ADOPTING A KITTEN OR TWO
Video from This One Wild Life, February 2012
We've just adopted two of the sweetest, orange tabby kittens from Animalkind, Inc. in Hudson, NY. It's a perfect match. The bonded brothers required placement together and we were interested in adopting a pair.

ANIMALKIND'S ADOPTABLE ANIMALS

Adoptable Cats

ISABELLA:  Isabella is a very pretty long-haired female, a little over a year old. She has a bit of cat-itude, and would probably prefer life as an only cat (or at least a home where she's the only female cat).

SAGITTARIUS:  Sagittarius lost his home when his owner died. He and his housemate Diesel are both awaiting adoption at Animalkind. We are not sure what occurred in his former home, but Sagittarius' special need is placement in a home with little exposure to men. He is a great cat, but has a deep distrust of men. He'll be happiest in an environment where he won't have to interact with men very much.

DIESEL:  Diesel's owner died, and he and his housemate Saggitarius are now at Animalkind awaiting a new chance and a permanent home. Diesel is a Russian Blue, about 2 years old. He gets along well with other cats, and is friendly and affectionate. 

BG:  This affectionate guy was surrendered when his owners could no longer care for him. He's a little over a year old, and is a very sweet, mellow guy. BG gets along just fine with other cats.

GRYCO:  Gryco found his way into the shelter when a good Samaritan rescued him after he was attacked by an animal. After quarantine (to ensure he did not contract rabies), he is 100% healthy and ready for his forever home. Gryco is a mild-mannered, friendly cat who gets along with other cats.

IZZY BIZ:  She lost her home when her owner died. She is a wonderful cat, very loving and affectionate, about 5 years old. She gets along well with other cats. 

LUCILLE: Lucille is about a year old. She is an energetic, playful girl who has excellent mousing instincts. Lucille used to live with other cats and would enjoy doing so again. She has the most beautiful soulful eyes.

DUSTIN: Dustin is a 1 year-old boy. He's a long-haired cat who gets along with other cats. He's such a love-bug that he adores having his head and chin rubbed. Big purrs! 

GOLDIE: This orange and white Tabby is a stunning medium long-haired boy.  He is quiet, but playful, and gets along with other cats.

GARRY: This gorgeous long-hair guy is part Snowshoe Siamese and has blue eyes.  He is outgoing and affectionate, and enjoys the company of other cats. 

PRUDENCE: My name is Prudence, and I'm a 10-years-young guy! I'm a big buff orange and white boy, and that just means there is more of me to love. I get so excited when my human friends come by to visit that I stand up on my hind legs and wave my paws to get their attention. I especially love to show off my tummy. My human friends say I have a very cute tummy! I would love the chance to be a furry companion. Please consider helping me find a forever home. Thank you! 

LEO: This pretty guy was born approximately mid-October 2012 and was rescued after an accident. He had some broken bones, but is healing nicely now. He will be ready for adoption soon. If you are interested in adopting him, please submit an Adoption Application.

SAGE: Sage is a 3 year-old beauty (who's "all ears"!). She's a petite little thing who was found starving and sick, and rescued off the streets. She is very sweet and loving, and more than ready for a permanent home.  She enjoys the company of other cats.

SUGAR: This pretty girl is a Siamese mix. She is about 5 years old. She loves having her head rubbed, and would enjoy a life with lots of laps that want attention and affection. 

PRESTON: Don't let the name fool you, Preston is a one year old Russian Blue girl. She was rescued from an abusive home, and is making a great recovery. She is very gentle and kind, and adores having her tummy rubbed. 

TIMMY: Two- to three-year young male lover boy! (He was rescued with 11 others!) Timmy is a rambunctious boy, about three years old. He has a lot of energy and loves to play with adults and children. Timmy would greatly prefer a home where he is the only cat. 

THOMAS: Thomas is a handsome, brawny, Lynx-looking guy. He was rescued as a stray. He has spent his life as a cat that comes in and out, and would prefer a home where he can continue to do so. Thomas is about 2 yeas old. 

