Story
MEET KAHLUA! This senior kitty truly deserves her very own loving family!!! Kahlua was rescued when we discovered that she and her babies, Chase and Chance, were in serious trouble living in an area where houses were abandoned, boarded up, and partially destroyed by fire! A very kind homeless man was trying to feed them pizza and whatever else he could find to feed them, and that is how they were surviving! The one baby, Chase, had a horrible respiratory infection and his brother, Chance, had been thrown out of the window of the second floor of the abandoned building. They would not have survived much longer! Kahlua tried to do her best with her babies under the conditions she was living in! We rescued all three of them and they were all vetted and doing very well now!!! Kahlua, along with Chase and Chance, are all up for adoption now!!! You can also read about Chase and Chance on our Adoptable Pet List!! Kahlua has been spayed, received her vaccinations, is microchipped and is now waiting for her very own family! She is a little shy at first, but once you start petting her, she's all purrs and rubs!! Won't you open your home to a kitty who is so deserving of having a happy life?! Please email laydeejoey@aol.com for more information on this wonderful mom!

Story
Dude and Girl are a pair of energetic and affectionate 3-year-old siblings who have been inseparable since birth. These lovable cats are not just companions; they're family. They thrive on human interaction and have a special knack for stealing hearts with their playful antics and loving purrs. They both have boundless energy and love engaging in interactive play (the boy especially.) They'll keep you entertained with their acrobatics and playful antics. These cats are true cuddle enthusiasts. Expect plenty of purring and affectionate nudges when you're around.

Story
I am looking to rehome my cat Erika. Unfortunately, due to family reasons I am having to locate back to the UK and do not want to put her through this horrendous move. I just think it wouldn't be fair on her. I would just really like her to go to a loving home where she can get all the snuggles and cuddles she deserves. Erika was born Apr 22nd 2015 and is currently 8 years old, about 14lbs. She had the “distemper” shot when she was a kitten, is fully spayed and up to date on her rabies shots. She is an indoor cat only. No illnesses and does not need medical attention. Erika is fine with kids and extremely playful. She is not shy at all with strangers. She definitely likes elevated areas where she can observe everything. She likes to give hugs and kisses.

Priscilla is Blind - but she has no idea! This beauty is being bullied and in a need of a new home. She turned 9 on Oct 15 and has been with me since 11 weeks of age. Spayed. No issue w/ liter box. She knows her name. Priscilla was born with under developed eyes and had them removed at 5 years old. She is vetted yearly with no health issues and current on all vaccines (i have all records). She is a complete love and when you wake she will be sleeping as close to her human as possible. She loves her trees. A fly in the home - no worry - they stand no chance. She is independent but does love to snuggle. Please consider opening your heart and home to a sweet lady who is smart and so loving.

Story
Romeo and Julietta are siblings and are a bonded pair. They were found in the parking lot of Starbucks in October and were trapped and neutered, but we didnt have the heart to put them back outside for a long cold winter ahead. We decided we would foster them and try and socialize them but I knew I couldnt keep them. They have been in our heated garage and they are being well taken care of. We know they are ready for a home environment and would love to find them their furever home together. Romeo likes the attention and is more outgoing than his sister but she relies on him to feel more comfortable around people. She is very sweet. They have both come a long way since we have had them and are around a year old now.They love to get treats, play with their toys and love to sit in the sun and look out the window and watch the world go by.If you are able and willing to open your heart and your home and take in Romeo and Juliet it is imperative they remain together. One would be lost without the other. Please know that you will need a gentle voice, a gentle touch and a bit of patience so that Romeo and Juliet can build their trust and love for their new family. They have comforted each other through thick and thin and have been so grateful not to wonder each day where they will sleep or get their next meal. Once they feel comfortable, they will give you hours of unconditional love. They will show how much they appreciate the opportunity to have a forever family each time you are close to them and you hear them purr!Thank you for considering adopting this precious pair.

Story
Bunnie is a fighter and an incredibly special cat. He was found living in a construction site. One day he decided to ask for help from one of the colony feeders in the area. He sat underneath a mailbox crying for days. We were able to take him into foster care and realized something was wrong. He was eating and eating and eating and not growing. And then his breathing became laborious. He was originally diagnosed with FIP, a fatal disease (although treatable through black market drugs). Two vets told us to euthanize. We started to treat for FIP but that diagnosis just didn’t sit right. Kittens dying from FIP don’t eat! And he was eating. And because he was eating, we knew he wanted to live. Ramapo-Bergen Animal Refuge stepped up to get him an emergency appointment at Oradell Animal Hospital. It was quickly discovered that he did not have FIP but his diaphragm was herniated and his intestines were pushing up against his lungs. No wonder he was having a hard time breathing! He recovered from his surgery very well. He gained all the weight he needed to gain. He was neutered and now he’s ready for his own furrever home. Bunnie is a fighter and a very special cat. He’s about 8 months old now. Shy at first, he quickly warms up to you. His fosters call him the “best cat ever.” He needs a home with another cat buddy. Bunnie is neutered, FeLV/FIV negative and updated on vaccines. He has no health issues now! To apply for this special Bunnie, visit gratefulpawsnj.com/adopt
