My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Justin is a wonderful combo of affectionate and self-sufficient. He’s good at entertaining himself while you’re at work and will greet you at the door upon your return. He’s a sucker for a good back scratch or ear rub. He’s not an active cuddler and instead likes to be where you are, following you from room-to-room just to sit next to you. Calm and easy going, when he’s had his fill, he’ll just walk away. Justin enjoys sleeping with his humans so please don't deny him that pleasure. He’s very food motivated and most entertaining when he’s chasing down a tossed treat. He does not like dogs and is unpredictable with other cats. Justin would be best as your only pet so he can be in charge. He doesn't have any history with children. He will be shy initially in a new space, yet once he relaxes will happily greet your friends at the door. Justin was rescued from a cat colony in the Bronx. The TNR group planned to release him post neuter (hence his fashionable clipped ear) but he was so good with people they contacted Anjellicle Cats. Justin is FIV positive and has asthma that is well controlled with an inhaler. He doesn’t love the inhaler, but will take his dose with cradling followed by a treat. FIV cats can enjoy just as long and healthy a life as non-FIV cats with good nutrition in a safe, loving home. Justin was born around January 2015.

Their adoption process

Submit Application

Additional adoption info

Once you've filled out an application, we will contact your references and put you in touch with the foster/caregiver of the cat. Once your application is approved, we schedule you to attend a Zoom group seminar on cat care. We invite both novice and experienced alike to attend. Then you would sign the adoption agreement, pay the adoption fee, and make arrangements for the cat to be moved to your home. We always do a home visit which is both reassuring to the cat when it is being introduced and to the foster who has taken care of the cat. Presently we are doing home visits with FaceTime or Zoom to confirm you have secure windows, no toxic plants and a generally safe environment for a cat. The adoption fee is $150 for one cat under 7 years old, $75 for one cat 7 years and older.

All cats have been tested for the Feline Leukemia and FIV virus, vaccinated (FVRCP and Rabies vaccines), microchipped, dewormed and spayed/neutered. If you adopt kittens that are too young to be altered, we will arrange the spay/neuter/microchip at a later date at a partner vet.
