Because life is better with a cat on your lap!
Hi Elizabeth, it’s been a few months and Danger a.k.a Swiffer is doing great! He loves his brothers (to the point where they get a bit annoyed) and is ball of affection. I’ve attached a photo of him being his silly self. Hope the kitty connection fam is doing well! Christine
We adopted Angelica (we call her Angie) a little over a month ago. We went into Kitty Connection looking to adopt a kitten and ended up falling in love with the mama who was taking care of all of the stray kittens. She was a little timid when we first got her home and had mastitis, but now she is fully recovered and has really warmed up to us. She
I brought my friend Jane into Pet Smart a few months ago and although she was reluctant to adopt a second cat (due to still dealing with her husband’s death last winter) I was able to convince her to adopt Nemo, known as Charlie now. He is absolutely fabulous and she adores him. And he loves her. He hopped into her lap the instant he arrived. He is extremely smart
This is our very handsome Remy, a Snowshoe Siamese that we adopted 2 weeks ago. He is such a wonderful cat, with a great personality and he has completely taken over our house! He makes his demands loud and clear–my husband has given him the nickname of “Dinner Dish” and my son calls him “Lunch Box”. Thank you so much for the wonderful work you do for the animals! Meg,
Hi, I adopted Ricky from you back in February…okay, Jake, but I call him Ricky. He had ringworm back in April til about July and now he is clean of it…thank God. He is such a good cat and so sweet and loveable and very vocal with me, lol….we have conversations…lol All in all, so far, he is doing good. Take care, Millie
Thank you Kitty Connection, and especially Trish, for bringing Rudy into my life! Wendell the Westie has been my only dog for the past 7 years. I always contemplated bringing another dog into my home but was hesitant because Wendell is very attached to me and I felt that another dog would bring Wendell added stress. That fateful Friday night when I met Rudy, and learned about his unstable life
Dear Kitty Connection, we adopted “Precious” when she was 8 weeks old (we re-named her to Marshmallow – she is the grey/white one in the picture). It has been 3 months now and she has settled so well into her new home. She gets along with us as well as her older “brother – Turkey”! We also call her “squeaker lady” because we have yet hear her meow once, all
As soon as I opened the carrier, Paul, now called Maxwell, took off for a quick house tour. He returned a couple minutes later, and sprawled at my feet, purring. He was home. The household is still adjusting to him, though, as it’s been some years since our previous senior cats were interested in the living room mantle, the top of the TV cabinet, and other high level surfaces. Cinnamon
Hi, Marie, just wanted to let you know that one week in, the boys seem really happy here and we love them! This was a great picture Nat got of them sleeping earlier this week. All the best, Michaelann
Hi, we adopted Prospect at the end of August and I just wanted to let you know that he is doing great! It took a couple weeks for him to adjust to his new home, but now he loves it. He is very friendly, loves to be petted and purrs constantly. He is very well behaved and he likes to talk to us a lot. We love having him around
I just thought I’d give you an update on my adoption of the tortie cat with FIV named Lucy. When I first brought her home she was shy and withdrawn and hid in the bathroom for about a week. I considered this normal, knowing how cats can be about change, and she did seem a tad depressed, certainly because of her situation. I went away for a small vacation for
Sadie is starting to enjoy her new home. She’s still quite a nervous Nelly and runs away anytime I walk toward her, but once I sit down, she is a lover. She likes to bury her head in my armpit (lol) or lay her chin on my arm or shoulder. So I think she loves me. Charlene
Here is a picture of Gracie. She is such a great kitten. We love her so much. She became a member of the family so fast and everyone loves her so much. Just thought you would like to know how she is. Love, Kellie and Paul
Hi there! I just wanted to thank everyone and let people know how great Cheza (formally Cha Cha) is. My husband and I absolutely adore her, she is the sweetest, prettiest girl. A bit before we got her, we lost our cat, and Cheza has helped us, and cheered us up from our deep loss. Thanks again!
