1. Calvin
Young · Male · Tabby (short coat) · 15 mi from Harriman




Calvin is a young orange calico kitten with eyes as big as his personality. Calvin was the last surviving kitten of his litter and bonded with another last-survivor, Woody. Calvin loves playing with Woody and taking turns chasing each other around the house. When they’re tired, they like to sleep while holding each other! When not playing Woody, Calvin likes to flop in your lap and show his belly for rubs. His favorite activity is laying on his back in the crook of your arm and purring his little heart off. Calvin is built like an athlete and hunter and will hunt down any loose flies/bugs in your house with gusto! He LOVES chasing toys and performing daring acrobatics. Calvin has bonded with Woody and they should be adopted together.

2. Jolene
Young · Female · Tortoiseshell · 15 mi from Harriman



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.

3. Woody
Young · Male · Tuxedo · 15 mi from Harriman



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.

Hi! My name is Nickel, because when I came to the shelter they found a nickel in my carrier!

6. Oakie the Acorn
Adult · Male · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed · 17 mi from Harriman


Hi! My name is Oakie the Acorn! I am a sweet, gentle, cat who loves to cuddle with other cats. I was brought to MHAA after being found as a stray with a visible "wobble". I am believed to have been hit by a car during my difficult outdoor life. This left permanent spinal trauma which causes me to be uncoordinated. I am not in any discomfort though and get along very well with my disability! I am a little shy but enjoy attention and petting, and sometimes I like to play with wand toys. I am looking for a calm home with other friendly cats. I have also tested positive for FIV, which the team at the shelter can tell you more about, and can live with cats who do not have FIV as long as they also get along with others.

Adopting a cat in Harriman
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.
