1. Griffin
Adult (2 years) · Male · Domestic Short Hair (short coat)



Griffin is the type of cat that anyone could love, but he is looking for a home with someone who can see how unique he is! With his devilish good looks, this "Brooklyn Blue" is a boroughbred sweetheart with a confident attitude, who is ready to melt into your bed or couch to keep you company, will make an appearance on the Zoom call, and is chill with other cats and dogs. He is a playful guy with a sporty streak, so get ready for lots of playtime to keep him entertained. But after a workout, he's ready to chill out with you and keep you warm all winter long.
Read more about Griffin
In September, Griffin trotted up to one of our rescuers who was holding an open cat treat after a rescue in Brownsville and said "yes please" and "thank you" as he climbed their leg to get the snack. With that brazen introduction, we knew unequivocally that this guy wanted to live the good life indoors. We quickly scooped him into a carrier and got him to safety, where he housed many cans of food and made himself comfy, and we intend to give him a future of only that life moving forward.
Griffin is approximately 2 years old, neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated. He is negative for FeLV and FIV. He has been dewormed and treated for fleas.
If you’d like to meet this handsome boy, please complete our adoption application and write in Nora as his rescuer https://brooklynanimalaction.org/adoption-forms/
Thank you for thinking of a rescue animal in need of a loving home! Adopting one cat will help to open space for future animals dreaming of finding a home!

2. Finley
Adult (4 years) · Male · Domestic Short Hair (short coat)



Finley is the calmest, sweetest cat you could find. He is a cuddly boy who has a dream of a purr, likes play time and pets, and of course, any treats and snacks you want to give to him. He is a perfect cat for the household ready to bring on a first or second cat, and is a mature, elegant, yet goofy addition to the family. His foster says he is the chillest cat she's ever had, and we believe he'd do well in a household with kids, cats, or dogs, given the proper introductions.
Read more about Finley
This October, Finley showed up to a managed and TNR'd feral colony in Crown Heights, and made it known that he did not belong on the streets, following their regular caretaker with a polite but insistent meow requesting to come indoors. When he followed one of our rescuers back to their apartment door, we had no choice but to scoop him up and settle him back into the luxury and comfort he was accustomed to. We are so relieved he won't have to spend a hard winter on the streets, and delighted to give him a temporary spot to clean his crisp white socks while he waits for his person to come along.
Finley is approximately 4 years old, neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated. He is negative for FeLV and FIV. He has been dewormed and treated for fleas.

5. Pagoda
Adult (2 years 1 month) · Female · Domestic Short Hair


Pagoda is a beautiful sweet girl! Having come from a hoarding situation, she is very shy, but learning to come out of her shell. She’s most active and curious at night, exploring the whole apartment and leaving no corner un-sniffed. She’s very food-motivated, licking the plate clean every time and licking Churu off her foster's hand. Around humans, she still gets a little scared. But every night, she claims the pillow where her foster sits, a small sign she’s learning to love.
She’ll do the best with a patient adopter who is willing to take the time to let her blossom. She’s not the cuddliest (not yet!) but coming out of her shell day-by-day.
Read more about Pagoda
Pagoda is FeLV+ and needs to be adopted as a single cat or with another feline leukemia positive companion. Cats that are FeLV+ can live normal and healthy lives when provided with quality care such as a balanced diet and yearly wellness exam, however most likely their lifespans will be shorter than other cats. We’d be happy to talk more about this!

6. Venom
Adult (1 year) · Male · Domestic Short Hair




Venom was deceptively named, as there is nothing venomous about this sweet tabby boy. (Given his propensity to sit on his bum like a little old man, we often call him lil’ Vinny).
Read more about Venom
Venom started out shy and nervous about his new surroundings, but never hissed or bit. We quickly learned he is motivated by Churu treats and chin scratches. He can still be a bit skittish around loud sounds (and he is deeply distrusting of our ceiling fan), but with time to explore he has now settled into life as a very cozy couch cat. Venom loves to spend his days napping in the sun, meowing at mealtime, annihilating his mouse toy, and requesting head rubs. He will gladly follow you all around the house just to hang out.
Venom is comfy around new adults, he would definitely be happy in a quiet, calm, and loving home.
This cat can be adopted with a friend or as a single cat.

