Story
Willow is one of the sweetest cats you could ever meet. She loves attention loves scratches not too fond of being picked up, though he is not too bad with taking baths, I got her from an old coworker about two years ago. She has never been fixed. She has been chewing on herself and has sore spots on her back legs and really all over she seems to be a little underweight to me. Unfortunately, she has a very bad habit of liking to get on top of tables and countertops. She’s never been an outside cat and our biggest problem with her is if the litter box is not clean enough for her, she will use the bathroom whenever and wherever she pleases! We love her dearly, but no, she needs more help than what we can give her. She deserves a better life.

Story
Clover is a sweet girl who was attacked by my cat and is now not adjusting well due to being attacked by one of my other two cats. She was fine with the one who didn’t attack her. But after being attacked she’s been extremely stressed and she deserves better. We adopted her recently and I feel terrible that it’s not working out. Id waive adoption fee for promise of a good home and updates. She would do well in a quiet home with a cat that is guaranteed to do well with cats.

Story
Looking for a Loving Home for a Friendly Cat. Location: Seekonk, MA A few months ago, my neighbors moved and left behind their young female cat. With no response from them, I took her in to keep her safe during the winter. She’s a healthy, spayed, and very friendly cat who deserves a loving and permanent home. Unfortunately, I can't keep her due to having a dog who does not tolerate cats, which makes it challenging keeping areas of the house closed off especially with kids. I didn't want to bring her to a shelter because I feel bad and want to make sure she gets a good home. About the Cat: - Young female - Spayed - Healthy - Friendly and social What We're Looking For: - A loving, responsible individual or family who can provide a safe and happy home - Preferably no other aggressive pets to ensure her safety and comfort If you're interested in adopting this sweet cat or know someone who might be, please contact me. I hope to find her a great home soon!
