Why Adopt A Mature Cat?

An older cat will generally be quieter and more sensible than a kitten or a young cat. Instead of becoming bored and needing to let off steam in your absence, they are more likely to doze while leaving your furnishings intact.

As cats grow older, they are more home-oriented and settled, making them excellent companions. An older cat will be much more appreciative of pampering than a kitten.

An older cat provides calm companionship

If the potential adopter works outside the home or is otherwise frequently away, they will find that an adult cat will adapt to their home much more comfortably than a kitten.

Adult cat's personalities are already formed so you know what you're getting, i.e. lap cat vs. kitten in an adult body. You cannot mold a cat's personality.

Anna, our cat Adoption chairperson, agreed to model with Elmo. She is the wonderful lady who is reponsible for saving all of our cats.	Please say Hello to Nancy when you come to adopt a cat. Without her help, I could never have taken all these wonderful pictures of our cats.
At Greenwich Bay Animal Hospital, introduce yourself to Erin. She is an outstanding Vet. Tech that also helps us with our animals and gives them extra love when she has time.	Meet Heather, also a great Vet. Tech, who is now holding Mr. Love Bug, Millbury. You can see how good she is with our animals.

Hi Tammy,
Thank you for taking such good care of our cats and dogs. Your kindness and warmth make all our animals feel welcome.

Sam and Oliver

Sam and Oliver
Special Price: $150.00 for both      Sam and Oliver are forever brothers. Sam is a 5 year old Neutered Male Malti/poo. His brother Oliver is a 12 year young, neutered male Shih Tzu/poo. They are both up to date on their vaccines, have tested negative for lyme and heartworm and are on monthly preventative for fleas and ticks.
     Because Sam and Oliver's owners were moving out of state, they could not take the boys with them. Sam was turned in one afternoon. When I asked about Oliver, the owner stated he was going to be put to sleep that evening because no one would take an older dog.
     A few minutes after she left, I called her and asked her to bring Oliver in so we could try and find a home for him. I am so glad I did! They are both adorable, loving, friendly and happy little guys, as long as they have each other. I had them in separate cages to give them more room but they just cried for each other. They curl up in each other's paws and go to sleep.
     They both just had their teeth cleaned so they are pearly white. They are both in great health except Oliver who has a small Cheery eye in his right eye and has dry eye in both eyes. This will require inexpensive medicine applied twice a day, which only takes a few seconds. Simple cleaning of his eyes daily will help keep them clear. Oliver will be grateful for the extra attention he requires.
     Both dogs are on a diet because they are more than a few pounds overweight which puts pressure on their little legs. They have lost a couple of pounds so far, but boy do they love their cookies!
     They are excellent with children and don't seem to mind cats. They love to sit on your lap, lick your face and go for a walk. They are also very playful with each other and love to play with squeeky toys.
     Our goal is for both dogs to be adopted together so Oliver can live out his life with his baby brother, Sam. Ollie can have a good 5 years or so left to make you very happy and for you to make him very happy. We are only charging one adoption fee of $150.00 for both dogs.
     Please give Oliver a chance at continued life with his brother, you will not regret it. EGAPL will donate the first month's supply of Oliver's eye medication. Lyme vaccine and microchipping will be done this week and they will be able to go to their forever home, hopefully together. Please come see these loving young boys. Adoption Information: Procedures, Directions, Cost and Items to Bring with you.

Don't we have cute tongues?	What a darling pair!	How is this for a picture?	We need to go in the same direction.	Let's go we are ready for a walk.
What a perfect picture of me.	We are the perfect pair.	We walk well together.	I love you Oliver. I love you, too, Sammy.	Our backs are just as cute as our fronts.
If you hold me and hug me, I will be yours.	I do not accept too many kisses.	I like being in Tammy's arms.	What do you think of my adorable face?	Treat me like a baby if you must.
How can you ever have enough pictures of me.	I am a happy boy.	I am a good looking male.	Just another good picture of me.	Precious Oliver.