BERNIE: Bernie lost his home because his owners are moving in with their parents who are severely allergic to cats. Bernie's a little over 4 years old. Although he is used to living with other cats, he is not as keen about dogs. He's lost sight in one eye, but it doesn't hinder him in any way. Bernie's a big lap cat in search of a new lap. 

ANGEL: She truly is an angel. After being badly injured, she has recovered nicely. Such a lovely girl who is now ready for her forever home! 

JACKSON: Jackson is a petite medium long-haired orange boy, almost a year old. He was rescued from a hoarder. Since he has lived with other cats and dogs, he seems to get along fine with them. He's a little fearful right now, having lost the only home he's ever known, but a patient and caring home would be rewarded with a loving cat. 

ABIGAIL:  Very sweet, low energy 4 year-old gal. She came from a multiple cat household, but might also enjoy being an only cat. She likes to hang out on laps.  Her former family split, and she and three others on this site were left without homes.

BUFF:  This is a big boy who is very sweet and docile. He has lived with other cats and gets along with them. His former family split, and he and three others on this site were left without homes. Buff would love a quiet, low energy home.

 
KITTY:  Kitty is about 4 years old. He came from a multi-cat household, and likes the company of other cats. He's a pretty outgoing boy who enjoys attention and love from people. He likes to play, but also likes to curl up in a lap. 

RUSTY:  This noble guy was rescued as an injured stray. His injury is healing well, and he should be ready for adoption soon. He is about 5 years old. He loves attention from people, and gets along with other cats.

LANA:  This feisty, playful 4 year-old girl was rescued as a stray. She likes other cats, but not dogs, and is affectionate on her own terms (she is not much of a lap cat). She would be an excellent mouser.

RAIN: Rain is close to a year old. She is a sweet, outgoing girl who has has experience living with children, other cats, and dogs. She is very gentle and loves attention.

CLINTON: This sweet guy is about two years old. He's friendly and playful, and gets along with cats and dogs.

NIXON: This guy is part Siamese and is about 2 years old. He has lived with other cats and dogs, and was rescued from a hoarder. He's a bit shy, but with the right home, he will flourish.

FLUFFY TWO:  Fluffy's owner died, and with no next of kin, the poor kitty ended up with Animalkind.  He's a very sweet cat who gets along with other cats. If think you might like this handsome boy in your home come by and meet him.  You can save time by bringing a completed Adoption Application.

BOOTS: Boots lost his home when his owner developed allergies. He's a little over 2 years old, and is an easy-going, well-adjusted guy. He's very friendly and playful, and loves attention. He'll fit well in to a home with other cats.

 
HERMIONE:  Hermione was rescued from a large colony of cats, where she was dumped (or found on her own when lost). She was not a feral and was someone's pet as she is such a friendly Tortoiseshell girl. She is close to 2 years old and would love to find herself on your lap. 

FLUFFY:  We are not sure why this handsome polydactyl (having extra toes) boy is named "Fluffy", since he is a shorthair. He's got an extra two thumbs on each of his front paws. He's about 4 years old and was found as a stray. Fluffy's very friendly and gets along with other cats. 

 
 
GIN: This little girl is a little over one year old. She's a spunky, sweet, playful young lady. She loves to be rubbed and held, and purrs the second you pet her. Gin is outgoing, curious, and ready for adoption into a loving home. 

THE DUDE: The Dude has been dealt a tough hand in life. His former owners declawed *all four* of his paws. Now that he has no way to defend himself, "Dude" can be defensive around other pets, which is why he was brought to Animalkind. He's an affectionate quiet guy, who would love a nice home with no little kids and a sedate energy level. 

THREE MUSKATEERS: These sweet kitties are homeless and need a place to go ASAP!  Please contact us and ask for the 3 Musketeers. They are beautiful longhairs. 

LOLA: Lola is about 2 years old. She is smart, curious and playful. Lola can be very loving, as long as it's on her terms. She will thrive in a patient, low energy home without lots of stress.

