Story
This is Freya. She was found in an abandoned home and we took her in. Our vet said she is about 7 to 9 years old. She is very shy at first, but once you work with her she is one of the most loving cats I have ever met. I have 2 other cats aswell as a bird and she doesn't get along with them, so we are looking for a better suited home for her. She would do best in a quiet home, probably one without other pets. She is very vocal and loves to talk. She has never shown any aggression towards people.

Story
Anthony is a very kind, warm, and energetic one-year-old cat. He is around 15 pounds and is initially timid and takes a few seconds to recognize who you are. Anthony’s mother came to a family member when she about to give birth, resulting in Anthon and his sister (see profile for his sister, Silvia). Born on March 24, 2023, and brought to his foster home on June 5, 2023. Anthony was brought to the vet on July 10, 2023, for his initial checkup where he tested positive for FIV but otherwise is happy, healthy, and well-mannered kitten/cat. He was neutered and microchipped on November 13, 2023, and had his one-year checkup in late February 2024, with no issues. Anthony is a very loving and playful cat, that loves to climb and come to you for pets. He loves toys on strings and a laser pointer but really any toy is a good time.

Story
Silvia is a very cute and kind, one-year-old cat. She is 8 to 9 lbs so a tiny girl, and is rather timid to tall people but warms up quickly. Silvia’s mother came to a family member when she about to give birth, resulting in Silvia and her brother (see profile for her brother, Anthony). Born on March 24, 2023, and brought to her foster home on June 5, 2023. Silvia was brought to the vet on July 10, 2023, for her initial checkup where she tested positive for FIV but was otherwise a happy, healthy, and well-mannered kitten. She was spayed and microchipped on November 13, 2023, and had her one-year checkup in late February 2024. Silvia is a very sweet, independent, and loving cat. She likes to do her own things a lot of the time, but every day has a need to climb into your lap for pets and a power nap. . Her favorite toy is a red laser pointer, or a mouse toy appearing to hide from her letting her chase and pounce on it

Story
Lily was adopted from a shelter. She was six weeks old and we had adopted her with her sister from the same litter. She is very curious, playful and affectionate. Everybody that comes into the house she greets and purrs. She currently shares a home with two dogs. Unfortunately, she did not adjust well when we adopted a pitbull mix. The first dog we had is smaller and they got along because the smaller dog did not chase her and was not a threat. She has grown apart from her sister and they do not interact with each other. She has never been around other cats. She loves to sleep with her humans. She deserves to be in a loving home that I cannot provide in the future.

These pups are in Princeton, New Jersey too!

Story
We adopted this beautiful black cat and he is the sweetest thing ever almost dog like. Loves to cuddle and loves to be petted. Very good with kids and is extremely gentle. The only reason we have to rehome is because my daughter is extremely allergic to him. We have lots of supplies with him for whoever would like to adopt him. Would be great for a family because he is so gentle. Doesn't jump on many things just wants to snuggle.