I adopted Brooks in June of 2007. I was fostering her and decided that she was going to become part of my family. Brooks was found under a porch and brought to a kill shelter when she was only a few weeks old. She spent almost a year there before Kitty Connection saved her. She was extremely skittish and would hide from me most of the day. After about 6
I’ve been meaning to tell a success story for sometime now, but I wanted to find a picture of how much our little Kaylee (who is sleeping in my arms) has brought to the house. It seems like everyone is happier with her arrival. She’s such an amazing part of the family and it wouldn’t have happened without her wonderful foster-mom who was willing to put in that extra effort
We adopted Sandy, a nine week old calico, from a Kitty Connection event at the Petsmart in Everett. She crawled into our arms and purred like crazy and we knew she was going to make a great addition to our family. Sandy loves her new home and her new “brother” Ollie (our somewhat skittish second kitty who Sandy has helped to come out of his shell). They are so cute
Here’s a picture of Tyler in his new home, and with his new “brother” Panchito. They play a LOT, which is great for both. We’ve renamed Tyler, his new name is Maui. Thanks! Ernst
Earlier this year, after sadly losing three of my dear cats (B.B. Kitty, Curly, and Moe) to cancer within the last few years, it was hard to imagine letting a new cat companion into my life. My only remaining cat, Larry, had lost his friend and siblings and I didn’t want him to feel lonely or sad, so I called Kitty Connection. Marie was great and suggested a few cats
We adopted 11 week-old “Doc” during the Medford TV adopt-a-thon in October, renamed her “Cruella” – though we usually call her “Rue” – and, over the course of a week, introduced her to our other cats 12 year old “Peep”, 5 year old “Molly” and 4 year old “Munkie.” As the attached photos – taken just two weeks after her arrival – show, Rue became part of the family very
Hello, we just wanted to send you an update on Peaches. She seems to love it here at the Maiocco house and has adjusted very well. She has been exploring her new home and napping in her basket. She is very lovable and enjoys playing with others. Thank you so much for allowing us the opportunity to adopt this lovable cat into our home. Best, The Maiocco’s
I adopted “Peachy” recently. I just wanted to let you know that she is adjusting very well here and she is truly becoming the Queen of the house! She loves to be on the bed or the couch so she can see us better. She is very playful but still a bit shy so she darts under the furniture a lot. I think it’s more a part of her play
Hi Marie, the little one is doing great! She is the boss around here. Thanks again, we’ll be in touch. Mike and Morgan
We adopted Izzy (now Sophie), just two weeks ago on Nov. 19. She is such a cutey. Getting to know her has been interesting and fun for the family, and we hope it’s been fun for Sophie as well. We discovered what her favorite toys are, her favorite foods, and observing her different moods. We’re sure there is more to come. Although she was very shy when she first arrived,
The friendly folks at Kitty Connection were very responsive in matching us with our new kitties, Ash and Croft (Ash is the light gray tiger). The foster parents took really good care of these little guys and everyone worked in concert to get us acquainted and up to speed with our furry new family members. We worked with other pet adoption agencies, but I have to say, they took weeks
Hi there, Trish, just wanted to give you an update on Soupie/Charley. We decided to change her name to Charley and she is doing very well with recognizing her new name. She is currently in beginner doggie classes. My partner Christina and I absolutely love her. She loves her rope bone and has recently discovered chicken basted raw hide bones. She has mastered sit, lay down and paw commands, but
Hi Tracy and Stacey, Taria now has a Chinese name Mimi, who we adopted yesterday at Woburn. She has already found our home her home and has gotten plenty of TLC. She is such a wonderful kitten and loves being petted. We all love her very much. Thank you so much for introducing her to us. Suyue and Betsy
Moonshadow (aka “Jake”) came from Medford as a reserved, but loving and shy cat. His companion, Aria (aka “Basil”) came from a shelter in New Hampshire after her family lost its home. They are our Thanksgiving gifts this year. They are spoiled, very curious, very friendly, and will no doubt demand their share of the Thanksgiving turkey from everyone at dinner! Carol
Dear Kitty Connection, just wanted to give you an update on our kittens, Nicholas (Omar) and Jake (Bodie), who we adopted on August 22, 2009. They are wonderful kittens, growing and healthy. They seem happy in their new home, are connected to Ben and I, and love one another. They are very affectionate and active cats. We are really glad we adopted both of them together because we think it
Hi guys, we adopted a black kitten named Lesley, from the Kitty Connection about two months ago. We had brought our older cat Pretzel to the event with us so he could pick out his new buddy. Lesley was his favorite! You could tell that they liked each other right away. We brought her home that night! We gave her a new name, Nightshade, to go with her glossy black
Hello! Fitch adjusted the moment she walked in the door! She took a look around and then proceeded to purr her heart out. She has her own bed at night in our room! Thanks again for helping her find her way to us. Cheers, Nathaniel
Hi, Crystal and Trish, I just wanted to check in and give you an update about Brew- he is doing great in his new home! Tonight is his second obedience class at the MSPCA and he is doing great with clicker rewards training. We are still working with pulling and jumping but hey that doesn’t come overnight. Yesterday he had a wellness visit and he is a healthy pup, he
Dear Kitty Connection, I wanted to thank you for sending me home with my new mommy! I have adapted VERY well! Mommy says I am the king of the castle…I like it when she says this. Mommy changed my name from Merrack to Bailey and I like it a lot better-I even run to mommy when she calls me! I spend my days lounging on my ‘Bailey blanket’ with my
Hi Debra, I just wanted to let you know Fuzzy (we renamed her Tabitha) is doing fantastic! She is so lovable and she is the best thing that came into our lives 🙂 She plays with her toys all the time loves to play!! Also loves to eat!!! She reminds me so much of our first baby Ginger:) and she loves to be held all the time just like a
Last fall we adopted Hurley (previously Jackson), a 4-6 year-old male, at a PetSmart adoption weekend. We are finally sending pictures and an update to let Kitty Connection know that he is doing great at his new home. We are a little obsessed with him. I never knew a cat could have so much personality — he is extremely playful and loves people. I am very pleased with the experience
Hi, Kelly, Al (Alcatraz) and Sha (Yahoo) are doing just wonderful in their new home. They both run and play so much. Al is the softest kitty I have ever had the pleasure of petting. And Sha keeps me laughing so much. She loves to roll on the floor and be petted and loved. Here they are to say Happy Christmas. Thank you so much for my new loves. Deb
Attached are a couple of pictures of Astro and Bailey (formerly Ming & Ting). I adopted them on Jan 2nd and it took the about half a day for them to totally adjust and take over my household. These brothers are about a year old and very sweet and playful. They follow me around like puppies and talk to me when they think I’m not paying enough attention to them.
