Story
NOTE: A portion of the adoption fee for Suzie is generously being sponsored by an anonymous donor. She can be yours at a reduced fee of $200, pending the standard adoption approval process. Suzie is a sweet girl who needs someone to take a chance on her. She came from a not-so-great situation, so it has taken a while for her foster parents to build up trust with her. She now allows her foster parents to pet, give kisses and even hold her! She is not a lap cat yet, but she is getting there. She loves to sit in the window while hanging out with her foster mom and watching what is going on outside. Because of the situation she was in prior to being fostered, she needs to be the only cat in the household. Suzie was born around March 2021, and she is currently being fostered in Ansonia.  She is fixed, is up-to-date on shots, is microchipped and tested neg for FIV/FeLV* ' All of our cats and kittens are cared for in loving foster homes. "Meet and greets" can be arranged only after an application has been submitted and approved.  Application for adoption can be found at  https://www.fosterandforever.org/     Our volunteers do their best to respond within 24 - 48 hrs.

Story
Josie is a silly, feisty, small-sized bundle of fun. She LOVES playing with toys and running around after the other cats/kittens. She especially loves rolling around in the cat tunnel and playing with her little stuffed animals. She carries them around, tosses them around, and likes to bathe them in her water dish.  Josie is a shy girl but enjoys getting pet on her head and behind the ears. She can be picked up and handled but is not a fan of being held for long periods of time. She has suffered a right eye trauma as a kitten, and the issue is managed with eye drops. She has expressive eyes that will melt your heart. Josie needs a quiet/calm household as she is skittish of people and loud noises. She loves to play and would do well with other cats/kittens. She would love another cat to chase around, but a home with small children is not recommended as it might make her nervous. Josie was born around the end of February 2022 and is currently being fostered in New Haven. She is fixed, has had her rabies and first distemper shots, is microchipped and tested neg for FIV/FeLV* All of our cats and kittens are cared for in loving foster homes. "Meet and greets" can be arranged only after an application has been submitted and approved. Application for adoption can be found at https://www.fosterandforever.org/  Our volunteers do their best to respond within 24 - 48 hrs.   November 6, 2024, 9:46 am
