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
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!

Story
We are looking for a safe, loving home for our gray tabby cat, who we rescued as a kitten. He will be 5 years old this September (his exact birthday is unknown), and he’s been part of our family since he was very small. He was given his initial vaccine shots as a kitten but nothing after that. He was also neutered as a kitten. He is a calm, affectionate cat who is house trained and uses his litter box reliably. He loves being pet, enjoys playing with people, and is easy to be around. He also likes to go outside. The truth is, we have not been able to give him the attention and care he deserves lately, and we feel it’s only right to find someone who can give him more time, more love, and a space where he can thrive. This decision comes from love and a desire to do what is best for him. If you or someone you know can offer a gentle, committed home for him, please reach out. We would love to see him placed with someone who will cherish him.
