Because life is better with a cat on your lap!
Happy tails of our friends in their furever homes!
Hi Sam, Marylin is doing fine. She has 1400 sq. feet so she has a lot of room to roam. Right now she will let me pat her but she hasn’t let me hold her yet however, earlier this morning she keeps look at me and she started to talk back to me so I don’t think it will be to much longer. I have been home all day sense
My sweet Caroline came to me as Superwoman from Kitty Connection. She always looked sweet but was very scared. She immediately took to her new brothers and sister (Gizmo, Cloey and Daphne) and they accepted her right away! But as far as she was concerned she didn’t want to be touched or held by us humans! Each day I would just sit and talk to her and try to pet
Gumdrop was adopted over 3 years ago. She was very sick and skinny after her ordeal and we wanted to give her a chance to have a home and recover getting lots of love. She is the apple of our eyes and we couldn’t think of life without her. She is a full bodied lady now who loves to be petted, loved and cuddled. She is a Diva enjoying all
Hello again, I hope you are both doing well. Better late than never!. Here are some pics of our beloved Willow (aka Parcheesi)! She has truly become one of the family. Her personality is still developing and every day she discovers something new! Here favorite things to do are eat and sleep! Her favorite places to sleep are my daughter Grace’s doll bed, the kitty bed we bought her, all
Hi Marie, I just want to share this photo of Bingo (now called Timtam) with our other cat, Kermit. They are getting along really well so far – a little bit of wrestling and chasing, but nothing aggressive. They like to sit together all the time and often sleep together at our feet at night. I even found him grooming Kermit the other day. He’s such a love! Just wanted
I am the adoptive mom of a dog, previously on your site, who was formerly known as “Bruno” (his name is “Diesel” now). He is so smart, and took to obedience training very quickly and easily. He is a great running partner, very social, and now very well behaved. In fact, I plan to register him with the Canine Good Citizen’s association so that we can do some in-patient therapy
A few months ago my roommate and I adopted Eclaire, a very skittish and scared little kitty. After a weeks of hiding and cuddling with the fleece blanket we gave her under a bed, kitty started to come out of her shell…she is incredibly curious, fun, and sweet. She makes us laugh every day. Some snapshots of her progress are attached. Thank you for allowing us to have this joy
Hi Marie, my husband told me that you called to see how Henry is doing. It’s been a year today that we got to take him home. We decided that we’d use this date as his birthday. He’s such a great dog, we love him so much. He became a big part of this family fast. We had an invisible fence installed and that was well worth the cost. We
Dear Dawn, Tostito’s name is now Greta. She’s doing great…gets along well with our dog, very cuddly, happy to be carried around (gently) by our daughters and basically always where the people are. (Right now sleeping in my lap as I work.) Best, Elizabeth
We adopted Marley in June 2010. She was a 13 week old kitten with long hair and double paws. We had called Kitty Connection asking for a kitten with double paws and we were delighted when they called us back! We brought her home and by the end of the first day she had explored our house and found a cozy spot to curl up…on my 5 year old daughter’s
Hi Marie, I hope this email finds you well! I wanted to send you a quick update on Nigel. He is doing incredibly well and is such a joy to have. I changed his name to Cass, and he spends his days watching birds out the window, snuggling in an easy chair while wrapped up in a Red Sox fleece and keeping me company while I study for the bar
Hello! We wanted to let you know how happy we are to have Sir Winston as part of our family. He has quickly become comfortable in his new home and we were so happy to find that he was litter trained and uses the scratch pad rather than our new sofa! Sir Winston’s personality is hilariously diverse. He is a snuggle-bug, always keeping a gigantic paw on us when he
Hi, we renamed the kitten Jewel, she’s doing great. She’s best friends with our cat Sage, they play and cuddle all day! Savannah and Marsa
Hi Stacey, I just wanted to let you know all is well here. The three babies are healthy and happy; Dot is alternating between playing with them like she’s a kitten and washing them like she’s their mother. Thank you again for all your help and for the wonderful work that all of you at Kitty Connection do! Happy Thanksgiving! Jean & Julie
Dear Kitty Connection, my boyfriend and I adopted a cat (Pevin, who we named Lola) in the beginning of the year. We have gotten to spend eight precious months with her so far, and we couldn’t be more smitten. I am attaching some pictures of Lola that I meant to send along a long time ago. Thank you so much for your good work. I hope that all families get
Here is a picture of Aleaha. She is an amazing, lovable, playful cat and and she loves when you rub her tummy. She is very loved and cared for!
