HOUSE CATS for adoption
The following cats are in need of permanent indoor homes (at least to start with). They are the kind of cat who particularly loves the comforts of home ... a cushion on a rocking chair in the sun ... time cuddled near their person day or night. Once bonded with you and your household, they might enjoy safe time outdoors but please make sure they will stay nearby and will stay away from roads. Ideally, you live off the beaten path and an indoor/outdoor cat will be safe. If not, if you are in the city for example, please take precautions for dangers that face cats outdoors ... pesticides, cars, abusive kids or people. If you are at all concerned for their safety, keep them indoors, they are happy and accustomed to this kind of lifestyle. The cats can be adopted in the pair groupings listed below or individually.
Poppy & Smudge - Poppy is a 2 year old very pretty cat with a medium-length coat of many colours (grey, white, ginger). She was rescued from the landfill as a very sick little kitten. She healed and grew to be a healthy, lovely cat. Smudge is 2-3 years old, black & white male with a black smudge on his nose. He has six toes on each of his front paws ... he is somewhat timid at first because he was abused as a young kitten/cat but if you are gentle and kind, Smudge will fall in love with y ou in very short order. Smudge & Poppy enjoy each others company very much. We often find them curled up together in the same basket. These cats would be well-suited to a quieter home.
Storm & Halo - Storm is 5-6 years old, a black fluffy male cat. He is somewhat shy but once he feels safe with you, he'll be your best friend. He's handsome and sweet and would look wonderful on your rocking chair. Halo is 5 years old. I called him Halo because I found him at midnight ... on the road, after being hit by a car. He was in the path of my car so I stopped to see if he was alive. He looked dead, but then he lifted his head. I raced him to the vet and because of his head injury, sh e gave him a 50-50 chance. Halo required rehabilitation, about six months worth. His brain wasn't functioning properly .... he couldn't jump up onto a couch or do anything that a healthy cat would do. In time, he began to function like any cat and that's why I called him Halo because he must have had one on in order to survive that accident. Halo is a white and grey and brown tabby cat. He is sweetest itself, gentle and tender beyond measure. He will bring happiness to anyone he meets. Storm & Halo would be best suited to a quieter home.
Holstein & Josie - Holstein is 5 years old - black and white like a holstein cow and adorable. He suffered a broken jaw so sometimes his little tongue sticks out but he is a fun and loving cat. He enjoys the company of other animals, dogs, cats ... you name it. His friend is Josie, she's a petite black cat who loves to play. She's approximately 2 years old. Both of these cats were dumped in the country by uncaring individuals, in the middle of winter, on the coldest of days. They deserve a wa rm environment where they are loved. Holstein and Josie would do well in a quiet home or an active home. They enjoy being involved with their people.
Samantha & Tamsin - Samantha & Tamsin are siblings. They are 2 years old. Samantha is pure black and Tamsin (Samantha's brother) is a brown & ginger coloured tabby. They are active, playful friends and would very much enjoy an active household. They very much enjoy the company of other dogs and cats and would fit into anyone's home. They were rescued as sick kittens from the landfill. Their other sibling died as a baby but these two thrived in time and grew up to be healthy, strong cats.
BARN CATS for adoption
The following groups of cats will thrive in a safe and secure barn environment. They are accustomed to a comfortable life outdoors ... their current area consists of straw, shavings, litter boxes, beds, blankets and a multitude of toys and scratching posts. They enjoy the company of other cats and we have placed them up for adoption in groups that love each other for that very reason. We are looking to place these cat families with people who will love them, cuddle them, feed them and tend to them. All o f these cats came into our care at one time. We drove to NY State to pick up a special needs cat named "Impy". He has a brain disorder and as such, wobbles when he walks. He needed a safe place to live out his life ... he is at the sanctuary now and will live out his life with Donna, one of our caretakers. When Donna and I arrived in the middle of the night to pick up Impy, we walked into the most delapidated situation we'd ever seen. Stench, disgusting mess, horrendous. In the middle of all of this disgust were three adult cats (one of them was Impy) and 11 kittens from two different litters, a couple of weeks apart from each other. Flea infested and dirty, we knew we could not leave them in this state, so off we all go ... Impy and his siblings, and 11 kittens ... loose in the truck with our pug. Strangely, the cats did not freak out the way many cats do in a vehicle. They simply laid in the blankets we provided for them in the back of the SUV and were quiet, happy and content all the way home. They are now healthy, happy, loving cats ... no fleas or health issues, spayed and neutered. They would be very content to live as indoor/outdoor cats also ... the main concern we have is that they have people who provide love and caring the way these cats, who had such a tough start in life, deserve.
Albert & Baby Luca - Albert is a white & grey tabby, very snuggly. He is approximately 1- 2 years old. Baby Luca is mainly white with grey tabby markings. She is very playful and 4-5 months old.
Soraya & Solo Mio - Soraya is a white & grey tabby. Tender & sweet, she is 3 years old. Solo Mio is Soraya's daughter. She is mostly white with a grey tabby patch on the top of her head. She is 10 months old.
Bella & Sparkie Doodle - Bella is white with grey tabby markings, cute and cuddly. She is 3 years old. Sparkie Doodle is black & white, extremely cuddly and attentive. He is 1-2 years old. Tiny.
SPECIAL NEEDS Barn/House Cats for adoption
Hawk & Mo are brothers, mostly white with a grey tabby patch on the top of their heads, 1-2 years old. At first they were very mistrustful of humans. They didn't like to be touched or held, would keep their distance. Eventually they became curious and would find themselves moving in closer and closer on us as we went about visiting the other cats. At this point, we believe Hawk & Mo would thrive in their own indoor home. We feel they will bond with their person, in a quiet environment and at some point could go outdoors also. They are a very handsome pair and earning their trust and love will be worth the time and patience.
Blueberry currently lives with Hawk & Mo, he is 1-2 years old. He is white with grey tabby markings and considered timid and will need some extra attention so that he can learn to trust. He will also do best in a quiet home initially.
Scarecrow is a brown tabby with orange as part of her markings, she is 1-2 years old. She is the most fearful of all the cats in residence. She has remained quite feral but over time, does come out of hiding to watch the goings on or to be fed. We believe with the right person, who has lots of patience, that Scarecrow could come around in time. Again, a quiet one or two person home would be best.
Note:
Blueberry & Scarecrow would do well in a foster home with someone interested in rehabilitation. Someone who has the time, patience and love needed until they are ready for adoption.
