Story
I rescued Arya from the Ocean County Animal Shelter back in 2019. When I rescued her she was very shy because when her and her brother were picked up by the shelter, she had an eye infection. The shelter kept her in quarantine until the infection healed, but in that time her brother was adopted. She is still skittish, but once she warms up to you, she absolutely loves to have her belly rubbed and she is the sweetest cat. She is a bonded pair with Stark. She does not like to be picked up and held, but will lay next to you for pets and belly rubs. She's not aggressive at all and will not hiss unless provoked by an unfamiliar cat (particularly female cats). I highly recommend Arya and Stark going to a loving home with no other pets in it for them to be most comfortable. They are both great with children, as well as adults. Both Arya and Stark are exclusively indoor cats.

Story
I rescued Stark from the Ocean County Animal Shelter back in 2019. When I rescued him, he was very playful, outgoing and relaxed and he still is. He became a bonded pair with Arya. He loves to be pet and brushed, Temptations treats, cat nip, and playing with toys (particularly laser pointers and fuzzy snakes on a stick). He's not aggressive at all and wouldn't harm a fly. He doesn't mind being picked up and pet, but only for a couple minutes at a time. I highly recommend Arya and Stark going to a home with no other pets in it for them to be most comfortable. They are both great with children, as well as adults. Both Arya and Stark are exclusively indoor cats.

Story
I adopted Luna from Calling All Cats Rescue in 2020. Luna is an amazing cat. She was born without retinas, so she has been completely blind for her entire life, but once she acclimates to her surroundings, you wouldn't even know it. Her eyes are really cute and her pupils are always dilated which makes her look excited. She also has a long tail that she uses for balance almost as a walking stick. She loves attention, being pet, playing with toys that rattle and being held/laying in your lap. She is vocal and has a cute meow when she's hungry or wants a pet. Because she is blind, she will need a loving home that is comfortable with not moving around furniture frequently. She would also be better served as the only pet in the household, as she gets territorial around my other 2 cats and tries to hog all of the attention. She prefers pets from the top of the head to the middle of her back and does not like pets around her tail or her belly out of fear.

Story
Smokey is now about 8 or 9 months old. I rescued him from an abandoned litter on my back porch and his right eye was badly damaged. I nursed him and the eye swelling went down gradually and took him to the vet for a cleaning and evaluation. When he was neutered the vet determined his right eye needed to be removed because of excessive discharge, but he is very well, and is a very normal, playful and sweet kitten, who likes to be cuddled, kissed and have his ears tweaked. He is overly playful sometimes and it occasionally annoys my senior cat. Unfortunately my landlord only allows me one cat., so I am looking for a caring and affectionate family or owner to love and take care of him. I Prefer an experienced cat owner with one or more cats for Smokey to befriend. I can be flexible with the adoption fee, so let's have a discussion.

Story
We are seeking a new loving home for our cherished cat, Venus. Venus has been a beloved member of our family since June 2018. He is a well-behaved, very gentle, and healthy cat who brings joy and companionship. Unfortunately, due to a family member developing severe allergies, we are unable to continue caring for him. We are heartbroken to make this decision but are hopeful to find Venus a new home where he will be loved and cared for just as much as he has been with us. If you are interested in providing Venus with a new forever home, please reach out for more details. We are committed to ensuring that he finds a safe and loving environment.

Story
Frankie is a 8-9 year old cat who was rescued about 3 years ago from a shelter in Ohio as a solo cat. We have since moved to NJ to a home with additional cats and he has struggled with aggression and territorial issues since the move. The house also has a dog who he largely just stays away from. Frankie is a very loving and snuggly cat who wants to be loved by all people he meets. He will play for as long as you’d like, and his favorite toys are basic strings. He will inevitably zoom every night around 9:30 and then snuggle into bed right by your side. He is truly a kitten at heart who just needs a caring home where he gets to be the only cat.
