We started our lives on a lonely country road in Puerto Rico when we were just tiny babies. It was scary, but Zani's Furry Friends ZFF rescue partner Kathleen Álvarez stepped in to save us! Now we are healthy 4-5 month old boys, and we are looking for a couch to curl up on forever. ️❤️We are told we are the sweetest, most affectionate little guys around. We've already had our first big-boy shots, our deworming medicine, and we tested NEGATIVE on our Feline Triple Snap Test!We love each other a lot and have so much love to give you, too. We are still in Puerto Rico.Will you take us home? Send a message to the page to ask about adopting us!Zanisfurryfriends.org

Meet Honey & Buns! Honey and Buns are a brother-and-sister duo who are as sweet as they come! These social, friendly kittens are full of playful energy and always seem to be on the move. One minute they are zooming around the house chasing toys, and the next they are completely passed out together for a cozy kitten nap. There is truly no in-between!

8. Nori
Hi, I'm Nori!
My foster mom says I'm the sweetest little soul you'll ever meet. I'm a gentle tuxedo girl with a heart as soft as my fur. I may not be the loudest kitten in the room, but I have a special way of making people feel loved.
One of my favorite things to do is quietly curl up beside my foster mom. I don't need to be in the spotlight—I just love being close to my people, purring away to let them know how happy I am. If you're looking for a calm, affectionate companion who will melt your heart with quiet cuddles, I might be your perfect match.

Don't let my angelic personality fool you—I still have plenty of playful kitten energy! Wave a wand toy in front of me, and I'll happily chase, leap, and pounce until it's time for my next cuddle session.
I'm the perfect mix of gentle, playful, and loving. All I need now is a forever family with whom I can share my purrs, cuddles, and sweet little heart. Female/DOB: 3/5/26

I'm an affectionate kitten who loves spending time with my people, but I'm also always ready for playtime. My favorite toys are wand toys, and I can leap, pounce, and chase them for hours. When I'm not busy showing off my acrobatic skills, you'll probably find me wrestling and playing tag with my sisters, Nori, Tofu, Miso, and Boba.

Because I've grown up surrounded by my siblings, I'd love a home with another playful feline friend to keep me company. If you don't already have a kitty at home, one of my sisters would make the perfect partner for me!

12. Polly Pocket
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 White Plains
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.
