Story
Yinny is a sweet 3 year old tuxedo girl that needs to be rehomed because my living situation changed and she does not get along with the other cat that I now live with. She was rescued from a neglect situation, so she tends to want a lot of attention and pets and would do best with someone who is home a lot. She tends to be skittish/defensive with other animals, so she would do best in a one pet household. She is extremely gentle and has never scratched or bit me in the year that I've had her, although she can be a little vocal when she wants attention. If you are interested in a cuddly lap cat, this is the girl for you.

Millie is a beautiful tuxedo girl who is warming up to life in a home after surviving on the streets for the first 2 years of her life. After some trauma, she had one last litter of kittens, has recovered and is now ready for a life of her own where she can receive love and attention. Millie is a little shy as people were not always kind to her. She is showing her foster mom more and more of her sweet side and is starting to trust humans. She needs a patient adopter who will give her time to be comfortable.This cat is waiting for it's Forever Home!

Story
Hi, my name is Blanche and I am a rare cat and I will tell you why! I am an orange tabby girl and that is rare because most orange cats are boys. I kind of feel special and hope that you will feel the same way about me. I am a really pretty girl who prefers the single life, just me and my person. I came from a not so happy situation and would like to place my order for my next life with a 'human' to be in a quiet home. I am 2 1/2 years young and I just have to brag about another unique thing about me...I am a bob tail cat! Wow...God really did a unique put together on me when I came in to the world. My foster mom says it is great because there is no tail to knock things off the counter. HA! You need to grab me NOW! I am a one in a million gal. Just please email Critter Cavalry Rescue at : ccrnewengland@gmail.com Our vetting is extensive: Spay, rabies, FIV vaccine, FIV tested and negative, fecal and dewormings and a Drontal and microchipped. PLEASE NOTE: Our dogs and cats are fostered in Tennessee and can transport weekly up to the Northeast region.

I am Lovey Dovey Luna, a Princess and Queen among many who want to rule my domain. I am a gorgeous 10 month tabby girl ready to go to my throne in your home if you will offer me a queenly scepter. Just so you know how to make my home a grand place to live…I will require toys…Lots of toys! And I am requesting a sunny spot in a window to be all mine every day. Of course I have had the full Queenly treatment of being spayed and updated on my vaccines. I have only had the best of vetting in preparation of being adopted and living to be 20 years old…as some well-kept cats can do. If you are interested in my beauty and charm to permeate your house with love, here I am. A ready Queen just for you. Please email ccrnewengland@gmail.com. Critter Cavalry Rescue is there to help you take my paw in total cat commitment.

Story
Petra is a young female tabby cat estimated to be around 1 year old. A little bit of her background...she was living outside when she was rescued. It turns out that she was pregnant but, sadly both her kittens passed away and we had to do an emergency spay to save Petra's life. Thankfully we got her to the vet in time and she made a full recovery! Petra is initially shy with new people, but once you gain her trust, the first thing she will do is rub over and present you her belly. While with most cats this is a trap, Petra really does love belly rubs! She would be the greatest companion as all she wants is to be around people. Petra is currently sharing space with other cats and is doing ok, however we think she would rather either be a solo cat or in a home with a very laid back cat who doesn't get in the way of her getting the attention she desires. Cats are negative for FelV/FIV, receive age-appropriate vaccines and deworming, are spayed/neutered and are microchipped (free lifetime registration with adoption).All of our pets go home with a "Go Home Goody Bag" that includes a starter supply of food, treats, toys, and a voucher for a free month of pet insurance from Trupanion.Location: Bolton, CTAdoption Fee: 250##1993300##
