10. Chloe Skye
Meet Chloe Skye!
Chloe Skye is a petite boned 2 year old girl. She was originally found as a stray but has loved the indoor life since she got a taste of it!
She can be a little shy when introduced to new cats, so a slow introduction will be necessary if you want to integrate her into a busier home.
She is super adorable and loves attention from humans though!
We think she would be fine with kids, but she has not met any dogs yet.

Meet Bandit!
This cute tuxedo has a very unique pink nose. He was born on the streets of Emmaus but adapted to the indoor life immediately!
He is curious and affectionate once he gets to know you! He has the loudest purr. His "motor" starts revving even before you pick him up! Bandit's favorite activity is playing with toys and wrestling with his brother Dickie.
He should go to a home with another younger cat since he is very social.

14. Braveheart
Meet Braveheart! This sweet boy came from a feral colony site with 80 cats we helped tnr. He was tnred as he would constantly run from us. While in recovery from his neutering we noticed he would try to be brave and come get some pets. It did take us some time to earn him trust and will in his new home but he is totally worth it. He is extremely sweet and just wants constant pets now. He does still get nervous with things and will take off with loud noises but if you sit and have patience with him he will come back for the love. He even will yell at you if you stop petting him. He does love other cats and enjoys chasing and play wrestling with them so a home with another cat would be the best fit for him.

16. Yoda W/ Chief Tui
Watch Yoda W/ Chief Tui's video
The force is strong with this one!
Meet Yoda!
Yoda is one handsome boy who is sure to steal your heart! This gorgeous medium-haired gray kitty has adorable tabby stripes on his legs and the most beautiful golden-yellow eyes. But his good looks are only part of what makes him so special!
Read more about Yoda W/ Chief Tui
Yoda is playful, curious, and full of adventure. The moment his foster walks into the room, Yoda comes running with an enthusiastic meow to say hello! He is a total purr machine and absolutely loves attention and pets. He doesn’t mind being picked up or held, but this energetic boy usually has places to go and toys to chase, so he’ll quickly wiggle free and be off on his next adventure.
When he’s not greeting his foster, Yoda loves zooming around and playing with his favorite pom-poms and wand toys. He has plenty of energy and would love a home where he can play, explore, and show off his silly, fun-loving personality.
Yoda must be adopted with his best buddy, Chief Tui. Yoda was found as a single kitten and showed a strong desire to interact with another cat, so Chief Tui was brought in to provide companionship and a playmate. The two quickly became the best of friends and are looking forward to a forever home together.
If you’re looking for a sweet, affectionate, and entertaining companion who will keep you smiling, Yoda just might be your guy!

20. Alley
Hi I'm Alley. I'm a sweet girl who is loving my foster's kisses and pets! I run to greet my foster with lots of chatter and mewos, never wanting her to leave. I did come from a hoarding home where I didn't receive the care and attention I so wanted and deserved. It would only take a hot minute for me to warm up to a human and just a bit for cats; as I had many in my previous home. I would love to find my furrever home so I could always share the love and attention I want to give. Now I am just waiting on you to meet me!

Adopting a cat in Hackettstown
Most rescues ask you to fill in an application, meet the cat, and pay an adoption fee that usually covers spaying or neutering, vaccinations and a microchip. Many are foster-based, so you'll often meet your cat in a volunteer's home rather than a shelter.
Senior cats are often the calmest companions and the slowest to find homes. If you'd like a settled, affectionate cat, ask the rescues about their older residents.
Kittens go quickly, especially in spring and summer. If you've fallen for one, contact the rescue soon, and think about adopting two: young cats keep each other company and out of mischief.
