Do you like spice 🌶🌶🌶? Looking for a barn cat? Looking for a shy cat that you can win their trust and feel like the world's most special human? We have a variety to choose from!

Oreo- grumpy but sweet older gentleman. Oreo will hiss at you at first, but once he warms up enjoys pets from his chosen people. He would love a sunny spot in a window to sleep in most of the day.

Tabasco- wants to be an indoor/outdoor cat, he has chosen people that he likes, and likes to pet YOU. He doesn't necessarily want you to pet HIM. He would be a potential barn cat candidate as he loves the great outdoors.

Chanterelle- this lady would prefer to be your only cat. She, like Tabasco likes things on her terms, and would do well as an indoor/outdoor cat or barn cat.

Prince Tuesday, Katarina, and Miss Elaina- These three were brought in together and are used to the company of other cats and an indoor/outdoor life (mostly outdoor). They are shy, but with time and patience would come around to select human companions. They would also be barn cat candidates.

Applications are available here: https://www.ncal.com/pet-adoption/available-cats/

SPOTLIGHT: Gus!!
How has this boy not been adopted yet?? He is sweet as pie, recovering well from his broken leg and looking for love 😍. Gus takes a couple minutes to warm up to new dogs but does well with them. He is living with a cat in foster care as well, and while he chased them at first, he now has better manners. His foster family is going out of state soon, and we would LOVE LOVE LOVE for him to find his forever place! His foster family says that he stays nearby, enjoys spending time with them, is eager to please and if they could they would keep him forever!

SPOTLIGHT: Casper and Tim
These distinguished older gentlemen came to us when their previous owners didn't bother to reclaim them after they were found wandering. They haven't had the easiest lives so far, but things are looking up! They are safe, healthy, up to date on vaccines and neutered. They are gentle, loving, and enjoy meeting new people. We would love for them to go home together, Tim is a bit lost without Casper, and will sing a song when they are apart.

You can apply to adopt these special boys here: https://www.ncal.com/pet-adoption/available-dogs/

Let's talk about Dirby. He's not boring! Does he like you? Maybe. Does he like other dogs? TO P*E ON! Does he like food? Yes! If Dirby chooses you, he is as loyal as they come, full of love and wiggles and joy. He's been waiting a long time for the right adopter. Is it you? (Don't worry, he'll let you know if it's you or not).

ADOPTION UPDATE POST: We just got this lovely update from Jersey's adopters that we wanted to share!

"... we have learned her favorite toys (yellow indestructible bone and purple flexible ball). She plays a great game of bouncy ball with Warren each day. She loves her walks and usually goes on 2 a day (but sometimes three). This is in addition to her backyard play.

Jersey is absolutely full of energy. We learned some helpful techniques from the vet to get her to stop jumping on people…still working on that.

Despite being very young, she has NEVER had an accident ( #1 nor #2) inside of our home nor in the vehicle! She lets us know when she wants to go outside, which is so helpful and so smart.

Finally, her sleeping habits are superb. By 9:30pm sharp each day, she is standing in front of our bedroom door waiting for bed. If we are up past 10, she goes to her bed and puts herself to sleep. She sleeps through the entire night and loves her morning walk first thing!

Overall, Jersey is the perfect dog for our household. We will sell training for her pulling heavily during walks and jumping all over people. Thank you to the NCAL fam for our Jersey."

Thank you Jersey's family for giving her such a loving home and working with her to help her be comfortable and part of your family!

🌟 Meet Callie! 🌟

We’re teaming up with our friends at American Lab Rescue (ALR) to help this sweet girl find her forever home. 💛

Callie is a 4-year-old black lab mix who was left behind, but thanks to a kind landlord she was brought safely to ALR. Today she’s enjoying a foster home here in Vermont and is ready for her next chapter. She’s playful, affectionate, loves her walks, and can’t wait to be someone’s loyal companion.

👉 Please note: Callie is not an NCAL dog. We are cross-promoting her on behalf of ALR. If you’re interested in adopting or learning more, please connect directly with American Lab Rescue at americanlabrescue.com.

We’ll be spending more time with Callie soon, so stay tuned as we share more about how she does with other animals and kids. Let’s help Callie find the loving home she deserves! 🐾
