Bordentown City Cats

Look who's here!  Adorable, little Otis is 4 weeks old, sweet and cuddly and playful as can be. He will be looking forward to joining a loving family in a little while as soon as he is old enough to be neutered. Let us know if you're interested by contacting us at: (E) btowncitycats@gmail.com.  

Nothing breaks our hearts more than to see sweet, gentle, loving cats go without a home for the holidays, especially the many that we have in our care right now - some who were cruelly thrown out on the street and others, like poor, brokenhearted Milo here, who lost a loved one... November 28 is "Giving Tuesday" and we're launching a month-long campaign. Our goal is to make sure every one of our rescues has a home in time for the holidays. Can you spare a few dollars to help fill our Giving Grid ?  We are an all-volunteer non-profit that relies strictly on donations to help our feline friends find fur-ever homes and w e are doing all we can, but... Did you know our volunteers trudge through snow, sleet and sweltering heat 365 days a year to feed the feral cat colonies throughout Bordentown City? Did you know we make shelters for all of these colonies and for many residents who care for outdoor cats? Did you know our volunteers personally foster all

Milo came to us about two months ago after suffering a terrible tragedy.  His mother, who adored him, passed away suddenly at home, leaving him alone until friends came to his rescue.  They reached out to us knowing she loved him more than anything and would want them to make sure he was well taken care of.  This testimonial from Milo's mother's friend says it all... "I cannot tell you how much I appreciate  this group (BCC). In my time of need with the passing of one of my closest friends, they allowed me to drop off her cat who wa s now alone.    They responded so quickly and a lovely woman named Mindy, left her number. Once we were able to catch this beautiful cat (who was afraid and confused as to what had happened),  Mindy welcomed us to her house to drop off our little friend with the knowledge that he would be fostered and not put into a shelter. This alone calmed our already pained hearts. Our friend loved her cat with all of her heart and I know that t

This beautiful little girl was hanging around Thompson Street in Bordentown recently until we rescued her.   She is very friendly so we think she may have belonged to someone at one point but nobody has come forward so we are now looking for a new forever home for her! She has medium-length fur, is approximately  1-2 years old and is a unique   polydactyl, i.e. a Hemingway cat .   If you or someone you know is interested in adopting beautiful, little Thomasena, please contact us at:  (E) btowncitycats@gmail.com or (P) 609-500-0608.

Meet Cleo, part of a litter of kittens we rescued this summer from Thompson Street, aka Bordentown's famous Halloween Street...   At first we weren't sure if they were young enough to be socialized and domesticated but Cleo has come a long way and proven she wants to be a part of someone's home badly. At four months old now, she is fond of letting you pick her up and pet her.  And her beautiful, Bengal-like markings definitely make her stand out in a crowd. She is now fully vetted - spayed, vaccinated and microchipped - and ready to move into her forever home.  If you or someone you know is interested in adopting Cleo, please contact us at:  (E) btowncitycats@gmail.com or (P) 609-500-0608.

 We are so happy to report that Miss Luna Bean (formerly Foxy) is settling in nicely with her new mom Lisa!  A happy ending in time for the holidays! PREVIOUSLY... Seriously, you need to sit down for this one because Foxy is a stunner! This adorable little girl was rescued by a local Bordentown resident who contacted us for help. So, we took her in to our foster care and are in the process of getting her fully vetted.  She is about 5-6 weeks old and will be ready for a new home in a few weeks.  If you or someone you know is interested in adopting Foxy, please contact us at:  (E) btowncitycats@gmail.com or (P) 609-500-0608.

UPDATE:  Shelby was too cute to stay in our foster care for long!  We are so happy to report that he has found a fur-ever home already!! Previously... Hold onto your seat or this little ginger’s cuteness might knock you right out of it!  Meet Shelby who we recently pulled out of the Burlington County animal shelter. This cute, playful, little fella is about 4 months old and getting more friendly each day. He’s looking for a loving home. Will it be yours? Shelby is fully vetted and neutered and ready to go to a loving, fur-ever home.  If you or someone you know is interested in adopting him, please contact us at:  (E) btowncitycats@gmail.com or (P) 609-500-0608.  

