Domestic Shorthair kittens & cats in Medford, Massachusetts

Hi there! My name is Tinkerbell and I am a pretty 5-year-old female. My owner went into a nursing home and I’m looking for a new forever home. I’m a really sweet girl who will follow you around like a dog. I love being in your company and sitting beside you, I would do best in a quiet home. I love having your attention so I’d be best with the family that is home more than not. I would be fine with children that are older. I’ve always been an only cat, so I think I’d be happiest as the only pet in the home. I'm available through Kitty Connection in Medford.

Hi! My name is Craig! I am a handsome 3 year old male with black soft and sleek fur. I am a kitty with a big heart and even a bigger love for window gazing ,being a couch potato and getting all the belly rubs that I possibly can! I am a bit shy at first, but if you give me a little time I will be wanting to soak up all of your attention. I get along with my foster mom’s kitties very well and also her dogs she was surprised at how well I did. Nothing bothers me not even the vacuum! I love to play all day with my foster sisters we have so much fun. If you’re dreaming of a loyal companion who loves to snuggle and you like to give belly rubs look no further! I’m right and ready for my forever family! Could it be you? I must have another cat in my home! I'm available through Kitty Connection in Medford.

Hi, we're Lucy and Ethel, two 5 year old friends hoping to find a forever home together. We are the most loving cats! I'm Ethel, the brown tabby. I am so friendly and love everyone I meet! I love being pet and brushed, and enjoy playing with wand toys, catnip, and running around. I'm healthy and have a lot of energy, but I am overweight and will need an adopter who will help get me to the right weight. My friend Lucy is the orange kitty. She can be scared and shy when first introduced to a new place and will need some time to settle in. But after that, Lucy loves being pampered and brushed and is a non-stop purr machine. She will also headbutt you to let you know when you're not petting her enough.

Hi there! My name is Kitty and I am a 3-year-old female. I am a very friendly lady and I love to play. I love having your attention and will follow you around to beg for pets, but I'll let you know once I've had enough. I get along well with other cats even though I’m not looking to be best buddies with anybody. I’m a very independent girl, but I love when my foster mom plays with me! I love playing with laser lights and I'm a lot of fun to watch. I can play pretty rough if I have a lot of pent-up energy! If you're looking for a friendly but independent companion, I'm the girl for you! I need to be adopted by an experience cat owner who will know how to read my body language. I'm available through Kitty Connection in Medford.

Hello! We’re Winsta (5-year-old female) and Opal (1.5-year-old male). We’re believed to be a mother-son pair and were rescued by a kind Samaritan after our family left us behind when they moved. We love making biscuits, cozying up on your lap, “sharing” your bed, and watching the resident pigeons from the windowsill (though we really wish our foster parents could have one of those cool window bird feeders). While technically out of reach, we haven’t shown a strong interest in inspecting any of the houseplants (or high areas in general, for that matter). We’re well-fed and at an optimal weight, but that doesn’t stop us from trying to guilt our foster parents into thinking we’re starving. It’s worked twice so far, but they seem to have caught on. Winsta: Despite my small stature, I inhale and put away my Fancy Feast at a rate that would perplex a physicist. This made my foster mom nervous (something about carpeting?), but I’ve shown her I can keep it down (I was also VERY vocally opposed to her attempts to pace me with smaller portions). I love pretending the floor is lava as I make my way across the apartment, leaping from furniture to furniture. My favorite place to be is the papasan chair, which I sometimes share with Opal, but other times I let out a long groan when I want me-time. Opal: Privacy? Not part of my vocabulary. Personal space? Never heard of her. I feel and make myself at home the minute I step foot inside. My favorite things are draw strings, lasers, and your attention. If you stop petting me, I’ll forcefully throw my body at you or headbutt your hand like a goat until you relent. I love doing whatever you’re doing and walking wherever you’re (about to be) walking, so if I had a favorite song, it’d probably be something like “Every Breath You Take” by The Police or “We Go Together” from Grease. From Our Foster Parents: Despite all of the recent stress and changes in their lives, these two are so trusting, gentle, and eager for your companionship and their forever home! We are both absolutely amazing with children and adore the kids in our foster home! Winsta is more timid than Opal, but with the right introductions, we think they’d both adapt well to other cats, and respectful dogs. We are available through Kitty Connection in Medford!

Meow! We are Bubbles and Bluey and we are a bonded pair of sisters who will be turning one this month! We are sweet girls who love to snuggle and play together. We've grown up together and spend basically every minute of our time together. We cant wait to find our forever home! We are available through Kitty Connection in Medford.

