2. Nickel
Senior · Male · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed · 39 mi from Norwalk


Hi! My name is Nickel, because when I came to the shelter they found a nickel in my carrier! I am a sweet boy who was living outdoors and a kind person cared for me for many months and then brought me here to find my forever home. One of my ears looks a bit crumpled but is perfectly healthy and makes me look even more adorable! I am a bit shy, but with patience, time and treats, I will soon be your best friend! I am on a special diet to prevent GI issues and I am also positive for FIV, and the staff can give you more information about that. I get along well with other cats and can live with cats who do not have FIV as long as they also get along with others.

9. Squeak
Senior (12 years 5 months) · Male · Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · 44 mi from Norwalk




Squeak
is a silly, brave, warm cat that just needs a little patience to come out of his shell.
You'd never guess this little baby was 12 years old - he has the energy and sparkle of a kitten, always ready to play and eat. He's can be a tad skittish at times, though he's braver and braver every day.
He's great at coming when called, and with a little encouragement will come right up for pets. He's got a purr you can hear anywhere in the apartment, and he loves chin scratches, head pats, and slamming his whole body into you for love. When he's extra happy, he loves to give love bites (though he's got no teeth so it's really just love-gumming).
Read more about Squeak
Squeak
is always excited to eat, and is at his most vocal during dinner time. He loves treats, especially churu, and has been loving learning how to play. His favorite toy at the moment is the wand toy, and he'll happily chase it back and forth until he's tired and ready to lay down.
Though very independent,
Squeak
is on his way to being a sweet, lovey cat. He loves to keep his foster parent company, and loves having another cat around.
Squeak is neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccines, negative for FIV and FeLV and treated for parasites. He has had a dental surgery were all his teeth were removed, and he's so much happier now. This means no future dental bills for his forever human! He has a benign heart murmur that has already been looked at by a cardiologist, who told us it's nothing to worry about.
If you’re interested in meeting Squeak, fill out an application at www.brooklynanimalaction.org/adoption-forms and designate Dana H as the rescuer.
