Story
Spice’s story is truly heartbreaking—she was abandoned with a local cat colony and trapped as what we thought was a feral kitten. But once she was spayed, it quickly became obvious she wasn’t feral at all. We knew re-releasing her into the cold wasn’t an option. Her foster home stepped up to help her adapt so we could eventually find her a loving family. Spice has come such a long way already. She gets along well with dogs and cats. She is looking for a home to continue to spoil her.

Peppermint was left at the end of someone's driveway in a plastic tote (with no cover) along with 8 other kittens.  She is a short-haired kitten.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 13, 2026, 8:44 am

Story
Located in North Bethesda, Maryland Meet Spock, a handsome Maine Coon mix who came to the rescue as an owner surrender. Spock is a sweet, affectionate boy who forms strong bonds with his people. While he can still be a little cautious in new environments, he comes out of his shell and is much more comfortable with people now. Once he feels safe, he becomes a loyal companion who loves following his person around, soaking up pets, lap sitting and sleeping in bed with them at night. Spock is a vocal, social cat with a BIG personality—and one adorable quirk is that he wags his tail like a dog! He loves attention and being near his people and is a great communicator who isn't shy about letting you know what he wants. He especially loves chasing bouncy balls and will sometimes ask his person to throw one for him. He'll chase it down and bring it back to keep the game going—or, if he loses track of his favorite toy, he'll meow for help finding it! Brushing isn't his favorite, but he'll happily accept it with any liquid cat treat. He also isn't a fan of being picked up or having his nails trimmed. This playful boy does best with larger, confident male cats who can match his rough-and-tumble play style. He got along very well with an older male cat and also did great with dogs. However, he can be too intense for smaller or timid cats, especially female littermates, as he may chase, corner, or taunt them during play. Because of this, we recommend a home with either no other cats or only confident, assertive male cats who can handle his energetic personality. If you're looking for a fluffy, talkative companion with a big personality who has blossomed into a confident and affectionate cat, Spock may be your perfect match! Note: Spock has a history of improper litter usage. This has not recurred since the behavior was addressed, and he has been consistently using his litter box.   Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 13, 2026, 8:44 am

Story
Located in Blairstown, NJ FP Perry needs an active young cat to play with.  He cannot go to a home as a single cat. Meet Furry Purry Perry.  This adorable guy was found on our property alone, wet and cold when he was about a week old.  He was bottle fed and has grown into one cutie patootie.  He purrs the second you pet him.  He lays on you whenever he can and will give you endless snuggles.  He is extremely active in his foster home.  He is fearless and tackles the big Maine Coons for playtime.  He is a climber and will knock everything down.   He is a short-haired boy and has no chance at ever being a Maine Coon, although he does have the personality of one! He is a winner when it comes to a happy well-adjusted cat     Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 13, 2026, 8:44 am

Story
Located in Absecon, NJ 08201 Meet Simba & Nala! ❤️ Two precious rescued kittens looking for their happily ever after! Simba and Nala were rescued from the same location by a kind Good Samaritan who stepped in to save them. Both kittens were quite sick at the time, and knowing they needed more care than could be provided, their rescuer made the loving decision to surrender them to their current foster mom. Their foster mom made sure they received all the veterinary care they desperately needed. Thanks to lots of love, patience, and proper medical attention, Simba and Nala are now healthy, happy, and fully vetted! They will be spayed/neutered once they reach the appropriate age and weight. Meet Simba! Brown & Tan Tabby Simba is a curious, bold, sweet, and playful little boy with a big personality! He loves exploring, playing, and especially entertaining himself with his foster mom’s long hair! Simba enjoys affection and will allow himself to be held, but only for short periods before he’s ready to get back to his kitten adventures. Meet Nala! Smokey Gray Nala is a sweet, gentle girl who is a little more reserved when meeting new people. But once she realizes your intentions are good, she warms right up and lets her loving personality shine! Pick her up, and her little purr motor starts immediately. ❤️ Nala is also a special little girl. She has an eye condition that affects her vision. While she can see, her eyesight is not 100%. Her veterinarian has evaluated her eyes and determined that no treatment is necessary. Thankfully, her condition does not cause her pain or distress. Nala doesn’t let her limited vision stop her from enjoying life and sharing her love! Two little survivors, two beautiful personalities, and two hearts full of love. Simba and Nala have already overcome so much in their short lives. Now they deserve the next chapter of their story to be filled with love, security, and a forever family who will cherish them just as they are. Could you be their happily ever after? ❤️  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 13, 2026, 8:44 am
