Story
Meet Lola & Wishbone Lola and Wishbone came to our shelter as scared little 6-week-old kittens, and they’ve been inseparable ever since. This bonded pair must be adopted together—Wishbone leans on confident, adventurous Lola for reassurance as he continues to blossom. Lola is the brave explorer of the duo, while Wishbone is still shy and taking things at his own gentle pace. With an experienced cat owner and a patient, loving home, these two will truly thrive. If you’re ready to open your heart to a pair of sweet, devoted companions, Lola and Wishbone are waiting for you. November 25, 2025, 3:28 pm

Story
Lorenzo – Full of Swagger and Charm 🖤 DOB: 11/23/2024 Lorenzo is a stunning young male with glossy black fur and the confident walk to match. He moves with the grace of a runway model and the curiosity of an explorer. This big, energetic boy loves his catnip, the laser pointer, and chasing wand toys. He’s a bright, confident cat and is learning to walk on a harness. Beneath the swagger, Lorenzo also has a sweet, affectionate side and can be an absolute lovebug. He’s still a young tomcat finding his rhythm after being recently rescued and neutered, but we think he’s entertaining and very charming. If you’re looking for a striking, playful companion with loads of personality, Lorenzo’s your guy. To meet Lorenzo, please submit our online adoption application (https://www.fofct.org/adoption-application). Applicants should live within 45 miles of Stamford, CT.

Story
Holly - Always Ready for the Next Adventure Estimated Birthday: 8/31/24 Holly is a bright-eyed, energetic kitty who’s always ready for the next adventure. She loves to play with toys, with her foster’s resident cat, or all on her own. She’s independent enough to keep herself entertained, but she also enjoys a good petting session and will sometimes curl up in a lap or on the bed for a rest. She’s a bright girl who knows her name and enjoys “helping” her foster during work-from-home days. Holly is OK with being held for a little while, but she’ll politely wiggle free when it’s time to get moving again. If you’re looking for a cat with plenty of personality — equal parts playful, curious, and affectionate — Holly might be the perfect match. Please begin by submitting the online adoption application on our website (https://www.fofct.org/adoption-application). Adopters must live within 45 miles of Stamford, CT.

Story
DOB 1/1/2022 Meet Levi, a remarkable survivor in need of a forever home! Levi's journey hasn't been easy. He was brought to us physically abused and painfully thin. Despite his past, Levi has emerged as a resilient, fun-loving, and affectionate boy eager to share his love with someone special. Levi thrives on human interaction, from gentle pets to spirited playtime - he adores it all! However, living in a cage surrounded by other cats is frustrating him. He is so ready for the comfort and warmth of a home environment without any other felines. One of Levi's admirers has already paid his adoption fee, so all he needs now is a forever home! Levi tested positive for FIV (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus), but he is healthy, and his expected lifespan is as bright as any other cat with proper care and love. We are looking for a loving foster-to-adopt home for this sweet boy. If you're ready to open your heart and home to this incredible survivor, please complete the online adoption or foster application on our website: https://www.fofct.org/adoption-application. Adopters must live within 45 miles of Stamford, CT.