7. Affogato & Bomboloni
Kitten (2 months 24 days) · Female · Domestic Short Hair









Bomboloni is an adorable sweet and adventurous little kitten who loves to play, be pet and massaged, and is really chill as soon as she warms up to the environment. She is friendly and curious and amazing at catching any toy. She spends most of her day cuddled next to me, playing with her sister, discovering things, and purring a lot!
Affogato is an adorable sweet little kitten who loves to play as well! It takes her a little longer than Bomboloni to warm up to an environment but once she does she is just as fast and curious! She also loves to be pet and purrs a ton.
Read more about Affogato & Bomboloni
They both are the cutest little pair! They eat and drink very well, are always super clean, litter box trained 100%, and play together really well. They are both very happy cats.
Please note they are too young to be altered. We will schedule this with an adopter when the time comes.

9. Cannoli & Studio
Kitten (2 months 29 days) · Domestic Short Hair





Meet Cannoli & Studio
Cannoli and Studio are a playful, affectionate seven-week-old bonded pair looking for a home together. Although they aren’t siblings, they’ve become a lovely little team and are ready to find a family of their own.
Cannoli is a beautiful white kitty with distinctive markings. She’s a little more cautious than Studio and likes to take her time getting comfortable, but she’s sweet, cuddly and loves affection once she feels safe.
Studio is a handsome tabby boy with plenty of playful energy. He’s curious, outgoing and always ready for a game, but he’s just as happy snuggling up for cuddles and climbing into a welcoming lap.

While we are still learning about her personality, we can tell she is friendly, curious and will happily purr away as she's getting pets and attention. Give her a good scratch at the base of her tail, and you might just get to see her adorable little "elevator butt" move. She is truly a charming and mesmerizing kitty and is sure to bring plenty of love and smiles to her future family.
Given her age, Baby Ruth would do best in a home with another young playmate to let her energy out.

Kitten (5 months) · Domestic Short Hair






Cinder & Ash were born in the backyard of an apartment building. Some concerned residents rescued them and brought them to our rescue. A neighbor is currently fostering the two of them, and they are getting braver every day.
These two kittens are understandably terrified of people. Although they still have a long road ahead of them, they do now accept treats from their foster mom's hand. They require love and most importantly patience from a kind individual.
Please note they are too young to be altered. We will work with an adopter to schedule this when the time comes.

He’s very polite, and is more on the quiet side. He really only meows when he’s hungry or trying to go somewhere he can’t. He’s a very chill cat and he would be a great addition to any family.

17. Double Dutch
Adult (10 months) · Female · Domestic Short Hair






This sweet girl is a young mama who had kittens while she was still a kitten herself. Now it’s her turn to be someone’s baby!
Double Dutch can be shy at first, but once she feels comfortable, her affectionate personality really shines. She’ll follow you around, looking for pets and scritches, and happily settle into your lap for some quality cuddle time.
She’s playful, too, but has left the extra-wild kitten stage behind. Double Dutch has the best of both worlds: a fun, playful side and a love for cozy time with her favorite people.
Give this lovely girl a little time to warm up, and you’ll have a devoted little best friend by your side.

20. Hubby
Adult (10 years 6 months) · Male · Domestic Short Hair



Hubby is a total sweetheart who lives for cuddles and affection. He’s extremely loving, a very calming presence, and he loves people. He gets along great with strangers and is very friendly. He’s 11 years old, food-motivated, and low-key. He’s not a playful cat, so he’s best suited to a laid-back home rather than one with a lot of chaos or other high-energy pets.
Read more about Hubby
He does have some care needs. He’s had recurring issues with constipation, so we’re hoping to find an adopter with experience managing a pet’s medical needs. His daily routine includes Royal Canin wet food, Purina Pro Plan Hydracare, and Purina Pro Plan probiotic, every day. He’s also a bit overweight at 18 lbs, so a home with room to encourage some gentle exercise and a commitment to a healthier diet would really help him thrive.
This cat would prefer to be adopted alone and be the only cat in the home.
This is a courtesy listing, meaning the cat(s) are being offered for adoption by a rescuer, rescue group, or individual unaffiliated with the Brooklyn Cat Cafe or Brooklyn Bridge Animal Welfare Coalition. As BBAWC has not evaluated the animal(s) we therefore cannot provide information on health or temperament. After we receive an application, we will connect you with the current caretaker of this cat.

