Story
Gabriel came to the shelter as a Barn Cat because he wasn’t too sure about people. It didn’t take long for his personality to shine, as he was very social with the other cats. He can currently be found in Mitzi’s Place and if you want his attention all you must do is grab a toy. To say that he loves to play is an understatement. He will stop EVERYTHING and run over to play with whatever you have to play with. Since his intake in March, he has warmed up to the idea of people, and if you spend enough time playing with him, he will start to show affection. He is wonderful with other cats, and you should definitely come say hi!

Story
Meet Merlin and Galahad, four-year-old “Bros”! These two bring new meaning to brotherly love so we would really love for them to go together! We ended up with these two after their owner was unfortunately no longer able to care for them. Thankfully, they had each other and are thriving under the circumstances. You really get the best of both worlds with these two! Merlin, the long-haired Wizard, has the beauty and Galahad, the short-haired Knight, has the brawn. Not to mention both have the most dazzling eyes and silky coats. While these two are adorably affectionate with each other they are equally affectionate with all of our volunteers! These large boys love attention, getting pets and of course getting into trouble together! With these two having such a tight bond they need to be the only cats in the household. Do you have it in your heart to give these two the forever home they deserve?  Both boys have been neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, flea treated, and have tested negative for FELV/FIV. To express an interest in adopting this pair, you need to fill out our adoption application, including as much detail as possible, at https://kittycorner.org/adoption/application/. Please be sure that your email address is correct. If your application is accepted, KittyCorner will contact you via email to set up a time for you to come and meet them.  Your donation of $100 per cat will contribute to the cost of veterinary care that the cat(s) received for all the above-mentioned procedures/treatments.  KittyCorner is a New York State Registered Shelter/Rescue, Registration Number: RR0279. *All kittycorner.org kittens/cats come with a lifetime “cat-back” guarantee. If at any time, for any reason they need to be returned/rehomed, please just return them to KittyCorner. We will happily take them back as our mission is to ensure that all of our adoptees will always have a safe place to stay and call home. November 4, 2024, 9:59 pm

Good with cats, Needs special attention, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Meet Patrick Henry, an extremely playful and energetic 11-month-old kitten. When he was young, Patrick developed a feline herpes viral infection, which in cats gives them red, runny eyes and occasional nasal discharge. This is in no way related to human herpes and is not transmissible to humans. Actually, 90-95% of the feline population tests positive for feline herpes virus, but more than 50% show no symptoms.  In fact, none of Patrick’s littermates developed any symptoms, including his sister and companion, Abigail Adams, with whom he would like to be adopted. At times of stress, Patrick may need to have his eyes treated with over-the-counter Artificial Tears; or if his nose gets stuffy, he might occasionally need to be put on a course of antibiotics, but even though Patrick was dealt this unlucky hand, he doesn’t let it affect him in the slightest. No matter what is going on, I can assure you Patrick will be first on the scene to assess the situation. He is a very curious, cute kitten who will steal your heart as soon as you meet him. Do you have the desire to take this special kitten and his lovely, energetic sister, Abby, in open arms? Patrick has been neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, flea treated, and has tested negative for FeLV and FIV. To express an interest in adopting him, you need to fill out our adoption application, including as much detail as possible, at https://kittycorner.org/adoption/application/.  Please be sure that your email address is correct. If your application is accepted, KittyCorner will contact you via email to set up a time for you to come and meet him.  Your donation of $100 per cat will contribute to the cost of veterinary care that the cat(s) received for all the above-mentioned procedures/treatments.  KittyCorner is a New York State Registered Shelter/Rescue, Registration Number: RR0279. *All kittycorner.org kittens/cats come with a lifetime “cat-back” guarantee.

Meet April, this beauty has the prettiest gray and fawn torti-tabby (“torbie”) coat and green eyes that will mesmerize you.

April proved to be a good first-time mom but is now ready to be spoiled and have it be all about her. Barely more than a kitten herself, April is starting to come into her own and is looking for someone to cultivate a relationship with her. She loves attention, play and of course lots of treats. April is ready to find her forever home and bring sparkle to her new family!

Hey there, Everyone!  My name is Abigail Adams, but my friends call me Abby! I was born right here at KittyCorner on July 11, 2023, so naturally I am a social butterfly that everyone loves to be around. I love playing, cuddling and basking in the sun.

I am more than ready to find my forever home and become the social media starlet I know I am destined to be. If showering me with affection and treats is your desire, then I would love to be your muse! ~ XOXO Abby  Abby has been spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, flea treated, and has tested negative for Feline Leukemia and Feline AIDS.

Story
Hello there! I’m Cato! I’m a charming and playful kitten, rescued along with my mom Polly from the streets. We’re hoping to find our forever home together, but if that’s not possible, I’d need to join a family with another young cat or kitten to play with. After experiencing life on the streets, I appreciated the simple joys – like feeling safe and loved. And, might I add, I’m quite the dashing gentleman, boating a stunning coat that’s sure to catch your eye! It may take me a little time to warm up to new friends, but once I do, get ready for play time galore! I know a bright future awaits and I am just so exited to find my forever family so I can light up their lives! Cato's date of birth is on or about April 25, 2024 and has been neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, flea treated, and has tested negative for Feline Leukemia and Feline AIDS. *All kittens need to be adopted in pairs or into a home with another kitten or playful young adult cat.
