Successful Adoption Stories

We have an #adoptionupdate from Arlo who adopted Archduke aka Arch, Archie, Duke, Ducky, Handsome, Bubba, Buddy, etc. this past September! Arlo originally was looking for a smaller, black, girl cat to match their other cat, baby Xena. However, when Arlo walked out of one of the rooms at the shelter, Archie was sitting there. He chirped, crawled into Arlo’s lap, and laid there for 10 minutes. Arlo immediately knew he was the right kitty.

“He’s doing great! He settled in almost immediately and is so happy. Archduke’s favorite places to sleep are on one of the cat beds throughout the house or especially on me or anyone who stops by! His favorite toys are those little mice, string toys (with feathers specifically), and anything big enough for him to bite and kick at the same time.

“Something that surprised me (in an awesome way!) is that he’s a shoulder cat! He loves to be held and carried around as I’m moving throughout the house. He’s the sweetest, cuddliest, boy and I’m very grateful for the staff at Cat Care Society for not only helping me find him, but for taking amazing care of him! <3”

We appreciate you, Arlo, for giving Archduke such a loving home!

We have an #adoptionupdate from Haley who adopted Bartholomew (now Finn) this past July! Haley came to Cat Care Society hoping to find a cat that was comfortable around their partner’s wheelchair and who was playful!

“Finn adjusted quickly to his new home and took over my partner’s wheelchair right away claiming it as his own!

“Finn loves to fetch his watermelon toy, hang out in his hammock, and be carried around on my partner’s lap. He truly acts like a small baby who wants to be carried around all day long.

“We didn’t know how beautiful his coat was when we adopted him. His fur had been shaved down because of mats. As soon as it grew back, we saw how regal he was. His coat is truly so stunning!”

We have an #adoptionupdate from Julie who adopted Medi (now Louie) in September 2023! Since he is a gray and white tuxedo cat, he looks a little bit like a French waiter. Julie was drawn to Louie because he looks a lot like one of her previous cats.

“When we first brought Louis home, he spent a lot of time hiding, only coming out briefly to eat and use his litter box. After a couple of days, he was feeling more safe and his curiosity and gentle social nature got the better of him, and he started coming out to explore. Now he loves to run around the house and jump up to high look-outs. He can be very sweet and cuddly. He loves to be brushed and get tummy rubs.

“Louie has been very healthy. He still eats small portions of Science Diet food (dispensed by an electronic feeder) and a little wet food in the evenings. We love Louie so much!”

We have an #adoptionupdate from Sarah who adopted King Arthur aka Arty this past September!  Sarah saw Arty online  and immediately knew she wanted to adopt him. He’s 13, had been in the shelter since January, and is diabetic. Sarah knew he had to come home with her!

“Arty is doing great! He has settled in very well. Other than the occasional spat with his big brother, Buddy, things are blissful. He’s such a goofball and very chatty. He likes to talk to the walls at 3am more than any other time of day. He’s a big loafer — always loafing near mom. He loooves the catio and usually hangs out in the sun during the day.

“Arty has been great about getting his insulin and we’re always ready for food promptly at 8 am and 8 pm. He does not let me forget it!

“He’s such a goon. I hope he loves his very spoiled life. What the boys want, the boys get.”

Arty was a former member of the Lonely Hearts Club at CCS. These cats typically need some extra help finding their new home. They may be older, not as eye-catching, have specific medical needs, or just haven’t found a loving family yet. They may have been overlooked in the past, but we believe they can bring so much love to someone’s life, and Arty is an excellent example of that!

We have an #adoptionupdate from Dayana who adopted Mozart (now Echo) this past August! Dayana came to CCS looking for a gray cat that had medium/longer hair.

“He has adjusted wonderfully to his new home and adapted great to his new pet siblings.

“He loves to play fetch and play with our dog, he loves to cuddle us humans and loves to explore new spaces.”

We have an #adoptionupdate from Elizabeth who adopted Kato (now Winslow) in September! Elizabeth came in to pet the cats without a specific one in mind and never expected to fall in love with one right away. Kato/Winslow was super friendly and loved to roll around for belly loves. It was love at first sight!

“He got a kitty cold not too long after the move but he’s been starting to recover from it quite well.

“He is incredibly friendly. A bit shy when new people come over but he quickly warms up and demands cuddles. He loves to sleep next to me at night, and has been since I got him. He loves playing with any form of string. He also purrs and makes air biscuits when he’s happy.

“He is a very good and very happy boy. Everyone loves him!”

We have an #adoptionupdate from Mattilda and Zach who adopted Lottie (now Minerva Moon or Minni) in August! They weren’t searching for a specific cat. Earlier this year, they had unexpectedly lost their senior tortie to bladder cancer. Since then, they kept checking the Cat Care Society page and visiting us, hoping to find their perfect new fur baby. After some time, they saw Minni online, went to meet her, and instantly knew she was the one!

“It took a little bit to get Minni to come out from under the bed and feel comfortable exploring the whole house but after a couple of weeks it’s like she’s always been here!

“Minni is doing exceptionally well. She’s gained some weight, her fur is shiny and soft, and you can just see how happy she is. She’s a great eater and LOVES her wet food treats. She loves her human brother (my step son) and is obsessed with playing with all of her mouse toys! Minni snuggles up and sleeps with us every night.

“After losing our last kitty so suddenly I never thought we would be this happy again. Minerva Moon is truly the most loving cat I’ve ever seen in my life. All she wants is cuddles and kisses and to love and be loved. I truly believe our last cat sent her to us. We are so glad we found her and she picked us. Thank you Cat Care Society!”
