Meet Dipper and Bugsy—two adorable siblings who are approximately 13 weeks old and ready to find families of their own! 💙💕
💙 Dipper – Male�💕 Bugsy – Female
These sweet kittens are everything you could want in a furry companion. They love being petted, happily curl up on your lap, and absolutely adore snuggling together. When they're not cuddling, they're busy being playful kittens—running through the house, chasing toys, and wrestling with each other until it's time for another nap.
They can be a little shy when meeting someone new, but it doesn't take long before they're asking for pets and purring like tiny motorboats. Once they trust you, their affectionate personalities truly shine. ❤️
Dipper and Bugsy have received their first FVRCP vaccination and have tested negative for FIV/FeLV. They will be spayed/neutered and receive their second vaccination when they are old enough.
We are now accepting applications for their forever homes!
Because kittens do best with a feline friend, Dipper and Bugsy can be adopted together, in a pair, or individually into a home that already has another friendly cat to keep them company.
If you're ready to add love, laughter, and lots of purrs to your home, we'd love for you to meet Dipper or Bugsy! 🐾❤️

🐾❤️ A Complete Transformation for a Shy Colony Cat — Happy Tails, Bojangles! ❤️🐾
When Bojangles first came to us, he was a shy colony cat who had been living outside. After being rescued by our wonderful TNR volunteer it took him quite some time to understand that he was safe and to learn to trust his foster.

But slowly, patiently, and with lots of love, Bojangles blossomed. 🥹❤️

He became a loving, wonderful cat and spent an entire year with his amazing foster. who never gave up on him and gave him the time and patience he needed.

Today, we are beyond happy to announce that Bojangles has been ADOPTED by the TSE family of Staten Island! 🎉🏡❤️

Before his adoption, we explained to the TSE family that Bojangles would most likely need time to adjust. We expected that he might hide for a while and take some time before feeling comfortable enough to truly open up.

The TSE family understood. They were patient. They followed our instructions and started him out in a small, quiet area before gradually allowing him to explore the rest of their home.

And then… Stanley surprised us all! 🥰

Bojangles is now Stanley, and he quickly adjusted to his new home and his new family. He is absolutely thriving! 🐱❤️

Stanley is comfortable sleeping on the couch and finding cozy spots throughout his new home. He’s playing, birdwatching, eating, relaxing, and — best of all — receiving lots and lots of love and pets from his new family. 🥹🐾

We couldn’t be happier to see this once-shy colony cat enjoying the life he always deserved.

A huge THANK YOU to the TSE family for opening your hearts and your home to a shy cat and giving Stanley the chance to show you just how special he is. ❤️

And to Jaimie his wonderful foster, thank you for loving him, believing in him, and giving him the year he needed to blossom. ❤️🐾

Sometimes the shyest cats just need someone willing to wait for them. And Stanley found exactly that.

🏡❤️ Wishing the TSE family and Stanley a very long, happy, love-filled life together!

Meet Peeka 🤍🐾
Please meet our stunning girl, Peeka! 🥰

Peeka is a beautiful 2-year-old pure white female cat who came to us through a rehoming situation. She has always been the only cat in her home, so she is used to being the center of attention.

Peeka is very friendly, affectionate, and loving. She enjoys sitting on her person’s lap, getting lots of pets, and soaking up all the attention she can get. ❤️ She also has a playful side and loves having fun with her toys!

And Peeka has the cutest little quirk! 💦🐾 She loves to drink her water by dipping her paw right into her water bowl and then licking the water off her paw. 🥹🤍 It’s absolutely adorable and just one of the many things that makes this sweet girl so special!

Now, Peeka is ready for her next chapter and a loving forever home where she can have the fresh start she deserves. 🏡💕

✨ Peeka is:

2 years old
Spayed
Up to date on vaccinations
FIV/FeLV negative
Friendly, affectionate, and playful
Because Peeka has always been a solo cat, we don’t yet know how she would do living with another cat. As always, if introducing her to a feline friend, we recommend a slow and proper introduction to give everyone the best chance of success.
Could Peeka be the girl you’ve been waiting for? 🥹🤍

If you would like to adopt Peeka, please apply online! And be sure to check out the adorable videos of this sweet girl in the comments. 🎥🐱

Let’s help Peeka find the loving forever home she deserves! 🐾❤️

Please help us share Panther’s story so we can find him the loving forever home he deserves. 🏡🐾
