Story
Cruella's Story Meet Cruella 7-month-old Female | Brown Tabby Cruella is a sweet, resilient little tabby who’s ready to find her forever home. She came to our shelter as a stray with her sisters, Ursula and Maleficent. Early on, Cruella and Ursula were battling a severe upper respiratory infection, but with plenty of TLC and time in our ISO room, all three girls made a full recovery. Cruella has some minor scarring on one eye from her illness, but it doesn’t affect her vision—or her stunning beauty. She may be a bit hand-shy at first, so she’s looking for a patient, experienced cat adopter who understands that trust takes time. With a gentle touch and a calm environment, Cruella will blossom into a loyal, loving companion. If you’re ready to give this special girl the second chance she deserves, please apply to adopt her here: https://www.gloucestercountynj.gov/FormCenter/Animal-Shelter-5/PreAdoption-Application-50

Story
Piranha's Story Piranha 🖤 8-month-old male | Black kitten | Arrived 12/3/25 Meet Piranha—an energetic, sleek black kitten with a big personality and even bigger play drive! Still very much a “fresh kitten,” Piranha is friendly and curious, but he didn’t have much early experience with gentle human handling. Because of that (and possibly being a solo kitten), he sometimes gets a little too enthusiastic during play and may nip or bite at hands. Piranha isn’t being mean—he’s playful, learning, and full of kitten energy. He’ll do best with an adopter who understands young cats and can help him channel that energy into appropriate play using wand toys, kickers, and enrichment (hands are not toys!). With patience, consistency, and positive redirection, Piranha has great potential to grow into a wonderful companion. This bold little guy would thrive in a home ready to work with a smart, active kitten who just needs guidance and structure. If you’re looking for a fun project cat with lots of personality, Piranha might be your perfect match! Please apply for Piranha at https://www.gloucestercountynj.gov/FormCenter/Animal-Shelter-5/PreAdoption-Application-50

Story
Oliver, (male) 6yrs, has been with us since he was just 6 weeks old. A friend found him and his siblings on the side of the road and we took him in a couple weeks later. Oliver is on a special diet because of his many food allergies. We are happy to provide you with all the canned food we have and paperwork on what he can not eat. He is such a sweet cat who loves to snuggle and play! We have a very playful 2yr old and are pregnant with our second baby. The changes have been a lot for Oliver and we have seen some behavioral changes (peeing outside the litter box). Beyond his allergies he is healthy and has incredible patience with our daughter.
