Boomer just can’t believe he has lived at ARF for more than a year now. His birthday is Feb. 27, and even though he is almost 2 years old, he still is a playful, mischievous kitty. He has bravely said goodbye to his brothers and sisters, and has had to take matters into his own paws. So flipping the cat toys up in the air, scrambling to catch them and tossing them across the room keeps him busy. Let’s give Boomer his birthday wish to have his very own home and human.

Miss Sadie is about 3 years old, and is still ready for the ole cat and mouse game. She loves to gracefully move along, step by step, as you walk. She is not vocal, and is fine with other cats, kittens and small dogs. She has very good eating habits, and knows her manners with the litter box. She’s ready to move on to a forever home with her very own bed and dancing partner. Could that be you?

The Hemingway brothers, Ernie and Wilson, are 6-month-old polydactyl male brothers. Ernie, seen in the forefront, is the friendliest and has an extra surprise. He is polydactyl on all four paws. Wilson is a little shyer but is coming along. They are both friendly with other cats and are now becoming friendly with us humans. Come on in and get your kitty love.
