Ariel is still looking for her forever home. She is a beautiful, loving, 5.5 month old kitten with special needs. As you can see, her knee joint doesn't bend when she walks and her hip joints are separated.

We've taken her to the specialist, and they recommend that we leave it alone since she isn't in pain and surgery can be quite painful for her. But look at how she walks! She knows her name and comes to you for pets.

Ariel is FIV/FeLV negative and fully vetted. She would do well on her own or with another cat or small dog around. She won't do well with stairs and doesn't climb as much as a kitten would.

We are waiving the adoption fee for the right adopter. If you are interested in this beauty, go to gratefulpawnj.com/adopt and type in "Ariel" as your animal of interest.

Don't let this beauty walk away.

CC (cookies and cream) and Ori (Oreo) are brothers and best friends! These little boys, born August 1, are kid-friendly, dog-friendly, and cat-friendly! Has your child been begging for a pet? They’d make great first cats for a family looking to add some four-legged siblings to the household. They love to play and roughhouse, but once they’ve tired each other out, they’re the sweetest snuggle bugs you could ask for. Priority would go to adopters who want to keep them together, but they could be adopted separately to households with another active, friendly cat.

The boys are distemper vaccinated, FIV/FeLV negative, and will be neutered shortly. Get your applications in now at gratefulpawsnj.com/adopt

Fosters are needed for this colony of cats located in one of our Board member's backyard!

They're shy, but friendly, and we will be with you through the whole process to get them to come out of their shells.

They're located in South Amboy, but will travel to Union County and Morris county to the right foster.

If you're thinking about fostering, here's your chance! Fill out a foster form here: https://forms.gle/XRgwQfnRPjGeTxgMA

Dolly found herself abandoned by her owner, pregnant on the streets. She had her babies and they were all rescued and she was left behind to fend for herself. Thanks to her foster, we were able to take her in.

This beauty is SO sweet. She has been through a LOT so initially will be a little shy. She is being fosters with dogs and cats and gets along with everyone.

Dolly is spayed, updated on vaccinations and FeLV/FIV negative. She is estimated to be 1-2 years old. To apply for Dolly visit gratefulpawsnj.com/adopt

Meet Salem! 🖤

This gorgeous 1-year-old black cat is ready to find his forever home, and he’s got all the charm to prove it.

Salem is the full package: sleek, glossy, and every bit as mysterious as his name suggests (until you see how quickly he melts into a lap). At 1 years old, he’s past the chaotic kitten phase but still young enough to be playful, curious, and full of personality.

Salem’s fully up to date on his vetting and is ready to go home. Apply today at gratefulpawsnj.com/adopt

These 5 month old kittens are looking for their forever homes. They were born outside with their friendly mother until a kind Samaritan came in and started fostering them. They're shy at first, but as we all know, shy cats have the best personalities! Plus, they go crazy for treats.

Hunter and Wilbur are males, while Princess and Dolly Purrton are females. All four are spayed/neutered, fully vaccinated, and FIV/FeLV negative. We prefer adopters who apply for a pair.

To add this bundle of joy to your home, go to gratefulpawsnj.com/adopt and fill out an application today.
