Story
Meet Marty! Marty is a gentle soul with a soft gray-and-white coat and the sweetest eyes. He’s shy at first and prefers quiet spaces where he can feel safe. Marty truly blossoms when he has another calm, confident cat to lean on. He’s not a people-focused cat, but with patience and understanding, he will allow gentle interaction and even enjoy quiet companionship. His ideal home is calm, low-stress, and includes a feline friend who can help him feel grounded. If you believe in creating a peaceful space and understand the beauty of a cat-to-cat bond, Marty could be the perfect addition to your home.

Story
Sassy is a beautiful calico cat who is around 1.5-2 years old. This sweet girl hasn’t had the easiest life. Prior to our rescue taking her in, she was with another rescue who adopted out of Petco and Petsmart, where she was sent. Being in a glass box was not for Sassy. Being poked, prodded and stared at every day for hours upon hours turned her from a very loving cat to a very scared and withdrawn one. This is when the rescue decided to surrender her to us where we could safely put her in a foster home. She has been in a foster home for about 3 months and is thriving now. She has come out of her shell and learned she’s safe once again. No more glass boxes for her. The foster says this about her: Friendly Vocal – Loves to talk to you Loves to explore and roam around Loves cat trees Learning to love what toys are again Gets along with other cats, but prefers her own space Would do fine with older children, ideally no young ones for Sassy Dogs would be fine with slow introductions (refer to pictures with dog in the background) Wonderful lap cat Very Entertaining Inside Only Sassy is a calmer cat that loves to lay around and just hang out. Sassy is spayed, FIV/ FLV Tested negative, current on vaccinations, microchipped, will be seen by a vet and given a clean bill of health prior to adoption. To apply to adopt you can go to our website at: www.pawsitive-Impact-animal-rescue.org This animal is currently located in Texas, but we do NOT adopt animals out in Texas due to the hundreds of animals being euthanized here daily. We do adopt in Central US and the East Coast. Transport goes to the following locations: Albany, NY Wells and Brattleboro, VT Willington, CT Port Chester, NY Dayon and Akron, OH Grove City and Bloomsburg, PA Ridgefield and Mt Laurel, NJ White Marsh and Falls Church, MD We have happily adopted hundreds of animals this way (long distance), and we do our best to make sure the animal you are applying for is best fit for your home.

Story
Azul is a stud muffin of a big boy cat. We don’t know what is bigger – his beautiful blue eyes or his enormous round head. We estimate him to weigh around 15 lbs and believe he is around 5-6 years old. Azul was found roaming a neighborhood along the Texas Mexico border, where a good Samaritan saw him and knew she had to help him. He was super scrawny, covered in fleas, tons of missing hair and scabs all over his body. After about 6 weeks, Azul is fully healed, all of his hair has grown back, and he is ready for his forever home. Despite his age, he is very playful and active. We do not recommend very young children with him as he can play a little bit rough at times. Azul is in a foster home where he is around other cats and dogs. Even though he is big, he gets along wonderfully with other cats! He has met dogs in the current foster home and has no issues with them. He can live happily with other dogs and cats in the home! Azul would love to be a lap cat and be loved on everyday and all day. He does NOT mark. Azul will be neutered, current on age-appropriate vaccinations, dewormed, microchipped and given a clean bill of health from a veterinarian prior to adoption/transport. To apply to adopt you can go to our website at: www.pawsitive-Impact-animal-rescue.org This animal is currently located in Texas, but we do NOT adopt animals out in Texas due to the hundreds of animals being euthanized here daily. We do adopt in Central US and the East Coast. The adoption fee listed INCLUDES transport from Texas to the location where this animal is posted in. Transport goes to the following locations every 2-3 weeks Albany, NY Wells and Brattleboro, VT Willington, Enfield, New Haven and Dayville, CT Port Chester, NY Dayon and Akron, OH Grove City and Bloomsburg, PA Ridgefield and Mt Laurel, NJ White Marsh and Falls Church, MD We have happily adopted hundreds of animals this way (long distance), and we do our best to make sure the animal you are applying for is best fit for your home.

Story
More than 80% of orange cats are males, and we are fortunate to have these 2 gorgeous orange girls that fall into the small percent of orange cats that are female. Butters and Honey are beautiful orange cats that were surrendered to us by the family when their owner passed away from old age. Unfortunately, none of the family members could keep them. Butters is quite a bit younger than Honey, and we believe she could have been Honeys kitten. She is only about 10-12 months old. Butters is also smaller than Honey and only weighs about 7-8 pounds. She loves to roll on her back for belly rubs whenever she’s near you. Butters absolutely loves her ears being rubbed and will let you pet her for hours. She is very much a lap cat, as well as Honey is. The foster brags about how so very sweet both girls are. Honey is about 2-3 years old and a long hair beauty. Honey is amazing. When we got her we didn’t know she was pregnant and within 2 weeks, we had 4 beautiful newborn kitties! Not only was she the BEST mom, she took on not 1, not 2, but FOUR more kittens that their mom died, and they needed a nursing mom to survive. She nursed 8 kittens, 4 not hers, and loved them all like her own. Now that she is kitten free, Honey loves to get pets and even has toys she can play with, that she enjoys playing with, and she doesn’t have to compete with her kitties. When she isn’t playing, she is napping, and she loves a nice lap to lay in! Both cats are soooo so docile. All they want to do is be next to or with their humans. Honey and Butters LOVE to be held and carried around. If you’re lonely, either Butters or Honey would make WONDERFUL companions. They are not bonded and do not have to stay together. Both are GREAT with other cats They have lived with dogs and have no issues with dogs They do good with children Love to be held 100% Lap Cats Litter box Trained Butters and Honey are spayed, microchipped, current on feline distemper and feline leukemia vaccinations, dewormed, will receive a clean bill of health from a veterinarian and the adoption fee DOES NOT INCLUDE transport to the location this post is in. The fee varies depending on which transport company we use.

Story
Little Squirrel arrived to us as a stray. She has the cutest little squeaky meow when she is trying to get your attention and is overall just so endearing. She has gained confidence in interacting with staff and volunteers and is doing great in a community room with other cats, but her new family should still be aware that she could potentially be shy when settling into a new home. We don't know about her history with dogs, so a slow and structured introduction would be recommended.
