Dylan and Dexter	Dylan and Dexter are brothers who are very sweet and totally adorable! When they first arrived at their foster home they were shy. Their foster parents were very patient and gave them the time and space they needed to get comfortable in their new surroundings and to learn that humans can be kind and loving! They have become affectionate kitties—climbing on to their foster mom’s lap when she watches TV and snuggling close in bed at night. They are very playful, and they LOVE the other cats in their foster home. Their foster mom is sure that in the right environment they will continue to improve because they have come so far, already. They would probably do best in a quieter home and continue to need people who are loving, gentle, and patient. It would be wonderful if they could be adopted together, since they are bonded and comfortable with one another! For more information about Dylan and Dexter, please call 448-5468, and press 1 for the adoption line. Top of Page
June Jessica June and Jessica are mother and daughter— but you'd have a hard time telling it by looking at them. They look more like siblings! That's what happens when cats aren't spayed and neutered. June had Jessica when she was still really just a kitten, herself. Even though she was only about six months old (the age Jessica is now), she was a really good mom. And despite the fact that she wasn't really taken care of when she was young, June doesn't harbor any hard feelings and has taught Jessica that people are really nice. Both of these sweet girls are very friendly and affectionate —and super cute! They get along great, and it would be wonderful if they could be adopted together. For more information on these adorable kitties, call 448-5468 press 1 for the adoption line. Top of Page	Max Max is a friendly one year old boy....and look at that face! We think he's beyond handsome! He wasn't in foster care long, but he settled right in. He explores - then comes looking for his human family. He gets along with other cats and has a great time with a Turbo Scratcher. Max is a talker and very social. He needs/loves company and would not be happy spending lots of time alone. He's definitely a "companion" kitty. If you'd like to learn more about how to adopt Max, call 448-5468 press 1 for the adoption line. Top of Page
Thomas When AnimaLovers volunteers met Thomas at a local shelter he was so friendly and affectionate that they just could not leave him behind. He is a large, handsome, and rather comical one-year-old neutered male who adores attention, and loves nothing more than to be petted and fussed over. He is very gentle and just wants to spend his days lap-sitting, playing with his toys, and being with a forever family. He would do well in a home with a compatible cat and could probably live with a friendly dog. To meet Thomas, please call AnimaLovers at 448-5468, and press 1 for the adoption line. Top of Page.	Jenny Jenny is a beautiful tuxedo girl who is about a year old. She was found wondering the streets of Schenectady when a nice lady took her in. However, the lady’s cat did not welcome Jenny, so AnimaLovers took her to find her a forever home. Jenny is doing great in her foster home. She gets along with everyone – the grown ups, kids and the other felines. She is very sweet and gentle. She loves to be petted and is a purring machine. She even rolls over to have her tummy rubbed. She follows her foster mom around from room to room, looking for more attention. Jenny is ready to go to her forever home! To meet Jenny, please call AnimaLovers at 448-5468, and press 1 for the adoption line. Top of Page.
Holly Holly is a gorgeous calico kitty that was rescued from a rural shelter that has few adoptions. She is very friendly and was comfortable as soon as she arrived at her foster home – no hiding for Holly! She loves to be petted and to sit in her foster mom’s lap. She will purr and purr as she is being given attention. She is great with other cats and not at all nervous around young children. She is a wonderful cat. To meet her, please call 448-5468, and press 1 for the adoption line. Top of Page	Scotty What a handsome, friendly boy! Scotty adores people, loves playing with the other cats in his foster home and even tolerates (but isn't wild about) the family dog. This is the kind of cat most people want (and what a lot of people expect with orange boys...which is why they are so popular!). Scotty is very social and would not be happy in a home without a companion kitty - plus he'd love lots of people interaction too. He'd be a great family pet! For more information on Scotty, call 448-5468, and press 1 for the adoption line. Top of Page
Emily and Evan Emily and Evan are four-month-old, playful siblings. They love chasing and playing with each other and playing with their toys. When they aren't running around they will sit with you and cuddle. They had no problem fitting in with their foster family and can't wait for the opportunity to move into their forever home—and they would love to be adopted together! To meet them, please call 448-5468, and press 1 for the adoption line. Top of Page	Remy Remy is a 6-month-old, handsome male. He has tons of love to share, loves to snuggle, and definitely is a lap cat that loves attention. Remy made himself at home the second he arrived at his new foster home and has won the hearts of every member of his foster family. Please give Remy a chance to win you over with his friendliness. Call 448-5468, and press 1 for the adoption line to learn how you can meet him! Top of Page
