Story
Gibson is a 16-week-old male kitten with a big personality and an even bigger heart. This playful little guy is always on the move—chasing toys, wrestling with kitten friends, and showing off his impressive pouncing skills. He approaches life with confidence and curiosity, making every day a little more entertaining. When playtime winds down, Gibson is happy to relax and enjoy some affection. He loves attention, gentle pets, and being close to his people. Social and outgoing, he’d do well in a home ready for kitten antics and plenty of interactive play. Because he’s still young and thrives on companionship, Gibson would need to be adopted with a friendly feline buddy or go home to a family that already has a playful resident cat. With the right match, he’ll grow into a well-adjusted, loving companion. If you’re looking for a fun-loving kitten to bring energy and affection into your home, Gibson is ready to rock his way into your forever family.

Story
Meet Shrimp! Looking for a tiny ball of energy to brighten your days? Meet Shrimp, a 6-month-old gray tabby with a big personality! This beautiful little girl loves all the classic kitten things—chasing toys, zooming around the house, and pouncing on anything that moves. But when playtime is over, Shrimp is all about human attention and snuggles. She’s confident, curious, and ready to make friends with everyone, including dogs—she lived with them in her foster home! Due to her young age and playful nature, Shrimp will need to be adopted with a friend or go home to a household with another playful resident kitty to keep her entertained and socialized. Are you ready to give this spirited sweetheart her forever family? The adoption application can be found here: https://newbeginningsanimalrescuenj.org/adoptions/

Story
Meet Phoebe, our sweet 1-year-old dilute calico with the softest heart and the cutest quirks. Phoebe dreams of being your one and only—your loyal lap cat who will happily spend her days curled up by your side. She’s a biscuit-making pro (she may even try to sneak in a little suckle!) and when you scratch her head, she opens her mouth in the most endearing “smile” that will melt you instantly. When she’s not soaking up snuggles, Phoebe enjoys lounging in front of a sunny window, keeping an eye on the world outside. Playtime is also high on her list—wand toys and little mice are her absolute favorites. With her loving nature, playful spirit, and unique personality, Phoebe is ready to bring joy, comfort, and plenty of smiles to her forever home.

Story
Meatball was a stray which we took in last November. He has been neutered, up to date on vaccines and microchipped. He is extremely friendly and loves to be pet. He will follow us around and even loves to fall asleep on our laps. He loves to play and does have a lot of energy. Unfortunately he does not get along with our other 2 cats, so he may do best being an only cat.

Story
Meet Garbanzo Bean! Garbanzo Bean is a gorgeous long-haired gray and white tuxedo boy with striking gold eyes. Rescued by us in the summer of 2020, this affectionate bottle-baby was adopted at just three months old. Unfortunately, his previous family couldn’t provide the love and care he deserves, so he was returned to us a few months ago, around his 4th birthday. Garbanzo is a calm and gentle cat who is truly looking for a loving home. He gets along well with dogs and would be a wonderful companion in a quiet household with a small to medium-sized dog, or even as an only pet! However, he has some litter box habits that need attention. After being confined to small spaces and using a cramped litter box, Garbanzo developed the habit of pooping just outside the box on a pee pad. While he still uses the litter box for peeing, pooping outside the box has become an ingrained behavior and will require patience and consistent training to help him break the habit. Although we’re unsure of Garbanzo's past experiences, he is still decompressing and learning to trust again. He enjoys lying on the bed next to his person and being gently stroked on his back. With time and care, Garbanzo’s loving nature will shine through. He may even start playing fetch with you! Garbanzo is a bit nervous around other cats and would do best as the only feline in a household. He needs a patient, understanding adopter who is committed to helping him re-learn proper litter box habits. A non-carpeted area or a catio would be ideal for him to adjust and break his current habits. Garbanzo is up-to-date on vaccines, dewormed, microchipped, and negative for FIV/FeLV. He has been fully vetted and has no underlying health issues. He is searching for a quiet, loving home where he can feel safe and thrive. If you think you could be the special person to offer Garbanzo the love and patience he deserves, please apply today!
