My story

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

Meet Ben, a true golden boy and one of our favorite feline friends! He’s sure to be your favorite as soon as you meet him, too.

Ben is known as the king of snuggles! He loves to climb all over and cuddle up to his people, followed by lots of happy purrs! This cat is the perfect mix of sweet, affectionate and independent. He wants to hang out with friends and get pets, but he isn’t too clingy, either. Ben also enjoys going off on his own and taking catnaps somewhere cozy! He’s such a smart and sensitive cat that when he senses someone is stressed, he will come over to them, rub his head and ask for pets to help them relax.

Ben is an older gentleman who has some minor medical needs that his adopter should be aware of. Our team will be happy to discuss his care with you. Regardless, he is a super active and playful guy who just wants a loving home of his own. This clever boy is sure to show you his appreciation with lots of love and affection!

  • Ben would probably be a good fit for most families.
  • Ben has previously lived well with other cats and dogs!
  • An Admissions and Placement Specialist will be able to provide you with information about Ben’s medical needs.

*The ASPCA Adoption Center encourages a $150 suggested adoption fee when adopting an animal. This suggested adoption fee allows the ASPCA to continue our lifesaving work and help even more animals in need. We are grateful for any and all amounts given at the time of adoption.*

**The ASPCA is committed to prioritizing the health and safety of the community, the animals in our care and our staff, and we are keeping a close eye on developments related to the COVID-19 crisis as they evolve. As such, the ASPCA Adoption Center in New York City is currently closed for in-person visitors. However, we are excited to offer remote adoptions using video conferencing! In-person meet-and-greets are also sometimes available or required for specific animals. Please check out our available cats and dogs above, and if one catches your eye, apply directly for him or her. An ASPCA Matchmaker will let you know if the animal you are interested in adopting is eligible for or requires an in-person meet-and-greet.

Please note: Adoption applications are handled in the order they are received and submitting an adoption survey does not constitute a hold or guaranteed adoption. You can expect to receive automated emails updating you on your adoption status as our Matchmakers go through applications. Thank you for your patience, and we hope you find your match!**

More about this shelter

The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) was the first humane society to be established in North America and is, today, one of the largest in the world. Our organization was founded by Henry Bergh in 1866 on the belief that animals are entitled to kind and respectful treatment at the hands of humans, and must be protected under the law. Headquartered in New York City, the ASPCA maintains a strong local presence, and with programs that extend our anti-cruelty mission across the country, we are recognized as a national animal welfare organization. We are a privately funded 501(c)(3) not-for-profit corporation, and proud to boast more than 1 million supporters across the country.
