Story
Meet Pearl & Edgar! Pearl and Edgar are a special bonded pair who are looking for a quiet, loving home where they can settle in together and feel safe. Edgar is the more reserved of the two and will need plenty of patience and time to warm up to his new family. Luckily, he has Pearl by his side! Pearl is typically the more outgoing of the pair and helps Edgar feel comfortable when they’re experiencing new environments and situations. Once Edgar feels safe and settled, he’s known to show his sweet, cuddly side—always on his own terms, of course! Pearl is also a little shy and would appreciate a peaceful, low-traffic home where she and Edgar can relax and take things at their own pace. These two may need a little time to come out of their shells, but watching them gain confidence together will be incredibly rewarding. If you have a quiet home and a patient heart, Pearl and Edgar could be the perfect pair to welcome into your family. If you are interested in Pearl and Edgar, please call us here at (401)846-8276. You are welcome to stop by our Animal Care and Adoption Center here in Middletown, RI to meet with them at any time. Feel free to visit our website, www.potterleague.org, for more information on adopting from us.

Story
Meet Goblin! Goblin is a sweet, independent girl who likes to do things on her own time. She’s a sensitive kitty who would thrive in a quiet, calm home where she can relax and build a relationship at her own pace. When meeting Goblin for the first time, let her come to you. She can be hesitant about being petted, but she may surprise you by deciding when she’s ready for affection. Right now, she especially enjoys a good brushing! She’ll let you know when she’s had enough, too—Goblin can become overstimulated easily, so giving her space when she asks for it is an important part of loving her. Goblin would do best with an adopter who understands independent cats and is comfortable reading feline body language and recognizing when a kitty needs a little space. In return, you’ll get to experience the special bond that comes from earning the trust of a cat who chooses you. When Goblin first comes home, she’ll need a quiet room of her own to decompress and settle in. Giving her time to adjust and bond with her new surroundings and family will help her feel safe and confident. If you’re looking for a gentle, independent companion and are willing to let the relationship grow at her pace, Goblin may be your girl. If you are interested in Goblin, please call us here at (401)846-8276. You are welcome to stop by our Animal Care and Adoption Center here in Middletown, RI to meet with her at any time.

Story
Meet Moby! Moby is a very affectionate gentleman who loves attention from his people. As soon as he sees someone at his kennel, he comes right up to the glass looking for affection. Open his cubby, and he’ll happily offer his head for pets! If you’re looking for a cat who truly enjoys being loved, Moby may be your guy. Moby also seems very interested in exploring, so he may be happiest with a dedicated room or space where he can safely stretch his legs, climb, and get comfortable while he settles in. Moby does have diabetes and requires insulin, so his new family will need to be prepared to work closely with a veterinarian to establish an appropriate treatment and monitoring plan. Because of his medical condition, treats should only be given as recommended by his veterinary team. Moby previously lived with other cats, but he began having conflicts with them while he was experiencing medical difficulties. For that reason, he may be happiest as the only cat in his home, which would also make managing his diet and diabetes easier. Since he was successful with other cats in the past, he may be able to warm up to a calm companion with a slow and controlled introduction. Despite everything he’s been through, Moby is still eager to connect with people and soak up affection. He’s looking for a patient, caring home that can give him the medical support he needs—and plenty of head scratches along the way. If you are interested in Moby, please call us here at (401)846-8276. You are welcome to stop by our Animal Care and Adoption Center here in Middletown, RI to meet with him at any time.
