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..

Story
I rescued binks after neighbors moved away she is very sweet. Unfortunately she got pregnant and now my dogs are not getting along with her because she got aggressive when she had her litter. While the kittens were still here she got out and got pregnant again she is due soon and I am worried for her and the dogs. So she's a pregnant cat in need of a great home she's a sweet girl and an awesome mommy cat.

Story
Hi! My name is Charlie. I will be one on February 25, 2026. I was taken in by my current family when my first owner passed away, but they have a lot going on and would love to find me a home that I can thrive in and where somebody can give me lots of love and attention. I LOVE snuggling, looking out windows, and playing with toys. My favorite place to hang out is on top of the fridge so I can see my whole kingdom. I’m great with kids and dogs! I am not neutered and do need to go visit the vet to get up to date on my vaccines. I am so excited to meet you!

Story
Queso’s journey has been pretty incredible. When he was first rescued, he was wary and unsure of the world around him. Now? He’s a certified lap cat and proud of it. 🧡 This friendly, affectionate boy loves pets on his face and ears and will reward you with the loudest, happiest purrs—he’s truly a champion purr machine. He also has a playful side and enjoys a good toy session, but Queso still has a shy, timid streak. He’ll need a patient adopter who will give him the time and reassurance he needs to feel safe. Once he does, he’s all love. Queso is being fostered in a home with children and does well with them. His one special request? Two litter boxes. We promise—this sweet, snuggly boy is absolutely worth it. Ready to meet this Arlington lap legend?

Story
This lovely girl is one of the nicest cats you'll ever meet. She not only loves her people, but is social with visitors as well. She was surrendered by her owner after she let her outside and she got hit by a car, and she could no longer afford her care. While Mandy just turned 9 years old, don't be fooled - she acts half her age. During the day she plays with her toys, and has no trouble jumping on the kitchen counter to play in the sink - yeah, we're working on that. She spends most of the day looking out the window and watching all the critters run around, but from the safety of her cat tree. At night she enjoys sitting with her person on the sofa watching TV or being gently brushed. Watch your hands - she loves to give lots of those sandpaper tongue kisses! She is showing early signs of mild kidney disease, but it's easily managed by feeding her a high quality canned food-only diet. Her bloodwork showed significant improvement from when she was first surrendered, so one of our consulting vets believes that good nutrition will keep her stable for some time to come. In her original home she did live with a large number of cats but she was not a big fan of interacting with them. She does okay with one of the cats in her foster home, so she probably could live with another cat after a slow and careful introduction. However, Mandy is not one to cuddle with another cat, she prefers to save that for her humans, and loved sleeping on the bed next to her original mom.. Mandy is fully vetted and microchipped. Her adoption fee is $225 and she is being fostered in Worcester.