UPDATE:   This adorable duo proved too hard to resist and our volunteer who was fostering them decided she just couldn't let them go.  We'll take a happy ending any which way we can and we know they're now in the very best of hands! Nickleby & Sparky PREVIOUSLY... Meet Nickleby (black & white) and Sparky (grey & white), two of the sweetest, most adorable brothers we've seen in a long time!  They are approximately 6-8 weeks old and total love bugs.  Two seconds on your lap and you will feel their purring engines at full force. Ideally, we'd love to see them get adopted together. They should be ready in the next several weeks after they are neutered and fully vaccinated and micro-chipped.  If you or someone you know is interested, please contact us at:  (E) btowncitycats@gmail.com or (P) 609-500-0608.

UPDATE:   Given how irresistible he is, we're not surprised that Turbo wasn't on the market long.  We're so happy to announce that this adorable little fella has already found his forever home!! PREVIOUSLY... Hold onto your seat because little Turbo is packing some serious cuteness... This little fella is about 4 weeks old, sweet as can be and  active.  Ideally he is looking for a long-term relationship with a friend about the same age, but ultimately he will be happy with any loving home.  If you or someone you know is interested, he will  be ready for adoption in about a month.  Please contact us at:  (E) btowncitycats@gmail.com or (P) 609-500-0608.

Now this is what we like to hear...apparently Tilly and Buffy Saint Marie (gray) are so adorable that they were adopted before we could even begin promoting them!    Both were saved thanks to the kindness of strangers - one a local resident who found Tilly in the middle of the street and the other our fine police department who rescued Buffy from an abandoned car.  They are now happy and healthy and will be going to their fur-ever home as soon as they are big enough to be spayed.

UPDATE:  We are beyond thrilled to announce that after many months Honey Bun has finally found the loving, forever home she deserves! PREVIOUSLY... Meet Honey Bun!  She and three other young cats were recently rescued from behind a local hotel by our volunteers. They have all been spayed/neutered now so this will go a long way towards reducing the area cat population in the long-term. Honey Bun has proven the most friendly and social right out of the gate. She is a sweet, friendly girl and loves people, however, she does not do well with other cats so she would do best in a household as an "only child." She is fully vetted and spayed now and is estimated to be between 1-3 years old so she has a long life ahead of her.  If you or someone you know would like to give her a fresh start in a fur-ever home, please contact us at: (E) btowncitycats@gmail.com or (P)  (609) 500-0608.

UPDATE:  After a successful GoFundMe campaign helped us get Jelly Bean the dental work he sorely needed to alleviate the pain in his mouth, he is now settling in nicely with the kind folks at Christ Church.  Thank you to everyone in the community who generously chipped in to make this all possible! PREVIOUSLY... If anyone deserves a fur-ever home, it's Jelly Bean.  He has had quite a rough time in his relatively short life.  He was adopted from a rescue group in Voorhees by a man who eventually had to move out of state so he gave him to a friend who apparently wasn't a huge cat fan.  He was eventually given to another friend who had him for awhile, but then had to deploy, and somehow poor Jelly Bean was let loose. Even when he was "on the streets" Jelly Bean was still a friendly, little love Thankfully, he found a place of kindness with the kindred souls at Christ Church in Bordentown who cared for him until we could take him in.  He has proven to be ex

UPDATE:   Adorable little Gidget was too cute to resist and quickly found a forever home!! PREVIOUSLY... Brace yourselves for Gidget because she is one adorable little lady... Gidget is about 8 weeks old, very sweet, playful, and a true lap cat. She will be ready for adoption in a couple of weeks so if you or someone you know is interested in giving her a forever home, please contact us at: (E) btowncitycats@gmail.com or (P) 609-500-0608.

Have you ever found yourself shy or timid in a situation, but deep down you knew you had a lot to offer, if only you could bust out of your shell and people could see the real you? Well, that's Peta.  Perhaps that's what has held her back from getting adopted as quickly as many of the other kittens we've had this year. She started off extremely timid, but has shown herself to be beautiful, gentle and very sweet.  While she used to hide a lot, she is increasingly becoming more visible and she gets along well with other cats.   If you're not looking for an immediate lap cat and you have a calm, quieter home, Peta would be the ideal fit!  She is still under a year old and she is so beautiful and sweet that it breaks our heart that she hasn't found a forever home yet.   Peta is spayed, vaccinated and microchipped and ready to go to a good home.  If you or someone you know would like to be the one to give it to her, please contact us at: (E) bt
