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
Hi all! We are looking for a true FOREVER HOME for Minky aka Sheba! She can no longer stay at the vet office (no fault of her own) and although she loves loves loves her foster mom Lori, she does NOT love her cats and has to stay in a spare room. Minky actually sleeps pretty much all day so she doesn't really mind, but it's not an ideal set up for her long-term as she would like more attention. She is a senior kitty who we affectionately call the German Shepherd of cats, she bonds very closely with a few people and tolerates everyone else so she needs a special person or couple to take the time to bond with her. If she does not trust you and you invade her space, prepare for some grumbling or a smack (she has little to no teeth, so no biting). When she does trust you, you can totally carry her around and snuggle with her etc (she's afraid of thunderstorms so she'd love a cuddle buddy for these summer storms coming up!). Not trying to scare off adopters, just trying to be honest! She is honestly a sweet cat who has just had a rough start in life! She was living on the streets of Newark for years so naturally she is a little rough around the edges visually and personality-wise but crack that outer shell and she's your new little ride or die bestie. She has super soft fur and her coloring is called black smoke tabby - a coat type you often only see in purebred cats.

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.