Matt and I wanted to send you all some photos of Cambridge; he is doing very well with us and we love him to pieces! You were absolutely right when you described him as an “instigator” but you also described him as “the best cat you’ll ever have” and that is certainly true! We have taken to calling him “King Cambridge” since he decides when we get up in the
Hi, Karen and everyone at Kitty Connection! My husband and I adopted Chloe on a very cold Friday, February 7, 2009, at Pet Supply Plus. She was left at the pet store in a laundry hamper with her 7 month old son, Milo. We wanted to adopt a second kitty after our 7 1/2 year old female passed away from renal failure, leaving our male cat of the same age
Hi, I just wanted to take a moment and say thank you for the MOST FABULOUS family cat I have ever met. We adopted Jeffrey about 3 weeks ago. He is a love. The first night we had him home he nestled up on our bed for the night! He is very playful and absolutely loves our children (ages 9, 3 and 1). He is gentle and loving with them.
Hey guys! I adopted Tux from Kitty Connection in February, just a little more than a month ago, and already this apartment is more his apartment than mine. His first day home, he showed no signs of stress or fear, exploring every nook and cranny and immediately finding “his” spots. And just as much as he’s made the apartment his own, he’s adpoted me as much as I’ve adopted him.
Dharma had a tough time adjusting to her new home. She was very scared. I never knew where we would find her. She would find the smallest spots to hide in and her favorite is under the recliner. At first I was a little nervous because I was afraid she would get hurt, but she is smarter than most humans, she knows where to lay not to get hurt. It
Hello Marie and Karen, I wanted to update you girls on Heavenly (now called Rondo). He is still on the shy side, but feeling more comfortable each day. He loves to play with his toys and loves eating and sleeping. I wanted to thank you for answering all my questions I had at anytime. I want to thank you for rescuing Heavenly so that I could have a long happy
We adopted Sadie (formerly Joanna) in February at a Pet Smart adoption event. She instantly took to her new home and now we can’t imagine our lives without her! She follows us through the house and runs to the door when she hears it opening. Sadie loves playing with her toys and sleeping in sunny spots by the window. But at night, she sleeps at the foot of our bed
We adopted Bugsey and Whitey (now known as Brewskie) a few weeks ago, and we love them so much! We are so happy we were able to adopt the two together, because they like to play with one another. Both boys are absolute loves and follow us around the house, wherever we go. They talk to us when we get home, and love to jump in our laps for a
Hello, I just wanted to give you guys an update on Mr. Friendly. He adjusted very well into our home. He is a blessing to our family and he has become like my second child! He’s like a little baby who always wants to be held and carried around, he is such an amazing cat. Can you let Tanya (his former foster mother) know he is doing awesome in our
Dear Kitty Connection, Hello again! I’m writing to give you an update on Penny, who we adopted in February. Penny (we kept the name you gave her) has been a wonderful addition to our family. Aside from the very affectionate side that we saw when we first met her, she has become very interactive and playful, and is a joy to have around. We’ve even been able to take her
Hi All, a quick update about this cute little cat you let me adopt (Tyler is still debating this). Mister (aka Henry) is still very active. I can pick him up at times, even kiss him, but then he will start to bite. He is always so happy to see me when I come home. Last Tuesday he injured his left eye. The vet saw him Wednesday and said it
Hi, I wanted to write and thank you all for the lovely blessing in Chewy (formerly Yogi Bear)!. Chewy has been with me for almost 2 weeks, he is a great joy and is adapting well. Chewy’s foster dad did a great job of helping him get house trained (kudos to Carlton!). Chewy loves attention from EVERYONE! How can you not stop and pet him, such a handsome young man!
Hey all, I just wanted to give an update on Viggo (formerly Moe). He’s doing great in our new place. He’s affectionate, friendly, and very playful – the perfect cat! As soon as we took him home from Kitty Connection he was purring up a storm, settling in to his new home, and he hasn’t stopped since! No other cat I’ve met is as attention-loving and affectionate as Viggo! Thank