PRECIOUS
PRECIOUS: Long-hair female Tuxedo, about 6 years young. This sweet and big gentle cat was surrendered  (one of nine) when her owner became ill and lost her home to foreclosure as a result of medical expenses. Precious hopes to find a home as loving as her old one. 

MISS MEOW: This gentle cat was found severely injured, probably from a run-in with a car. She is recovering well from her injuries, and should be available for adoption very soon.  She is about 3 years old, and a very friendly cat. 

MARIO: Mario is a stunning Bombay male with striking yellow-green eyes. He is super friendly to people, but would prefer to be an only cat in the home. He's very playful and has excellent hunting skills. If you want a fun pet, Mario's your guy. He's a little over a year old.  

LENNY: Lenny is a big love of a lap cat. He is going on 3 years old, and he's a very mellow, sweet guy.  He used to live with other cats, and gets along well with them.

JADEN: This sweet guy lost his home when his owner was put into longterm care. He's about 7 years old, and a bit traumatized by losing his home. He's good with other cats, and will flourish once he's in a new home.  See Jaden's video here http://youtu.be/ssffyQLe8lU

PIPPI: Pippi is a Dilute Calico lady, nearly 5 years old. She is a bit shy at busy Animalkind, but likes the company of other cats.

MECHA: Mecha is about 4 years old, and is a one-eyed beauty. She gets around just fine with her single eye.  She is a sweet girl searching for a new home.

TINY: Tiny is an 8 year-old female. She is blind, but once familiar with her surroundings, she has no problem. She is a loving girl who enjoys being a lap cat. She gets along with other cats. Tiny is a staff favorite, as she is big on personality.

ISABEL: This gentle and pretty girl was abandoned in her home when her owner moved. She was rescued, along with her housemate, Cettina (recently adopted). Isabel is around 2 years old, and is a loving girl.

STANLEY: This handsome guy has a bobbed tail, either by accident or amputation, we don't know. But, we love this half-tailed cat who will want to sleep in your lap all day.  (Oh, and he loves his treats!)

 
CODY: Cody is a neutered male, about 3 years young, who has been in foster care since the fire at Animalkind's shelter a few months ago. He was named "Peanuts" by the Animalkind staff, but as you can see by the photos, he is a strapping young man who does not live up to that name, so his foster mom gave him a new one. He's a handsome fellow, sporting abstract sable brown stripes on his front legs, with a black raccoon striped tail and brilliant green eyes.  He gets along famously with other cats, but has, up until recently, been timid with humans. His foster mom found that with time and patience, he has come out of his shell and runs to greet her, loves to be petted, and is a great soccer player. He would probably appreciate an indoor/outdoor situation (as it looks like he'll be a good hunter) with humans who appreciate his introversion and are willing to establish a trusting relationship with him on his own time line.  Please feel free to contact his foster mom at Susan213@fairpoint.net for more information on Cody.  He is so ready to find a place to call home.  

CLOE & KRISTIAN: Cloe is a 1-2 year-old female Dilute Calico (the sister of Kristian, reportedly a male, the black kitty on the right). They are very fond of each other and both are very playful.
 

KALI: A sassy and playful Calico female, about 3-4 years old. She's confident of herself and independent of other cats.  She surely would love to be on your lap!  

MOUSY:  Male sweety- Mousy is a real lover boy!!!!

SAPPHIRE: Sapphire was rescued from a Hudson, NY, waterfront feral cat colony. It's clear she's led quite a life - if only she could talk and tell us about it!  Unlike a feral, she is very sweet and friendly. It's time for Sapphire to relax and have a loving home where she doesn't have to compete with wildlife and dozens of other cats for survival. Sapphire is really mellow and loves attention. 

FIRECRACKER: This young mom (formerly known as "Emma") was rescued from Catskill, NY, along with her babies, Sparkle and Venus.  She has done her job, and now that she will no longer make any more kittens, she is ready for a permanent home. She's very sweet and friendly. 

