Domestic Shorthair

Male, 5 yrs 10 mos

Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Chester is a gentle, resilient boy who has truly come into his own in foster care. Once he felt safe, his personality blossomed — now he happily chats in the sweetest little chirps, keeps you company during TV time, and loves napping in a warm window while bird-watching. He is independent in nature but would likely benefit from a friendly, confident cat to help him adjust in a new environment, and he has already learned to peacefully coexist with respectful dogs. Chester is FIV-positive, which simply means he has a slightly different immune system — he can live a long, happy life and can safely live with FIV-negative cats. He also has no teeth, so there’s absolutely no biting — just a soft, loving, low-drama companion who is looking for a home where his person will cherish him and keep a watchful, caring eye on this very special boy. ##2447778##

Story
Louise loves humans, other cats, and is the first foster to entice her 20 lb canine foster brother to play & not just be a snuggle buddy.   She does still get startled easily and needs a quieter home with at least one feline companion.  She can get so into rolling around for pets that she looks like an acrobat. She is the perfect amount of sweet & sass. As in, she knows when she's being called enough to come.. if she feels like it.  In her foster home the sound of a bell would immediately bring her from wherever she was to play, fuzzy worms are her favorite toy.  She & her sister waited for her foster mom to come to bed every night for snuggles. She is overflowing with personality and love, if you have the patience to let her come out of her shell!   ##2330642##

Story
This beautiful ray of sunshine is Autumn. She is FULL of energy and will keep you busy and entertained. She loves a good snuggle and wil let you know when she's done. She can be a little chatty at times especially when she's asking for your attention. Autumn is curious makes friends with humans pretty quickly.  Autumn came into rescue in pretty rough shape as a baby. Her eyes and overall health  have improved tremendously. She was unfortunately diagnosed with both feline herpes and mycoplasma which means she can be a carrier for life. She would be best placed as an only kitty or with others like her.  ##1538884##

Story
Ruby is a playful, curious young girl who loves being right in the middle of everything. She’s always exploring, chasing toys, and making her own fun—especially when there’s a ball or laser pointer involved. She’s very affectionate and enjoys attention, often settling in next to you once she’s tired from playtime. Ruby has a big personality and brings both energy and sweetness to her home. Ruby does well with other cats and is learning that dogs can be okay with proper introductions. Because she can play a little rough at times, she would do best with older children who understand kitten behavior. Ruby is not bonded with her mom, Pumpkin, and can be adopted separately. She would thrive in a home with another playful cat or an adopter ready to keep her active and engaged. If you’re looking for a fun, social companion with lots of personality, Ruby is ready to meet you! ##2719319##

Story
Hi furriends! My name is Tom, and my foster mom says I'm one of the sweetest kitties she's met. I'm very shy and take a lot of time to warm up to humans.  I like to get pets once a trust you but, I don't like to be held. I may curl up beside you in bed at night though. I like the laser chase game and I also like to play with other felines. They help bring out my confidence and I would do best in a home with another friendly feline. I'm looking for a patient, understanding home where I can be accepted as I am. Could it be with you?    ##992749##

Story
Mars (M) and Diana (F) are a bonded pair that cannot be separated. They eat together, sleep together, explore and play together. Three cats of their litter was found romaning the neighborhood near a busy road, one kitten was killed by a car and the weather was getting cold so we decided to take the other two inside. While they are not receptive to being pet or handled, they are very affectionate during feeding times and will lounge close by. Immense progress has been made and there'd likely be even more progress made if we didnt have so many animals in our home. They coexist beautifully with our other cat and even though they are easily annoyed by the dogs, they've coexisted quite harmoniously over the last few months. Mars is missing half of his front leg that has been checked out by a vet. This does not impact his mobility at all, he runs, jumps, plays, etc.

Good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs special attention, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Looking to rehome an 6 or 7 year old adult female spayed cat to the right home only. She needs a home with no other cats. She has recently started to show territorial behavior (marking/peeing) and aggression toward my other cats. However, she has previously lived successfully with a calm dog and may do well in a home with a cat friendly dog or as the only pet. She is affectionate on her own terms and very loyal. She is a polydactyl and has many fingers, hence her name. I am being completely honest about her behavior because I want this to be her last home, not a temporary placement. Located in the Scranton area. I am willing to pay for a checkup for her to assure she is up to date on shots and healthy. I love her very much and need to do what is best.
