Story
I brought Sunny home as a kitten almost 5 years ago, he was born to another cat in the family. Sunny is a sweet, content, and curious cat who enjoys napping under warm blankets. He loves stomach rubs and random games of fetch (even though he never brings the ball back). Since Sunny has a little anxiety, we are hoping for a quiet home for him where he can feel safe and relaxed. Born: September 18, 2019

Story
Due to the asthma in the house, the cats unfortunately have to be rehomed but their brothers and they need to stay together so that’s what I hope is they’re both lovely, loving, loving, loving cats. They’re only a couple years old.

Story
Ms Tuna was formerly Bideawee's leading lady. She is a very cute silver tabby that has a unique personality to match her distinctive name. She was rescued off the streets of New Jersey in November of 2012 and was living at Bideawee. She is hoping to find her forever home at the Foundation. She enjoys being around people but prefers affection on her own terms. Once she is comfortable around you and in a relaxing environment, Ms. Tuna loves being scratched behind the ears. She is chatty and knows how to get what she wants. She would do best with an experienced cat owner who understands her independent nature. She would also do best in a quiet household. She would prefer to be the only cat, but might ok with another serene feline.

Story
This handsome kitty is Sycamore. He is an 8-month-old shorthaired tuxedo looking for his forever home. Sycamore is still coming out of his shell, but with a little bit of patience and love, he will be the prefect addition to any household. Sycamore loves pets and will lean in and purr once he trusts you. He is great with other cats and loves to play and use the scratching pad, but his all-time favorite thing is feeding time! Sycamore is neutered, microchipped, vaccinated and healthy. Do you think you are the right person/family for Sycamore?

Story
*** For Information about Adopting or Meeting our Cats, Click Here to Submit an Application. Once Approved you can make an Appointment *** Bean Bag is the best! Beanie showed up in a colony and was instantly noted as a friendly. Some time during his outside adventures Beanie became FIV+ but you would never know, he is in great shape and lives nicely with other cats. Beanie is neutered, up to date on vaccinations and ready for his forever home. This kitty has tested positive for FIV, similar to HIV in people. It can not be transmitted through casual contact, sharing food, water, or a litter box. It can not be transmitted to people or other pet species. It is typically only transmitted to other cats via a deep bite wound. FIV positive cats can live long and healthy lives! They do tend to have more dental issues and absolutely must be kept safely indoors at all times.
