Cats Available For Adoption

The following cats and kittens are available for adoption through The Animal Center:

AGGIE is a playful kitty who has adapted beautifully from a once shy, free-roaming cat to one who loves human attention. Aggie started her life as a community cat, and Animal Center officials first met her when her caretaker was evicted from her home in Sandy Hook. Aggie was cared for outside with her feline friends until the winter, when she was brought into The Animal Center’s program to live with a foster family. Nicknamed Peanut for her diminutive size, Aggie is not small on personality. She loves to bat toys around and playfully chase her foster friend, Cecily who is also from this community cat colony. Aggie shows no signs of missing outdoor life and each day grows more comfortable with people and the noises of busy human life. Aggie has many special qualities, and one of the most fun is that she wags her tail like a puppy to show she’s happy. Aggie is approximately two years old, spayed, healthy, and current on vaccines.

CECILY is a sweet kitty who, after living outside as part of a group of community cats, is loving the touch of humans. Cecily was part of group of neighborhood cats cared for by a Sandy Hook woman until she got evicted. Animal Center officials recently brought Cecily into their foster program, along with her feline pal, Aggie, and they’re loving life. Once so shy she would run away from people, Cecily makes great progress each day adjusting to human noises, being inside, and enjoying lots of petting. Cecily loves to run and chase Aggie, and though she keeps a watchful eye on the wildlife through the window, she is very happy being inside during these cold days and nights. Cecily is about three years old, spayed, healthy, and current on vaccines.

POP TART, PEACHES & PENNY: When Animal Center volunteers found Penny, Peaches, and Pop Tart in Sandy Hook, they were so sick that their illness nearly claimed their vision. But thanks the support of friends and members, these kittens were immediately brought into The Animal Center’s foster program, where eye surgery and several months of intensive medical care have made all the difference. Pop Tart, Peaches and Penny have recovered from surgery and would love to get adopted. Their vet calls them his little “Super Stars” because of their super-sweet personalities and amazing recovery.

NEW KITTY is a friendly, affectionate and very sweet cat who was found in the fall on Honey Lane in Sandy Hook. The kind family who found him has put up “found cat” posters, but no one has claimed him. Animal Center officials believe that he was left behind when his owners moved. New Kitty loves to have his belly rubbed and would be a great addition to any household looking for an affectionate four legged companion.

PUDGE and ONYX are cats who are currently at Mt Pleasant Hospital For Animals and are available for adoption. Pudge is a handsome, all white male cat, about four years old. He is a special needs cat because he’s a diabetic. Pudge is very sweet and wants more than anything to find a home to call his own. He has been in a cage at Mt Pleasant Hospital for Animals for a long time now and would like to go home.

Onyx is a 3-year-old, handsome black cat. His owner moved and left him behind. Onyx is a bit on the chubby side, but who didn’t gain a few pounds over the holidays? He loves being petted and snuggling. He’s current on all vaccines. To adopt Pudge or Onyx, call Mt Pleasant at 203-426-8585 or email info@theanimalcenter.org.
