My story

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

Meet Millie - Watch my video!

*needs to go to a home with a `cat social` cat

Sweet Millie is a teenage kitten that was trapped at an outside cat colony and has been in a foster home the last month learning all about humans. For her life so far, she has lived with other cats outside, so she will need a very slow transition into your home to help her feel secure and prevent her from feeling overwhelmed. Luckily, she is incredibly attracted to other cats. She simply comes alive and starts purring when she sees them, so we know that her adopter must have a cat friendly cat to help her build confidence and feel secure as she learns the ways of her new home. She is looking for a home that can provide her with a stable routine and an environment that carefully challenges her to step outside her comfort zone. She would do best in an adult only home or a home with older respectful kids. Millie has already begun making great progress in our care, leaning into pets and purring with visits - watch her video to see this lovely girl interact with a volunteer.

Millie is currently up to date on all vaccines, spayed/neutered, microchipped, and has been seen by our veterinarian.

For more information on Millie or any other animal currently residing at the Animal Rescue League of Boston, please call us at 617-426-9170. We welcome adopters from NH, RI, CT, and NY. However, we will be unable to facilitate same day adoptions due to state regulated paperwork requirements.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

The Animal Rescue League of Boston is committed to matching adoptable animals with a permanent home. Our conversation-based, application-free adoption process is designed so that the needs of both the animal and the adopter are understood and compatible with one another. We require the following as part of the adoption process:
* Adopter must be 18 years of age or older
* A current government-issued ID (no student IDs)
* Have a conversation with an ARL adoption counselor
* A photo of the cage your pet will live in, if adopting a small animal or bird
