Story
Cindy is a pretty calico girl, about a year and a half old, who was rescued as a frightened, hungry, abandoned stray. Her foster gave him the time, patience, and gentle reassurance for her to understand that humans could be trusted sometimes, and her affectionate nature has emerged. Now, Cindy enjoys being pet, loves to play, and will happily curl up by her foster mom. She still has a sensitive side and would do best as the only cat in a calm, understanding home where her person will let her continue growing in confidence. We haven’t seen her around dogs or children yet, but we believe she’d likely do well with respectful kids and dogs who know how to interact gently with cats. Cindy would do best in an interactive home where she isn’t left alone for long hours. She should be adopted by someone experienced enough with cats to understand that she will need patience, but that patience will pay off. Whoever is fortunate enough to adopt this little girl will gain a devoted companion for life.She has been spayed, is current on vaccinations, tested negative for FeLV and FIV, and treated for worms and fleas. Her adopter will receive her medical records. She’s being fostered in Cambridge. Adoptions are facilitated by video meet-and-greets, as well as in-person visits. There is a simple adoption process and an adoption fee, which helps us continue rescuing cats in need. In Cindy's case, that adoption fee has been reduced by more than half to a mere $95-- a bargain for a new best friend. Cats can live past 20 years, so please consider whether you can commit to providing a safe, loving home for life before adopting. Please email Safercats11@gmail.com and say a little about yourself and the home you would provide. Doing so helps rescuers match cats with the right adopters. Including your phone number is likely to result in a faster response.

Story
Meet Crusty, Crusty is a handsome brown tabby with a thick coat and bright green eyes. He’s a loving, playful boy with a silly side, he loves to roll onto his back, chase strings, and zoom around the room during playtime. Crusty especially enjoys his scratcher posts (his couch-shaped one is a favorite!) and does well with other cats. He's come a long way from his shy beginnings, and has blossomed into a loving, affectionate companion who now happily leans into chin scratches. Crusty is a 1-2 year old neutered male cat with up to date shots. If you're interested in Crusty then fill out an online application at https://melrosehumanesociety.org/adopt

Story
Sprinkle is a pretty long-haired girl whose magnificent fur proclaims that she is a Maine coon mix (although her size doesn't). This 15-year-old sweetheart lost the only home she had ever known when the person who meant the world to her passed away. Despite her loving, loyal nature, no one in the family was willing to give her a home for her remaining years. Sprinkle's foster can tell you how warm and affectionate this little lady is; she enjoys being pet and will happily curl up next to you with a contented purr. We haven’t seen her around other cats, dogs or children yet, but do well with all of those given proper introductions. (Will gladly give you pointers on that.) Sprinkle would do best in an interactive home where she isn’t left alone for long hours. Whoever is fortunate enough to adopt this little girl will gain a devoted companion for life. Sprinkle seems like an easy cat who would be suitable for a first-time adopter.She has been spayed, is current on vaccinations, tested negative for FeLV and FIV, and treated for worms and fleas. Her adopter will receive her medical records, including a recent exam and blood work. She’s being fostered in Boston. Adoptions are facilitated by video meet-and-greets, as well as in-person visits. There is a simple adoption process and an adoption fee, which helps us continue rescuing cats in need. In Sprinkle's case, it has been reduced to a mere $35-- a bargain for a new best friend. Cats can live past 20 years, so please consider whether you can commit to providing a safe, loving home for life before adopting.

Story
Our boy needs a home because of housing situation. He is a sweetheart, loving and loves to cuddle. He is amazing with newborns as well as children. He doesn’t get along with dogs since he does get scared. Loves plushies, he will go around the house with his favorite plushie. He is on science diet because other food will hurt his tummy. He does not shed too much but is totally fine with brushing and nail cutting.