Dear KC Staff, I just wanted to send you a photo and update on Gorgonzola, known as “Zola.” She started life at Kitty Connection as “Magpie” but seems quite content to be named after a food since she is such a “chow hound!” She is into everything and it is a part-time job keeping her away from nightly people-supper. She and her housemate cat, Rigatoni, get along well and have
Hi All, just to let you know Petey is doing great, loves his buddy Pauly, our two females and our dog . We got Petey to hang out with our youngest of 3 females and then unexpectedly lost one of our other girls to a brain tumor. Not wanting to have an odd number of kitties we came across Pauly who was a couple of months younger than Petey. Worked
Hi Marie and Stacy, here are pictures of Szchezuan, whom I’ve renamed ‘Little Girl.’ She’s my pretty, sweet Little Girl! She loves to purr and cuddle, and her favorite spots are on the couch or on the chenille blanket on the bed. Also, when I come home at night, she rushes to the door to meet me. It’s a great way to come home! Thanks for making this adoption happen.
Hi, here are some pictures of Prime Rib, thought you might like to see how he is doing. We named him Samson. He is the best thing for my mom. She absolutely loves him and so do I. He is quite the character and makes us laugh a lot and he keeps my mom company until I get home, then he follows me around the rest of the night. He’s
Hi, we are the proud to have “Lillian” as a new family member! She has fit into our family so well! She has a wonderful personality and we could not imagine life without her now. Our family has my husband and I along with five children in the age range of 17 – 8 years. We also have 2 guinea pigs. Here is a picture of our Success Story!
Hi Lisa – I finally got around to uploading pictures from my camera and thought I’d send along an update on Ryan. He’s WONDERFUL. As you can tell from the pics he’s doing fine. Dec 19, my husband’s aunt passed away (95yrs old). She’d adopted Lester (orange cat) 2 years previously and the agreement was if anything happened to her we’d take Lester. Well, he’s 26 lbs and came to
Hi Karen, I sent you pictures of Batman. He is doing great and I think he’s a happy pooch. I know I’m a happy owner and am thoroughly enjoying him. He’s got a look that just melts you. Jocelyn and he are best of buddies. I told you it wouldn’t be long before the 2 of them would be sleeping together on the same bed. He learned quickly the Dunkin
Hi Marie, I wanted to send you a picture of Henry to let you see how great he’s doing. Actually both he and Hallie are doing wonderfully and I just love having them around. I’m trying to get some good pics of both of them together and I will send them when I do. I just wanted to thank you so much for bringing them into my life and I’m
Marie, York is doing great and has been a blast to have around. It is amazing how curious he is about everything, and despite my trying to get him to play with toy mice and balls, he prefers a crumpled up piece of paper to bat around. Thanks again for your help with adopting him. Matt
Hi Karen, Georgie is adjusting just great. Thanks to you and Marie for getting him to me. Paul
Hi Karen, remember this gal? As you can see, she is doing awesome! Extremely obedient. Hope all is well with you. Vincent
Penny has brightened my life. She is my best friend and we are both the happiest when we do things together. She is an awesome friend, loving, gentle, playful and amazingly funny. She has brought joy and laughter into my home and is hoping one day that Tommy and Humphrey the cats will love her as much as I do. Marie
Hi Kelly, well I finally got a chance to take pictures of Emma. She’s doing great. She is really a sweetheart, and she’s started to make friends with the other kitties. In a couple of the pictures she’s hanging out with her brother Max. Take care, Deirdre
Hi Stacie, I just thought you would like to see a picture of my make-up consultant. He thinks the sink is his private throne when I am doing hair and make-up. He is very settled and very happy. He plays with Nittany all the time and has taken over the house. Autumn
This is an updated picture of Oreo, the kitten my friend adopted a few weeks ago. This is her picture from her visit to the vet in her carrier. She is happy and doing well. Her Mom calls her a “Diva” and is very spoiled. I thought a nice “Happy Ending, New Beginning” update for the website. 🙂
Hello, I just wanted to pass along a little update and some pictures! Mushroom is doing well, he’s incredibly fast! All yesterday and the night we got him he kept dashing out the bedroom door, which put him at meeting our other cat face-to-face a lot sooner than I’d planned. While Momo showed some resistance at first that kept me nervous, he very quickly softened and has now fallen for
Thank you for allowing me to take home and love the most wonderful boy in the world! “Pedi” (formerly Sligo), was named after our favorite Sox player, Dustin Pedroia. He is a handful, but he is completely worth it! He has his own play area and a fantastic dog walker who comes to play with him twice a day while I am at work…just a bit spoiled. He has a
Hi Marie, Trevor is doing great! He adjusted to his new home very quickly – didn’t hide or act scared or anything. He is very curious and friendly. He and our other cat, Madeleine, are slowly getting along better. They rough play a lot, and while Maddie isn’t always happy about it, Trevor seems to be having a great time! They both sleep together on the bed at night with
We adopted Gwen from Kitty Connection three years ago. She is definitely a cat that doesn’t ‘show well’ for potential adoptive parents. She was not particularly friendly and her past abuse made her very distrusting of people. Sadly, Gwen still shows physical signs of her past abuse – her tail still has a large bump and is slightly crooked from where it was broken. It’s taken time, but Gwen now
Hi everyone at Kitty Connection, these two beauties (formerly Creme and Brulee) are doing great and are a joy to have. It was NOT my intention to adopt 2 cats when I went to the adoption day in Stoneham but being unable to decide which kitten to take …someone said “take both”….yikes, I have two 14 yr old cats at home and I had all the fears that go with
Hi Marie, I just wanted to send you a quick update on the beautiful muted calico kitten you helped me adopt about a month ago. I renamed her Stella (from Tyra) because she has a little too much cat-titude and needed a spunkier name. Now I know that I have always been an animal lover, but even I couldn’t imagine how much I would fall in love with this kitty.
