2 year old ANGEL loves people. He likes to lie on you and make biscuits. Good with kids and other cats. Not sure about dogs, but he is pretty easy going. Would definitely need to be a non-aggressive dog and have a proper, slow introduction. Great family cat! Apply at WhiskersPetRescue.org
ADOPT ROGER!
Roger is a bit shy at first and is not the biggest fan of being picked up, but he makes up for that in a high demand of belly rubs! He came in with his two brothers. He is very friendly and loves to cuddle. Roger is 1 1/2 yrs old. He's been dreaming and waiting to meet his Fur-Ever family. We believe with the proper slow introduction he would do great in any household.
Please apply online, and then once approved, we will contact you to set up an appointment. https://whiskerspetrescue.org/cat-adoption-application
ADOPT JERRY!
JERRY came in with his brothers TOM & ROGER (they do not have to be adopted together) when the prior owner just could no longer give them the care they needed. We do know, with the proper introduction, that he is good with other cats. Jerry is such a total sweetheart of a kitty. Jerry is 1 1/2 yrs old. He is very friendly and loves cuddles. Apply at WhiskersPetRescue.org
Adopt PELOU!
PELOU is a sweetheart 1 year old kitty who loves to be carried around and cuddled. He answers to "Papa". He makes lots of biscuits, too! He would do best as an only cat, or possibly with a non-aggressive MALE cat with slow introduction. He does not seem to like female cats at all.

Adopt PORCHY
7 1/2 yr old PORCHY came in in really rough shape. He is such a love, though. Just listen to that deep purr, he will bring you peace and tranquility just listening to him!
Porchy just needs someone to love him just as he is, and give him a peaceful, happy life, and he will give you the same. He will be a wonderful companion.
He is FIV+ so we recommend he live with other FIV+ cats or as the only cat. FIV is not contagious to humans or dogs. Being FIV positive does not mean Porchy is sick. It means he has an immunity issue, but being an indoor only cat where he isn't exposed to illness and getting routine vet care makes it likely he will live a perfectly normal life. Please read about FIV+ cats before you pass him by.

adopt TOM!!
TOM is a a sweet shy good boy. He came in with two other housemates/brothers. He loves it when you scratch his chin ! Come into meet him, he's been waiting to meet you. He has alot of love to offer. He deserves a Fur-Ever home. With the proper slow introduction we believe he would do great in any household.

Thank you to everyone that attended and supported us!!💙
CADILLAC RANCH FUNDRAISER ~ 3 Rescues!
Stevie Wonder can see just fine, but he is a kitten with pretty severe Cerebellar Hypoplasia (CH). He does use the litter box well, and he can get around at his own pace and style! Stevie is such a wonderful, sweet, playful 4 month old boy. He needs someone willing to adopt a special needs kitten and give him the loving family he deserves. He is a "wobbly cat" with poor balance and mobility. CH cats don't know they are any different or that they have "special needs". They are just as happy and playful as any other cat or kitten, they are just "floppy". CH does not get any better or any worse, it just is what it is. No small children. Other pets only if they won't play too hard, or bother or injure him. Another CH cat would probably be awesome!

Apply at whiskerpetrescue.org Stevie is in foster, so is not normally at the shelter. His foster will bring him in for appointments to meet him once someone is approved to adopt.
*Located in Southbury, CT. We do adopt out of state with application approval, but we do not ship or transport. Pick up only.

Update from Kate: "Roger (Noodles) and shy Timmy (Parmagiana) continue to take over our hearts… and our living room! Thank you Whiskers!!!💕"
These senior cats need you now!!🌟Eligible for our Senior-to-Senior Forever Foster Program where we provide their supplies and vetting for life if you live in Southbury or a nearby town! Learn more at https://whiskerspetrescue.org/SENIOR 🌟 If you are not a senior citizen or live too far away for the Sr program, you can still adopt outright for a very reduced fee.
We have a lot of senior kitties right now that need loving homes! Some have been here awhile. If you have considered adopting a senior or, if in Southbury or a nearby town, joining our senior-to-senior forever foster program, please do it NOW! These older kitties shouldn't have to spend any of their precious time in a shelter! Most of them lost their owner and the only home they ever knew. They just want someone to love them.
Even if you can't adopt a senior kitty, you can help us continue our senior program by donating to our senior medical fund at https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/donation-form/419156be-abd0-4cf7-bfd6-423486c24560 Whiskers is one of the very few shelters who will take in senior cats and find them homes. It is a very costly program, but we love it, and so do the seniors, both human and cat.
A happy update from Gizmo, our three legged kitty we called Boink, who was adopted in September. “Well good morning Whiskers people . It’s just me Gizmo, aka Boink Or Tripod. Hope you are all well. I love my new family especially my new mom. I help her take care of our 2 kids.
Talk again soon.” It’s wonderful to hear from you Gizmo! We’re so happy you’re doing so well. And thank you for taking such good care of your new family. I’m sure they appreciate it. And everyone at Whiskers is VERY happy to hear from you. Please stay in touch❤️
💙 DALE is the best kitten EVER! He is 6 months old. Super playful and affectionate. Loves other cats. He does have an issue where he will regurgitate his food if he over eats or eats too fast. He has seen specialists and they feel he is very stable on his current regime of a daily medication and keeping his special food dish that slows down his eating and is raised. Dale takes his tiny piece of a pill like a champ, very easy. He eats canned food only. The medication is not very expensive and a generic is available. REDUCED ADOPTION FEE. Dale has been in foster since birth, and just needs someone who will take him home and love him forever. We know there are special adopters out there who like to adopt special kitties that need them. You won't be sorry with Dale!! He is a love bug. Other non-aggressive cats and even dogs would be fine. Older children OK, young ones might be too rough.
Please apply online https://whiskerspetrescue.org/cat-adoption-application He is in foster, so please make an appt to meet him, so the foster can bring him in.

Milo and Jax are still available! Since we've had them in their own room instead of a cage, they have really come out of their shells. They do love to wrestle sometimes, but they're also best friends. They would be a great addition to any family! More info on Milo & Jax: https://petlover.petstablished.com/pets/share/1898928
