Story
Meet Frittata! Frittata is a sweet girl just over 9 months old who came into our care after her previous owners were unable to provide a stable home. She’s a local rescue who’s been through a lot of change in a short amount of time, so it’s no surprise that she’s currently a bit quiet and reserved in the shelter environment. Despite her shyness, Frittata has a gentle, loving nature and a very sweet soul. She would likely thrive in a calm, quiet home where she can settle in at her own pace and feel safe and secure. Once she knows she’s finally home for good, we’re confident she’ll slowly come out of her shell and show just how special she is. If you’re looking for a soft-hearted companion who will blossom with patience, love, and stability, Frittata may be the perfect match for you.To start off the New Year, the fee has been waived for Frittata through 1/5/26. We hope that she will go to her furrever home!Apply today at capeannanimalaid.org/catapp

Story
Ashlynn is a truly special girl with a heart as big as it is kind. She was rescued after being found on the side of the road with her tiny two-week-old kittens. Despite everything she had been through, Ashlynn showed nothing but love. When tragedy struck and only two of her kittens survived, she did something extraordinary. She welcomed three orphaned kittens into her care without hesitation. She groomed them, comforted them, and loved them as if they had always been hers.Even though she was a young cat herself, Ashlynn was a devoted, patient, and nurturing mama. Now that her kittens are grown and thriving, it’s finally her turn to be cared for. She`s a very sweet, loving, and laid-back girl who enjoys affection and brings a calm, gentle presence to her surroundings. She would do wonderfully in a home looking for a loving companion- someone to share quiet moments, soft pets, and unconditional love.Ashlynn has given so much of herself to others. She’s ready to find a forever home where she can be cherished just as deeply.capeannanimalaid.org/catapp
