Story
Xavier is unlike any other cat I've had before; he is extremely affectionate, curious, and playful. He plays mainly with toys and does not scratch or bite when playing. He's the type of cat to not understand personal space, meaning he will look to rub his head against your face when your laying down, and love to cozy up next to you when sleeping. Xavier is originally from Puerto Rico and moved to Cambridge on January 2026. He is about a year old and has now experienced the full extent of the seasons. He seems to be more partial towards cooler weather and loves to stare out the window at passing people, animals, and cars.I do have to disclaim that currently Xavier is suffering from medical condition which is the reason I'm trying to rehome him. If you're interested in Xavier please reach out and we can talk so more!

Story
A fantastic, fun loving cuddly and expressive cat. Loves company, sitting on your laptop, playing and sleeping close to you. We have had him since he was 10 weeks old, he is now 6. Loves activity in the home, but also loves a quiet day.

Story
Hello! This is my darling cat Ivie! Ivie is around one and a half years old and he is hands down the sweetest, silliest and most inquisitive cat everrrr. He will literally never leave your side (especially if you have food cuz he's big like that), constantly runs up to rub and greet you and your friends and is very curious about the outside world. He eats pretty much anything; he isn't picky at all and he adjusts to situations quite well. He can be a bit shy at first, but eventually, when he feels comfortable enough, he is super willing to show you unconditional love. Unfortunately, he has a bit of a pee problem and pees in spots he's not supposed to sometimes. However, this happens when he's stressed or has an unclean litter box. He gets along well with cats and people who like him. He's not aggressive and will never really strike first unless intimidated or as self-defence. He's the best cat this universe has to offer, and I hope he finds a new home that is full of love and light.

Story
Kiyoko is a pandemic cat, so she’s very people-oriented and loves attention. She’s extremely affectionate once she bonds with you, but like most cats, she comes on her own time and needs her space respected at first. She can be anxious around other animals, vets, and new people, especially if they move too fast or invade her space, but she is genuinely very sweet and loving once she feels safe. She just needs a patient and calm environment to open up. She was my emotional support animal in college, and even my roommates, who she didn’t like at first, eventually fell in love with her. It was definitely an enemies to lovers situation. She loves watching projectors, sleeping by your feet, and sitting with you while you get ready in the morning. Due to ongoing allergies and some health issues, I’m no longer able to care for her the way she deserves, so I’m looking for a safe, loving home where she can feel comfortable and cared for.

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Ashy is a handsome, gentle boy who loves curling up with a soft blanket and is often found snuggled in a cozy cubby with a feline friend. He has been slower to settle into the shelter and relies on his cat roommates for comfort and confidence, so he will need a patient, experienced cat owner who understands that trust takes time. Ashy needs someone who is willing to give him plenty of time and space to adjust to his new home and who will let him set the pace as he learns to feel safe. Once he is comfortable, Ashy enjoys being talked to and receiving affection, and we hope that with the right person, his sweet personality will continue to shine. 8365

Story
Meet Sailor Moon! A gentle and lovable girl with the sweetest heart. While she may be a little shy at first, underneath that cautious exterior is a kitty who loves affection, making biscuits, and staying close to her favorite companion, Zach. She just needs a little time and patience to feel safe enough to fully come out of her shell. Sailor Moon may not be the most outgoing cat right away, but once she starts warming up, you can see just how sweet and loving she truly is. She also absolutely loves Churu treats and enjoys quiet moments filled with comfort and love. Her bond with Zach is incredibly special — the two adore each other and bring each other so much comfort. They’re looking for a loving home that will give them both the patience, kindness, and chance they need to blossom into amazing companions. 9154
