Story
Oscar needs a good home. He lives with me along with his sister (Gracie, which I would like him to be adopted with), his Mom and Dad, and his Auntie Li’lbitz (my other four cats). I would like him to go to a good home because I feel like my attention is spread too thin amongst the five of them and I work 5-6 days a week. I live in a small apartment and it’s also a bit too cramped with five cats. I love him dearly. I’ve raised him very well, feeding him the best raw chicken and rabbit and giving him all the love I can muster. He’s the sweetest boy. Not a mean bone in his body. He is a bit on the shy side, but if you take your time with him he will love and trust you. He lets me hold him like a baby and rub his nose. He also likes when I dance with him when I have the music playing. He’s a big, long boy with a long tail. He loves to eat too! He likes to go outside sometimes (supervised) and climb the trees. He never leaves the yard and always comes in the house when I tell him to.

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
Hi, I'm Sylvie! I was dumped outside, fending for myself, covered in 90+ ticks, eating bird food to survive. I sat outside a house I found, crying to come inside- luckily, it was Foster Mommy's house! My name is meaningful to my journey, it's French for "forest." I'm doing fantastic as an inside kitty! I LOVE snuggling in my kitty bed, making biscuits on my blankie, belly rubs and pets from my human friend, bird watching, chasing toys you throw me, and especially spending time grooming and wrestling my foster siblings. My ideal family will understand that I'm shy with new humans because of my past experience, but with patience and treats, I'll eventually show you my belly! I really want a home with another cat- one of my foster siblings is an option. I'm a really good girl that's litter trained, I use scratching posts, chirp and talk to you, nuzzle your legs, and want to be near you. One of my favorite activities: Foster Mommy throws my bedtime snacks across the room, and I sprint and pounce and enjoy my crunchies and time with my human friend; I'll nuzzle to ask for more. Wait until you feel how unbelievably silky, soft my fur is! Do you have room for me on your fuzzy blanket? If you'd like to see more of me, find me on Instagram @SmittenKittenLady
