Domestic Shorthair kittens & cats in Norristown, Pennsylvania

**Working cats seek safe outdoor homes!** We ALWAYS have cats available that are unable to be adopted into traditional homes because they are choosy about human companionship and prefer to live their lives on their own terms. They are excellent mousers and would be eternally grateful to find homes where they can roam free! The common term is "barn cats," but we are always open to also working with unconventional situations such as feed stores, community gardens, single-family homes, etc.. Most of our working cats are feral and have been rescued from unsafe outdoor environments (such as construction zones or places where people are threatening to poison them) and cannot return to where we trapped them. Instead, they find themselves here with us, waiting desperately for a second chance to live happy and free. Working cats have no adoption fees, and we provide free of cost all of the supplies that you'll need to help them acclimate to their new homes, as well as support, advice, and encouragement throughout the entire process. We always love to stay in touch with our adopters and sometimes do so for the cats' whole life spans! We promise that you will be thrilled with your decision to adopt a working/barn cat (or cats!)--there is truly nothing like the feeling of knowing that you have literally given a cat a second chance at happiness. All of our cats are healthy and fully vetted prior to adoption including spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and tested for FIV/FeLV. Thank you for considering them!

Seline is one of our special cases. He's a sweet boy who seems to have seasonal allergies. We're treating him, so he's much more comfortable. He loves to be brushed and to get help reaching all of those nooks and crannies he can't get. He'd be great in a calm house with a beautiful view, he does love watching the birds fly past!  He would do well with Frenchie his roommate or another laid back cat. ##1077524##

My markings are some of the most unique!  The thumb print on my nose is eye catching!  My favorite place is up high in my perch, so I can watch what is going on in my room.  I do like a laser pointer and a good stretch on the scratching post!  I'm pretty low maintenece and may take a little bit to come out of my shell, but brushings and treats do work wonders!  I get along well with Seline and we'd make great pets for someone looking for some low key kitties. ##1105165##

Faith has been through quite a lot of change in her young life! She craves stability and love, and she truly deserves that and more. Will you please share her story and help us to help her? Faith was found by another rescue group several years ago struggling to survive outdoors with two tiny kittens. They were brought into foster care, and her kittens were adopted, leaving her all alone. She was then sadly bounced around to several different foster homes for a variety of reasons that had absolutely nothing to do with her. As if that wasn't tragic enough, her last stop was with a person who abused and neglected her, including locking her in a crawl space with no food, water, or litter box. When the other rescue group was made aware of her plight they had no open space in their foster system but were desperate to get her to safety, and that is how she made her way to Cat Crew. Faith has been with us for two years now, and, though she is safe and cared for, she has made it clear that she would prefer not to share her space with other cats, and she would love a quiet, low-key family. With all of the change and stress that she has been through, she is nervous about trusting new humans, but she is incredibly brave and resilient and is doing her best! She currently does not like to be petted but does love treats and loves to play, and she will engage with her foster mom through both of those activities. We are absolutely certain that in the right home, one with calm and patient owners, she will blossom into the wonderful girl that she is meant to be. You can see in her eyes that this is all she wants, and we are desperately hoping that there is a wonderful family who is willing to give her that chance! Bonding with a shy cat is like NOTHING else in the world. Faith's adoption fee is waived, and we will be here 24/7 to support whoever opens their hearts to give her a safe space. We would also be thrilled to find her a new foster home, if you are not sure if you want to adopt--we will pay all ongoing vet costs and give you all of the supplies that you need! We just desperately want to get her into a home where she can finally be herself again. Faith is about five years old and is healthy and fully vetted including spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and FIV/FeLV negative. She has her whole life ahead of her...please help her to find her happiness again!

Lapa aka Boo is a bit of a shy girl at first, but once she gets to know you she is the sweetest. Her favorite toy is a shoestring that she carries around. She likes to headbutt and rub against you when she wants attention and she is not shy about letting you know. She purrs so loud when she's happy. Boo is a very chatty cat, especially when she wants something, like food or pets. And while not a lap cat, she will happily sit next to you on the couch. She tolerates dogs, but is still a little scared around them, so a slow introduction would be best. Boo would be happiest in a home where she is the only cat. If you're looking for a sweet cat, she's the one for you!.

Penny was rescued, along with her son, in an unsafe location in August 2023. We believe she was once a pet of renters who moved out & left her behind. It took some time for Penny to trust her foster mom, but now she loves pets, attention, playing with toys, and cuddling next to her on a soft blanket. The person who is interested in adopting Penny will need to have patience to earn her trust and love. We believe she will do well in a household with another cat. She will usually mimic another cat temperament. If you are interested in 2 cats, please check out Roo's profile. He has been fostered with her, and they get along great!

The staff is getting to know me! Look for my bio soon.Brandywine Valley SPCA1212 Phoenixville PikeWest Chester, PA 19380PA Kennel License #01647

Maxie is a sweet and attention seeking lovey girl who just so happens to be blind and has a heat murmur. While we want to be up front about that, you'll see in our notes below that we think she's still a fantastic family pet! She’s been blind, her whole life so she adapts really quickly to her surroundings. After a few days she had her bearings and use the litter box 100% of the time. She loves her food and snacks. She is apprehensive around other animals and has yet to have a fully positive reaction to my other cats. It’s mostly been flight or freeze, but I’m hopeful that eventually she’ll come around and would do well in a household with very calm older animals. I don’t see her doing well in a household with children, she gets very scared by quick movements because she has heightened sense of hearing consents and feel movement. She loves being held like a baby on your shoulder and just in general, she wraps herself around your legs when you walk and loves butt scratches.