CHEDDAR: Cheddar was born approximately mid-February and is a very playful little boy. He would love to be out running and playing in a home with other cats. 

PAXTON:  A beautiful silky medium long-hair black male,about 1-2 years old just in from foster care.  He cannot wait for a second chance for a nice home.

MARIPOSA:  With many colors of the butterfly, Mariposa is a Calico kittie about 1-2 years old.  Very sweet and friendly, and looking forward to meeting you.

PRINCE:  Newly-arrived medium long-hair orange male.  He loves his head and neck to be petted!!

Adoptable Kittens

JOAN'S KITTENS:   A litter of kittens (2 Tuxedo's, 2 silky blacks, and a Tiger Tabby) was reportedly found in an alley in Hudson.  All kittens are *very* friendly and are vetted as of now.  So....they are ready to conquer your heart and home!  Be amoung the first you get your Adoption Application in to Animalkind ! 

GREENVILLE KITTENS: These four adorable siblings are from a property in Greenville, NY, with far too many animals. Luckily, their mother was brought to Animalkind us to have her kittens at Animalkind's facility. Harrison is a fuzzy ball of fun, who enjoys playing with his siblings. Wanda is an energetic female short-hair sweetie. Noreen and Alaina are playful, curious kittens who enjoy exploring. They are now in foster care and will be available for adoption in early June. Get your Adoption Application in soon!

APRIL KITTENS: All of these sweeties were born in approximately mid-April and will be ready for their permanent homes in early June. Ziva is a little Calico/Tortoiseshell spitfire! She's a little ball of nonstop energy. (This is the best picture we could get because she doesn't sit still!).  Gibbs is a gray and white Tuxedo male. He is playful, curious, and likes being with other animals. Tony is a ball of energy, and enjoys playing with toys, other animals and people!. Tony and his siblings will be available for adoption in June. Get your Adoption Application in soon!

ROYAL KITTENS: These kittens were born approximately late March. Windsor and Prince Henry (of course) are males. The brothers enjoy playing with each other and are affectionate with people. Royal is black with a white star on his chest and a white tummy. He is eager to start his life with a loving household. All three are ready for adoption now. Get your Adoption Application in soon! 

MIGHTY JOE:  I think they named me "Mighty Joe" because I am mighty cute. When I was about 20 days old, I was found in someone's backyard all by myself. I am healthy and affectionate, and will be ready for adoption mid May. Because I was found alone and have since bonded with my fellow foster home kittens, I will need to go to a home with another cat or kitten for companionship. 

BRUCE and ROYCE: These young Tabby Kittens Brothers are both males. They appear to have been born in early December, 2012 (still kittens!) and were found on April 1, 2013 huddled together on the street where they had clearly just been abandoned. Their photos were taken in their foster home the next day and so was their video: http://youtu.be/ZX6aDyMXzaM. If you suspect these playful, affectionate, and beautiful brothers might be just what your family needs, call their foster mom Julia at 518-249-4588 for more information. 

MARBLE and REX: These two cuties were born in late March and, although they were abandoned, they are already extremely affectionate and hoping for a new beginning in a good home. Please consider opening your heart to these sweet little boys and all the fun and joy they will bring. They will be ready for adoption by the end of May. Contact Animalkind and be first in line! 

DAISY: Daisy was born early October 2012 and was rescued from Freehold NY. She is as cute as she is playful. She wants a loving home!

MARILYN:  This tiny baby girl's photo and video were taken on July 23rd.  She came to us a stray at such an early age that she is unbelievably brave and affectionate.  Since, as you can see, little Marilyn has been raised by a pack of dogs and a multitude of cats. she is growing into a lovely, brave, and super affectionate Tuxedo girl!  If you're interested in being her human please call her foster mom Julia at 646-429-8882.  Julia's fosters require a home visit, vet reference, and an adoption fee (which helps to offset the feeding and medical care of her many four footed charges), as well as the perfect match between adopter and adopted.
Here is video of Marilyn and the hounds. 

