Story
Jack is a good cat. He has not been fixed and he has had a rabies shot in May. But with my budget I could not afford much else. But he is clean happy and healthy plus friendly. My economic status is getting harder for me to care for Jack the way he should be. I got Jack as a gift last June when he was two and a half months old. I give him baths and he loves to cuddle and temptations treats “ Catnip cheese and chicken. Talks a lot too. Jack will be 20 months December 4th.

Story
My name is Ben and I was born on 4/24/2024 outside of the house of my mom. I was rescued by her because my birth mom wasn’t able to feed me. I was fed by my mom with a bottle since I was 2 weeks old. I am a nice personality kitten who loves to play games with siblings. I love sitting on your laps and I love purrrring I am trained on the litter robot (not afraid of it) and the litter box too. I have my nails trimmed regularly so I do not scratch you. I am trained not to bite while playing with my friends. Or my mom’s hand. I’m cleaned and protected from fleas and other diseases (Revolution Plus - medication. Kill fleas before they lay eggs, kill ticks for a full month, prevent heartworm disease and treat and control roundworms, hookworms and ear mites). I love to cuddle and watch the outside world through the window. And I love to sleep of course. My favorite thing is to play hokey with a bottle cup that my mom gives me after she empty the bottles of water. So fun!

Meet Newton and his siblings Darwin, Curie, Einstein & Goodall! If you are interested in our kittens and would like to arrange the meet and greet at fosters homes, please complete the adoption application using the following link (copy & paste it into your browser) https://form.jotform.com/82828565257166 or text us for more info at (908) 986-2505 Our cats and kittens are allowed to be adopted anywhere in NYC/NJ/Long Island. Please note, all our kittens under 6 months old are available in pairs only or to the home with another cat/cat friendly dog. Bonded pairs will not be split up. Newton and his siblings are now accepting the adoption application! You may ask how we came up with these names. And the answer is very simple- these 5 adorable siblings lost their mother and they were picked up by the home owner of the yard they were roaming around in distress looking for their mommy. The home owner is a science teacher and without a doubt he gave them the perfect names! These kittens were a little shy, but with love and care they warmed out and absolutely love their new inside life. They are available for adoption in pairs or they can be adopted separately to the home with another playful cat or cat friendly dog.

Story
Alfred is a 6 year old tuxedo cat. He is very timid. He was found in someone's backyard as a kitten and taken to the shelter where I adopted him. Unfortunately, as of late my allergies and other health issues have become very severe. As a result, Alfred's needs are being neglected. I am looking for a compassionate and experienced owner with no other pets in the home who can take good care of Alfred and give him the life he deserves. He is a very sweet and loving cat. He loves to cuddle on your lap and make biscuits. Lately, due to my health issues, I have not been able to play with him or cuddle him and this has led him to be neglected. I am noticing some behavioral changes in him due to his lack of play. These changes include some mild aggression towards me out of frustration and some vocalization. I know that these behaviors will subside as soon as he gets the play and affection he needs, but I unfortunately can no longer provide that.