Kitty Connection, here is a new picture of Kiki (Now Cali) on Christmas day. She is a very happy cat and loves her new home! Thank you for providing us with such a beautiful kitty! Dave
Noir has a new name, Lucy. She is doing great! I think she really likes her new home and she seems to be adjusting well…eating a healthy amount, playing with her new toys and snuggling on the couch with her new parents. She is a sweet girl! I have taken a lot of pictures and will send them once I upload them to my computer. Best, Stacey
Hi Stacey, I wanted to send you an update and some pictures of the kittens we adopted from you back in June, Merry and Billy Rica! I’ve been meaning to write for ages, so I’m sorry this is long overdue. I did give them new names — Ollie (formerly Merry) and George (Billy Rica), although I’m sure they don’t know their names since we’re always calling them sweetie, angel, babe,
Hi Stacey, we adopted two lovely kittens from you at the end of August. As you can see from the attached picture, they are happily bonded to each other and to us (they’re curled up in my lap). The names you gave them were Lexus (grey/white girl, aka Emily) and Gemini (all-white boy, aka Virgil). They are both doing very well. They chase each other around the house like mad
Hi Karen, I am writing to give you an update on Sandy, who I adopted about a month ago from Kitty Connection. She is doing great. She has had very few accidents in the house and walks great on a leash. When I first picked her up she was very skinny but she has already gained some weight and looks much healthier. I have been bringing her to Playful Paws
We adopted Symphony last week, and we couldn’t be happier. We’ve since renamed her Linus after Charlie Brown’s best friend. She is more than we could have asked for! Linus loves to play and cuddle. She sleeps at our feet and follows us around the house. When we pet her, she rolls onto her back so we can rub her soft little belly. We’re so in love with her! Linus
Here is another success story ~ a furry baby we adopted from you, Blinker now named Rudy. He is a lovable 8 month old male kitty who lives with his brother whom we adopted from you 2 years ago, Montgomery, now named Sammy. Just love how talkative and lovable this baby is, he is a Mama’s boy, loves to follow me everywhere and cries if he can’t see me. Full
When we first met this little guy called Cookie Dough at 12 weeks old, he walked right into our cat carrier. We figured he was the one and took him home — which was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. We’ve renamed him Sketch for his black markings and little white paws that look like sneakers or Sketchers. He’s very affectionate and loves to play, especially fetch! He’ll
Hi Kellyanne, my name is Jaime and I adopted Brownie with my partner in May from Kitty Connection at PetSmart in Everett. Since then we have changed her name to Sasha. I wanted to share some pictures of her with you. She has gotten a lot bigger since we adopted her and she now has a little brother who she is very fond of. They are the total opposite, while
Hi Marie! This email is long overdue. I came in with my sister in law about 8 months ago and we adopted a large Maine Coon cat named Doug that a lady had found in Medford. I know when we picked him up the person who found him waited for us and because we were late she was unable to meet us. I just wanted to send you an email
Hi Stacey, I wanted to give you an update on the kitten (formerly Neroli). We haven’t officially decided on what we’re going to name him yet but we’ll let you know as soon as we do. I was worried he would be scared when he got to my apartment for the first time since he didn’t really seem to like the car ride at all. But he walked right out
Hi Stacey, I just wanted to send along some pictures and let you know that Malcolm is loving it here. He adjusted within days and he thinks he owns the place…just look at him trying to get into the fridge. He continues to get more and more mischievous, but he keeps us entertained! I can’t imagine my apartment without him!! Thank you so much! Ami
Hi Lisa & Karen – Wanted to update you on how Ryan is doing….WONDERFUL!!!!! He stayed in the den, his safe room, until Tuesday @ 6PM. We’d brought Matthew in a couple of times, holding him of course, so they each knew another cat was in the house. We’d hold the door to the den open a crack so they each could sniff the other. When he came out on