Her tail had to be amputated, and she was sent to Black Cat Rescue to heal. Despite the hardships she has faced, Midnight has shown remarkable resilience and strength. With the care and support of her foster human, she has made incredible progress. Her incontinence is now manageable with the help of a diaper, and she has adapted to her new circumstances with grace and determination. Midnight is now ready for her next chapter, a loving home where she can receive the care and attention she deserves. She is a sweet and affectionate cat, with a playful spirit that shines bright. She even still likes dogs!! All she needs is a chance to show you the love and joy she has to offer. Please consider opening your heart and home to Midnight. She has so much love to give and is ready to become a cherished member of your family. Together, we can give Midnight the happy ending she deserves. Here's what her foster human has to say about Midnight: How would you describe the cat's general personality? Midnight is very outgoing and active.  She thinks the world is her oyster.  She doesn't hide, even when first entering a space (including the NBC studios). Does the cat enjoy being pet? If yes, on what parts of its body does the cat like to be pet?   Midnight loves being petted.  She often stretches up and puts her legs on my knees when I'm sitting so I can rub her head and ears.     Also, if I rub her backside briskly, just above her tail, she will pee or poop if she has something  ready to go.  Recently, she's been volunteering to stand in the catbox for this, which is really helpful. . Are there any parts of its body that the cat does NOT like being touched?   Don't pet her backside above the tail if you don't want her to pee or poop.  Also, she is such an active cat that she sometimes won't stand still long enough to be petted, but we still get lots of pets in.   Does the cat come on your lap?     Does the cat like to be held? She wants to come up on my lap and she doesn't mind being held, but we are limited by the fact that she may pee or poop on me.  Sometimes I put a cloth on my lap so we can cuddle.  She also likes to climb up on my shoulders when I'm sitting in the kitchen.   Does the cat sleep in your bed?   I'll bet she would if I could let her. Does the cat seek your attention? Does the cat like to play? What are the cat's favorite games and toys? Midnight absolutely loves attention, either from people or other pets and is always up for playing.  She loves her pole toy and anything that she can bat around on the floor.  She also likes batting at Arvid the dog (who doesn't seem to mind). How vocal is the cat? What kinds of sounds does the cat make?   Midnight isn't a big talker and doesn't cry to get through doors, etc. but she has a very cute little meow when she wants to tell me something. Does the cat scratch a scratcher? If no, please explain   Yes, Midnight likes both her cardboard scratcher and to get a long scratch in anytime that she can get to the flat-weave rugs (when she escapes into the livingroom). . Does the cat always use the litter box? If no, please explain. Midnight likes the catbox and will go in and 'pretend' to poop, then scratch around in the litter.  She does occasionally get a poop in the box but as often as not her poops will end up elsewhere.  She doesn't seem to be able to push them out voluntarily without help.     That being said, as I mentioned before, she will poop and pee if I rub her tail end and she is starting to volunteer to do that.  I'm guessing that she is more comfortable with the poops out and appreciates the help.  This is a change from a few months ago when she often wouldn't stand still to have me rub her tail end and make her poop.     I've been making sure she has plenty of time to run around and get exercise on the theory that that will help her to strengthen her back end and perhaps help with the poop coordination.  (She does a lot of running and jumping around now that we've figured out how to poop-proof larger areas of the house. What food and frequency is the cat currently eating? Is the cat picky about food?   I've been feeding Midnight Royal Canin dental food (Dr. Leavey recommended that for another cat to keep weight in line).  I feed about 3/4 cups per day - sometimes I put out more and she seems to self-regulate her intake. What is the cat's favorite treat? Pretty much anything - I give her freeze-dried salmon or any dry cat treats that we have on hand.  She also likes the pate treats. Does the cat ever swat (claws in) at you? If so, under what circumstances?   Midnight likes to play and will swat at me and Arvid for fun.     Has the cat ever scratched (claws out) you?   Midnight rarely scratches but has clawed me when she is very anxious (at the cat event) or when I tried to get her into a diaper when she had already told me no.  That said, she doesn't scratch me or complain even when I have to put her back into her part of the house after an escape to the livingroom. Does the cat ever nip (teeth without breaking skin) you? Has the cat ever bitten you (breaking skin)? No, she hasn't nipped or bitten me. To the best of your knowledge, how does the cat react to new people? Social? Fearful?   Midnight is super friendly with anyone who comes to visit and was either friendly or tolerant with everybody on her outings, except when she'd really had enough at the Boston cat event.  She loves playing with my dog and me and tried to befriend Hugo, my friend's cat who came to stay with us (in his own segregated part of the house)   I think Midnight would love living in a home with other pets, especially if she doesn't recover the ability to reliably use the catbox and so can't sit on laps or sleep with people. Does that cat have any cute/quirky traits that aren’t covered by the previous questions?   As mentioned, Midnight is about the most outgoing, social cat I've ever met.  Also, she is really soft and super plush which isn't really a trait, but makes her very pretty and really enjoyable to pet. In your opinion, what is the best thing about the cat? Why should an adopter choose THIS cat to adopt?   If Midnight could use the catbox reliably, she would be just about perfect.  Only people who don't want a cat who is super friendly and interactive should steer away.   Just a guess, but she might be quite dominant in a multi-cat household - she is not at all shy around other cats. What are the cat's challenges and how have you found to best manage them?   Her challenge is just the obvious one.  We have to cover everything with cloths and pads to manage her pee/poop.     I still hope that she will recover her catbox skills, but she might not.  Things have definitely gotten easier over time, but that is partly because I'm getting better at Midnight-proofing the areas she has access to.  That said, she is offering a glimmer of hope so, fingers crossed!

