Story
Daniel has recently come to VT from Puero Rico! He was abandoned in a church and found with Nube, who is also at QCC. He is a 4 year old cat with a spirit of a kitten, playful, fun and vocal. He loves catnip, playing with wand toys and batting around catnip filled mice and bananas. Daniel loves to be petted and enjoys attention, and also likes to rest in the sun and look out the window. He is very affectionate with his caregivers and has the potential to be quite the lap cat! Sudden noises and movements scare him, so he would do best in a home with respectful/gentle older kids. He gets along great with other cats and has a very mild personality. He is just a large, happy guy. If you'd be interested in adopting this hunk of love, fill out an application on our website and stop by Queen City Cat Lounge to visit Daniel.

Story
Lily is a petite and sweet geriatric lady who loves a good cuddle! She warms up to people very quickly and makes sure nobody feels left out - she has plenty of love to go around. Playing with crinkly toys and hunting virtual birds are some of her favorite activities. When you’re doing a task, she loves to "help" get the job done. Computers are especially enticing! She's a brave and easy-going girl, except when it comes to the vacuum cleaner. Despite her age, she can jump and climb, especially when the reward is you. Her meow is quite unique- either silent or like a duck quack when she calls for attention. Lily would be a good fit for someone who is home frequently or has roommates; she loves human company and snuggling in bed with you. If you want to meet Lily, complete an adoption application at queencitycatsvt.org.

Story
Meet Pudge! She's a petit, three-year-old orange tabby. She gets excited when she sees her human and she pops up to meet your hand when you're going in for a pet. Pudge has a strong purr and she can whip up a batch of biscuits quicker than any other ginger gal in the NE. She loves to nap in a sunny window and hang out quietly with her human. We're still getting to know her personality and we know her playful, silly side will fully emerge once she's in her forever home. She and Princess previously lived together with a family, including kids and dogs- they are well-adapted! They are not bonded so Pudge can be adopted solo or into a family that has a cat-friendly male cat. If you want to meet Pudge, complete an adoption application at queencitycatsvt.org.

Story
Lilly is a lovely 15-year-old sweetheart who proves that senior cats are truly something special. She’s affectionate, devoted, and happiest when she’s the center of your world, soaking up every bit of love and attention you can give. Her charming raspy meow and adorable happy drool when she’s extra content only make her more irresistible. This golden girl is wonderfully easy to please—she’s a great eater and her twice daily medication mixes easily right into her food. She also loves spending time by the window, keeping an eye on the birds and the world outside. Lilly is gentle, great with kids, and full of warm companionship. Lilly’s perfect home would be one where she can be your one and only cat, surrounded by love, cozy spots, and people who adore her as much as she’ll adore them. If you’re looking for a sweet, soulful companion, Lilly is ready to make your home her happily ever after. If you want to meet Lilly, complete an adoption application at queencitycatsvt.org.

Story
Snoopy is a handsome gentleman who has seen his share of street life. He is estimated to be between 2 and 3 years old and came into foster care after several months of living outside. He is adjusting well to the indoor lifestyle. Unfamiliar noises still make him a bit nervous, but his favorite Churu treats help him feel brave. He also loves lots of pets and brushing from his foster family which includes gentle children. A small, quiet space will help him ease into a new environment. Once he feels safe and loved, he will reward you with his show of affection by giving you many head bumps. Sweet Snoopy is FIV+ and he will need to live indoors only (catios are okay!). We're not sure how he does with other cats yet, but will update this profile when we know more. He has no known experience with dogs. To meet Snoopy, go to queencitycatsvt.org to fill out an adoption application.

Story
**Bonded with Lainey** Lindsay has come a long way in her human socialization! She has always been a cat’s cat- befriending, cuddling and playing with, teaching, and welcoming new cats, young & old, to the Lounge. She leads with grace and patience, and is the VP of hunting wand toys, springs, little mice, balls, and treats/kibble! She has the different food puzzles at the Lounge figured out, and is quick to approach and follow humans around with interest. Her intense stare, croaky supplicant meow, and frequent use of her paws to investigate objects and knock things out of your hands leads to unending amusement for all. She has progressed immensely with humans, allowing a couple of sneaky pets while she’s distracted. She has been seen cuddling and headbutting all of the other friendly Lounge cats, and has now become very bonded with Lainey. Come to the Lounge to witness Lindsay in all her glory! She’s a special cat looking for a special home with Lainey. If you want to meet Lindsay, complete an adoption application at queencitycatsvt.org.
