12. Polly Pocket
Kitten · Female · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed · 14 mi from Stamford




Birthdate: 11/17/2025Breed: One of a kindPolly Pocket is one of a kind! She will quickly steal the heart of anyone that meets her. She is a chatty little girl who will chirp when you come in the room - her way of saying hi! She might not come up to you right away, but give her a second and she'll be rolling over ready for pets and love. Sweet Polly was born outside and cared for by a good samaritan who realized that it was time for her and her siblings to find their forever homes. We are so grateful that we get to be part of this special kitty's life.Polly has tested positive for FeLV (Feline Leukemia Virus).
Read more about Polly Pocket
FeLV cats have a virus that causes a weaker immune system! For the most part, felvies are just like any other cat. You could not pick one out of the crowd, and they generally do not require much additional care. As a bonus, PCAR provides full coverage and treatment for any FeLV-related issues that arise after the time of adoption. Cats with FeLV typically have a shortened lifespan - we like to compare it to the lifespan of adopting a senior kitty, with the added benefit that FeLV-related medical care is covered. Polly is not contagious to people, dogs or other animals, but should live only with other FeLV+ cats. For more information, please contact us.Polly Pocket is currently in a foster home. Please email adoptions@pawscrossedny.org if you'd like to meet her!The Rescue is open 7 days a week for you to come and meet our pets! Walk-ins are welcome! In order to interact with them, you’ll need a simple questionnaire filled out. You can fill this out at the Rescue or before you come in at: https://www.pawscrossedny.org/cat-adoption-questionnaire. If you have any questions, please email us at adoptions@pawscrossedny.org for more information. Please understand that we cannot hold pets for any reason. All adoptions are done on a first come, first adopt basis for pre-approved applicants.

Adopting a kitten in Stamford
Kittens usually go to their new homes from about eight weeks old, once they're eating on their own and have had their first vaccinations. Most rescues spay or neuter them before adoption, or include it in the fee.
Think about adopting two. Kittens raised together play with each other instead of your ankles and furniture, and many rescues charge less for a pair.
Kittens need more of your time than grown cats: several small meals a day, plenty of play, and a home with cords and small objects tidied away.
