Story
Blackie is a very social, affectionate young boyl, who loves to jump on your lap and purr. Contact: catchancerescue@gmail.com/ 610-324-4726 Hi my name is Blackie and I resemble a “miniature black panther”, I am intelligent, very loving black beauty with gorgeous eyes and a shiny, sleek black coat, who just wants to love, love, love you! I love to be hold, pet, lay on your lap and get lots of attention. If you think you can get any work done on your PC – well, I will lay next to you on your desk to keep you company but make sure to pay attention to me too and give me a head rub meanwhile. I am a cuddle and very affectionate with people. I am not very outgoing and interactive. My favorite thing in the world is to sleep in bed with humans right under arm and purr. I'm a loyal, loving companion and a very affectionate kitty and I love to roll over on my back to show my appreciation and love. I am very outgoing and interactive. As soon as you sit down I will jump on your lap purring. I am very smart kitty and if you call me I come right to you and follow you everywhere in the house. Did you know? Black cats have more baggage than your average feline. Seen as an enigma, a superstition, a symbol of luck – good or bad, depending on the tradition or belief, they are often misunderstood, or just plain looked over. Black cats have the lowest adoption rate. This is unfortunate, and not just for the cats- black cats make some of the best companions and people are really missing out! Although each and every cat has a unique personality, in general, I have noticed a few traits that really stand out in black cats. Here, in my humble experience is why: Beautiful: From brownish to bluish to every shade of black in between, black cats are beautiful in the way that one can only imagine onyx would be, if it were covered in fur. Loyal: No matter how many work trips or late nights, I am always greeted at the door. I am meowed to over the phone when away. Black cats are wonderful in being both friendly to all and dedicated to their person/people. Adaptable: While some cats struggle with change, black cats tend to quickly adapt to whatever circumstances they are dealt. Aware: Black cats seem to walk a line- they tend to be more calm and reserved than some other cats, yet they balance that by staying playful and active throughout their lives. They relish new toys, found objects, and are talented at entertaining themselves for hours (and napping for hours thereafter). The types of games they create and the ones they enjoy engaging in often involve others-people, cats, dogs, etc., and tend to be more complex, such as games of fetch and tag. Smart: In a final word, black cats are smart. They are savvy to things going on around them, and highly responsive and capable of handling change, throughout which, they remain calm, loving, energetic companions. Blackie is up-to-date on all shots: Distemper, Rabies. Tested negative for Felv/FIV. Spayed. Microchiped. Litter box trained. Contact 610-324-4726 or catchancerescue@gmail.com to learn more about this kitty.

Story
Born March 2, 2025, Opal is a spicy girl who’s a little on the shy side. But once she’s had time to settle in, her playful personality shines. She loves chasing the laser and climbing to high places to show off her skills. She’s a bit unsure around new people, but if you crouch down and give her space, she’ll come over for some gentle pets. She’s also a big fan of mealtime and is highly treat motivated. Opal must be adopted with one of her siblings--Aquamarine or Sapphire--, or go to a home with another young, playful cat. Adoption fee is $350 for a pair or $200 if she’s joining a home with another young cat. If you are interested in adopting her, please fill out the adoption link below. https://www.familiarhearts.org/adoptable-pets

Story
Meet Analise--your low maintenance queen! Analise was found on the streets back in June, and unfortunately, she came with an old injury to her back right femur. It’s left her with a permanent limp, but she’s not in any pain and still jumps just fine when she feels like it. Her veterinarian feels her leg is stable now, though it’s possible that if things were to flare up down the road, an amputation could be part of her journey. We want to be upfront about this, but also reassure you: cats adapt beautifully to three legs, and many live long, full, joyful lives that way. She’s all about the simple things: good food, gentle pets, and a warm spot to sunbathe. Analise starts purring the moment you touch her and is extremely food and treats motivated. She wants nothing to do with toys—especially string toys near her face. That’s her firm boundary. But she’ll happily trade play for snacks and affection. Analise would thrive in a calm home as the only animal, where she can reign as queen of her castle. She’s not looking for furry friends — just a loyal human or two to adore her and let her finally rest easy in a forever home. If you’re ready to let Analise rule your heart (and your treat stash), apply today! https://www.familiarhearts.org/adoptable-pets

Story
Meet Archie! He was rescued morning of October after being found alone and scared, covered in dirt and being picked on by feral cats. He had a tight, frayed collar with no ID and no chip. Now safe, Archie has unlocked his signature move to win your heart over-therapeutic hugs! He wraps his arms around your neck and purrs nonstop. Archie is about 6 months old, neutered, vaxxed, dewormed, double negative, and very playful. He’s learning cat social skills and getting the hang of toys. He and Hattie (another young foster cat) have become great companions. They play beautifully together and keep each other entertained. His foster mom would really love to see them go home as a pair! https://www.familiarhearts.org/adoptable-pets

Pixie is a sweet, gorgeous calico girl who would love a quiet cozy home where she can settle in and be loved.  She came to us when her former owner could no longer care for her.  We are all hopeful that her gentle personality, beauty, and sweetness will help someone open their heart and home to this special girl.    Pixie has also just been vet checked and is a healthy girl ready to go home with you!   ##2518584##
