Story
Age: 3 years Size: MediumGood with young kids: NoGood with older kids: Best in a home with no children or children are quiet and very respectful of her spaceGood with other pets: May do best as the only catIndoor only: Yes Meet Grace! Grace arrived in our care as an unclaimed stray. Grace is currently in a foster home. Here is what her foster family says about her: `Miss Grace spends most of her time in my spare room. She does sneak out from time to time. She is really sweet, but she gets startled very easily. She likes attention but is easily frightened. I think she will do well in a house as the only kitty. She may do best in an older person`s home.` Her foster family also says that Grace will occasionally get brave enough to jump onto the bed and roll over on her back to show her tummy!

Story
In foster care, fill out the application if interested in meeting her https://mynewcat.org/adopt-a-cat/adoption-application/ Donut is a very sweet little cat who loves to sit on laps and be petted. She also enjoys being held in your arms. She loves toys and is very rambunctious. Donut likes to play with other cats but needs a tolerant cat since one of her favorite activities is jumping out from behind something to pounce on cats. Donut came to us as a very spicy kitten who would scratch or bite with little provocation. She has come a loooong way in foster but occasionally if spooked will nip or swat. For this reason, her ideal home is with someone familiar with cat body language and preferably no kids or older kids who can respect a cat.

Story
This kitty is in a foster home! Fill out the adoption application if interested in meeting her https://mynewcat.org/adopt-a-cat/adoption-application/ Meet Rosie, a gentle, fluffy 10 year-old domestic long hair with a heart as soft as her beautiful coat. Rosie experienced trauma in the first three years of her life and that's left her feeling cautious and shy. When she feels safe, you couldn't ask for a sweeter, more affectionate girl. Rosie needs to be the only animal in the household. She would do wonderfully in a quieter environment where she can feel safe and cherished—whether that’s with a single person, a couple, or a family with older children who understand her need for calm. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will bring warmth, beauty, and quiet joy into your life (she has the softest meow!), she might just be your new good friend.

River and Smoke's Story This pair is in foster care!! Fill out an application if interested in meeting them!! https://mynewcat.org/adopt-a-cat/adoption-application/ Smoke (1 year old) (MoMo, Mo, Mur) came in as a terrified stray, but he always had a soft spot for love. He’s a vocal kitty who will happily “mur” his way through a conversation—hence the nickname. Smoke is goofy, playful, loves pets, and occasionally likes to be a shoulder “parrot” while being held. He plays well with other cats, is curious about dogs, and does best with a slow introduction to kids. He enjoys being around children and their toys but can get startled when things get loud. Smoke dreams of a forever home with his sister, where there are plenty of cat trees, spots to climb, places to explore, and a cozy bed or couch to cuddle on. He does have a grade 2 heart murmur, but it’s mild and simply something to keep an eye on during routine vet visits. River (7 months old) is the perfect mix of sweet and sassy. Found in the engine block of a car at just over a pound, she has overcome every challenge thrown her way. She helped Smoke gain confidence and continues to bring out the best in him. True to a curious kitten, River has to be involved in everything happening around the house. If she’s there, Smoke is never far behind. River loves to be held and petted, and she’ll play with anything she can bat around with one paw—pens, hair ties, bobby pins, cat toys, even her 4-year-old human sister’s toys (her favorites). She’s wonderful with children and fits right into their activities, whether being pushed in a doll stroller or helping turn pages during story time. River also plays well with other cats and is curious about dogs, so a slow introduction would suit her best. She hopes for a warm, loving home with plenty of cuddle space on the couch or bed. Together, Smoke and River’s favorite activity is racing and playing on the stairs—while not required, they think stairs are a bonus. Their favorite toy is a simple cardboard box with a few small plastic items inside
