UPDATE:  We are happy to report that Sampson, Jasper and Jazzy have now all found loving, forever homes!  Hip, hip, hooray!! Previously... Poor little Sampson was "dumped" off at one of our feral colonies (along with his brother Jasper and sister Jazzy who have already found forever homes) and left to fend for himself by people who are clearly lacking in the compassion department. Sampson Sampson Sampson (right) with his sister Jazzy who has been adopted Fortunately, one of our volunteers who takes care of the colony found them and they were brought into our foster care.  They were a little scared at first but very friendly, which means they probably lived with people until they started to get a little bigger and then they decided to get rid of them.  It angers and dismays us, but it's our job to find them new homes so will you be the one to help give them a happy ending? He is about seven months old now and has proven himself to be a little ...

UPDATE:  Dexter proved too cute to stay on the market for long.  In fact, he never even left our foster's home.  In their words: "He saved me more than I saved him."  A happy ending for all! PREVIOUSLY... We originally thought Dexter...Dex for short...was a lost cat when we rescued him from West Street recently.  But after some digging around, we realized he's right where he belongs...in our care until we can find him a loving fur-ever home. Here he was on that first day we found him, frightened but clearly friendly... He's come a long way in such a short time under our foster's care.  He's doing great and has proven to be very loving and a real cuddler, as well as a playful little fella, as evidenced here...    He's still a bit timid around strangers, but that's understandable and he's making progress every day. He is approx 6 months old and has just been neutered and vaccinated and is ready to go to a loving home.  I...

UPDATE:  We are thrilled to report that all five from this litter have now found a fur-ever home!! PREVIOUSLY... Just try and resist this cuteness!  These three black & white tuxedo brothers were rescued from down by the river in Bordentown in late June, along with their two sisters who have already been adopted.  We believe they were born the first week of June. They are as cute as can be and love to play with each other.  We are in the process of getting them neutered and vaccinated and they will be ready for adoption momentarily.  If you or someone you know is interested in adoption, please contact us at:  (E) btowncitycats@gmail.com or (P) 609-324-3896 .

UPDATE:  Little Philly has found a forever home and we couldn't be happier for this adorable boy! PREVIOUSLY... Little Philly was recently found in Bordentown and is believed to be about 12 weeks old.  He appears to be  well taken care of and is very friendly.  Isn't he just adorable? He should be ready for adoption very soon.  If you or someone you know is interested in giving him a fur-ever home, please contact us at:  (E) btowncitycats@gmail.com or (P) 609-324-3896.

UPDATE:  We're happy to report that this sweet, little fella has found a forever home quickly!! PREVIOUSLY... Tucker just came to us recently when an animal control officer rescued him up after he was dropped by a hawk! Thankfully he was fine...and it turns out he’s absolutely adorable, friendly, playful and loving. He is approximately 10 weeks old and we hope to get him to the   vet this week to be neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. If you or someone you know is interested in giving him a fur-ever home, please contact us at: (E) btowncitycats@gmail.com or (P) 609-324-3896.

UPDATE:   We're happy to report that adorable, little Toby has found a forever home! Toby is about 7 weeks old and just a little love. He is sweet and friendly as can be and gets along well   with other cats. He will be neutered, vaccinated and microchipped in just a few weeks when he’s old enough. If you or someone you know is interested in giving him a loving, forever home, please contact us at: (E) btowncitycats@gmail.com or (P) 609-324-3896.

Summer, a beautiful female calico with unique markings, is desperately in need of a new home.  Her previous owner was an elderly woman who was forced to surrender her because she had to move in with family and could not take any pets with her.  It broke her heart to give her up, but we're hoping we can find Summer a new family who will continue to give her the love she deserves. Summer is 9 years old , spayed, and used to living in a calm home without children, so a quiet home with 1-2 adults would probably suit her best.  She  is an indoor cat and  likes when her head is petted, eats only dry food, and loves cat snacks.  She also loves to play with you with cat toys.  What's not to love about Summer?  If you or someone you know is interested in giving her a happy ending, please contact us at:  (E) btowncitycats@gmail.com or (P) 609-324-3896.

UPDATE:   These two were far too cute to go without a forever home for long!  We're happy to report they have both found happy endings. PREVIOUSLY... Juju and Robbie are two adorable brother-sister kittens who we recently rescued.   Juju has gorgeous, medium length fur and is sweet and playful.  Robbie, her brother, is equally charming, sweet and playful. Juju Robbie Both are  eight weeks old, fixed, vaccinated and microchipped. If you or someone you know is interested in adopting either, please contact us at: (E) btowncitycats@gmail.com or (P) 609-324-3896.

UPDATE:   We are happy to report that Glinda and Elfie have found the forever homes they deserve!! PREVIOUSLY... Glinda and Elfie are two sisters who came to us from a family who tried to rescue too many cats and got a little in over their heads.  So we are helping to find them new homes so they can all get the individual love and attention they deserve. Glinda is the orange tabby and Elfie is the muted tortie.  Glinda Elfie Both are females who will be turning two in June so they have a long life ahead of them.  They are friendly, but still a tad shy from their previous situation, although they are gradually coming out of their shell a little more each day.  They will do great once they find a stable loving environment.   They're mother is a Siamese who is also available for adoption.  Pictures to come of her.  If you or someone you know is interested in adopting Glinda or Elfie, please contact us at: (E) btowncity...

UPDATE:   We are happy to report that Hobar has found a loving home with someone who will appreciate his loving nature! PREVIOUSLY... Hobar was found wandering around the HOB Tavern (hence his name) just looking for someone to love him.  He is as friendly as can be with his quirky markings and curly-Q tail and he quickly endeared himself to all the bar patrons.  Unfortunately, one day he was seen with an injured ear so we rescued him, brought him to the vet to be vaccinated and his ear has healed nicely. He is on the smaller side and is believed to be a very young adult.  Now all he'd like is a nice place to call his own.  Will you be the one to give it to him?  If so, please contact us at: (E) btowncitycats@gmail.com or (P) 609-324-3896.

Chelsea and Cassie are two adorable little girls, who deserve a loving, forever home.  They are approximately 5 months old now and  were found in the same yard so they may very well be siblings although we're not completely sure. Chelsea (all black) is quite friendly and loves to be petted.  Chelsea Cassie (black & white) is still a little shy, but coming around and sweet as can be. Check out her gorgeous markings...

We desperately need your help to find new homes for these five kitties whose owners were well-intentioned but have gotten in over their heads and can no longer care for all of them. Lillie is the mother and she is part Siamese.  The youngsters, all her children, were born in June 2014. The  two males have been neutered,  but the three females need to be spayed, which we will take care of before adopting out to anyone.  All have been kept indoors and are used to dogs and other cats. Lillie Glinda Elphie Fred George If you or anyone you know is interested in giving any of them a loving, permanent home, please contact us at:  btowncitycats@gmail.com.
