Albert is a sweet, dark brown senior tabby with extra toes on all four paws. He came to HART through no fault of his own. Though initially sad, he’s now relaxed and shows his gentle, affectionate nature. Albert loves human attention, catnip toys, and curling up in a cozy cat tree. While he came in with his brother, Theodore, they aren’t bonded, though they’d make a great pair if adopted together. Albert has some age-related needs (eye care, occasional fluids, and a limited-ingredient duck diet). Albert is waiting for his quiet and loving forever home.

Amelia is a beautiful senior white and gray cat who was surrendered due to a family change. Originally a feral cat, she first appeared at her former home as a young mother with kittens and gradually adjusted to indoor life, eventually bonding closely with her owner. Since arriving at HART, Amelia has made incredible progress. Initially shy, she has blossomed with the support of the Shy Angels team, now enjoying playtime and eagerly coming over for treats—her favorite! Amelia would thrive in a quiet, loving home with a patient person who will let her continue to feel safe and loved.

Annabelle is a gorgeous long-haired girl that is starting to relax in her new digs at HART. She has been very nervous but does like to play and seems to want love and attention but can also strike out when she is scared or unhappy. She is a pretty passive girl with her roommates and likes to keep to herself. Our Shy Angels socialization team is working with Annabelle to show her that she does not need to be scared of us. They have made strides even getting her to eat treats from their hands or play with a feather and the laser pointer toys.

Basil is an adorable young tabby with lovely gray coloring and a cute, pale pink-orange nose. She was surrendered to HART when her former guardian could no longer provide the care she needed. When Basil arrived, she was experiencing significant fur loss and GI issues, due to food allergies. Now that she is on medications and an appropriate diet, she is doing really well and is becoming the outgoing, playful cat she wants to be. A prescription diet for her allergies will take care of her issues. Basil is very sweet and gentle and does well with the other laid-back kitties in her room. This girl will be so happy when she finds a calm, loving, cat-savvy home. Everyone adores her!

Cassius Clay is a distinguished senior gentleman with a heart as big as his name. This calm, sun-loving boy has perfected the art of relaxing, whether he’s stretched out in a warm patch of sunlight or curled into a cozy bed for an afternoon nap. Cassius is an old soul—gentle, dignified, and happiest when life moves at a slow, peaceful pace surrounded by familiar comforts.
Cassius is diabetic and requires daily insulin along with a consistent routine, but he handles his care like a true champion. His condition is well-managed with a low-carb canned-food diet and twice-daily injections, and he remains a content, easygoing companion who enjoys quiet time and the company of other mellow cats.

Chris is a handsome gray and white cat who returned to HART when his owner’s health declined. Curious and observant, Chris enjoys watching his surroundings and is a gentle sweetheart who craves love, especially from his feline friends—he’s often found curled up beside them. When nervous, he paces in leftward circles, a behavior believed to be neurological. Though very fearful of being picked up, Chris is affectionate if his boundaries are respected. He also loves to play with toys, either with other cats or on his own. He’s looking for a home where he can have a kitty snuggle buddy to cuddle with.

He shares a special bond with his best friend Shylo, often lounging or exploring their room together. Houdini does well with his feline roommates also. When Houdini and Shylo first arrived at HART, they both were very fearful and we wondered if they’d ever trust people again.

Today, Houdini greets visitors with curiosity and has proven himself to be a sweet and loving cat who is ready to share his love with a forever home.

Jayden a tiger with large green eyes, can be at times the sweetest cat, offering kisses and accepting of head pets but, will quickly let you know when enough is enough. Jayden came to HART during the winter of 2022. We don’t know much about Jayden’s past life, but she came in very under-socialized and fearful of people. She still tends to be more comfortable with the company of other cats rather than humans, but she has made great progress, thanks to Our Shy Angels Team who have been working with her to build her confidence and trust in people.

Joey is a sweet, handsome young black cat with a small white tuft on his chest who came to HART of Maine in 2024. Despite being blind, Joey navigates confidently with an adorable high-step.

Kippy is a very sweet and soft, dilute tortie with a gentle demeanor and a deep appreciation for the quieter things in life.

