Hi! I’m Radish (241544)!

I am a 5-year-old neutered male domestic short hair. I was brought to the shelter because my previous owner was no longer able to care for me. I am a bit of a shy boy who needs an understanding owner who has time and patience to care for me.

Hi, I’m Mina! I’m a 1-year-old, long-haired beauty with a gentle heart and an old soul.

My story began beneath a house in North Reading, where I was rescued just two days before giving birth to my three precious babies. I spent my first chapter being a mommy, making sure my little ones were safe and loved. Now that they’ve all found their forever homes, I’m hoping it’s finally my turn.

I’m a quiet, gentle girl who enjoys watching birds, being brushed, and indulging in my favorite wet treats. I get along with calm cats and respectful children, and I’m learning to share my space with a big dog, too. I dream of a peaceful home where I can curl up, feel safe, and finally be someone’s baby instead of taking care of my own. I’m fully vetted and ready for my forever family.

My babies got their happy endings. Could you help me find mine?

Hi, I’m Opie! I’m a petite little sweetheart, somewhere between 1 and 3 years old, with a big personality and the cutest squeaky meow.

My story began at Opportunity House, where I was found as a tiny kitten with open wounds on my front legs. Thankfully, I was rescued, given the care I needed, and made a full recovery. Now I’m healthy, happy, and ready for a forever family of my very own.

I love playing, cuddling, eating, and, most importantly, being the center of attention. I’m fully vetted and get along well with other cats and children, too.

I’ve come a long way from that little injured kitten. Now all I’m missing is someone to love me forever. Could that someone be you?

Hi, I’m Gracie! I’m 2 years old, and I’ve already done the whole motherhood thing, raised my babies, and given them all my love. Now I’m hoping to find someone who will give a little of that love back to me.

I’m a laid-back sweetheart who loves belly rubs, being brushed, and giving the best little headbutts. I’ll happily curl up beside you for some quiet time, but don’t be fooled… I’ve still got some zoomies left in me.

After sharing so much of myself as a mama, I’m ready to be someone’s one and only. No other pets, please. Just me, my humans, and all the love we can share. I’m fully vetted and ready for my forever home.

I’ve spent so much of my life being needed. Now I just want to be wanted. Could I be your girl?
