Story
Echo is a beautiful little grey lover-boy! Of course he loves playing and has toys that can be sent along with him. He likes his meal at breakfast time, and will play, sleep, and love you the rest of the day. Medium energy range: Truly a wonderful cat that is friendly to all people, including children (so great with my 2 year old nephew!), and good with other cats - though if he feels he's getting less attention than another cat, he will pout about it. He is quite self-sufficient otherwise. LOVES pats including belly-rubs. Yes. I know it's rare, and he's all about it. Well-behaved, and if you pat the seat beside you, he will jump up and join you <3. Calm and doesn't jump up on shelves (I have delicate things and never worry). Likes to put his face in plants, but never destroys or knocks over anything. His favorite toys are wands toys, silvervine sticks, and shrimp toys he batts around. Will chase after treats. Then sleeps in the sun and enjoys being loved.

Story
Handsome elder states-cat Misty enjoys napping on soft beds, cat nip, and string toys. She is a 10-year-old, independent lady who would prefer a quiet home. She would do well as an only cat or with other mellow pets. Misty is currently in a foster home. If you want to meet Misty, complete an adoption application at queencitycatsvt.org.

Story
Mae is a beautiful, 4-year-old tortie girl. Mae moves through the world like a backcountry traveler—quiet, observant, and deliberate. Give her time, and she’ll reward you with a soft, steady presence and a sweetness that feels earned, not assumed. Tuna and salmon treats are her favorites, and they go a long way toward winning her trust. Mae has a well-documented love of vertical terrain, so a home with drywall ceilings and a tall, sturdy cat tower will help her feel secure and grounded. She does best in a calm, low-traffic environment, gets along well with adult male cats, and would thrive with someone who understands that the best companions don’t rush the bond. If you want to meet Mae, complete an adoption application at queencitycatsvt.org.

Story
Belle and her brother Blake came to QCC to find their forever humans after losing their long-term person. Belle is a lovely short-haired domestic cat with a gentle, quiet nature. She can be a little shy, especially around new people, but once she gains confidence, she may even settle into a welcoming lap. Belle enjoys peaceful moments and can often be found on her favorite window perch, quietly watching the world go by. She will thrive in a loving home that appreciates mature cats with established personalities. If you would like to meet Belle, please complete an adoption application at queencitycatsvt.org.

Story
If you're looking for a handsome, loyal, lap cat, look no further - Henry is an absolute snuggle bug! He curls up in your lap or will lie on your chest, purring and kneading away. Henry loves catnip and is very determined at figuring out treat puzzles; he has a good appetite and uses the litter box like a champ. This sweet tabby boy will make someone very happy. Henry prefers a quiet home and is seeking a patient adopter who will continue to work on earning his trust and gently eliminating his fear of unknown noises. An environment without small children, dogs, or other cats, will be best for Henry. He is estimated between 4 and 5 years old. If you want to meet this lovely lad, complete an adoption application at queencitycatsvt.org.
