Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in New York, New York

Meet Rufus - New Arrival!

Rufus, a five-year-old male, just arrived at the adoption center and is still getting settled in, so we're just beginning to learn who they are. Right now, everything is new-new people, new sounds, new routines-and we're giving them time to relax, decompress, and show us their true personality at their own pace.

Since Rufus is a recent arrival, we don't have much background information or many personality notes yet, but we'll be updating their profile as we get to know them better. Every day reveals something new, and we're excited to learn all the little quirks, preferences, and habits that make them unique.

If you're open to a little patience and a lot of possibility, come meet Rufus! You might be the person who helps them feel safe, confident, and right at home.

Check back for updates-or stop by to say hello and discover who Rufus is becoming.

We are located at 307 W Broadway and open 11am-7pm, 7 days a week (excluding major holidays) - no appointment necessary.