Baker Baker is still a kitten, and may be shy at first, but soon shows his warm and friendly side! He enjoys running and playing with the older cats—and he also enjoys hanging out with his humans; he even likes being picked up (something new to him!). If you would like to meet Baker, call 448-5468, and press 1 for the adoption line. Top of Page	Harvest Harvest is a happy boy—busy exploring and playing with other cats and his toys! He can't believe how lucky he is to be with loving people and animals since AnimaLovers rescued him; in fact, he visits his people during the night, stays for awhile, then goes back to sleep with the other cats! If Harvest sounds like a great addition to your household, please call 448-5468, and press 1 for the adoption line! Top of Page
Chanel Chanel is a super-cute and friendly, one-year-old girl. She was in a foster home with another male cat and they got along famously. Almost immediately, they were playing and hanging out together. She's affectionate and loves being part of a family but is a teensy bit over-whelmed by all the cats at clinic. Not to worry, get her home and you'll have a wonderful companion! For more information about Chanel, call 448-5468, and press 1 for the adoption line. Top of Page	Ellie Ellie was rescued by a kind woman who knew the sweet, friendly cat she was feeding definitely didn't belong outside! What could have happened? Ellie was already spayed when we rescued her so we know she had a family once. And, she was so, so happy to be in a foster home. She did fine with the two male cats she lived with but would also be quite content to be an only, much loved kitty. She's cute as can be (much sweeter looking in person than in this photo) and a great age. At two years, Ellie is still playful and full of fun but also past the crazy kitten stage. For more information about Ellie, call 448-5468, and press 1 for the adoption line. Top of Page
Crosby I was born into a home with many cats, along with a family member who was dealing with a serious illness. Due to these circumstances, they were unable to care for me; so I was placed in a foster home and given the vet care that I needed. I'm a very outgoing, friendly, and energetic kitten! (I love to be the center of attention.) I was totally comfortable in my foster home from the moment I walked in the door! I'm very affectionate. I love to be held and will purr loudly to show you my appreciation. I LOVE toy mice! I pounce on them, growl at them and carry them around in my mouth, all in the name of fun and to the amusement of my foster parents. Take me home so I can entertain you and be a loyal companion. I've been in a foster home with Tippi and we're great friends. We'd love to go to a home together. Please call 448-5468, and press 1 for the adoption line. Top of Page	Ely s Eve Eve and Ely are six-month-old kitties that just came into our program and into foster care. They are cute as can be!

Tippi I was found outside in downtown Albany. A kind woman took me in but couldn't keep me, so an AnimaLovers volunteer brought me to a foster home. When I first arrived there, I was a little shy and a little hissy (but harmless) toward the other cats. But I settled in very quickly, and once I was comfortable, I became a total love bug! I love to be held and to sit on your lap. I will purr and purr when you pet me - and you will love to pet me because my fur is soft as a bunny's coat! I will flop right onto my back so you can shower me with affection. And I love to sleep snuggled close to you at night. I'm playful and enjoy the company of other cats. I have been fostered with Crosby and we're good buddies. We would love to be adopted together. If you take me home, I promise you'll be so happy with me! Please call 448-5468, and press 1 for the adoption line to learn how you can meet me! Top of Page	Mason Mason has a face "to die for" and a wonderful, loving personality too! He's very friendly and affectionate, great with the other cats in his foster home). He's a lap cat that loves people and being part of the action and is really good with kids. Mason loves to gently rub against the face of his humans and even gives kitty kisses. When he runs to you for attention, there isn't a cuter sight! And Mason does one of those things we foster parents love...he sleeps on his back with his feet in the air and his tummy fully exposed -- that means he feels safe. Now we're looking for a home for Mason where he'll feel safe for life! If you think you're the perfect place for Mason, call 448-5468, and press 1 for the adoption line. Top of Page

Top of Page	Catrina Catrina’s mom lives in a feral colony, where the men taking care of her noticed she’d often head across the road. They investigated and found six kittens under a dumpster. During and after Hurricane Irene, the area flooded 3 times – and each time, mom moved all six kittens to higher ground. After the floods, one of the kittens was brought to a clinic to be vetted. The volunteers decided she deserved a chance at an indoor home and named her Catrina. Although she was found in a feral colony, Catrina is a very sweet girl who loves attention. She’ll snuggle in your arms and purr as soon as you touch her. Although she’s a little shy when she first gets to a new place, she doesn’t hide; she just stays quietly in one place and keeps a very close eye on you! She loves to play with her foster mom’s fingers, the other kittens in her foster home, and her new toys. She wouldn’t do well in a loud or chaotic home – but she’s very gentle and responds well to being talked to and petted. To learn how you can meet her, please call 448-5468, and press 1 for the adoption line. Top of Page
