Story
Xavier is unlike any other cat I've had before; he is extremely affectionate, curious, and playful. He plays mainly with toys and does not scratch or bite when playing. He's the type of cat to not understand personal space, meaning he will look to rub his head against your face when your laying down, and love to cozy up next to you when sleeping. Xavier is originally from Puerto Rico and moved to Cambridge on January 2026. He is about a year old and has now experienced the full extent of the seasons. He seems to be more partial towards cooler weather and loves to stare out the window at passing people, animals, and cars.I do have to disclaim that currently Xavier is suffering from medical condition which is the reason I'm trying to rehome him. If you're interested in Xavier please reach out and we can talk so more!

The nice homeowner let them stay until they were old enough to get adopted. Techno & Geisha are shy are first, and find comfort in each other. They will quickly play with anyone with a string toy, and will slowly approach you, until they feel confident to be petted. Once they trust you, they will come around and sleep in the same bed with you. They get along with the house cat and are getting used to a doggie, who regularly visits the foster home.

PLEASE READ ENTIRE LISTING We transport kittens from South Florida. There is an epidemic of cat overpopulation in South Florida. Tens of thousands of cats & kittens suffer needlessly & need a home. We transport & adopt kittens & cats that have no chance in South Florida. Please note - we are the only legal Florida rescue importer in the state of Mass. We have 3 professional transporters deliver your kitties safely to you. One person is always in the back monitoring the health & well-being of your animal. Although we love dogs they are NEVER on our transport as it adds time & stress for your kitties. Be sure to ask questions of any rescue transporting. Are they legal & how are they transported. There is a big difference. We also use flight angels. Kind volunteers who bring a cat or kitten on a plane ride as their carry-on luggage. We are so grateful for good people. We try to get the kittens as close as we can by air. TO ADOPT A KITTEN, YOU MUST ADOPT IN PAIRS OR HAVE A YOUNG CAT. Our adoption guidelines: Must be 25 years old Must adopt young kittens (6 months or less) you must have a young cat or dog or adopt in pairs UNLESS otherwise stated. Must be a previous cat owner. Must have a vet we can speak to. CT license AIR 000534 MA charity #080383 MA licensed importer #68 USDA # 88-T-0895 Meet Patches, a petite 11 month old kitten with love in her heart that needs to be unleashed and appreciated. As delicate as a flower, her gentle, shy spirit only makes you want to shower her with kisses. She loves rubbing against you and getting belly rubs. She is affectionate and highly intelligent. She can read your mind! She’s a feather wand toy fan and a catnip addict! She gets along with other cats but likes to be Queen bee. Add this precious girl to your life and experience the wow factor.

Story
Hi, I'm McGee! I'm about 4 years old, and my foster mom says I'm like a tabby Squishmallow come to life. :) I can be a little shy at first and need time and space to get comfortable (like a day or two), but once I know I'm safe I become super cuddly and loving. You can even rub my belly and pick me up! My manners are impeccable with eating and using the litter box. I'm always sweet and never, ever use my claws or teeth, even when I'm nervous. I love to play with my wand toy and can keep myself entertained with a toy mouse or ball. If you want a chill, snuggly companion who will keep you company when you work from home or are hanging out on the couch, I'm your guy! I've been good with my foster mom's boy cat and with proper introductions, could be happy in a home that has cat friends for me.

These cats are in Cambridge, Massachusetts too!

Story
Hello! This is my darling cat Ivie! Ivie is around one and a half years old and he is hands down the sweetest, silliest and most inquisitive cat everrrr. He will literally never leave your side (especially if you have food cuz he's big like that), constantly runs up to rub and greet you and your friends and is very curious about the outside world. He eats pretty much anything; he isn't picky at all and he adjusts to situations quite well. He can be a bit shy at first, but eventually, when he feels comfortable enough, he is super willing to show you unconditional love. Unfortunately, he has a bit of a pee problem and pees in spots he's not supposed to sometimes. However, this happens when he's stressed or has an unclean litter box. He gets along well with cats and people who like him. He's not aggressive and will never really strike first unless intimidated or as self-defence. He's the best cat this universe has to offer, and I hope he finds a new home that is full of love and light.

Story
Kiyoko is a pandemic cat, so she’s very people-oriented and loves attention. She’s extremely affectionate once she bonds with you, but like most cats, she comes on her own time and needs her space respected at first. She can be anxious around other animals, vets, and new people, especially if they move too fast or invade her space, but she is genuinely very sweet and loving once she feels safe. She just needs a patient and calm environment to open up. She was my emotional support animal in college, and even my roommates, who she didn’t like at first, eventually fell in love with her. It was definitely an enemies to lovers situation. She loves watching projectors, sleeping by your feet, and sitting with you while you get ready in the morning. Due to ongoing allergies and some health issues, I’m no longer able to care for her the way she deserves, so I’m looking for a safe, loving home where she can feel comfortable and cared for.
