Story
Pluto was adopted by my brother, 2 weeks out of the litter. He only provided basic provisions like feeding her, giving her a littler box and affection. This did not include any vet visits, I got her spayed at 3 years old, her only vet visit. This was not the right home for Pluto. She was kept mainly in his room, my mother didn’t want a cat and constantly spooked her or got loud with and shooed her aggressively (never physically hurt her) to try and get her to stay off of furniture and such. My brother then left her behind in my other brothers care, he took better care of her, but was barely home, she was alone often. And he’s moved as well now. She’s not socialized and gets spooked and triggered easily and bites at the ankle or attacks randomly. Never anything severe. She’s a sweet cat, but she needs someone experienced. She’s very cautious, shy, and mistrusting. But she’s very curious and while I believe in the right home, she will thrive. I feel for her and want what’s best for her..

They were surrendered due to their family moving and being unable to keep them, through no fault of their own.Willy has a unique eye from an untreated bout of conjunctivitis when he was a kitten. It healed differently, but it does not affect his quality of life, requires no medication, and doesn’t slow him down at all, it just adds to his character.Both cats enjoy treats, catnip, and cozy time with their people. They are looking for a calm, caring home where they can continue their life side-by-side, sharing love, playtime, and companionship.If you’re looking to double the love and welcome two wonderful cats who are already best friends, Willy & Reese could be the perfect addition to your familyIf you are interested in adopting this bonded pair, please come to the shelter on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays between 12-4pm.If you are interested in adopting these kitties but unable to come to the shelter during those hours, please email cats@worcesterarl.org to see if other times may be available for you to meet them.

Story
We know Pumpkin very well because she's in one of our fabulous foster homes. Her foster mom says Pumpkin loves to cuddle. She also says Pumpkin is a mellow gal who loves treats and only meows in the morning, when she knows her soft food is coming. How polite is that?! She does have her playful side and string toys bring out her inner kitten. :) To meet Pumpkin in her foster home in Arlington, please complete our quick pre-screen by copying and pasting the following link into your browser: https://bit.ly/3yRGpMD
