Story
My name is Chestnut and I am a beautiful six year-old green eyed lady. My owner abandoned me and the roommate in the apartment couldn’t keep me and said I had to go on the street if some didn’t come and take me. Everyone said I was lucky to lose my home. It was clearly visible that I was very neglected. I probably was never brushed in my whole life. The mats on my body so thick it took 45 minutes to shave them off me. I’m a really sweet, gentle, and affectionate girl. I love sitting with you and actually do love being brushed. I want to be the only kitty in the home and definitely do not like other cats. I hope my next home will be forever.

Story
Hello, my name is Spooky and I am a 10-month-old neutered male. I have been with KC for over 4 months now, but am finally ready for my forever home! I had a rough start to life, living in a colony of cats under a shed, where ultimately I sustained a deep eye injury, resulting in its removal. This injury brought me a lot of pain in my first few months of life, so I am happy to now be pain-free. My foster mama tells me I look really cute with one eye too! I am so happy I was rescued, because I now have a new lease on life. Because my life started out very stressful, it does take me some time to warm up. But, with time and patience, I am actually the most playful, loving and silly little guy. Once I learn that you won’t hurt me, I love to be pet, scratched behind my ears and will even purr & drool to show you how happy I am. I absolutely love to play! Even though I have been through a lot in my short life, I am still just a kitten, and it shows when toys come around!! I love to chase strings, chew on chew toys and capture anything that makes noises!! I am not picky with my food at all, I am just so happy to have a constant and full meal every day. I absolutely adore other cats, and chirp like a bird when I meet one! While humans I tend to be a bit skeptical of at first, cats I love right away. I would do best in a home with at least 1 other friendly cat to help show me the ropes. Ideally, I would love a human who is home a lot, so I can learn to trust them faster. The more time you spend with me, the easier it is for me to feel safe and comfortable. Things I need most are time and patience with a loving family who knows it will pay off once I settle in and feel safe! I know I will be the best companion for a loving family. I have so much love to give.

Story
My name is Boss and I am a 2 to 4 yr old male. Sadly, my owner cannot keep me because we are not all getting along some of the cats do not like me since I was the new kid on the block. It was only fair that she would try to find me another home. I did test positive for FIV but I am in great health And can have a long healthy life ahead of me with annual exams. I’m a very playful guy and I’m very loving and affectionate. I’m great with children. I’m hoping it won’t be long for me to find my forever home to know me is to love me.

Story
Hi, I’m Ellie. I’m a 3-year-old female cat currently in a foster home in greater Boston area. I love quiet corners where I can watch the world softly. I’m quite the thinker, you know? My days are filled with gentle play and little adventures around my cozy nook. I might be a bit shy at first, but give me a little time, and I’ll show you my goofy side. I’m looking for someone who appreciates a sweet, mellow companion. If you’re looking for a gentle soul to add warmth to your home, I’m your girl. Let’s make our own quiet, happy world together. ats can live up to 20 years, so give careful thought to the changes that are likely to occur in your life during that time. If you can and will commit to providing a safe, loving home for life, then please submit a Pre-Adoption Form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSejVc_RDDfTTGUh2vHmc7At2SUjwTkJlYHgytgSaH6-qESYrQ/viewform

Story
My name is Crispy, and I’m a 1 year old DSH male kitty. I was found outside fending for myself but I much prefer indoor cat life with my people, lounging around them, and playing with toys. I am an energetic guy and want a lot of playtime and attention so I’d really love to have a female friend who wants to play. My favorite toy is a metal kitty fishing rod. I wasn’t taught great manners earlier in life so I’m still trying to figure out how to kindly tell my foster mom to hurry up with dinner and so I probably would do best in a house with only people over age 10. Also while I was unfortunately outdoors I contracted FIV. I’m otherwise healthy and can live a long and happy life. I’ll be there waiting at the door for you when you come home!

Story
My name is Sparky and I am a 2 year old male. I was picked up when traps were set in a colony. I went to the vet and everyone realized that I was friendly! Unfortunately, I tested positive for FELV Feline Leukemia Virus. I’m in great shape and must have been infected by another cat since most kittens born with FELV do not survive beyond 1 year old. Now that I’m indoors and will get regular checkups, I can have a good life ahead. I am a very friendly guy who comes when called. I love being petted and having your attention.
