My story

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

MEET SPARROW!

Sparrow is a sweet, independent girl who has recently discovered a soft spot for human companionship. In her foster home, she first kept to cozy hiding spots, but soon graduated to curling up on the bed next to (or on!) her person. She has quickly evolved into an affectionate lap cat who doesn’t mind being picked up, loves belly rubs, and will happily make biscuits on you while purring away. Sparrow has no problem entertaining herself, enjoying endless solo playtime with her balls and strings. She does best with slow, gentle approaches and may take a little time to warm up, especially with sudden movements or loud noises. Sparrow is ready for a patient, loving forever home where she can keep building confidence and share her gentle affection.

Sparrow may benefit from having another social friendly cat in her new home.

Sparrow is currently up to date on all vaccinations, has been spayed/neutered, microchipped, and seen by our vet team.

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
