🌸 Tiger Lily is just 1 year old… but she’s already spent 5 long months in the shelter with no applications. 💔

She’s shy, a true wallflower, and often hides while the kittens steal the spotlight. But Tiger Lily has so much quiet love to give. She’ll come out of her bed when the room is calm, loves a good brushing and and she gets along with other cats.
Tiger Lily needs a patient, loving home with another friendly cat to help her confidence grow. She has so many years ahead to give her heart to the right family. 💜

Please don’t overlook her—sometimes the shyest cats are the ones who love the deepest.

Our handsome boy Saturn is the last one left from his litter—and we can’t believe it! At 6 months old, this sweet guy is quiet, soft-spoken, and sweet as honey 🍯. Don’t let his gentle nature fool you though—he’s also playful, curious, and full of silly antics that will keep you smiling.

Saturn loves other kitties, adores snuggles with his humans, and is happy when he’s being held close. 💕 Truly the total package!

Let’s find Saturn the forever family he deserves—could it be you? 🐾💫

💔 Pip’s BFF was adopted… and once again, she watched another friend leave while she stayed behind. She doesn’t understand why.

This sweet 2-year-old Pointer mix is happy, friendly, and full of love. She just needs the right active home to finally call her own. 🐾

Please don’t let her keep waiting—Pip deserves her happy ending too. 💛

😻🐾 Cat chatter: Mr. Leo, our handsome orange tabby adopted in 2023💛 His life just keeps getting sweeter! His parents tied the knot this summer, and guess who was part of the celebration? Check out the adorable favors they gave their guests in his honor 😻🐾. We just love seeing our alumni so loved and cherished—congratulations to the happy couple (and to Leo, of course)!

"Hello,
My husband and I adopted Mr.Leo (now just Leo) from y'all in January 2023! I've attached a few pictures below. We got married this June, and we had stickers made of "good" and "evil" Leo for guests at our wedding!
Thank you for bringing him into our lives ❤️" - Sarah

💔 One year. That’s how long Jesse has been waiting at our shelter with no home of her own.

This gorgeous tuxedo girl is our resident diva – she does things on her own terms. Since moving into Purrington Lounge, she’s blossomed into such an affectionate cat. Jesse will rub against you to ask for pets, sit by your side soaking up love, and then politely let you know when she’s done by walking away.

She’s independent, she’s stunning, and she just needs someone who understands her personality and will accept her exactly as she is. ✨

Please, let’s not make her wait any longer. 🐾

✨Happy Ending Update✨

Mikey (formerly Simba) hit the jackpot back in 2022 when he was adopted by our amazing dog walking volunteer, Stacey! 🐾💙

These days, Mikey is living his best life with his big brother Neville. The two are best buds and partners in crime—whether it’s lounging in sunny spots or chasing toys together. From shelter kitty to spoiled family member, Mikey’s glow-up is everything we dream of for our animals.

Huge thanks to Stacey for giving Mikey his happily ever after! 🐾🏡💫

"He’s doing so well! He is spunky, playful, loves to cuddle on my lap with a cozy blanket, and loves his big brother Neville." - Stacey

Super Sweet cat alert!! ♥️♥️

Baby is still looking for his forever home 💔 This 7½-year-old gentle boy came to us from an overcrowded NJ shelter, and he’s been patiently waiting for someone to see just how special he is.

At 18 lbs, Baby is working on trimming down, but all of his bloodwork came back normal. He’s shy at first, but once you give him soft words and gentle pets, his sweet side shines through. He’s learning to be confident every day—and just needs a quiet, patient home where he can truly blossom.

Could you be the one to give Baby the loving home he deserves? 🏡💙
