1. Pearl
Young · Female · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 6 mi from Danbury




Name: PearlAge: about 5 years old*Adoption Fee: $200Meet Pearl, a sweet and charming girl with a story that deserves a happy ending. When her previous owners moved away, they sadly left her behind in their apartment building to fend for herself. Although they left her behind, they did leave her wearing a pretty pearl collar, which inspired us to give her the name Pearl. Now, she is safe, loved, and ready to find someone who will never leave her behind again. Pearl has been an absolute pleasure to have around! She is a loving, affectionate girl who enjoys all the little things that make a cat happy.
Read more about Pearl
She adores head rubbies, ear rubbies, catnip, and giving sweet little head butts to show you just how much she likes you. She is also quite the talker and loves to share her thoughts with you, so you'll never have to wonder what's on her mind! Pearl has a few preferences that make her personality even more endearing. She loves her special chair and firmly believes it belongs to her and her alone! Try to sit in it, and she'll be sure to let you know that you've made a terrible mistake. She also loves affection, but belly rubs are definitely not on her list of favorite things. And while she enjoys being close to her people and sharing love, she's not much of a lap cat. She's more of a "I'll sit near you, give you head butts, and accept all the attention I want, thank you very much!" kind of girl.After being left behind by the people she depended on, Pearl deserves a forever home where she will always feel safe, cherished, and wanted. She has so much love to give and a wonderful personality to share with someone special. If you're looking for a sweet, vocal, affectionate companion with a little sass and a whole lot of heart, Pearl may just be your girl. Pearl is ready for her next chapter — one filled with love, comfort, and a family who will always choose her.

*Name: Ziggy Age: DOB 4/12/23Adoption Fee: $200Ziggy is a 3-year-old orange-and-white gentleman who would like you to know that he operates on Ziggy Time. And no, you cannot rush Ziggy Time. Don’t even try. This handsome little guy is basically a tiny panther who happens to come in orange and white. He has the confidence, the attitude, and just enough questionable decision-making to qualify. Ziggy absolutely craves human affection and wants to be wherever his people are. He loves attention, affection, and being told what a handsome boy he is. The problem is… sometimes he loves it a little too much.
Read more about Ziggy
When Ziggy gets overstimulated, his feelings can occasionally overflow into a little love nibble. We’re working on teaching him that sometimes the appropriate response to affection is more purring and not a tiny chomp.Ziggy is the kind of cat who needs someone willing to let him set the pace, respect his boundaries, and appreciate his quirky orange-cat personality. Give him time, let him come to you, and he’ll reward you with plenty of affection—and probably a little bit of panther-level mischief.If you're looking for a cat with personality, charm, a serious appreciation for humans, and just enough spicy orange-cat energy to keep life interesting, Ziggy might be your guy.

8. Stewart
Adult (2 months 23 days) · Male · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 23 mi from Danbury








Happiness, joy, and pure love really do come in one tiny, fluffy package—and his name is Stewart (aka Stewie).
Once we discovered that the secret to his heart is a good scratch behind the ears, Stewie quickly decided humans are his favorite thing (tied with his beloved rattle ball). He has an industrial-strength purr motor—and when he’s extra happy, he adds in a drooly little “love bonus.” Yes, it’s as adorable as it sounds.
Stewart is also very vocal—he’ll happily “talk” to you, and make it clear when he’s ready for pets. He’s an easy kitten to read and loves that back-and-forth interaction with his people.
Read more about Stewart
Don’t let his clingy singleton-kitten past fool you—Stewart is the best of both worlds. He’s perfectly content entertaining himself during the day, and by night he is ready for full-time snuggles.
Stewart gets along well with other cats, has a heart of gold, and carries around the sweetest, most positive little outlook on life. Whether your home is big or small, full of kids or calm and quiet, Stewart will fit right in and love you endlessly. He hasn’t met a dog yet, but with a gentle intro, we think he’d do just fine.
If you’re looking for a social, playful, affectionate, certified lover boy with top-tier snuggles and unmatched charm, then Stewie is your guy.
Stewart was born on June 16, 2026, and is currently being fostered in Southington. He will be fixed, up-to-date on shots, and has tested for FIV/FeLV.
All of our cats and kittens are cared for in loving foster homes. "Meet and Greets" can be arranged only after an application has been submitted and approved.

Evian was a very protective momma and took her job seriously. Once she was separated from her babies, she was so done with being a mom...she doesn't even want them near her.
Evian enjoys head pets and ear scratches. She doesn't enjoy her back touched, and she doesn't enjoy being picked up. That may change in time.
Evian enjoys spending her days relaxing in the cat tree on the sun porch.