  Declawed Cats

THE DUDE: The Dude has been dealt a tough hand in life. His former owners declawed *all four* of his paws. Now that he has no way to defend himself, "Dude" can be defensive around other pets, which is why he was brought to Animalkind. He's an affectionate quiet guy, who would love a nice home with no little kids and a sedate energy level.  

  Feral Cats

JOSH:  Josh is a feral looking for a welcoming outdoor home where he can mouse. He would love to reside in a barn or on a farm, or a rural home that would like to keep the outdoor vermin in check. He's about a year old, and gets along with other cats. He is fearful of - but not aggressive towards - people. 

 
HUNTRESS: Semi-feral, this little girl Tiger loves to hunt in the grass. She's a bit skittish, until petted sufficiently. Please mention when inquiring that Huntress is one of the "Albany kittens".

 
SPOT:  Feral...she spent her early life with little interaction with humans. She would love to have a responsible barn situation where she could spend the rest of her life.

Adoptable Dogs

BERTHA: Miniature poodle Bertha, female. She is very smart and loving! She is great with kids, cats and other dogs. 

Special Needs

SAGITTARIUS:  Sagittarius lost his home when his owner died. He and his housemate Diesel are both awaiting adoption at Animalkind. We are not sure what occurred in his former home, but Sagittarius' special need is placement in a home with little exposure to men. He is a great cat, but has a deep distrust of men. He'll be happiest in an environment where he won't have to interact with men very much.

MOJO:  This stunningly handsome Maine Coon is a little over a year old. He is genetically predisposed to urinary crystals, so he's had urethral surgery to prevent future issues. Mojo must be fed a specific diet of prescription urinary tract food. He will live a long, happy life provided he is kept to this diet. He should go to an understanding and compassionate home prepared to meet this special need, which is not all that difficult. 

TINY: Tiny is an 8 year-old female. She is blind, but once familiar with her surroundings, she has no problem. She is a loving girl who enjoys being a lap cat. She gets along with other cats. Tiny is a staff favorite, as she is big on personality.

BUBBY (aka  MAGOO): The World's Best Blind Poodle --10 lb, 4-6 year old Bubby, now known as Magoo, was found on the streets of NYC in March of 2013. Here is his most recent video:  http://youtu.be/XoxdUojdFa4. This additional video was taken of him on his 7th day in foster care:  http://youtu.be/bJzTo8VPeF8. Here is another clip of Bubby with one of his squeaky toys:  http://youtu.be/xwwoxhNqUAI . Within several weeks of joining his foster family, Bubby had learned to get on and off of the family bed, use the dog door and negotiate up and down the three steps of the deck.  If watching this charming, sweet boy has him working his way into your heart, please call Julia at 518-249-4588 to see if you might be his forever human or humans.  (Please do not contact Animalkind about this pet.)  Julia's canine adoptions require a home visit, vet reference, a $250 adoption fee to help offset the cost of caring for her many fosters, as well as the perfect match between two and four footed. 

JEFFEY: Recently diagnosed with Diabetes, the vet says he requires prescription food and we are advised diabetes IS manageable, even possibly treatable. He is a 6 year old black and white long haired male cat. VERY friendly, and currently gets along with his best friend (a dog). He takes a little time to warm up to other cats (which is not unusual). Jeffey is a big boy, weighs 20 lbs (his body structure is quite large, making him a “big boy”) He is excellent with children. His foster mom is looking for a home for him, with someone that can afford his needs. Please contact Robin at 518 986 4756 and leave a message. We will request references, just to make sure he will be going to good home, as he is our “baby.”

Adoptables from Others

PLEASE DO NOT CONTACT ANIMALKIND ABOUT THE ANIMALS BELOW; THEY ARE NOT AT ANIMALKIND. THE CONTACT INFORMATION FOR THESE ANIMALS IS PROVIDED BELOW EACH PHOTO.

