Honey's Story

Three-year-old Honey is an extra-playful lovebug with a big personality! She adores attention from humans and gets along well with cats, dogs, and kids. Honey loves being pet and showered with affection, but after a few minutes of being held she’s ready to wiggle free and get back to playtime—she has lots of energy to burn! Confident and outgoing, Honey has a dominant streak and a healthy appetite (she’s not shy about stealing food), so she does best with people who appreciate her bold, queen-like personality. She must be adopted with another cat, though she is not bonded with Chrome. After being left behind by her previous owner, Honey is thriving in foster care and ready for her forever home—one where she’ll be loved, entertained, and treated like the royalty she knows she is. Could that be you? If you are interested in adopting Honey, please fill out our adoption application here https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/CCRN/Cat

The Cat Collective Rescue NY's Adoption Policy

All adopters complete an application, a short interview, a home check (virtual or in-person), and references so we can ensure the best possible match for both the cat and the family. We carefully consider household dynamics — including other pets, children, lifestyle, and experience — to help make placements that are safe, successful, and lasting. Adoption is a lifelong commitment (often 15–20 years), and if a match doesn’t work out, the cat must be returned to our rescue — never rehomed independently or surrendered elsewhere. Declawing is not permitted. The adoption fee helps cover spay/neuter, vaccinations, testing, microchipping, and medical care; it is a contribution toward the cat’s care, not a purchase. We believe normal cat behaviors like scratching, climbing, and adjustment periods are part of the journey, and we’re here to support you — including check-ins after adoption to help ensure a smooth transition.