21. Joe Dirt
Adult (1 year) · Male · Domestic Short Hair




Meet Joe Dirt!
Found hanging outside a pizza shop in Brooklyn Heights (a hankering we can all understand), Joe Dirt is ready to find his forever home. At around 1 year old, this handsome orange tuxedo boy has the serious, distinguished air of a much older gentleman.
Read more about Joe Dirt
Mr. Dirt is sweet, affectionate, and wonderfully chill. He's a quiet companion, except for his enthusiastic purring during lap time and chin scratches. He loves curling up next to his humans, stretching out his long limbs, and rolling onto his back when he's feeling extra comfortable. After a good meal, he'll treat himself to a relaxing bath and admire his handsome reflection in the bathroom mirror — a true gentleman who appreciates self-care!
Still settling in, Joe hasn't shown much interest in toys just yet, preferring to explore his surroundings and perfect his lounging skills.
If you're looking for a gentle, low-key companion with a serious face, a big purr, and a quirky streak, Mr. Dirt might just be your guy!
This cat can be adopted with a friend or as a single cat.

Mama Hellen is a total sweetheart, and she went from hiding behind the toilet to sprawling on the couch, napping next to her people, and leaning into cheek scratches. She loves catching rays in whatever sun spots she can find.
She is calm, quiet, and very well-behaved. She is just starting to work up the courage to swat at some toys. She is the most gentle girl, ready for someone to give her a chance.
Read more about Mama Hellen
Mama Hellen is still very cautious with new people and doesn't like being approached from above or too quickly, and does not like to be picked up. She does not like loud noises, so a quieter home would be best. She is a very independent girl who will come to you when she wants some scratches.

27. Shaggy
Adult (3 years) · Male · Domestic Medium Hair




Shaggy is such a sweet boy! He’s a pretty independent guy and generally spends most of the day doing his own thing. He loves to find a quiet spot to hide, but enjoys stealing the spotlight on a work call as well! He appreciates the company of people and often comes when called. If you pat the couch he will hop right up and wait expectantly for pets! He has absolutely no sense of personal space and will happily climb all over you on the couch, but is a respectful king at night and will sleep politely at the foot of the bed. He has a strong preference for catnip toys and is very treat motivated! He would probably do best with someone who works from home or is hybrid, as we get the sense he likes having people around.

Shaggy was rescued with dental issues and is in need of surgery. We would be thrilled for a potential adopter to provide a larger adoption donation (between $250 and $400 total) and/or assistance crowdsourcing funds towards their necessary vet bills if possible.

29. Sid
Adult (2 years 1 month) · Male · Domestic Short Hair




Meet Sid: the sweetest, most affectionate orange boy (with brains to match!)
Sid spent his early days exploring the great outdoors, and now he’s discovering all the good things indoor life has to offer. Case in point: he only recently met his first Churu. A week ago he wasn’t sure what to do with one; now he’s a certified fan. Similarly, he also just discovered what a reflection in the mirror is. His paws are still getting used to the soft life, and he’s loving every minute of it.
Read more about Sid
Sid takes a few days to get to know you, but once he does, he’ll be your loyal friend. He’ll come running when you call for him, greet you with VERY enthusiastic head bumps, and never say no to a good chin scratch. He appreciates the little things. Mealtime and treats are definitely the highlights of his day.
Sid is also still learning how to play. Strings and toy mice haven’t quite clicked for him yet. We think this street-smart boy is used to the real thing and isn’t fooled by imitations! He’s curious and clever, though, so we have a feeling that the right person (and the right toy) will unlock his playful side. Maybe you’ll be the one to discover his favorite game.
He’s the perfect balance of cuddly and independent. Sid is happy to sit quietly by your side for hours, but he’s just as content entertaining himself while you’re busy. He still doesn’t like to be held though – some conditioning will be necessary if you want to pick him up. He’s also a very tidy gentleman. He takes his grooming seriously and has excellent litter box manners.
If you’re looking for a loving, grateful companion who will make every day a little brighter, Sid is ready to meet you!
This cat needs to be adopted with a friend -- applications for them as a single cat will not be answered.

Adopting a cat in Kings County
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.
