Almost Home for Cats
Who We Are
We are NOT a shelter.
We are a small group of concerned animal lovers who have rescued stray, abandoned and homeless felines for close to 20 years. Our animals live cage free in our foster homes, intermingling with our own personal pets, dogs included. 98% of the felines we have placed would not have survived if we had not rescued them. Many of the felines we take in are in a critical health situation, consequently some may stay with us months before they are ready for adoption. The cost to accomplish this is, as you can imagine, very high. This does not deter our efforts since our mission is to provide the best possible care and to provide an animal with the best possible chance of survival and ultimately to reside in the best possible home.
You can help us achieve our goal by adopting from us!
Adopting a friend
Our requirements vary depending on the needs of our animals. Some cats need the companionship of other felines to feel less stressed during their lifetime, some need to be alone. We will spend a great deal of time discussing your home life to see if it's compatible with the necessities of the feline you wish to adopt. Remember, our felines live with us so we know what personality type best fits their future lifestyle.
Adoption fees vary depending on each animal.
What Else We Do
We manage several feral colonies in the Middlesex County area, including feeding, spay, neuter and release. Occasionally we are able to place some felines we trap/fix from these colonies, which helps to reduce our cost to continue feeding. We receive no funds for this, these are all out of pocket expenses.
Since we also rescue critical care animals, we have several felines with unique disabilities, which need special care and homes. This can range from blindness to limb deformity to life long diseases. These animals will contine to live with us permanently if no homes are found. We do not put down any animal due to these conditions. If interested, please inquire as to whether there are any special needs animals available for adoption.
