Not good with dogs,
Story
I came to the shelter in need of some gentle TLC. My spirit never faltered. I am looking and feeling better! My sweetness shows with each visit to my cage. I am 2 years old. I would like a home with no other pets. Being #1 to my adopted family will be the best experience. Being "spoiled" is an experience I would like to have every day. Will that be with you? For information about me and/or the adoption process email ds4paws@hotmail.com for call Rob at the shelter 508 822 1463. An approved adoption application is required to bring me home.

Story
Hi there! My name’s Lexie and I’m a two year old, long-hair with the cutest owl eyes you’ve ever seen! While I’m not the brightest bulb in the bunch, I love to play, and am the perfect companion to follow you around wherever you go. Meowing and trilling the entire time, by the way! When I’m not pouncing on springs or chasing laser pointers, I enjoy a good lay down on any all surfaces. Especially so if it’s right next to my foster moms and has a view of the window! Despite how effortlessly pretty I may seem, these good looks aren’t always easy! I have so much fur that sometimes I need a little extra help to keep my coat extra fluffy and soft. While I’m known for my dramatics, ultimately I’m a good natured, sweet cat that just takes some time to open up to people. And when I do, I’m more than happy to be held and get chin scratches all day long. Think I’m too good to be true? Come meet me and see just how cute I am in person! I am bonded to my sister Billie and need to be adopted with her. She is as loveable as I am!

Story
Greetings! I’m Billie and I’m a lovely, six year old short-hair with a wealth of personality. I may technically be middle aged, but you’d never know it! I have a gorgeously sleek coat, and enough energy to keep up with any cat half my age! I’m not the most playful, but I love to explore and have thoroughly searched every nook and cranny of my foster home. While I’m a little shy at first, and do need my alone time, I really do love to cuddle! Specifically on my moms’ chest right by their faces or next to them in bed, right where I can see them! This is of course as long as it’s my idea. I’ll tolerate being held, but it’s not my favorite. If you really want to get on my good side, there’s nothing that will get me purring faster than being brushed! One time I even knocked my brush off the table just so I could rub against it! We sound like a good match? Please reach out! I’d love to meet and get to know you more in person :) I am bonded to my sister Lexie and need to be adopted with her. She is as sweet as I am!

Not good with kids, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained,
Story
She came from a broken, abusive home where a child broke her tail. She arrived at my house as a baby, skittish and scared. Now she's almost 15 years old. She's not a lap cat, and she used to be aggressive, but then I got her fixed, and now she's a whole different cat. She's loving, but it takes her a while to warm up. She's not good with kids, and normally will run and hide if anyone new comes into the house. She is very loving and looks for attention when she gets to know you, which doesn't take very long. She has some sort of PTSD! Other than that, I wouldn't say it's a good idea to pick her up, but she looks for love and will come to get pets from you. She definitely favors women over men. I have two teenage boys, and she loves them, so maybe not all men. But if any man walks into my house, she'll run and hide and won't come near them for a while. She has hyperthyroidism and I can’t afford it anymore!
