Story
Kisa: Elder Sweetheart Seeking a Lap to Land On 🐾 I’m Kisa, a 14-year-old Siamese-mix sweetheart. My mom went to the hospital and isn't coming home, so I’m looking for a final cozy spot to call my own. I am a professional cuddler! I’m quiet, dog-friendly, and my absolute favorite thing is nesting on a warm lap or chest. I’m mostly calm, though I still love the occasional laser pointer chase. The Realities: I’m a "senior with quirks." I always pee in my litterbox, but I usually prefer pee pads for pooping. I sometimes pull out small chunks of my fur when restless, and I can be scratchy with furniture when I’m excited. Health: I have a growth on my colon (suspected lymphoma) and take daily Prednisone. I need a gentle owner who can keep an eye on my digestion and bowel movements. I know I’m a "special ask," but I have so much love to give. If you have an open heart and a spare lap for my golden years, I can’t wait to meet you! Love, Kisa

Story
Joela is a sweet girl just over 9 months old who made the journey from North Carolina to Massachusetts in hopes of finding her forever home. She was found tucked away in a flower bed with her mom and sibling, and thanks to a kind finder, the little family was brought to safety.Joela is on the shyer side and would do best in a calm, low–foot traffic home where she can settle in at her own pace and feel secure. While she’s still learning to fully trust humans, she’s slowly coming out of her shell each day. She loves to play and is especially motivated by treats, which help her build confidence and positive associations. Joela would thrive in a single- or multi-cat household, particularly with other playful cats who can help show her the ropes and bring out her playful side. With patience and a gentle approach, Joela will make a wonderful companion. Joela is now part of our extended stay program which means her fee has been reduced in hopes to find her a home sooner.

Story
Buttercup is a sweet, just-over-a-year-old kitty who’s looking for a calm, understanding home to call her own. She’s quite shy and will do best in a quiet household with someone who truly understands that trust takes time. Buttercup may need weeks—or even months—to fully come out of her shell, and that’s okay. Gentle voices, slow movements, and a patient heart will help her feel safe and secure. Once she starts to trust you, she will accept gentle pets and will headbutt you for more. While she may not be the type to seek immediate attention, Buttercup has the potential to blossom into a loving companion once she knows she’s safe. For the right person willing to go at her pace, watching Buttercup gain confidence will be incredibly rewarding. Buttercup has joined our extended stay program, meaning her fees have been reduced in hopes of finding her forever home!Does Buttercup sound like the right fit for you?Apply for her today at capeannanimalaid.org/catapp

Story
Meet Rebel! She came from a litter that was previously born in a foster home. Outlaw, Rebel and Rowdy are all absolute loves and purr machines. Whether it`s having a good bounce and play with their feather toys, snuggling up for nap time, or stretching out in the hammock. Rebel is considered a special needs adoption as has been previously diagnosed with some gum inflammation when she was about 6 months old. As she was growing into her adult teeth, it may have been the cause of previous gingivitis. While it has been treated here, it doesn`t seem to bother her. However, we cannot guarantee that this condition may not recur in the future. Rebel is bound to be a lifetime of fun and bring joy to a family that is looking for an energetic little lady such as herself! She`s hoping to find a place where she can feel most at home.
