Story
Toby here is about 6 years old now. He's been a part of my life throughout all of his, yet now we are in need of finding a new home for our little (actually quite big) buddy. Toby has spent a majority of his life as an indoor-outdoor cat, yet as he has gotten older, although he is still very nimble and quick, this will not be a requirement for his new owner. Not all places are suitable for an outdoor cat. What he is looking for is a loving provider who can allow Toby to have his own space as he prefers to keep to himself, and, like most cats, chooses specific times of when to show affection. If this boy seems like a good fit for your home, there's no harm in adding him to your possible adoptees.

Story
2 year old cat, born March 2022. Snowy is super sweet. Very calm, not very talkative. Loves to snuggle next to you or on your lap. Very mild mannered. She’s spayed and microchipped. She had all her shots until she was a year old. We have another cat and they get along well but they also have very different eating habits. Snowy has a big appetite and tends to eat very quickly which unfortunately leads to her throwing up right after. She will eat most kinds of cat food. She gets along with other cats but we prefer to place her somewhere where she doesn’t have to compete for food.

Story
MEET EMBER! Ember is a 13wk female kitten who was rescued with her 2 brothers from a rural shelter in NC. She is currently being fostered in CT with 3 large dogs and is a petite 2.5lbs so tiny for her age. Ember loves the company of her brother Emo and her foster sibling sisters and brother. They all enjoy play all day long so we are looking for a home with another cat she can share her day with. Ember is a typical kitten with kitten energy but because she was bottle fed, she is VERY affectionate with her people. Once she is done romping with her kitty sibling's she will find your lap to sleep in. Ember is up to date with all her vaccinations for her age group, she is FELV/FIV negative, and litter box trained. Whoever is approve to adopter will be expected to bring Ember to her spay appointment once she is old enough to be altered at the rescues expense. If you are interested in adopting this little petite girl please complete our adoption application www.fabsrescue.com/applications.
