😻 Available for Adoption - Carol 😻

Carol is a sweet young cat looking for her forever home. Carol is a loyal, loving companion who just wants to find her person. She will follow you, love you, sleep with you and she even likes to have morning conversations with you while you get ready for your day. Carol is a “ skinny minnie” but she is starting to put some much needed weight on. The last of her beautiful kittens have been adopted and now it is her time to find her forever happiness. Carol is slightly shy at first, but it really doesn’t take her too long to warm up and once she does, she will steal your heart. Give Carol a chance, she is so worth it!

All our kitties are UTD on all vaccines, spayed/neutered, and go home with a Health Certificate. Email us at [email protected] with any questions, and learn more about adoption process and apply for Carol on our website https://www.coastalcatrescue.org/adopt. 

Please also share to help us spread the word about this sweet kitty who is so deserving of finding her forever home! 😻

Kitten Cam !! 😻 A volunteer left her phone on the bed while visiting Iris & her kittens, and the kittens managed to take some selfies of themselves. Excuse the blurriness, we thought this was too cute not to share. 😹😹😹

Iris is a very young mom, not even a year old! Her kittens are almost ready to go home so that means she is just about ready for her well-deserved forever home as well.

Here are some notes about Iris from a volunteer that has been visiting with her:
😻She is a lap cat!
😻She comes running when you call.
😻She is chatty & interactive, very sweet with a gentle spirit.
😻She is playful in a mischievous way - area rugs are in dissaray from her bouncing around!
😻She would get along with just about anyone but she definitely needs to be the only cat! While she is open to all people, she is a bit picky about other felines so she should be your one and only! She deserves all of the love and attention anyways!
😻And, now that she is done being a mom, she is taking the time to finally be a kitten!

If you have any questions or would be interested in adopting Iris, reach out at [email protected], and check out our adoption page to familiarize yourself with our process and apply https://www.coastalcatrescue.org/adopt.

Max is a playful and affectionate one year-old male cat. He has the wonderful combination of orange cat energy (IYKYK) and sweetness. He will greet you at the door with his adorable tail, rubbing up to you for lots of pets.

Max has a charming, mischievous side, still carrying the energy of a kitten, and you can often find him bouncing on toys or darting around in short bursts of energy! When he’s not being playful, he loves nothing more than snuggling up with you, often curling up next to you in bed, purring contentedly as he drifts off to sleep.

Max would do well in a family with children, and would also fit in with a laid-back dog!

Exciting news on the feline advocacy front in MA! 🎉🎉🎉

Great news for animals - two new protection laws go into effect today!

The first is the ban of cats from being declawed, except if medically necessary.

The second prohibits the sale, offer to sell, exchange, trade, barter, lease or transfer for permanent physical placement a dog or cat that is less than 8 weeks of age, AND states that dogs and cats cannot be sold, offered to sell, exchange, trade, barter, lease or transferred on any roadside, public right-of-way, parkway, median, park or other recreation area, flea market or other outdoor market or commercial or retail parking lot.

Thank you to everyone who helped with the passage of these laws. If you are interested in animal advocacy, join our MSPCA Animal Action Team Facebook group and by signing up at mspca.org/jointheteam.

Here are some cute pictures of our foster Clover and her precious kittens! 😻

Clover has quite the story! She was hit by a car and a good samaritan took her to Weymouth Landing Cat Clinic & Hotel. As they were checking Clover out, they realized she was very pregnant. Clover was stunned from her accident but otherwise appeared to be ok. In order to reduce her stress and ensure a safe delivery for her kittens, Clover needed a foster home sooner than later. Coastal Cat was called and we were able to take her in quickly and settle her in a warm safe space with a very seasoned foster mom. A little over a week later, she delivered 4 healthy kittens and they are doing well along with their mom. Thank you to WLCC for taking her in and making sure she was ok! No one came forward to claim Clover, so when her kittens are old enough, Clover and her family will be available for adoption! It takes a village!!

We’ll let you know when they’re available for adoption (and we’ll have better pictures - right now she likes being cozy with her babies and isn’t ready for her close-up), but please reach out to [email protected] with any questions in the meantime.
We are so grateful that we were able to help Clover and her babies. Every feline that comes into our care has a unique story and a unique set of needs. Please consider making a donation to Coastal Cat Rescue so we can continue doing this important work!

Lady Sophia loves playtime and these are her favorite toys! She is such a special girl and she deserves to have a forever home to play in - is it yours?!

