANIMAL LEAGUE VAN SO YOU CAN MEET OUR BEAUTIFUL RESCUES. THE HOURS ARE FROM 1:00-3:00 P.M. PLEASE FILL OUT AN APPLICATION ON OUR WEBSITE IN PREPARATION FOR THE EVENT. THANK YOU!
