Story
URGENT CAT REHOMING Hi, I recently was kicked out of my home and my cat, Jemi, was temporarily staying at another place but she is no longer able to stay there. I would do anything in the world to be able to keep her but I have tried everything. No-kill shelters are full due to it being kitten season. All I want is for her to go to a loving home where she'll get lots of love and cuddles. No adoption fee and I'll supply her litter box, automatic feeder, water fountain, and some food/ litter to get you started. She is a domestic black shorthair with no tail. Her vaccines are completely up to date as of 4/23/25. She is spayed. She is about to be 3 on May 6th. Jemi is the sweetest calmest cat you'll ever meet. She loves to lay on your chest and purr. She's not much of a player but she does like laser toys. She does well with other cats/dogs. Please text me at (xxx) xxx-xxxx if interested. In the Franklin County area.

Story
Our Uncle acquired Squeakers in Florida and brought her with him to Pennsylvania a couple years ago. Squeakers can be scared and will hide on top of cabinets but we know from past experience she has been sweet and playful. We believe she is unsettled from her owner passing away and the apartment being cleared out. She will be a sweet pet for her new owners.

Story
HARDY (AKA MAHJONG) IS IN HIS FOSTER HOME IN MEMPHIS TN AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED TO PA ONCE HE IS ADOPTED! This is Hardy. He gets along great with everyone and other cats. He would do great  with a fun outgoing buddy to play with. Has been around dogs, but is shy of them. He is slightly shy at first, but once he gets to know you, he loves to be petted and snuggled with.  He is gentle but would be skittish around children or high/loud activity.  He loves to zoom to the highest cat tree tops and to watch the fish in the fish-tank. He has a very loud purr machine.  He would also be great if adopted with his sister, Laurel, but they are not bonded so they could go separately. He is neutered, has had all age appropriate vaccines, microchip, and a confirmed NEGATIVE FIV/FeLV test.   The adoption fee of $295 also includes the transport up north.  We use a licensed and registered USDA transport company that will bring him up north once he is adopted. If you are interested in adopting, please go to our website and complete an online application using this link: http://www.newbeginningsanimalrescue.net.   Once your application is received and processed you will be contacted by an NBAR Volunteer.
