Domestic Mediumhair kittens & cats in Montpelier, Vermont

SPECIAL NEEDS - MEDICALEaston came to CVHS with his brother Finley due to some lifestyle changes that were too much for them. He is timid at first with new people, but once he gets to know you, he loves to be petted! He is a sweet boy who would love to curl up next to you on the couch. He previously has been mostly indoors, with occasionally being able to roam outside. He does have prior experience living with canines and children, and did well with them, but may prefer a calmer, quieter home due to his shyer personality. He has done well with his feline roommates here in our colony rooms. For a while we pulled Easton off our website, as we were concerned we were seeing signs of stress, as Easton was plucking his fur. Bloodwork showed that this handsome cat struggles with high blood pressure. We`ve worked with our vet to adjust medications over the last few weeks, and he`s at a good dosage that a willing adopter can continue with him twice a day orally, and the medication is not expensive. He takes his medication like a champ, and appears to be feeling so much better. Do you have a place in your heart and home for a feline who needs a little more care?

Cleo came back to CVHS after 11 years with her beloved adopter, when he passed away from cancer. Her person, Morgan, was very well known in the community, and even when working hard to advocate for stable housing for all, he made sure to share his love of Cleo with everyone he met. She was the apple of his eye, and she got him through some tough times. Cleo is now in need of a new home, but she isn’t going to fit in just anywhere; she needs a special place. Cleo needs to be the only pet in the home, and she needs someone with great patience, and understanding not to push her buttons. She wants attention and affection on her terms, and will not hesitate to smack you if you push past her boundaries. She did spend time with Morgan’s granddaughter, and never misbehaved, but we feel strongly she should not live with children. She spent many happy hours warming Morgan’s lap, and though it may take her a little time to adjust to a new home, a lap is probably what she’ll love the most.When Cleo first came to us, she was clearly grieving the loss of Morgan, and it took her a while to start eating again, and even longer to seek attention from staff. Now when we enter her room, she comes out from wherever she`s made herself comfortable (in a crate, under a blanket, under the bench), and rubs around our legs, and happily accepts gentle pets.Cleo also needs someone to help her with weight loss, as well as making sure she gets her meds in her meals of wet food each day. She has arthritis pain, and gabapentin is helping her with that, as well as with her anxiety.The other major quirk of Cleo’s is that she is aggressively reactive to vet care and forced confinement post-surgery (she’s had multiple dental extractions), so precautions need to be taken when she needs to go to the vet. We can discuss that in detail with potential adopters.

Casey is an extremely affectionate and lovely girl. We have a hard time getting a non-blurry picture of her because she is constantly trying to nudge and snuggle staff and visitors! She will make an amazing companion for someone who wants a super sweet and attentive kitty!

Chess is pure cuteness in kitten form! He plays and snuggles with his siblings and it would be amazing if he could be adopted with one of them or at least have another cat buddy in a new home.

Hi there, I’m Summer! I’m a refined, sun-loving lady , about 5 years young, looking for a calm and cozy home . My favorite pastimes include lounging in warm sunbeams, gazing out the window like the queen I am , and gracing my humans with affection—on my terms, of course. I’ll swing by for some pets and happily curl up next to you when the mood strikes, but I do value my independence . I’m a very quiet girl, so if you’re looking for a peaceful companion, I might just be your perfect match . I prefer to be the only furry royalty in the house (other animals totally cramp my style), but I’d make a wonderful friend for someone who wants a low-maintenance, mellow buddy. Despite my chonky physique, I eat a normal amount and don’t ask for much—just a comfy spot and someone to admire my fabulousness . Think we’d be a good match? Let’s meet!
