Hi, I'm LL COOL J, a young, male kitty in excellent health. I was rescued from a busy, city location. Am GRATEFUL to be here, especially on a really cold day like today.
I'm a verbal kitty, hence the name. Being doted on by the Volunteers. And would LOVE to be your "one and only" (do best in home without children).
Please visit, and/or share with family and friends, THANK YOU.

If it's Saturday, it's CATURDAY! A very Springlike day today.
OPEN 12-5pm
I finally found my forever home, thanks to you all for your help. My paws are crossed for Miss CHARLI (left), the last of us remaining orange kitties currently at the Shelter. We both were supposed to be adopted around the same time, but MEOW the folks interested in CHARLI bailed. That just means there will be an even better person(s) adopting her. What do you think?
Please share with family and friends.
Thank you,

We're two orange kitties waiting for a couple of visitors to take us home with them. And now the "senior residents" here at the Shelter, meow! A distinction we're not really fans of. Can you blame us?
The Volunteers assure us it's not because we're both orange kitties. We were developing a complex. Please visit, and/or share with family and friends.

Did anyone happen to see the top-notch yard clean-up 🍂🍁 that was done at the shelter, just before it snowed?!?
🤩
Delilah is always impressed by a job well-done and we'd all like to say "THANK YOU" to Miles & Margaret Melanson of Abbot Property Management, LLC., local landscapers who improve the yard every time they stop by!

"THANKFUL Thursday" the last Thursday of 2023!
MEOW, and we have a whole lot of THANKING to do.

ERNESTO here from my new forever home. My family has been loving and patient until I overcome my shyness. You can tell they have had kitties before. Rumor has it that DELILAH is going home soon. My paws are crossed for RANGER and CHARLI, and all the other kitties looking for their forever homes.

We (kitties) would like to THANK YOU ALL for your support of our Shelter; both individuals and businesses. To ALL the families who have ADOPTED us; and, last but not least, to ALL the VOLUNTEERS, FOSTER FAMILIES, and RESCUERS who tirelessly, give their time and love every day of the year, THANK YOU!

Hi, I'm NAVA SHAI (gift of beauty), a young, calico kitty. My owner sadly passed away. Time ran out to rehome me, and I was brought here. As you might have noticed from this photo I do need to lose some weight. Meow, have to get in some exercise with kitty toys.
If you're looking for a loving lap kitty, then I'm the kitty for you!
Please share and/or visit. THANK YOU!
