Adopt A Cat From The Animal Center

SAMMY is a sweet and cuddly cat who loves to sit on laps and purr. He is a Seal Poin Siamese cat who was dumped behind a shopping plaza, and discovered by Animal Center officials peeking out from behind a tree during feeding rounds for one of the Animal Center’s managed feral cat colonies. He was hissing at the other cats and they were hissing at him. Sammy must have smelled the open cans of cat food in the volunteer’s car because the next thing the volunteer knew, Sammy was trying to get in. Other than being thin from surviving on his own, Sammy got a clean bill of health from the veterinarian. Sammy is approximately 3 years old, neutered, healthy, and current on vaccines.  

SALLY SOX is available for adoption from The Animal Center. While checking on on of the feral cat colonies, an Animal Center volunteer came across a pregnant Sally Sox wandering around a busy commercial district. Animal Center officials inquired with representatives from the local businesses to see if they were missing a cat resembling Sally Sox. Some had seen her and even fed her before, but no one knew who she belonged to. It is unknown why this sweet, people-friendly cat was on her own, but Sally Sox adores everyone she meets and seems grateful to no longer be on the streets. In late March,  Sally Sox gave birth to six kittens and tends to them day and night. Sally Sox won’t be ready for adoption until her kittens are weaned and she can be spayed (late May), but Animal Center officials are starting their search for a good home for Sally Sox now since adults take much longer to place than kittens.

To adopt, contact The Animal Center at info@theanimalcenter.org or 203-270-0228 (email preferred on weekends).
