Story
Rexy is looking for a new forever home! He likes attention and to be petted and loves to play with his toys and nap. He comes out to see what the excitement is, as he is a very busy boy. Rexy is looking for a quiet, adult only home (mature, older children will do well to play string games with him). Rexy needs activities and busy work. He cannot be left all day alone and all night in a small environment. If you would like to meet Rexy, contact Jill at dsajill1@yahoo.com or 978-500-6079 cell, or 978-969-2389 home.

Story
I got Marie in October 6 years ago at NE shelter in Salem MA. Mitzy, Sugar and Cookie from Melrose humane 5 years ago. They are the most loveable cats and friendly. The tiny one (Sugar) could be skidish as well as her sister Cookie. They look exactly alike but Sugar has the white tip on her tail. These cats had so much love in our family and it hurts to rehome them so I would like the next family to love them as much as we do. My children adored them and they adored my kids. Each had their own favorite they would sleep with at night. My older son is very allergic and we tried to make it work and he would rather suffer than rehome our babies..but it's getting harder for him and I also will not be able to take them to my next location as we are selling our home. Please give these babies so much love, they are amazing, happy loveable little girls.

Story
Hello, I'm Buster, your future confidante. You see, I've been known to be a one-human cat. My last human? Well, they decided to join a rock band. You'd think they'd take me along, right? No, the drummer was allergic. So, here I am, stuck at this shelter while they're probably out there, off-key and all. Not a fan of other pets, they're too noisy. And loud noises? They're for the birds! Or dogs. Definitely not for sophisticated felines like myself. I'm the perfect companion for a quiet home, where I can offer my undivided loyalty and playful cuddles. Adopt me, and I promise to make our home a rock-band-free zone!Every PALS cat and kitten has been spayed/neutered, microchipped, tested negative for FeLV/FIV and is up-to-date on vaccinations. A note about kittens: if you are adopting a kitten, they may need to complete their FVRCP (distemper) series and may not be old enough for their rabies vaccination. These essential vaccines will be the responsibility of their new owner. Detailed vet records and a calendar of vaccination due dates will be provided. The PALS Adoption Center, located inside PetSmart at 10 Traders Way in Salem, MA (just off Highland Ave/Rte 107) BY APPOINTMENT ONLY TO APPROVED ADOPTERS.  Adoption applications can be found online at www.palscats.org.  A completed application is not necessarily an approved application. We do ask for written landlord approval if you rent, or proof of home ownership (water bill, etc.) We will also check your vet references.  You will be contacted by our adoption staff once your application has been approved.  Please note it can take up to 48 hours.

Story
Hello, I'm Martin, your potential new best friend! I'm a smart, mellow fellow who loves to play and interact. I can solve puzzles, chase toys, and I'm always up for a good cuddle. My friendly nature makes me a joy to be around. I'm sweet and gentle, always ready to show my love with a soft purr or a gentle nudge. I may be a tabby, but my personality is as vibrant as a rainbow. I'm a stray who's found his way to a shelter, but I'm ready to find my forever home. Why should you adopt me? I'm not just a cat, I'm a companion. I'm the playful, loving friend you didn't know you needed. I promise to fill your life with laughter, joy, and unconditional love. Adopt me, and let's start our beautiful journey together.
