Story
Shadow is 17 and acts half his age. We inherited him when my mother passed last fall. He is very loving and needs a lot of attention. The best situation would be someone who is home most of the time. He has a thyroid condition and takes a pill a day (willingly, stuffed inside a treat!) He has never been around other animals and I don't know how he would be around small children. He mostly ignored the great grandchildren when they visited my mother. He is very giving and affectionate one-on-one. Our spring/summer/fall travel back and forth to NH is the reason to find him another home. We don't think bringing him back and forth would be a good idea.

Story
Hi, I’m Ellie. I’m a 3-year-old female cat currently in a foster home in greater Boston area. I love quiet corners where I can watch the world softly. I’m quite the thinker, you know? My days are filled with gentle play and little adventures around my cozy nook. I might be a bit shy at first, but give me a little time, and I’ll show you my goofy side. I’m looking for someone who appreciates a sweet, mellow companion. If you’re looking for a gentle soul to add warmth to your home, I’m your girl. Let’s make our own quiet, happy world together. ats can live up to 20 years, so give careful thought to the changes that are likely to occur in your life during that time. If you can and will commit to providing a safe, loving home for life, then please submit a Pre-Adoption Form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSejVc_RDDfTTGUh2vHmc7At2SUjwTkJlYHgytgSaH6-qESYrQ/viewform

Story
Looking to rehome our sweet boy Nimbus, born 12/28/2023. He is incredibly sweet and gentle, enjoys people, and is a healthy little guy. He has a chronic condition called feline hyperesthesia syndrome, and I am unable to dedicate the time needed off from work, or money to offer him the best care possible. He is completely healthy and normal otherwise. Looking for a person or household that can give him more attention than i can, and more space. He has never lived with a dog or children.
