Story
Lil Bit is a very sweet girl. She is about 6 years old, but very shy. She was primarily my husband's cat and when he recently passed she is missing him a great deal. She is loving but will take someone with patience to gain her trust. She loves to sit in the sun and watch the birds outside and will spend the day on my outside deck sunning and watching her surroundings. She primarily likes dry food, but with an occasional wet food treat. Unfortunately, she does not get along with my other cat, but he is the aggressor. Unfortunately, I cannot keep both of them together.

Story
He is about 11 months old, extremely friendly. Right now he has been having territorial spraying issues. About once every two weeks he will find a corner of the house to spray. This is because he isn’t neutered and we cant afford to neuter him. We also have a female in the house so we need to get rid of him unfortunately. I wish we could keep him because he is so friendly and loves neck scratches.

Story
Zeus is a very sweet boy. He’s very shy and takes a while to warm up to new people but when he does, he’s very affectionate and cuddly! I absolutely love Zeus and if it weren’t for my life circumstances I’d cherish him and keep him with me forever. Unfortunately, I no longer live in my own apartment and he’s not welcome at the residence im staying at. As a male cat he may be territorial at first but he becomes very playful with other cats when he gets comfortable. Zeus is up to date on his shots and he’s neutered. He comes with the pet carrier backpack seen in his photos and a small cage. All free, im not interested in taking money for him. My priority is that he gets into a safe loving home. He adapts to new litters and he’s not picky when it comes to food. Zeus isn’t too fond of young children as they can be loud and tend to chase him for affection. He startles easily but im confident in a loving home and with a gentle approach he can absolutely warm up to children as well.

Story
Baby came to us with 3 other cats. They all lived together in a home for most of their lives. They are all around 10 -11 years old and in good health. She is very affectionate and loves to sit on her tower so she can “supervise” everyone. She loves to be pet. She’s very vocal when it’s dinner time - she loves her meals! She is shy at first, but once she comes out of her shell she is a sweetheart. She is litter box trained. Baby is currently being fostered in NJ. To apply to adopt: https://form.jotform.com/210266204533142 100% of all money received from adoption fees and donations goes directly back to support saving other dogs and cats in need.  FFLAR is a 501c(3) non-profit.   Please consider donating.  We appreciate your support!