She isn't a fan of any of the resident cats or foster kittens in her foster home, though she tolerates them and will growl and hiss if they get too close. There is no fighting or aggression.
Evian loves her wet food. She prefers gravy style.
Her ideal home is a quiet home with either no pets or another docile cat.
Evian was born around June 24, 2024, and is currently being fostered in Naugatuck. She is fixed, up-to-date on shots, and tested negative for FIV/FeLV.

15. Mia
Young (7 months) · Female · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 23 mi from Danbury


Hi, I’m Mia!
I was found in Waterbury with a bulge the size of a baseball on my belly. A kind woman came and rescued me. I then started living the life I was meant to live...spoiled!!! I was taken to the vet and it was a hernia. I was spayed and the hernia was fixed, and I am now ready for adoption.
Hate to say, but...I want to be the only cat in the house. If you have a small dog, I can use the dog as a foot rest or pillow. My foster mommy says I am full of cuddles and purrs. I love to be petted, pampered and go nuts for kitty crack (Churus). I’m still young and hopefully I will stay a petite little girl.
Read more about Mia
Please consider adopting me because my foster mommy has too many foster kittens and cats. They will not worship me be cause they think I am one of them. I am the high priestess of cats and they are supposed to worship me.
Mia was born around December 29, 2025, and is currently being fostered in Ansonia. She is fixed, up-to-date on shots, and tested negative for FIV/FeLV.

Cookie is one of the gentlest cats you'll ever meet.

While she enjoys playing, Cookie is much more relaxed than most kittens her age. She is patient, affectionate, and wonderfully easygoing, making her an excellent fit for families with respectful children or gentle dogs.

Meet Chicken! After raising her two adorable sons, Ham and Turkey, this wonderful mama is finally ready for a little something she's never really had before: a home that's all her own. She has been an incredibly patient, loving mother to her boys, and now that these two little goblins have found their forever home together, it's Chicken's turn to be spoiled.
Read more about Chicken
Chicken is about two years old and absolutely beautiful. She has striking green eyes, the cutest little orange-pink nose, and a soft tabby coat with subtle Bengal-like markings that shimmer in the sunlight. She also has the sweetest slightly wonky eyes that always seem to be looking in two different directions, somehow making her even more charming. Don't let them fool you though, she never misses a bird outside her favorite window.
Chicken has one of the gentlest souls you'll ever meet. She loves quiet company, soft conversations, and cozy afternoons spent stretched out in a sunny window watching the birds. She has the cutest little chirping trill that somehow sounds like a tiny song, and she has a habit of chatting with her people throughout the day. If she falls asleep nearby, don't be surprised to catch her with her tiny little tongue poking out... she does this a lot and it is adorable.
While she enjoys other cats and is perfectly happy around gentle dogs, Chicken doesn't need a busy household to be happy. She would thrive in a calm, relaxing home where she can soak up the sunshine, watch the birds from her favorite perch, and finally enjoy being someone's baby instead of raising everyone else's.
Chicken has excellent litter box manners and loves people.

Young · Female · Tortoiseshell · 21 mi from Danbury



Jolene is a sweet young tortie kitten and the last surviving kitten of her litter. She loves to sleep on the bed with humans and looking out the window. Jolene would do best in a calm household although she does get occasional zoomies. She is perfect for someone looking for a loving companion. She will greet you affectionately in the morning and see you off to bed in the evening. Jolene can be adopted alone or to a home with other cats.

29. Woody
Young · Male · Tuxedo · 21 mi from Danbury



Woody is a cuddly young tuxedo kitten. Woody was the last surviving kitten of his litter and bonded with another last-survivor, Calvin. He is curious and playful, and spiritually a rag-doll (likes to go limp when you pick him up). Woody loves warmth, food, his soulmate Calvin, and Calvin’s food bowl. Woody loves playing with Calvin and taking turns chasing each other around the house. When not playing, the two like to nap in each other’s arms. Woody is a great conversationalist – if you look at him and say something, he will meow back! And if you ask him for a “belly check”, he will flop to the ground and show his belly. Woody has bonded with Calvin and they should be adopted together.

Why adopt an adult cat in Danbury
An adult cat's personality is fully formed, so the rescue can tell you how they are with people, other pets and busy households. Many have lived in foster homes and are used to family life.
Grown cats are calmer and need less supervision than kittens, which suits people who work long hours or have young children.
