Story
Meet Zero, our 2 y/o grey short-haired cat with bright green eyes! Sadly, our buildings new owners won’t allow pets without insane fees. We’re looking to find this snuggly, silly guy a new home where he can live a long, happy life. He loves his humans- once you win him over, he’ll be glued to your side. He’s super snuggly with his people. Zero can be a bit unfriendly towards strangers, and would do best in a home that doesn’t have strangers in and out constantly. We don’t think that should mean he needs to end up in a shelter. He adores his bestie—a playful dog— & would do well in a house with a pup! LOVES to perch high up, keeping an eye on his house and family. He’s a well-mannered guy who doesn’t scratch up the furniture, we’ve taught him to use his post. He’s in great health, up-to-date on all vaccines, and has never had any health issues. He will come to you with his food bowl, toys, a tunnel, and his scratching post (if you want), & plenty of wet & dry food!

Story
Miko is a lively little guy who is ready to find his forever home! Rescued as a stray, this playful kitten is full of energy and loves to explore. He’s up to date on all his vaccinations, returned with clean blood work and has successfully completed treatment for ringworm. Due to a busy household and an adult male cat who hasn’t adjusted well to his presence, we’re looking to find Miko a loving family where he can thrive. He would do wonderfully in a home with other cats who can match his playful spirits. If you’re ready to add a bundle of joy to your life Miko is waiting for you!

Story
Due to the overpopulation, Honeybelle is being fostered in South Florida. We are ready with transport to bring him to his forever family. Named after the rarest orange in nature, female orange tabby cats are rather rare (only 1 out of every 5). Our sweet Honeybell is very affectionate, tolerant of the other pets in her current foster home. But, longs for a permanent family of her own. She is a healthy, spayed female, current on all vaccinations and microchipped. She is also FelvFiv negative. To ensure the right fit for both Pet and family, all of our adoptions are ’foster-to-adopt’. This means that, whatever the reason, we will always accept the pet back to our care, in one of our homes (not a cage at a boarding facility or shelter) if the adopter(s) has a change of heart or circumstance. This is one of the many benefits of opting to adopt from a local Rescue organization over a store purchase or shelter Adoption. East Coast Pet Rescue is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, where all donations are tax-deductible. Receipts available upon request. 305-916-EAST(3278) info@eastcoastpetrescue.org;

Story
Adopted from RISPCA. She and her siblings were all born there. She is in good health and never shown any signs of medical issues. Roughly 7 months old currently. The main reason I am choosing to rehome her is my adult cat and her do not get along. My adult cat is much more secluded and to herself, but the kitten is not. Of course this is normal kitten behavior, but my cat has grown stressed and it appears she may no longer feel comfortable in her own home. Because I got my adult cat long before the kitten, I am choosing to give up the kitten.

Story
Bo is 7yrs and 4 months old as of Sept 2024. I adopted him in the fall of 2021 when I lived in NYC. He and I moved to MA in 2023. A typical day for Bo starts with breakfast and some playing around. He loves chasing whatever is at the end of a wand/string combo. After 10-15 minutes of playing he gets a lil sleepy and takes a nap for a few hours. Dinner at 5pm and he wants to play some more. He’s very affectionate and will come to perfect strangers if called calmly. He can be a bit nervous, startled by loud noises. He gets vocal if his human is home but separated by a closed door where he can’t reach you to play or cuddle. He loves to cuddle or lay near/on people. He could use a human who’s experienced with cats who get a little nervous and skilled at curbing scratching tendencies. A quiet home with a loving and experienced owner will give both of you years of love and cuddles.

Bulma is sweet, playful, and loves to be petted. She is not a lap cat; however she loves to cuddle on her own terms. Bulma will be 2 years old in December. Bulma is independent, is great with children, and good with other cats (after a few days, not right away. She needs time to get to know them).