MACHITO the MAGNIFICANT: Young Tuxedo male who will make a superior addition to any home.  I live with a lot of cats and this one year-old boy knocked my socks of with his bravery, affection, and joyous, outgoing, nature.  He was scheduled to be euthanized at the overflowing NYC shelter Thanksgiving week. I had no idea I was saving such a gem! If after, seeing his video, you are interested in becoming his family, please call Machito's foster mom Julia at 518-249-4588. (Please do not contact Animalkind about this pet.) Julia's adoptions require a home visit, vet reference, and adoption fee to help offset the cost of caring for her many fosters, as well as the perfect match between two and four footed.
See Machito the Magnificent's video of 11/21/12: http://youtu.be/dNDeOnX1JpY

BARKLEY: Sweet Barkley was to be euthanized December 24th at 7 a.m. He had bald patches all over his body. Instead, he was brought to my veterinarian husband's office where blood tests determined how to get his beautiful silky coat back. The couple who found Barkley on the streets of New York City described him as a gentle and perfectly-behaved dog. They did not exaggerate! Barkley is a gentle, loving and beautiful dog. He is a 68-pound, 6-8 year old joy to his foster family and to the wonderfully lucky people or person who adopts him. He is wonderful with a houseful of cats and other dogs and is gentle with children and strangers. Cats that don't like dogs love Barkley. Blood tests determined that his hair loss was caused by a treatable pituitary imbalance called "Cushings Disease", for which he will take medication for the rest of his life.

Barkley's most recent video was taken in mid-May
 http://youtu.be/43KDZwCxh2Q

This one was shot the last week of February, after his first bath:

Julia's canine adoptions require a home visit, vet reference, a $250 adoption fee to help offset the cost of caring for her many fosters, as well as the perfect match between two and four footed.  

JAGGER: Jagger (as in Mick) is a magnificent 16 lb, 7-year old who suffered the shock of having been given up the first week of April by the person who had cared for him as an only cat since kittenhood. Learn more about this gentle, and no longer very sad fellow, by watching his videos. http://youtu.be/zbFhRSbUS-8 If you think he might be meant to join your family, please call his foster mom Julia for more information at 646-429-8882.

PHOEBE: Young female Calico.  Phoebe is an amazing 1-2 year old girl. She was found on the street in Manhattan by a good samaritan, taken to the vet clinic where my husband practices, vetted, put in a carrier and arrived at our home to be greeted with by 60 similarly rescued cats and 17 escued dogs. Yet, this extraordinarily affectionate and fearless girl didn't miss a beat!  If after, seeing her videos, you are interested in possibly having the Phenomenal Pheobe join your family, please call her foster mom Julia at 518-249-4588. (Please do not contact Animalkind about this pet.)

KAISER:  Kaiser is a Cairn Terrier (like Toto in "Wizard of Oz"). He will be 13 on Nov 4. Yes, he is older, has trouble getting up on the couch & doesn't see as well, but that is it!  He eats well & goes to the bathroom well, loves to ride in the car, go for a walk & play!!  (He does sleep more now than he used to.). He is accustomed to cats and other dogs (only once did a female boxer put him in his place, but this boxer does that with other dogs too!)  A drawback with Kaiser is little kids, that's why he was a rescue dog to me.  He grew up with my friend's granddaughter and there were NO problems, we just watched them carefully. My present landlady says "no" to dogs so I must fine him a home.  Please contact Tracie at 845-750-1402 or email dicktracie27@gmail.com for more information.  (Please do not contact Animalkind). 

SANDY: Small adult male Shih Tzu. (Please do not contact Animalkind about this pet; his contact information is at the at the end of his description.) Sandy was found as a stray and was on the list of those to be killed at an NYC shelter in April. He weighs 12-13 pounds and is between 7-9 years of age. Here is a video of Sandy taken after he had been in foster care for a week: http://youtu.be/rlVlnWqN4YQ.

