Yugo was given to me by a close friend at 1 month old. I have had him for 7 months. He is a very sweet, silly, and loving cat. I just want him to go to a loving home. He does ask for a lot of attention, so please give him that. I would have never wanted to give him away if I weren’t moving somewhere so restrictive.

Captain Crunch has a history of skin issues. Due to this, he is fed Hill's Prescription Diet z/d Skin/Food Sensitivities Dry Cat Food once a day (2/3 of a cup). He hasn't lived around dogs or children so I'm not sure if he would get along with them. Captain does fine with other cats and playful.

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. Adoption Process INCLUDED IN ADOPTION: All out cat(s) and kitten(s) are vaccinated (Distemper, Rabies shots), Spayed/Neutered, tested for FIV/FeLV, microchiped, dewormed and deflead prior to Adoption. OUR ADOPTION FEES: $95.00 per kitten/young cat (under 1 year old) x $160.00 for a pair of kittens $85.00 per adult cat (over 1 year old) x $150.00 for a pair Thanks for your interest in adopting your future friend!

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 and though she had been very shy, she is beginning to warm up to our volunteers!  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##

Story
🐈‍⬛ Hedwig is a trans icon just like their namesake from Hedwig and the Angry Inch. They’re a 14 month old intersex kitty born with both female and male reproductive parts, a rarity that only adds to their little cosmic vibe. Hedwig doesn’t just warm up to people… they activate! The moment you walk into the room, they start purring like you’ve stepped into their personal spell circle. They adore being held, melt into pets, and will follow the sound of a treat bag like it’s a mystical calling. Feather wands are their chosen form of enchantment, and they’ll chase them with the enthusiasm of a witch in training. Wrapped in a sleek black coat but carrying pure orange-cat chaos energy inside, Hedwig is a biscuit-making, opinion-sharing, heart-stealing familiar. They get along beautifully with both cats and dogs after a slow introduction, and they bring this gentle, otherworldly sweetness that makes every space feel a little brighter just by being in it. Hedwig is being fostered in 19143!

Scott is five years young and crazy soft and trust me, he absolutely knows it. His signature move is hopping up onto your shoulders and pretending he’s a luxurious living scarf. He’s obsessed with humans, gets along well with other cats after slow intros, and he’s totally cool with dogs too. He’s just an all-around sweetheart and a professional purr machine. He’s all ready for his forever home: neutered, combo tested negative, and fully up to date on his vaccines. Scott is located in a Philly foster home in 19143
