Persian kittens & cats in Poughkeepsie, New York

Cleopatra is our new 7 yr old exotic kitty to be ready for her furrever home. She is truly amazing but has come from a sad background. Cleo was surrendered to us after her owner went into hospice. When we found her, she was hiding in an oven drawer, terrified, and matted to such an extent it was heartbreaking to say the least. She had been neglected for what can guess is at least a year, with matted fur that was impossible to remove except at a vet with many many extra hands and professionals. Her skin below the mattes was severely damaged and incredibly painful for her and it tooks several months for us to finally see relief in sight. Cleo is unbelievably sweet and gentle despite her ordeal. Now, much healthier again, she is finally ready for a new home. She has had all medical done and cleared and just needs a quiet home - no loud kids or pets please. We were told she did at one point have another cat buddy, so that would prob work out, but dogs aren't a good idea. She takes transition hard, so new family would need to have patience and MUST have Persian experience to understand grooming and future care. This is important as her former owner did not care for her properly and we cannot have this happen again as she is far too sweet. So please make sure to HIGHLY research Persians before applying.

They really love each other. He protects her and she feels safe with him. Both are cuddly and playful but shadow is more confident. . She is very friendly, cuddly and playful.  Herstory: abandoned as a skinny kitten with severe dehydration. I named her Warda/flower, because she carries the same quiet beauty and softness of a flower. She’s gentle, calm and effortlessly brings a sense of peace wherever she goes. Just like a flower brightens a space without asking for attention, Flower's presence is tender, comforting, and full of warmth.Shadow is a 3.5y Maine Coon mix who is literally a shadow cat (meaning he is your shadow:)!History: abandoned, I left him some food, but he followed me to my car--hence the name. I found him an adopter who returned him due to accommodation restrictions but when I picked him up, I discovered he was not cared for as agreed. He was kept in a small room with small litter tray. She told me he didn’t like to play and his hair was very matted. I took him to the second adopter who promised to care for him only to return him after few days because her cat hissed once at him so I took him back. He is like a big kitten. Gentle, cuddly and playful! He is very bonded to Flower and must be adopted with her.

After treatment he spent days sleeping in bed which was heartbreaking because we felt he waited to be safe again for too long. He is a super gentle and kind soul. He is great with other cats and children. He loves to cuddle all the time and has a quiet nature so a quiet cat home with another quiet cat would be his ideal setting.   no health issues but he did have to have some of his teeth extracted  All kittens are adoptable in pairs only unless another age appropriate cat is in residence.  Most of our adult cats also like cat company (most fosters are multicat homes).  Please read the following article on cat food to see why no dry: www.catinfo.org  Facebook:Zani's Furry Friends ZFF (weekly adoption event info posted there) Twitter: zanisff  Instagram: zanisfurryfriends   All cats are in the NY area.  Cats are spayed/neutered, UTD on age appropriate vaccines, Rabies vaxed, and microchipped.  All are in the NY/NJ area but we will adopt out of state to the purrfect home and in some cases, we can arrange transport.  Please go to our site      https://zanisfurryfriends.org      fill out an application and return to   cats@zanisfurryfriends.org   Please note: kittens must be adopted in pairs or to households with age appropriate cat(s) to ensure proper socialization and companionship.
