Story
Andie is a beautiful doe-eyed girl who has raised four gorgeous kittens and is now ready for her forever home. She is 18-months-old and weighs 7.4 lb. Andie is at a foster home, not at our shelter. Her foster says "Andie is shy and allure at first but warms up with love and scratches. Andie enjoys a good round of play with a retractable wand before snuggling into hidey holes or stretching out in the sun. She prefers a quiet environment to enjoy her people. Andie is comfortable with other cats with calm dispositions." Andie is vaccinated, microchipped, spayed and healthy. Her adoption fee is $175. If you would like to meet/adopt Andie, please complete our online application at https://daws.org/daws-forms. Email daws@daws.org with questions or for more assistance.

Story
I am heartbroken to say that I need to rehome my 13-year-old cat. Due to my ongoing stage four cancer treatment, I have to relocate to a friend in the south for assistance with my treatments and day-to-day living. Chloe is an absolute Lovebug, gentle, affectionate, and happiest when she is curled up beside you or sleeping on your bed. She thrives on human contact and loves to lounge around the house. She would be the perfect companion for someone who wants a calm, cuddly friend. She is in her golden years, so a quiet home where she can relax and be loved would be ideal. Please note she does get carsick, so transportation should be kept to a minimum if possible. If you are looking for a sweet soul to share your space and your heart, please reach out. She deserves a wonderful new home where she can be adored. I never thought that I would have to give up the cat that I love so much but my future is uncertain and I want to make sure hers is not. She is located in Bridgeport CT

Story
Linus is a one-year-old short-haired handsome boy. Linus's life started out rough, being feral for the first two months of his life. Linus is at a foster home, not at our shelter. His foster says "Linus has adjusted well with human contact and other cats. He is extremely shy at times, but does like attention and accept pets on his terms. He loves food, treats and is very playful with the rest of the cat clan. Linus will do well as a solo pet or with other cats, but will need time to adjust to his new surroundings in any situation. Linus has not been introduced to dogs or children and not sure how he would react to either." Linus is vaccinated, microchipped, neutered and healthy. His adoption fee is $175. If you would like to meet/adopt Linus, please complete our online application at https://daws.org/daws-forms.

Story
This adorable kitten is Havarti. She is a 3-month-old shorthaired brown striped tabby kitten. Havarti is in a foster home, not at our shelter. Her foster says "Havarti is a very sweet and affectionate kitten with a calm and curious nature. Always drawn to a sunny window or a quiet corner to observe the world, this kitten enjoys peaceful moments just as much as a good round of play with favorite toys. She loves to be pet and held, and is the loudest purrer! She is very social and comes running the moment you walk in the door, but will often find a quiet spot to snuggle up. She loves to chase her tail and play with her toys, and is wonderful around kids." Havarti is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped and healthy. Her adoption fee is $225. If you would like to meet/adopt Havarti, please complete our online application at https://daws.org/daws-forms. Email daws@daws.org with questions or for more assistance.
