Story
Here’s Herbie, my beautiful, smart 3 year old cat. I adopted him two and a half years ago from a shelter in New Fairfield. He loves to snuggle. He and I have spent lots of time together with him on my chest or on my legs, purring away. He waits for me at the door when I go out. Herbie loves food and I have been able to teach him a couple of tricks using the clicker method and rewarding him with treats. He needs lots of attention. He likes to play; for example, to chase down plastic spring-y toys. But doesn’t like anyone to touch his feet and he hates being in the car. Although most of the time he is a loving, lovable pet, Herbie bites, which is why I’m sadly giving him up.

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
Bear is a sweet little guy. He is 11 years old and very healthy. He is an indoor cat. He was adopted with his brother as kittens whom unfortunately passed on last year. I feel badly because my son is older and moved, his brother is passed, and I work and go to night classes. I want him to receive the attention and love he deserves instead of being so alone. He is very gentle, house trained, LOVES attention and has no known health issues. He would be perfect for a parent living alone who needs a friend. He has a long life to live and deserves the very best.
