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

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.

3. Oakie the Acorn
Adult · Male · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed · 14 mi from Maybrook


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.

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.

17. Woody
Young · Male · Tuxedo · 23 mi from Maybrook



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.

18. Kitten Spot
Kitten · Male · Domestic Long Hair (long coat) · 26 mi from Maybrook



Meet Spot!
Spot is 5 months old, white with the most perfect black spots, and 100% convinced he is a dog.
He doesn't just walk into a room — he trots in, with that fluffy black tail in the air. He comes when called, follows you from room to room like a shadow, brings you his toys to play fetch, and will happily sit on your feet while you work. He loves a good pillow nap, but he'd rather be right next to you than anywhere else.
Found napping, playing, and posing like a pro, Spot has mastered:

The head-tilt stare that says "throw it again"
The paw-up "shake" (we're still working on it, but he's got the spirit)
The classic flop-and-roll for belly rubs
Guarding his favorite sage-green pillow like it's his job
He's playful, people-focused, curious, and incredibly sweet. Spot would love a home where he can be your little sidekick — on the couch, by the desk, or patrolling the hallway like the good boy he knows he is.
He's not a cat who thinks he's a dog. He's a dog who happens to look like a cat.
Age: 5 months Likes: pillows, people, toys that jingle, being included in everything Dislikes: being ignored, closed doors Superpower: making you laugh at least 10 times a day
Think you need a dog? Maybe you just need Spot.

Adopting a cat in Maybrook
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.
