FOWAS is now CATS (& Dogs) Northeast Volunteer Team!

We have changed our name and would like to let everyone know why!

Our journey as FOWAS started with the goal of helping the dogs from Windham Animal Control and the cats from CATS Northeast find furever homes through social media advertising. However, as is what happens on life’s journeys, our mission has grown and evolved. Over the past few years, we’ve helped hundreds of dogs and cats find new loving furever homes and fostered dozens of medical recovery cases.

The rescue we help is CATS Northeast, but as there is a growing need throughout CT, we’ve started receiving calls for help from other towns in the state. Our objective of helping the town of Windham has expanded to helping animal control officers throughout the state. These animals come to us through many different paths, such as strays, owner surrenders, and pulling animals in need from different pounds in the state. We have even taken many pets that were originally adopted from different rescue organizations that have refused to take their animals back.

We are a group of volunteers who help the lives of dogs and cats in need through CATS Northeast inc.

CATS Northeast inc. is a 501 (c) 3 organization whose mission is Cats Assisted Through Spay/Neuter.

Our first goal in rescue is to provide proper medical care for the cats and dogs that come in through grants and donations. Our adoption fees cover the necessary vetting for a cat or dog to be able to start their new life on the right paw. We always spay/neuter, microchip, vaccinate, and heartworm test, as well as an FIV/FeLV test for cats and 4DX test for dogs. Many pets also receive additional vetting as needed, but that is never reflected in an adoption fee. We have funded the repair of a broken humerus on a young cat that was found hit by a car, and also funded a salivary gland surgery on a dog, among many other projects.

Our second goal is to place cats and dogs in homes that are the best match for the pet and owner. We assist beyond the adoption, serving as a resource for advice and support throughout the lives of the pets we adopt into loving families.

We’re more than just serving the Windham community. We’re dedicated to serving as many cats and dogs in Connecticut as we can. We are the CATS (& Dogs) Northeast Volunteer Team.

But don't worry our old email will still push to our new one.

Meet Jinx
Two-year-old Jinx was abandoned in an empty apartment along with two other lovely cats. He is sweet, sociable, and good with other cats. He's pretty perfect.
His favorite thing to do is flopping and rolling for petting. He is now neutered, vaccinated, microchipped & negative for FeLV/FIV

Where are our beagle fans because this handsome young man needs a home!!

Name: Flapjack
Contact: [email protected]
Adoption fee: $375
Breed: Beagle
Weight: about 25-30 #. Will update once I weigh him
S*x: male
Age: about 10-12 months

Background: Flapjack came from the Hartford pound.
Current Description: He is happy! He's got hops! He's got a working sniffer that he enjoys putting to work. He loves food!
No for real, this guy just got here and he is a lot of fun already and is super sweet and shows lots of promise with using his brain.
He's actually pretty quiet when he's with his human, he does his beagle baying if he's not with you.

Type of home they would need now: he would like a home that is prepared for a hound. Beagles make noise, beagles want to follow their nose. Please do your research on the breed if you've never had one but he will be an awesome little friend to share life and adventures with.

Special Needs: none
Energy level: medium to high so far
Favorite things to do: sniff, hang out with dogs, eat treats, get pets from people
Commands: he's wonderful at sit!
Dogs: yes!
Cats: he's cool with them 😎
Kids: will update, but seems like he will do fine.
House-trained: so far he's okay
Crate-trained: yes, he just likes to sing to you if crated so far.
Vaccinated, spayed/neutered, microchipped, tested: all vetting will be updated!

🐾 Available for adoption🐾

Name: Echo
Contact: [email protected]

Breed: Mixed Breed (assorted herding breeds)
Weight: aprox 50lbs
S*x: male neutered
Age: about 4-5 years old

Background: Echo was originally pulled from a local hoarding case where he lived in a home with many other dogs, animal control stepped in to assist the owner in finding them new homes.
He went to a local pound and was taken by someone who helped get him all of the necessary vetting that he needed and she also put in a lot of time to help him become a more confident and trusting boy. With his previous foster home he has spent time with dogs and cats and gotten to know well behaved children.
He then came to us to help him along on the next leg of his journey as he's ready to find a forever home!

Current Description: Echo is a sweet and quiet boy. Who would love a home that is not hectic, he would prefer an easy going environment. He would do best with at least one other dog in the home. He is very much a follower that wants to have strong and confident dog friends to show him the ropes.

Special Needs: just that he needs dog friends in his new home!
Energy level: medium
Favorite things to do: hang out and play with with his dog friends, follow around his human to see what we're doing next.
Dogs: yes absolutely!
Cats: yes
Kids: calm children
House-trained: yes
Crate-trained: yes
Vaccinated, spayed/neutered, microchipped, tested: yes

🐾Available for Adoption 🐾

Meet our new available puppy!
Are you looking for a new addition to the family? Do you have friends or family you could share with that may be looking for a new addition to their family? Please share so he can find the best fit possible!
We have dubbed him Porkchop and his foster family is also calling him Pugsley.
Porkchop is a 4 month old puggle who is very much a puppy.
He is ready for a home that is ready for puppy energy! He loves kids, dogs and cats - he is fostered with all of the above. He does want to play with the dogs and cats so other animals in a prospective home should be ready to play! He does have 1 cherry eye, this can be corrected.

This adorable senior kitty is Chloe!
Chloe lost her home in an eviction. She's a sweet friendly plump gal who loves people but not other animals. She would love to be the queen of your home and soak up all your love. Chloe is spayed and current on vaccines. There is no adoption fee, we just want her to have a home, although donations are always appreciated. She would be a perfect senior for a senior!

Strudel was a street kitty when we got her. She's a very friendly young adult and always looking for attention. She can hold her own around other cats and doesn't seem too bothered by them but it's really people she craves. We did all her vet care (spay, vaccines, microchip, FeLV/FIV testing) and she's ready for a new home! Email [email protected]
