**Adoptable in Massachusetts**

Oppie is a sweet 2-year-old boy whose preferred sleeping arrangement is being the little spoon.

He has food sensitivities that are easily managed with a prescription diet, and otherwise he’s focused on the important things: snuggling, being adorable, and following you around like a shadow.

If you think Oppie is cute in photos, he will melt your heart in person!

🌱 Jade & kitten update! 🌱

First things first: the kittens have names!

🌿 Aspen — pointed kitten
🌿 Cedar — black kitten
🌿 Olive — black stripey kitten
🌿 Maple — black stripey kitten

These rambunctious little sprouts are growing fast. They’ve started sampling Mom’s wet and dry food and are learning to use the litter box.... though they are still learning the difference between a litter box and the floor. 🫣

Each kitten will need two distemper vaccines and a rabies vaccine before they’re ready for adoption.

This weekend, if you can spare $5, you’ll be helping these little sprouts grow into great, mighty cats. 🌳🖤

🖤 Happy Black Cat Appreciation Day! 🖤

At Black Cat Rescue, we’re here for the undercat.

Cats like Monet, who came to us after being found outside: anemic, feverish, and battling an upper respiratory infection. These days you’d hardly know it. This sleek, handsome boy is social, playful, and always ready for a cuddle.

We think every cat deserves the chance to feel safe, loved, and healthy enough to show us who they really are,

And we’re always happy to root for the under cat. 💪🐈‍⬛

**Adoptable in Massachusetts**

This is Cindy Lou’s patient face. She is incredibly zen. We, on the other hand, are getting impatient for her to find her person.

Cindy Lou has been with us for a year. At first, people hesitated because she’s a senior. Then, when we discovered she had cancer, she became a hospice cat. But Cindy Lou had other plans. She stayed active, curious, and full of life, far exceeding everyone’s expectations…and eventually, she was returned.

Sometimes, it’s hard to win. 🤷‍♀️

But Cindy Lou has something to teach us: how to live in the present. She’s friendly, attentive, and low-key. She is the kind of cat who will be beside you, making an ordinary day feel a little better.

If you’re looking for a best friend for today, and for every day she has left, Cindy Lou is your girl. ❤️
