MELVIN's Story

MEET MELVIN! I am looking for: -A quiet home with no young children -A home with another cat is required/recommended Melvin is working on her relationship with people. This kitten was born outside to a feral cat colony, so she is accustomed to spending time with other kitties, as opposed to human friends. Her transition to the shelter hasn't been the easiest so right now she is quite fearful. Melvin is looking for a quiet household with owners dedicated to helping her come out of her shell. If you have lots of patience to give a sweet, shy, kitty come in to our Boston shelter to meet Melvin! Melvin is currently up to date on all vaccinations, has been spayed, microchipped and been seen by our vet team. For more information on Melvin or any other animal currently residing at the Animal Rescue League of Boston, please call us at 617-426-9170. We welcome adopters from NH, RI, CT, and NY. However, we will be unable to facilitate same day adoptions due to state regulated paperwork requirements.
