Story
Good Afternoon beautiful cat people, I need some help!   My family and I will be relocating outside of the country for a year or so. Though it is tough to admit, traveling abroad with my two kids and two kittens is just a bit too much for my wife and I.   We’ve really bonded with these boys since meeting them outside my parents home 2 months ago. Our plan was to keep Paul Lee and Boots in the family as we travel, unfortunately that plan doesn’t seem feasible at the moment. I am here to see if any of you kind people would be interested in adopting our boys. They are 8 months old and have all of their shots and dewormed. Both are very affectionate and cuddly. They are not neutered, we figure it would be best to do so after they are safe and settled in their new home. Anyone interested in meeting Paul Lee and Boots?

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
Tundra is cuddler for sure. Eating and being held are close favorites as long as he gets to sniff your face! He also get excited for playtime, though slightly less than his sister. Named for his long orange fur, tundra is a bonded pair with his littermate, girl (the only girl of her litter) they are 5 months old this November 4th (birthday June 4 2022), generally socialized and potty trained. Both have had spay/neuter and rabies shot 11/11/2022. We were unable to do the other vaccinations. Girl, loves to play and enjoys brief cuddles. They both really like food over most things especially if it's been wet a little bit with water ( I can probably donate a 12lbs bag or so of their food-American journey chicken grain free). I am hoping to have them rehomed as a bonded pair.

Story
Meet Toast! We recently took in a stray male cat from our yard and were able to have him seen at a clinic to be neutered, chipped, receive vaccinations and be tested for viruses. Unfortunately, while he is in good health in all other respects, he did test positive for FeLV. We already have a cat in the home who does not have the virus and was recently tested to confirm as much. Because the risk of exposure is so high we feel that the best choice is to find a home for Toast where he can live comfortably on his own. We intended to provide a good home for "Toast" and still hope to do so although it is not our own. Please contact us if you are able to help.

Story
I adopted Nico as a kitten from a rescue, Kitten BNB (Instagram). He is my little baby but I can no longer care for him due to my own health reasons. He is adorable, loving, high energy, playful but also loves to cuddle. Grew up living with both dogs and cats. Would probably do fine living with children- have had visits from kids and he does well. He will "sit" for treats and comes when you call his name. Coming up on needing yearly vet visit, I will pay for this at vet of your choice. Hoping to keep him in the area (zip 19002). For more pictures, please ask or visit nico_and_cormbread (Instagram). This is an extremely difficult decision to make but I am hoping to rehome him with a person or family who can love him as much as I have for the past 6 years.

Story
These two are brother and sister(we rescued them 3 years ago from Kitty Kat Kottage), they are amazing cats. However a year ago we had our son and have been unable to give them the attention they desire. They started to act out about 4 months ago by peeing on basement furniture, scratching at our legs(harmlessly), and getting the zoomies whenever we try to nap our baby. They have no health issues and are pretty light maintenance, we usually feed them 2-3 times a day with dry food and canned food. We let them out in our back yard which is enclosed and they do not try to run away.