Sandy is over the kennel cough he picked up at the shelter. He's had his teeth cleaned, has been neutered and is patiently awaiting a new home where he is not surrounded by sooo many other critters. Sandy loves car rides, walks and runs, but hates the groomers. If, after having watched his two videos, you are interested in learning more about possibly becoming his human, please call his foster mom Julia at 518-249-4588.  Julia's canine adoptions require a home visit, vet reference, a $250 adoption fee to help offset the cost of caring for her many fosters, as well as the perfect match between two and four footed. Here is Sandy's main video: http://youtu.be/sYnWFhDMhUQ. 

LOLA and LOUIE: Young medium-size brother and sister Tabbies. They were born in April 2012,spayed and neutered and given all shots within 9 years of age. They truly adore each other. They are by the most adoring cats their foster mom has ever met and constantly delight her day with sweet gestures.  Never mean, they sometimes shout at each other, but this is all part of their play. When their human is away, they have each other and when their human is home, they take turns in keeping her company, sitting on her foot and jumping on her lap. They are playful and trusting with children and allow their nails to be cut with very little. They have not been around other cats or dogs, so it is not sure what their initial reactions might be.  Lola is shy at first, but is very sweet and hugely affectionate when she gets to know you.  She loves to cuddle.  Louie is very outgoing and loving, ans walks up to everyone.  He has a strong personality and loves to snuggle against you, sit at your feet and talk to you!

ROSIE: Small female adult Smooth-Coated Fox Terrer Mix.  Rosie is a sweet 6 yr old, 15-16lb, mixed breed girl looking for a new forever home. We don't know anything about her start in life but at approximately two years of age, she was adopted out of a shelter by a loving couple. Two years later, a human baby joined the family. SAdly, the child was dignosed with autism resulting in Rosie once again in search of new parents to love and care for her.  Her family is now unable to give her the attention and exercise she needs.
 
Her mom writes of her:
 
"Rosie is a sweet, smart dog.  She loves to be on your lap and sleep on your legs if you are lying on the couch.  She is very well house trained -- currently she gets 4 walks a day.  She knows how to sit, lie down, shake, roll over, and jump through a hoop. Like all dogs, she enjoys attention, affection and play.  She will play fetch with stuffed toys. She has a beautiful face and markings, and often gets admired as we walk her down the street. Her eyes are lovely.She is ok with other dogs, as long as the humans oversaw feeding time and managed toys, etc. She does well at doggie day care.  We have taken Rosie with us while visiting friends and family with their own dogs and she is fine. We think she might do very well in a house with another dog for company, though she can sometimes be intimidated by big dogs.  She should not go to a house with cats or small children because she occasionally barks or growls at young children, and really barks at the few cats she has met. Rosie needs enough exercise. In the city, for example, she would need to be taken on nice long walks or to the dog run in the morning and evening, and she would do best in an apartment without a lot of foot traffic outside since she has occasional bouts of guard barking. She would also thrive at a house in the suburbs or country with a fenced-in yard."
 
This video of Rosie was taken 3/10/13:  http://youtu.be/SiP4A5YvY3I. Her humans took these videos on 3/12: Rosie licks - http://youtu.be/d2asqPQ49GE.

OGDEN:  Adult male medium-size Tuxedo. Please forgive Ogden for looking a little put off in his photo. This affectionate 5 year-old has not been having a very good go of things. His humans abandoned him in a hallway in his carrier and then he had to get used to living in foster care with way too many other animals for his taste. Ogden would love to be an only adored cat, or at least only have to peaceably exist with just one or two others!  He looks much happier in his video getting some one on one human attention:

These two are about seven months old, recently fixed and tested, all ready to go. For more information on either or both, please email jessicaquinn@optimum.net 

BRUCE and ROYCE: These young Tabby Kittens Brothers are both males. They appear to have been born in early December, 2012 (still kittens!) and were found on April 1, 2013 huddled together on the street where they had clearly just been abandoned. Their photos were taken in their foster home the next day and so was their video: http://youtu.be/ZX6aDyMXzaM.

I will pay for the third puppy vet visit. Please contact: maureen.chirun@gmail.com for more information on this sweet little girl.  

