Story
Meet Clara – The Purrfect Cuddle Companion! Clara wasn’t meant for life outdoors—this affectionate girl was clearly someone’s pet at some point before she was rescued. Now safe in a foster home, she’s making up for lost time with endless cuddles and head rubs. If you're looking for a cat who adores attention, look no further! According to her foster mom, Clara is as loving as they come. She thrives on affection and gently reminds you when she’s ready for more snuggles—rubbing against your hands, nuzzling your face, and ensuring she’s always close. You can carry her, smother her with kisses, stroke her from nose to tail—she loves it all, even belly rubs! She is laid back; loud noises and unexpected movements don’t faze her. Clara has one simple request: to be the queen of your heart and your home. Other cats? No, thank you! She much prefers to have all the attention to herself. If you’re looking for a devoted companion who will adore you endlessly, Clara is your girl. She is estimated to be around 2 years old. She’s ready to be someone’s beloved pet again—could it be you? If you’d like to meet her, please submit our online adoption application: https://www.fofct.org/adoption-application. Adopters need to live within 45 miles of Stamford, CT.

Story
Meet Tom Thumb – Spirited, Striking, and Ready to Bounce Into Your Life! Tom Thumb is a polydactyl dynamo with a bold personality and paws to match. Born around 10/3/23, this handsome youngster is a parkour pro—bouncing, diving, and rolling his way through life with joyful energy. He loves playing with people, can keep himself entertained, and sometimes joins in the fun with other cats. Tom’s original family tried to dump him at one of our feral colonies—but one of our volunteers saw it happen and stepped in to rescue him. Now he's safe and waiting for the loving home he deserves. Life in a cage just doesn’t suit a guy like Tom. He’s ready for a forever home—or even a foster home—where he can stretch out, play freely, and enjoy the comfort of a real home. If you’re looking for a fun, affectionate cat, Tom Thumb might just be your perfect match. Ready to meet this unforgettable guy?

Story
Levi was brought to us as a physically abused and painfully thin 2-year-old yet has admirably emerged as one remarkably resilient, fun-loving, affectionate, and healthy boy who is ready to love and be loved! Despite everything he's been through, Levi relishes human interaction – from gentle pets to spirited playtime, he adores it all. However, when it comes to other cats, Levi would prefer to be without any furry competition. And like so many male cats we've come to know and love through rescue, he's tested positive for FIV (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus). However, with the same devotion and care you'd shower on any beloved feline, Levi's expected lifespan is just as bright as any other cat's. For information on FIV, visit FIV FAQ. Let's give this incredible survivor the loving home he's been waiting for! The first step is to submit our online adoption application at https://www.fofct.org/adoption-application. ✨ With an approved application, we can arrange for you to meet Levi. Applicants must reside within 45 miles of Stamford, CT. (You can read more of Levi's story on our Facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/donate/3161415940671048/)

Story
Meet Rusty: The Lap-Loving Gentleman Rusty is a 2-year-old sweetheart with a warm heart and an incredible story of resilience. Once an abandoned cat living in a condo parking lot, Rusty’s life turned around thanks to kind neighbors who noticed his deteriorating health. Diagnosed with painful stomatitis, he had all his teeth removed—a life-changing procedure that left him pain-free, healthy, and thriving. Rusty is a gentle, friendly cat who adores people and lives for lap time. His warmth and purrs can melt away any stress, and he’ll shower his forever family with love. Like many unneutered male cats we've had the privilege of rescuing, Rusty tested positive for FIV (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus). Despite this, with the same devotion and care given to any beloved feline, Rusty's expected lifespan is as bright as any other cat's. If you’re looking for a loving companion to share your life (and your lap), Rusty is the perfect match! Plus, his adoption fee has already been covered by a generous adopter. Ready to meet Rusty? Submit our online application at https://www.fofct.org/adoption-application. Adopters must live within 45 miles of Stamford, CT.
