Because life is better with a cat on your lap!
Happy tails of our friends in their furever homes!
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
Hi, I just wanted to send a picture of Bailey (formerly Bamboo) with his sister, Bella. They get along very well and are beginning to spend lots of time playing together. Bailey seems to have recovered from a nasty mouth/gum infection. He hated his medication, but I know he feels alot better! He’s also been to the groomers and loves his lion cut! We love him and he has adjusted
Hello, just wanted to let you know that Jimbo is loving life with us. We adopted him back in February (kept the name) and though it was hard to choose I can’t believe that we picked the absolute best cat. He has a such great personality. Thanks again, Irene
Hi, Kitty Connection, I want to tell you what a delight it is to have Samantha as a part of my family. She has such a fun personality — she always looks for a game of tag or wants to wrestle with my hand as I tickle her here and there! — and is so very loving. She loves to have her ears rubbed and enjoys a good brushing as
I just want to let you know the kittens are doing GREAT! We love them so much. My daughter was so surprised and happy, she wakes up every morning and says “I am the luckiest girl in the world”. It is hard to get pictures of them when they are awake, cause they are so playful and active. They have adjusted unbelievable well. Again thank you! Siobhán
Tigger, formally Jaclyn, is now getting along a little better with his big brother Jasper. They have been together a little over a week now. Jannaa
Dominic is a very handsome grey and white green eyed boy. His nose is half black and half white. He has beautiful white paws. And he is FIV+. I adopted Dom in 2005. I was reassured by what Marie told me about incorporating an FIV+ cat into the household and also solicited opinions from other cat lover friends and my vet. Everyone said it is no problem. And it hasn’t
He’s doing great. There was no adjustment or hiding period which surprised us. As soon as he came out of of the cat carrier he was all over us and jumping up and down on the furniture, rolling around everywhere. Like he knew it was home. He loves the kitty condo we got him. It has 3 levels (yes, I’m afraid he is already spoiled lol) He is the sweetest,
We decided we’d like to adopt a little kitten as a great new addition to our family. We love animals and have a six year old bunny rabbit. While we would also like to get a puppy, we thought a kitten would be an easier introduction to a home with a resident rabbit (Rhudy, the resident rabbit!). My husband has had cats as pets all his life, but I was
We wanted to thank you for taking care of Dib and Gaz (formerly Samantha and Topperina) and for matching us up with them. They are so playful and loving. Dib loves to stretch all the way out on his back and let us rub his belly – after a few minutes he will fall asleep like that. Gaz loves to snuggle up at my feet at night. And they both
Hey there! So, it’s been over 2 months since I adopted Boots and Jack (Formerly Sox and Cracker Jax), and they have settled in like brothers. They LOVE to roll around play-fighting, and then when they get tired of that, they’ll groom each other. Then they’ll tousle some more, then groom, and so on. It’s adorable! They are seriously the best cats I could have found. They sleep with me
It has only been one week since we adopted Oscar (previously O.J. _ his middle name is Jones so the initials still work) and we already feel like he is part of our family. He was very stressed while waiting to be adopted because he doesn’t feel comfortable around other cats, and he was hiding in a corner, but as soon as we got him to our apartment he was
Hi Ronny! Momo is doing amazing. He is sitting right next to me watching the game as we speak 🙂 I couldn’t have asked for a better cat! Being a new cat mom I drove him crazy by always calling his name and checking in on him, but he’s a very confident cat on his own. He comes when he’s called, comes to bed with me when it’s bedtime, and greets all
Hi Elizabeth, Wilbur is doing great! He seems to be very healthy and happy. We think adopting him was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. I’ve attached a recent picture of him for you to see 🙂 Thank you so much for all that you guys do! Thanks, Abby
 Hi Marie (and JJ), I wanted to send you an update/success story about Jamaica, the shy kitty that we adopted on Aug. 8. Read on for good news! When we adopted her, Jamaica (who goes by Jams) was a very shy kitty who preferred other cats to humans. She spent her first couple of days hiding under the very small space underneath our dresser, sometimes eating the treats we
Thought you might like to see Tobin and Jade hanging out. 🙂 They’re doing wonderful! They’re such good friends. I couldn’t ask for better compatibility. They play together, sleep together, call for each other. They even share toys by taking turns. It’s kind of hilarious. They really have such a wonderful dynamic. Thank you, KC! (Especially Marie.) Echo
Hi Marie, thanks for your response. Attached are a couple photos of Piglet (tiger) along with her best friend Battle Cat (calico). The people at Kitty Connection went out of the way to help find the right cat for us. We asked for an affectionate cat and sure got one! She loves being petted, and having her tummy rubbed. She likes to run around the house making little chirping noises,
Update on Mama Mia “Cloudy,” she is doing fantastic. She has come a long way, she doesn’t hide anymore and roams around the house with no worries. We still can’t pet her unless she’s eating her breakfast but she loves to play. The her and Papa Gino are still best friends too! I forgot to mention she adores my boyfriend. She will jump on the couch and lie down with
Hi Elizabeth, Marie, and Sharon – we just wanted to give you an update on the settling in process with the new kitten. Ollie hissed and was pretty mad at all of us for a couple days but soon they settled right in and got used to each other, and now one is chasing the other around pretty constantly. We think she enjoys the constant companionship and having an equal