SWEET MELISSA and PEANUT:  When 2 year-old Peanut and 3 year-old Melissa are not eating, playing, or snuggling with me, they can usually be found wrapped around each other in their favorite chair. http://youtu.be/qkLVuWu9H30. This wouldn't be so remarkable if they were mother and daughter, but these lovely ladies only met in foster care 4 months ago!  If you are an experienced cat person, you know that this kind of closeness is quite common among males but an extremely rare occurrence among females.  Peanut is the petite tuxedo/calico and came from a home with 26 felines in need of surrender.  Sweet Melissa  entered foster care along with another cat at the suggestion of her then human's social worker. Here is a video of Melissa, before she found Peanut:  http://youtu.be/Il8WO_-82TQ.

Flower has been in foster care  for awhile now and she is still leery of her foster mom.

MARGIE: Young female, Tuxedo. Little Margie was rescued from certain death this past Saturday July 21st.  She was noticed in the Bronx unable to give birth to a stillborn kitten. Margie is only a baby herself and is going to be a very small cat when she finishes growing. After her emergency c-section, there were two tiny kittens left alive but Margie had not a drop of milk for them. We took in a nursing mom mother cat and her litter from a kill shelter in NYC to take over Margie's maternal duties. Now this little girl needs a home. She is sweet, lovely, diminutive in stature, and quite a trooper considering her ordeal. To learn more about this ex teen mom, please call her foster mom Julia at 646-429-8882. Julia's fosters require a home visit, vet reference, and an adoption fee (which helps to offset the feeding and medical care of her many four footed charges), as well as the perfect match between adopter and adopted. Here is Margie's video. 

ROSEY:   Buff orange Siamese mix.  Rosey is about a year old and very shy when she first meets you.  However, after a few days she gets comfortable. She would best find a place in a home where kind people wouldn't mind helping her come out of her shell and seeing her progress.  She loves to have her belly scratched and rolls around, evidencing a lot of potential for becoming a loving pet.  For more information on this beautiful cat, please contact her foster mom Jessica at jessicaquinn@optimum.net

  
SMOKEY:  Adult male, Domestic Shorthair, Gray and White.  Handsome Smokey is a five year-old lover who came in with Sky and Pebbles (also on this site).  He arrived in foster care on a Friday night and was very frightened for several days. This video was taken on his fifth day and shows what a lover he is when feeling safe. If you think you might consider providing him with his forever home, please call his foster mom Julia at (646) 429-8882.

HOLDEN: as a tiny kitten. He was taken in by a woman who already lived with two 19 year-old cats in a 400 sq ft apartment. Holden came into foster care when the old cats' veterinarian said the stress of having a year-old active cat trying to play with them was hastening their demise. This video was taken on Holden's 3rd day in his foster home. On day 5 he became the intrepid adventurer most orange boys are known for, outgoing and friendly to all! Here is Holden being groomed by his favorite dog. Here are the two at play. To learn more about whether he may be the perfect addition to your family, please call foster mom Julia at 646-429-8882.

SAMANTHA: My name is Samantha and I am Dolly's sister (she is also on this site). I am looking for a forever home as my human has had to go to a nursing home. I am not as active and busy as my sister, but I also love to play with the red dot of a laser pointer. What I lack in activity level, I make up in companionship.  If you will let me, I could sit in your lap or next to you for hours.  My only special need is that I am on a special cat food that I get from my Doctor. I have a chronic kidney problem that is controlled with this food. This is a very good diet for all cats, so my sister and I dine together. My current caregiver is willing to make a donation towards my dietary needs. My sister and I are both spayed. I would make a wonderful companion for either a single or retired person. I would probably be a little reclusive in a very active household. Like my sister, I have never seen a baby or a dog, so I don't know how I would react. Would you also please consider  me for adoption? If someone would take us both together, that would be just the CAT'S MEOW!!!! Please call Bonnie at (845) 331-0451 for more information on Samantha.
