Domestic Longhair kittens & cats in Hartford, Connecticut

Meet this handsome 6 ½-year-old male long-haired cat, who was transferred to us from another shelter. He’s a truly beautiful cat with a luxurious coat, but his time in a crate has made him a bit cage-aggressive. We believe he would be much more relaxed and comfortable in a home environment, where he can enjoy attention on his own terms and feel safe.Though he may be wary in his current situation, once he’s settled into a loving home, we’re confident he’ll blossom and show his true affectionate side. He’s looking for a patient, understanding adopter who can offer him the time and space he needs to adjust. If you’re ready to welcome this gorgeous boy into your life and give him the safe, calm environment he deserves, he could be the perfect companion for you!This cat is waiting for it's Forever Home!

She’s discovered her love for being petted, and her purrs are absolutely contagious—she purrs like a maniac when she’s getting the attention she deserves!Yeti does well with other cats but would do best with a companion who matches her chill energy.

Come meet 8-year-old Wilson, and you’ll quickly see he’s truly wondrous with his sleek, long black coat and soulful eyes! Recently surrendered along with his housemate Maisie due to a family member’s illness, Wilson’s previous owner is heartbroken to part with him. She describes him as initially shy but very lovable with the people he bonds with, much like many of us who take time to warm up to new faces. Wilson has a bit more confidence than his sister Maisie, which shows in his gentle, curious nature.Though he’s a bit reserved at first, once Wilson feels comfortable with someone, he’s all about affection—enjoying pets and snuggles from the humans he selects. His calm demeanor and sweet disposition make him an ideal companion for someone who appreciates a more laid-back, selective kitty.Wilson is understandably quite scared at the shelter after living in a loving home his entire life, and we would love to see him back in a home where he can relax and feel safe again. While Wilson and Maisie could be adopted together, they don’t have to be, and he would thrive in a home where he can receive all the love and attention he deserves.Come meet this stunning boy and see if you’re the human he’s been waiting for—Wilson is ready to find his forever home where he can shine again!This cat is waiting for it's Forever Home!
