Domestic Shorthair kittens & cats in Bristol, Connecticut

Our barn cat program is for our cats that take part in the TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return) program but can't be returned to their communities because of danger or lack of care. These are our less social cats that don't crave the company of people, at least at this point in their lives. These cats are peaceful, easy to care for, and make friends easily with other farm animals. Pictured is our lovely Chula who was adopted as a mouser for the family chicken coop. The family followed the relocation instructions and Chula became queen of the land! Like Chula, many families that have adopted a barn cat report that the cats have become friendly over time and bonded with the other animals as well has the people. Most often, the cats are delivered in pairs by our volunteer that settle the cats in and provide instructions for you to follow. All agree that it is very rewarding to give a home and freedom to a less fortunate cat who just by chance was born without a human hand. Please fill out our application from our website and call 860-479-5173. Thank you!

Cookie is our stunning, one of a kind beauty who will need a one of a kind person. As you can see in her video she really likes her catnip. She also really loves her foster mom and is always near her and cuddling with her, even under a blanket. Cookie is very possessive of her foster mom so she will not greet you with an arched back and happy tail. It took three days for her to warm up to her foster mom. Now, Cookie doesn't let her out of her sight. We do believe that Cookie has 'only kitten syndrome'. This happens to some kittens when they are taken away too young from their mom and are not around other cats. Mama cats are excellent mom's. They are so loving and they discipline their kittens and show them proper behavior. It's best that kittens stay with their mom's until they are eight weeks old. That's if they are not outside rescues, of course. In that case it's best to get them in as soon as possible to keep them out of danger and to socialize. Cookie does need a home because we can't afford to loose any foster homes. Adopting her would open a spot for a new rescue. That means you are really rescuing more than Cookie. We have kitties on the cold streets that need to come in. Please fill out an application for our beautiful girl at our website www.hucatrescue.org. You will get a kick out of her and lots of entertainment. YOU ARE INVITED TO OUR MEET & GREET THIS SUNDAY, APRIL 21ST. WE WILL BE AT PETCO, 188 KITTS LANE, NEWINGTON, CT. USING THE NORTH SHORE ANIMAL LEAGUE VAN. THE HOURS ARE FROM 1:00-3:00 PM. PLEASE FILL OUT AN APPLICATION ON OUR WEBSITE PRIOR TO THE EVENT. THANK YOU!

Our sweet Annabelle is longing for a home or a foster home where she can shine and not worry about kittens jumping on her or other cats getting in the way of her attention. Anna's story is long and she has endured so much. She came to us from a nice person who took her in when her 'family' left her behind after an eviction. They thought she could live in an old barn nearby and that people would feed her. After some time, old barn was demolished and the kind person took Annabelle in but only to realize that she had a severe cat allergy. A peculiar thing about Annabelle that we noticed was that she did not eat much at all and if she had lived in the barn for months why was she never seen with kittens. Was she spayed or not? Nothing made sense. We waited for her tummy to grow then took her in for an ultrasound. Anna was not pregnant so we made an appointment for her spay surgery. An easy procedure that usually takes 20 minutes took our vet, a respected surgeon, two hours and the incision was the length of her whole torso! Turns out that Anna had a congenital growth around her ovaries that was pushing on her other organs. She could not get pregnant. The years of hormonal roller-coaster also contributed to mammary tumors. Luckily all of the biopsies came back benign. Yes, she's our $1000.00 girl! But, it was worth it. We got answers and we did the right thing for her because it was not her fault. It could all have been avoided if she had only been spayed on time when she was what we can only guess an adorable, spunky teenager. Anna also tested positive for FIV antibodies, another thing that could have been avoided had she been spayed on time and not chased by intact males. There is no doubt that she had pain and much discomfort but good news. Anna is eating like never before. She is enjoying her food and healing well. She's looking great. She has a strong spirit that seems to conquer all challenges. She has just one more challenge and that is to find that special person. Anna craves lots of attention and enjoys lap time and reading. She is quiet and not very active so perfect for a small space. Please fill out an application for our beautiful girl on our website at www.hucatrescue.org. Thank you!

Meet Prissy, a feral stray cat who found her way to the right place at the right time! When the cold snap hit, we managed to catch her and bring her inside. Gradually, we've been giving her attention, and she's warmed up to us enough to enjoy being petted. At approximately 9 months old, she's received all her vaccines and has been spayed.

Meet momma Mona. She gave birth in a warehouse and a nice man found her and started feeding her. She is very healthy and very happy and very friendly. Mona has a little sag in her right eye but we don't see any reason for it so we assume it's from an old injury. We think she is probably only about a year old herself and she gave birth at the end of April or beginning of May. Mona is fully vetted and ready to travel.. Mona is super friendly and loving and gets along with other cats as well. if you are interested in adopting please visit Funnyfarmpets.org to read all about our Tennessee based rescue and how the adoption and transport process works.

This crew of 5 black kitties got caught up in a TNR movement in a local neighborhood. Mom was spayed and released but we are hoping we got these babies in time for them to find forever homes and not have to live life outdoors. They are getting more and more sure of people every day and seem to be happy in the AC. Magic and Raven are the 2 friendliest and the boys are still trying to figure us out.