Martini  is a sweet old lady who loves sleeping and getting pet. She is very relaxed. She is really affectionate and people-oriented, but super chill at the same time -- she comes to check on me from time to time, and she likes to cuddle up at night, but otherwise she is happy to nap the day away. Does the cat enjoy being pet? Yes! If yes, on what parts of its body does the cat like to be pet? She loves getting scratched on the head and underneath her chin, and she loves getting brushed on her cheeks Are there any parts of its body that the cat does NOT like being touched? I did not discover any particular spots, but she can sometimes get overstimulated. She will gently nip or hiss when she's had enough. Does the cat come on your lap? No, but she often hangs out in the same room or beside me on the couch Does the cat like to be held? No Does the cat sleep in your bed? Yes! She sleeps in my bed every night Does the cat seek your attention? Yes Does the cat like to play? Not particularly -- she'll sometimes kick around a toy for a few seconds but I haven't seen any toys that hold her attention much What are the cat's favorite games and toys? She likes the small catnip fish, and she'll sometimes swat around a toy mouse How vocal is the cat? She's very vocal! What kinds of sounds does the cat make? She has a distinctive scratchy meow, like a rusty door hinge (or maybe a chain smoker?) I call it her "grandma meow". She meows at me a lot in the morning. She also sometimes meows very loudly from the other side of the house -- I will meow back at her and we can go back and forth for a while. She also has the loudest purr I've ever heard -- I can hear her halfway across the room! Does the cat scratch a scratcher? Yes Does the cat always use the litter box? Yes What food and frequency is the cat currently eating? Fancy Feast chicken feast, classic pate What is the cat's favorite treat? She likes Temptations and canned tuna. She really likes salami too but I only give her some once in a while, it's not very healthy Does the cat ever swat (claws in) at you? If so, under what circumstances? She has once or twice, when she was playing with the catnip toy and I reached in to pet her -- she seemed to want to play with my hands Has the cat ever scratched (claws out) you? No Does the cat ever nip (teeth without breaking skin) you? Once or twice Has the cat ever bitten you (breaking skin)? No To the best of your knowledge, how does the cat react to new people? Social? Fearful? She is generally fearful at first and will hide, but she can easily be bribed with Temptations Does that cat have any cute/quirky traits that aren’t covered by the previous questions? She purrs a LOT -- when she sleeps next to me she is constantly purring. She likes to sniff the ground and she will sniff and purr at the same time, so it sounds like a snorting noise.  In your opinion, what is the best thing about the cat? Why should an adopter choose THIS cat to adopt? I would say her super loud purr. I think an adopter should choose  Martini  because she clearly has so much love to give -- she warmed up to me so much in just 2-3 months, and I am sure she will bond with someone wonderfully when she finds her home. What are the cat's challenges and how have you found to best manage them? Martini  needs to take medication for her chronic constipation. It is a liquid med and the important thing is that she takes the entire dose. Giving it to her orally was difficult, but I figured out how to make her accept her food with the meds mixed in by splitting it into 2 daily doses and feeding on a regular schedule. She also should only eat wet food, preferably mixed with a bit of water. It takes a minute or two longer than usual to feed her because the food needs to be mixed each time, but it's totally manageable.    To learn more about adopting this cat in Massachusetts, please visit www.blackcatrescue.com or fill out an Adoption Profile at https://blackcatrescue.com/adopt-cat-boston.  Do not contact through the links on this site.

She doesn’t seek out affection, which some people might not like (i.e. not a lap cat or a “velcro kitty”). However, she purrs generously and is receptive to pets.
