Havana Brown kittens & cats in Burlington, Vermont

Meet Mercy, the youngest senior tuxie in the Northeast! She's playful, curious, and quite energetic for an 11-year-old cat. She likes to chase spring toys, foil balls, and toy mice, but nothing gets her running faster than her favorite crunchy treat tossed across the room. She also enjoys "killing" a good feather toy. She has a great appetite, eats wet food and kibble, and looks forward to her three meals a day. Mercy requires an understanding adopter with a strong knowledge of and respect for cat behavior and their unique body language. Because she was declawed and mishandled when she was young, she can get overstimulated more quickly than most cats. She needs someone who wants her despite being declawed, not because she's declawed. Her ideal home is a calm, quiet environment without children, where she is the only pet in the household for the rest of her life. Building a meaningful relationship with Mercy will take some time and understanding, but the reward is highly gratifying. Her foster mom has a great relationship with her because she listens to Mercy and lets her decide when she wants to be touched and when she needs to be left alone. She thrives on a consistent routine and uses the litter box perfectly. She will go to her forever home with all her things- litter box, carrier, cat bed, and her most prized possession- her brush. Her sweet side is heartwarming- she enjoys daily snuggle sessions with her foster mom. She is a great work companion and will sit beside you quietly, enjoying your company. She is spayed, microchipped, FIV/FeLV negative, and current on vaccines. If you want to give Mercy the loving home she deserves, please fill out an application at queencitycatsvt.org/adopt.

Mr. Spats (aka Spatz) is a shy, but oh-so handsome, good boy. You might not see a lot of him at first, but with the right treats and gentle attention, he will slowly emerge from his hiding spot. He will approach with caution until you earn his trust. He loves catnip, which is great enrichment for him. Luckily he likes to be brushed since grooming should be part of his daily routine. You might find what his foster family lovingly calls "Spatz balls" of hair around the house, which helps when trying to find his hiding spots. He would do best in a home with patient and present adults who are willing to work with Spatz until he feels comfortable. This sweet boy has had a rough couple of years and is ready to settle into his forever home. He does well with other cats. If you're interested in meeting Spatz, complete an adoption application at queencitycatsvt.org/adopt.

Scout is a petite, 9-month-old kitten who was rescued with several other cats, all of whom are boys. She is timid at an initial meeting, but once she warms up, she will happily greet you with her cute little “meow”. Scout is affectionate in her own way; she'll curl up next to you while you sleep, or come sit with you on the couch and hang out. She doesn’t love being picked up, but is slowly getting more comfortable with the concept. She loves Churu treats and a good meal (she is a hungry girl!). She is most comfortable with other cats and would love a home with feline friends or she can be adopted with one of the boys (Edgar, Boo Radley, Linton, Darcy) she already knows. She has spent the most time with her brother Truman. Scout is curious and playful- she likes exploring little hiding spots and she is learning how to play with toys. She's also playful with other young-spirited cats. Scout would be a lovely addition to a quiet, low-key family.
