Story
Hello my cats name is Luna and she is about 5 1/2 to 6 years of age we had adopted her when she was about 1 1/2 years old. She is a beautiful calm chill cat. However I have always been allergic to her but adopted her for my daughter but my daughter sadly can no longer care for her. Her and our family schedule has changed and we cannot give Luna the attention and care she needs. I would love to find her beautiful home full of love and care. Someone who has experienced or has cats and would love to add Luna to their family. If you have any questions please let me know

Story
Here’s Herbie, my beautiful, smart 3 year old cat. I adopted him two and a half years ago from a shelter in New Fairfield. He loves to snuggle. He and I have spent lots of time together with him on my chest or on my legs, purring away. He waits for me at the door when I go out. Herbie loves food and I have been able to teach him a couple of tricks using the clicker method and rewarding him with treats. He needs lots of attention. He likes to play; for example, to chase down plastic spring-y toys. But doesn’t like anyone to touch his feet and he hates being in the car. Although most of the time he is a loving, lovable pet, Herbie bites, which is why I’m sadly giving him up.

Story
Valentine is a beautiful 4-year-old shorthaired kitty. She was rescued from the streets of Danbury several days after giving birth. She was an amazing and very attentive mother, and is now ready to find her own forever home. Valentine loves other cats but is still shy with humans. She is more comfortable with her foster mom than her foster dad, so a female adopter may be ideal. She would do best in a quiet home with other cats but no dogs or children. Once you earn Valentine's trust, she will be the sweetest cat. She needs a very patient home that will allow her to warm up and explore in her own time. Valentine is vaccinated, microchipped, spayed and healthy. Her adoption fee is $150. If you would like to meet/adopt Valentine, please complete our online application at https://daws.org/daws-forms.
