Crystal is a very sweet cat who loves people and doesn't mind other cats. She has a limp but that does not bother her. She does not need any surgery.
Thank you for your interest in our pets!

Events
NEAR, Inc. has been fortunate to have Kitty Connection of Medford sponsoring adoption events for us. We are a very small rescue without a shelter and have been able to concentrate more recently with the help of Kitty Connection and other rescues on low cost spay/neuter assistance.
Who We Are
We are a non-profit organization and are 501 (c)(3) tax exempt. We are the only non-profit organization in Middleboro that helps homeless animals find loving homes and maintain and support feral cats by providing spay, neuter, return, shelter, food and necessary vet care. We have successfully performed TNR (trap, neuter and return) of various feral cat colonies in Middleboro, Carver, Rochester and Bridgewater.
We do not have a shelter and all our volunteers have other full-time jobs. Our work is mainly performed through foster care. We are always looking for good caring people to help us foster homeless animals until they can find their forever homes. Please contact us if you would like more information on our Foster Care Program.
We do not advocate breeders of any kind. As long as cats and dogs are euthanized due to space and resources, no cat and dog should be born (regardless if it is for the love of the breed, income increase, etc.).
