Story
Gotcha is a 8.5 year old boy who came to us from a home that could no longer care for him. Adorable Gotcha would love to be your new friend! This friendly boy adores attention and showers his people with head bonks and snuggles. He would be a perfect companion for someone who enjoys a cozy night with a good book. He can be timid when meeting new people, but once he realizes pats are on the table, he warms up quickly. Gotcha loves being patted! He has a cute little meow and enjoys mealtime chats. Gotcha likes the company of other cats and is also great with the small dog in his foster home. This handsome boy is a real catch! Gotcha is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations. Gotcha has been diagnosed with diabetes. Diabetes is a condition where a cat cannot regulate their own blood sugar due to an inability to make enough insulin. Our adoption counselor would be happy to chat with your more about Gotcha and any questions you may have about diabetes. Adoption Fee: $175 If you have already submitted an application with us, you do not need to do another one, please email adoptioncounselor@mrfrs.org if you are interested in adopting Gotcha. We will take inquiries on a first come, first served basis via email. If you have not completed our questionnaire, please do so here: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/MER/Cat

Story
Our cat is 4 years old and has been a part of our family since she was 3 months. She is gentle, calm, and affectionate, and enjoys a quiet home environment. She is litter-trained and used to living indoors. We are looking for a safe, loving, and permanent home where she will receive proper care and attention. She would do best in a calm household and would make a wonderful companion for someone looking for a sweet and loving cat.

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
