Story
Warrior was brought to a New York shelter by the police department along with 4 or 5 other cats after his owner passed away. We unfortunately don't even know Warrior's original name - all of the cats were named after basketball teams by the shelter staff. Journeys stepped in to help Warrior find a new home since the New York shelter was not an environment that would help him come out of his shell. We don't know what kind of home Warrior lived in before he was taken to the shelter, but we would venture to guess he was living with an older individual who did not spend much time with the cats. Poor Warrior continues to be terrified of people. He is hoping to find a foster home (possibly a foster to adopt home) that will be able to spend a lot of time helping him learn to trust people. He does seem to be great with other cats and having some friendly cats in a home could be a very good environment for him. Despite being extremely scared, he has always used his litterbox faithfully. Please contact Journeys at journeyscatrescue@gmail.com if you would be interested in fostering him.

Story
Gimli was found with Kiwi alongside the road, left behind and unattended. They’re both settling in to the shelter, albeit both a bit nervous. While we don’t know much about their pasts or their stories, we know that they both deserve so much more. They can go together, or sperate, but just into homes of love and patience to let them open up and blossom into their personalities.

Opal is a very calm, but athletic cat. She is playful and smart. Opal loves rubs on her chin and back.

She is available for adoption at the Pet Pantry's main facility, 26 Millersville Road, Lancaster. If you think she may be the purrfect match for your family please fill out an adoption application!
