My name is Pumpkin Martini - β€œTini” for short! πŸŽƒ 🍸 I may be tiny, but I sure am sassy and mighty!

I'm playful, energetic and 100% kitten!!! 😼 After all I was just born in July so I'm still a baby. I will talk your ear off and run circles around everyone! But then, I like to settle in for long naps in a sunny window. πŸͺŸ

Mealtime is serious business! 🐟 If you are even a minute late, I'll definitely let you know. 😹 I'm a girl who loves her foodβ€”and honestly, who can blame me?

I am still trying to figure this big world 🌎 which means I'm not always in the mood for snuggles, but I will never turn down a good butt scratch. 😻 I'm confident that I'll be the BEST pet and before you know it, with your love and patience I'll be your best friend! πŸ’ž

🀭 Oh, and forget the expensive toys because I love to play inside empty boxes! πŸ“¦

I'd love a kitty friend and I'm sure dogs would be fine as long as you promise they will be nice to me!

Do you want to adopt me and love me forever & ever???

Meet Woody!
Special Skills: Flopping dramatically, biscuit-making enthusiast, professional attention-seeker.

Woody is a gentle, goofy, heart-melting Siamese boy who simply adores being loved.

His signature move is a full belly flopβ€”right at your feetβ€”just to let you know it’s time for pets. And if you dare hesitate? Woody will reach out with a soft paw tap to remind you that affection is, in fact, mandatory.

Biscuit-making is his passion (some might even call it his craft). Whether he’s cozy on a blanket or nestled beside you, this sweet boy kneads away with total dedication and a happy little purr.

Woody started life as a community cat with a devoted caretaker who, sadly, had to move away. Despite that, he has never lost his warm, social nature.

He LOVES other cats, is wonderful with dogs, and is gentle and patient with kids. He’s the kind of cat who makes every room feel softer and every moment feel sweeter.

If you’re looking for a cuddly, playful, affectionate companion who will greet you with big eyes and an even bigger heart,

Woody is ready to melt right into your life. Woody can’t wait to find his forever homeβ€”could it be with you? πŸΎπŸ’™

If a πŸ“Έ is worth 1000 words, then be sure to go to the comments so you can πŸ‘€ the priceless πŸ“Ή of this adorable girl!!!

Meet Sidni! 🩷 This sweet 7-year-old girl LOVES people!

Within an hour of meeting her foster family, she fell asleep with her head in her foster’s hand. πŸ’€ This means she will likely acclimate pretty quickly to any family that shows her love! 😻

Sidni hasn’t been crazy for being picked up 😼 (in the short time she's been with us - about a week), but she is a big fan of a cozy lap or blanket β€œleg tent!” πŸ’ž Give her a soft space to cuddle up and she’ll melt for you. 😽

😸 🐟 She loves treats and the sound of churu, temptations, or catnip will have her running and eating out of your hand (literally!)

⚠️ Sidni has not had any interaction with other animals in our home, but she adores our teenager πŸ§’πŸ’β€β™€οΈ sitting and reading with her. Chances are she will acclimate though because she's such an easy-going gal! ❣️ Just be sure to do slow intros.

She’s great with her litter box πŸ“¦ and has purrfect manners!!! She's already been πŸ’‰ dewormed, vaccinated, microchipped and spayed so she just needs a family!!! πŸ«‚πŸˆβ€β¬›οΈπŸ’“

Meet Jayda πŸ’• At 16Β½ years young, Jayda is a beautiful old soul with a lot of love β€” and stories β€” to share. 😽 This lovely lady adores chatting with her people and will happily tell you all about her day.

Jayda enjoys gentle pets, cozy lounging, and quiet company. Her favorite time to cuddle is at night, when she’ll climb into bed to snuggle close and keep you company. πŸ’€ She’s also known to roll over and show off her belly for extra affection β€” a sure sign of her trust and sweetness. ❣️

Jayda is looking for a calm, loving home where she can spend her golden years being cherished and adored. 😻

If you have a soft spot for senior cats and a quiet space to share, Jayda would love to fill it with purrs and conversation. πŸ’—πŸΎ

Meowlo! 🐾 I'm Gibson & I just turned 5 yrs old! This is pawrific news for you because that means I'm still playful but can't be bothered with kitten antics anymore... 😺you know, looking for trouble!

Instead, I'd much rather sprawl myself across my humans lap & watch TV πŸ“Ί while getting a back massage! Some say that black cats are the friendliest & cuddliest of all! 😻 In my case, that's definitely the truth! ❣️

I am such a good, well-mannered boy and have never had an accident. I am already dewormed, vaccinated, microchipped & neutered. πŸ’‰ See, the Rescue did all the hard work for you so now, you can just take me home to cuddle! πŸ’€

I get along great with other cats 🐈 & I love kids! πŸ‘¦ πŸ‘Ά I've never really been around 🐢 dogs before but I'm sure if they are cool, I'll be cool 😎!

Will you please adopt me? 😽 I'm so ready for a family of my own. It's the only Xmas present 🎁 I want this year!

Our Story

A New Beginning Animal Rescue (ANBAR) is a volunteer-driven 501(c)(3) non-profit Utah-based organization. Our goal is to thoughtfully reduce unnecessary euthanasia rates; improve Weber and Davis Counties’ animal welfare with compassion and respect through community building and public education on the mutual benefits of responsible pet parenting; and enhance the quality of life of companion animals in need of a new beginning and a forever home. We strive to ensure that each and every animal rescued by ANBAR is cared for; treated with compassion, respect, and dignity. While we are located in the Roy-Layton-Ogden, UT area, we also partner with local and regional groups and accept transfer rescues from throughout northern Utah and the surrounding states. ANBAR does not turn away any companion animals but welcomes them regardless of their condition and do not place a time limit on their stay with us. We believe that euthanasia should be used only as a humane last resort, to prevent further animal suffering – such as when an animal is terminally ill, critically injured, or dying. ANBAR embraces a multi-prong strategic service approach to contribute to reach our goal of reducing the number of adoptable animals euthanized each year. Our services include: *Rehoming and Adoption opportunities and events for ANBAR companion animals *Spay/neuter of ANBAR animals, to effectively reduce the problems of pet overpopulation *Veterinary care for ANBAR animals *Volunteer foster care program to provide housing for rescued or surrendered companion animals, until a qualified forever home is found *Volunteer foster care for special needs animals *Volunteer public education and training programs Rehome and Adoption Opportunities and Events: ANBAR is gratified to have a long-standing special partnership with Petco in holding adoption events every Saturday - without exception - at the Petco store in Layton, UT, since our inception in 2008. Additionally, up to 3 kittens and young cats are displayed at the Petco store for adoption, and rotated weekly to increase visibility and opportunity. Nearly 5,000 companion animals (kittens, cats, puppies, and dogs – and rabbits) have found homes through our adoption events as a result of this joint endeavor.
