Story
Mint was trapped outside with his siblings and made some socialization progress in foster care. Mint is taking his own pace in making friends with us but with the help of his kitty friends he has started to become more comfortable and curious! With continued socialization, we know Mint could blossom into a spoiled pet. We best believe Mint would do best in a home with no children and would have to have a feline companion(s) to show him the ropes. Mint is a young adult, neutered, UTD on vaccinations, FIV/FELV NEGATIVE and microchipped. If you are interested in Mint, please fill out a feline adoption application at https://service.sheltermanager.com/asmservice?account=meridenhumanesociety&method=online_form_html&formid=28

Rory & Leo entered our rescue as stray cats. They are a bonded pair that we think might be mother and son. Leo is younger but they are both young kitties. Rory loves to be pet once she knows you but is cautious at first. Leo loves to play but is currently nervous around people but getting better everyday. They are looking for a home and family to call forever. If you are interested in adopting this beautiful bonded pair of kitties into your family, please read about our process then complete and submit our Cat Adoption Application online at: https://www.fabsrescue.com/applications