Oscar Oscar is a handsome, gentle boy, who is two and a half years old. He had a rough start of life, but that has not affected his sweet nature. He spent his first two years at a shelter that has very few adoptions. When AnimaLovers placed him in a foster home, that was his first experience living in a house with humans. He was very nervous at first, but after a few weeks and lots of love and patience, he began to trust his foster people. He loves to be petted and will purr and purr. He is very talkative and will let you know when he wants more food or some attention. Also, he likes when his people talk to him. He is great with young kids and gets along with his fellow felines in his foster home. Oscar is such a wonderful cat and very deserving of a forever home! If Oscar sounds like the perfect addition to your family, please call AnimaLovers at 448-5468, and press 1 for the adoption line. Top of Page	Belle Belle is just the sweetest girl who follows her foster mom all over the house.. and cuddles as soon as anyone sits down! What a love, just wants human attention! You could carry her around all day and she would be in heaven! She loves cats, kids and dogs! To meet Belle, please call AnimaLovers at 448-5468, and press 1 for the adoption line. Top of Page
Rocket Rocket has a very sad story that is on its way to a happy ending. She was in a shelter when we found her. She had been adopted and returned because the adopter said she hid. With that stigma (and so few adoptions at this rural shelter) she was destined to spend her life there. But the volunteers saw something special. Why was this cat labeled as a hider when she was out all the time? She loved attention and greeted all the visitors...there had to be more to the story. So a patient volunteer took her expecting she would need extra time and attention. What a surprise!! She has been friendly and affectionate from the very beginning of her time with AnimaLovers. Although she might be happier in a quieter home (her foster home had two adults and three other cats - no dogs or kids) she adapted right away and showed what a loving (and cute!) companion she is!! This sweet girl deserves a wonderful home--and the person who adopts her will get a terrific best friend. For more information, call 448-5468, and press 1 for the adoption line. Top of Page	Priscilla and Philip Phillip and Priscilla are approximately 2 years old, and brother and sister. Their previous owner moved and left these beautiful kitties behind. Phillip is a handsome young cat, who loves to play chase with his sister and is somewhat obsessed with water. Don't be surprised to find him jumping in the tub when you turn the faucet on. He greets his foster parents with little meows, loves to be held and sits nicely on your lap. His sister, Priscilla, is a little quieter, but a beautiful long-haired young cat who also enjoys playing. She is quite often found playing with a catnip toy that she tosses in the air and then jumps high to pounce on it. She also enjoys being held and loved. Please consider giving these two beautiful, sweet and friendly cats the forever home they deserve. (Because they are bonded, they must be adopted together.) To meet Priscilla and Philip, call AnimaLovers at 448-5468, and press 1 for the adoption line. Top of Page
Smythe You never quite know what to expect when you get a call asking for help. This time the call was from a teenage girl. A cat had been hanging around their house for a couple of weeks. He was super-friendly and the family was feeding him, but it was getting colder and they were concerned about him living outside. When our volunteer went to the home to try to help, Smythe came running. He loved his temporary family, but this guy wanted a home of his own! He had no problem going into the carrier, no problem at the vet (he had already been neutered) and in his foster home he had no problem with the other cats. It was clear Smythe wanted to do all he could to get a family again. When these things happen we always wonder. Was Smythe lost? There didn't seem to be anyone looking for him. Was he abandoned? How could such a great guy be abandoned? We'll never know. But we do know this, thanks to the kindness of one young girl....Smythe is on his way to a better life. For more information about this great cat, call 448-5468, and press 1 for the adoption line. Top of Page	Macy This adorable little kitten is full of energy, full of love and ready for her new home! Macy and her sister Mindy (ask about Mindy - she'll be available soon too!) were rescued by a volunteer and have been living with her family, baby, cats and two dogs. (Macy is fine with the dogs but Mindy is not so sure!) Macy just arrived at our adoption clinic, and she is having a grand time getting attention and playing with the other cats. Please consider giving Macy (and Mindy!) a home for Christmas. For more information call 448-5468, and press 1 for the adoption line. Top of Page