😻Available for Adoption😻
Lady Sophia is a beautiful, ~2 year old medium long-haired, gray and white kitty with very expressive green eyes. She came to us pregnant, and all 6 of her little munchkins were adopted. She was a very attentive and loving mom, but she knows it’s now time to enjoy the single life and get her own pad! Since the kids left, she’s become very playful. She’ll zoom around and catch anything that rolls along the floor. Lady Sophia loves to be brushed and pampered. She is not quite a lap cat but her attitude is “it will come in time dahling.” She does enjoy lying against you and purring her contentment. If you’re looking for a cat who is playful and will be that ‘special companion’, please come and meet this lovely gal.

Coastal Cat Rescue kitties are spayed and up to date on all vaccines before adoption. If you want more information, please email us at [email protected] or fill out an application at www.coastalcatrescue.org/adopt.

😻Darcy Update!😻

We want to thank everyone who generously donated to the care of Darcy, a Coastal Cat kitty that was diagnosed with Feline Hyperesthesia Syndrome. As you know, Darcy has a severe case of FHS that led to a partial tail amputation, several vet visits, and lots of medications to counteract the pain and keep her calm while she was also sported a double collar because she kept getting the original cone off and further damaging her tail. We had dedicated volunteers taking shifts to spend time with her while she was healing in her foster home. Darcy, like many of our cats, became a fan favorite, as she provided more love and comfort to us than we gave to her. Our "shift patrol" to keep her more comfortable and engaged became more of a gift than a chore.

The goal was to wait it out and see if we could get Darcy through this disease with minimum harm to herself. The unfortunate part was, because there is so little known and studied about this syndrome, it could have taken us 6 months to 5 years to get her through. That is a tall order for a small, brand-new rescue with limited resources.

In mid-January, things took a turn for the worse for Darcy and she had to go back to the vet, yet again. We were devastated as we never wanted her to suffer more than live. We dropped her off at the vet, waiting for the call to lay out all the next steps. Dr. McKay-Dasent called, explaining what happened, which was not as bad as we thought which was a HUGE sigh of relief. The best part was, the news got better!!! The vet asked if she could adopt Darcy!! Like we said before, Darcy is an exceptional animal, she oozes love and everyone who meets her can see that instantly. We love our vet - shout out to Weymouth Landing Cat Clinic & Hotel - they not only provide exceptional care but every person there from the front desk to the veterinarians and everyone in between, is compassionate, kind and treats every cat that comes in as their own.

Darcy won the lottery that day, she will be loved and cared for by someone who can truly help her have the best life possible. No words can describe how grateful we are all here at CCR to have the support we have at our young age. We continue to learn and grow and be part of making our world just a little bit better. Darcy is now Emily, and she is doing really well. She still sports a cone, but she is being supported and loved, and she has the best family she could ask for.

Thank you again to EVERYONE who supported this sweet girl and helped get her to where she is! Board Member, Sara, used her video editing skills once again to put together a movie trailer to celebrate Darcy – we hope you enjoy!🍿🎥🍿🎬

😻Available for Adoption 😻

Bootsy is a beautiful 15-month-old calico/tiger. She’s a bit shy but once she knows you, comes right over and says “ hey, how about some pets for me!” She has bright green eyes and an affectionate, lovely demeanor. She enjoys being brushed and hanging out with her foster mom. Did we mention she’s a purring machine? She’s working on figuring out toys as her last home did not provide. She has asked for a quieter home where she can pounce her love onto a couple of lucky humans! Please come and meet this charming little gal. She’ll wrap you around her paws!!

😻Loving Adopter Needed 😻 Carol was a breeding cat, and she is barely one year old herself! Now that she is spayed and up to date on her vaccines, Carol is ready for her forever home. She is a lovely cat with beautiful green eyes who loves to sit on her foster mom’s lap and headbutt her for attention.

Carol can be shy at first as she didn’t have a great start at life, but once she trusts you, she really is a sweet girl, and her foster mom can attest to that! Carol would do best in a quiet home; her prior experiences have made her shy,but we believe that to be temporary as she adjusts to being a companion kitty and not a baby machine.

Due to some past trauma, Carol will need dental work in the next five months. CCR will cover this expense and have the care done at our vet in Weymouth.

Carol hasn’t had it easy, and we so desperately want her to find the loving home that she deserves. Please share to help us find an adopter or let us know if you think you’re the right fit!

Lucky Kevin has gone home! We’re thrilled for him and his new family. Despite being FIV+ (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus), this lovable boy is living proof that a positive diagnosis doesn’t change their ability to bring joy and love into a home. FIV+ felines can live long, happy lives when given proper care, and they thrive in homes where they are treated with the same love and respect as any other cat. Yay, Kevin! 😻
