Story
Sid (short for Obsidian) is a domestic shorthair--her coat is almost completely black except for a few white hairs on her chest and belly. She is one of six kittens born on 7/31/24 to a feral who had been trapped for TNR and has been handled and socialized since her birth. Sid can be a little shy initially, but when she feels comfortable she is bold, talkative, and affectionate, and loves chasing wand toys as well as anything that can be sent skittering across the floor. She is, for a cat, relatively respectful of personal space and loves floor-pets; when she's tired will climb into your lap of her own accord for a snuggle. Sid gets along well with her siblings and should do well with another cat or a calm dog; she has been toddler-tested and will get along well with even younger children so long as they don't manhandle her. Sid tested FIV and FeLV negative and has her first rabies, FeLV, and distemper vaccinations.

Story
Rosemary is a domestic shorthair with a "standard cat" mackerel tabby pattern coat. She is one of six kittens born on 7/31/24 to a feral who had been trapped for TNR and has been handled and socialized since her birth. Rosie was the runt of the litter, but has caught up with her siblings. She is friendly, inquisitive, playful, and affectionate, and loves to explore and climb and play with wand toys and with anything she can bat across the floor. When she's tired, Rosie is a cuddler and will snuggle down into your arms and purr herself to sleep. Though she has not been tested with dogs, she gets along well with her siblings and is not afraid of the larger cats in her foster home; her boldness makes it likely that she would adapt to a friendly dog. She has been toddler-tested and should get along with a small child who isn't allowed to manhandle her. Rosemary tested FIV and FeLV negative and has her first rabies, FeLV, and distemper vaccinations.

Story
Hello friends, my name is Robot, a somewhat sedentary senior. I came here with my doggo buddy, Pixie, when our human passed away. Right now, the shelter is kind of overwhelming, so I spend a lot of time napping in my room. If you`re gentle and patient, I might let you softly pet my head or cheeks. I`m sorry I`m not that interactive right now but I think more of my purr-sonality will show once I`m settled into my new home. Do you think you can give me a chance? Call, email or stop by the shelter during open hours if you`d like to know more about adoption! (607)257-1822 x221 adoptions@spcaonline.com