Marilyn Monroe is a lovely young kitty with a beautiful white coat with black markings, along with golden eyes and a beauty spot on one side of her pink nose. This glamour puss came to HART from our rescue partner in Tennessee, and raised a litter of kittens who were all adopted. She’s ready to shine in her own spotlight and find her forever home. She prefers to make friends slowly and wants to be sure she’ll get loving pets! She is an alpha female cat, and can be particular about which of her feline roommates she will tolerate. And she’ll let humans know when she’s done with petting! Like any true celebrity, she only eats the finest of foods and is currently on a limited ingredient diet of duck and green pea. We tell her it’s because she’s special, but really it’s to help keep her allergies in check—she is prone to small bumps on the underside of her chin. Marilyn Monroe is a wonderful kitty, perhaps a little bit of a diva!

Molly is a sweet, quiet senior kitty who enjoys her calm room with other shy felines. She is a lovely tiger with lots of white, black and brown tiger markings and an adorable nose! Molly has been sad and frightened after being surrendered to HART twice—once when her owners moved and didn’t take her, and then most recently when her human sadly passed away. She is starting to like head and neck scratches and even hand massages by HART’s Shy Angels Team but still doesn’t like being picked up. We know that she just needs time, patience and love to bring out her true personality.

Nefertiti is very much a “people kitty.” She loves her humans and loves to sleep with them! Her favorite pastimes are lounging, receiving ear tip rubs and getting chin and cheek scratches. She especially loves getting brushed. Nef loves her quiet time and could be described as a couch potato...the main reason her weight needs to be monitored and playtime is so important. A senior lady, she still enjoys chasing balls and string toys. HART helped her overcome her hyperthyroidism with radioactive iodine treatments. She is now just on a medication to address aging aches and pains. Nef wants nothing more than to be brushed and cuddled all day! She is a real sweetheart!

Oswald is a very sweet and adorable boy who came to HART in 2024 after being found as a stray living in a barn.

Today, Shylo enjoys soft pets, seeks out attention, and shows just how much love she has to give! She is ready to start her next chapter (with Houdini) in their forever home.

Siesta is a gorgeous grey tabby with adorable white paws. A senior lady, Siesta knows what she likes and doesn’t like. What she likes is being sweet-talked and petted gently! What she doesn’t like are loud and sudden movements, especially by people she doesn’t know. We think that’s pretty relatable. She lets you know when she needs her space. Sweet Siesta came to HART after her previous owner could sadly no longer provide for her. She does have a few health conditions (hyperthyroid and entropion, an eye condition), so she needs a home with an established vet relationship. Once she loves and trusts you, she will let you carry her around. And when she needs her meds, a little sweet talk goes a long way!

Spunky is a total sweetheart—so friendly and affectionate! A true lap cat, she would love nothing more than a home where she can snuggle and make herself comfy. She is a confident yet easy-going cat who likes to be the boss but has learned how to get along with other laid-back cats. She has enjoyed life in a loving foster home for several years where she likes to “help” with computer work and look out windows. Spunky enjoys a nice nap in her big comfy bed. If she can’t be found, she might be toasty sleeping under the covers! “Spunkster” also loves to be brushed till she shines. Spunky has a heart condition which is checked regularly. However, there has been very little change in her condition for several years and we feel it should not stop her from being in a loving home where she’ll get and give love 24 hours a day. This senior girl is not shy and likes everyone she meets—she just wants lots of love!

Theodore is a gentle, dark brown tabby with endearing, slightly tattered ears and extra thumbs on his front paws. A senior boy, he arrived at HART with his brother Albert. Initially reserved and sad, he has since warmed up and now shows his sweet, affectionate side. Theodore loves pets, scritches, and catnip toys. His favorite spots to relax are up high in his room, where he can get a birds-eye view. He has manageable hyperthyroidism and does well on a duck protein diet. Theo is waiting for his forever home.

Vito is a gentle brown tabby with white on his face and chest, a pink nose, and a permanent wink. Good Samaritans found him living in their barn, injured and in need of help. After months of trying, they successfully trapped him in the fall of 2024 and brought him to HART for a fresh start. Once in our care, we discovered he is diabetic and had chronic ear infections. With treatment and care, including the surgical removal of his injured eye, Vito has been doing much better. He gets along well with his feline roommates and would thrive in a patient, loving home.

Wally is a petite, big-eyed sweetheart arrived at HART in the summer of 2024 through no fault of her own. Blind and initially frightened in her new environment, she has adjusted beautifully, proving just how resilient she is. Using her ears to navigate, Wally has even started recognizing her favorite volunteers—especially when they come bearing Churu treats! Despite her blindness, Wally doesn’t let anything slow her down. She loves carrying her favorite green toy balls in her mouth and batting them around with pure joy. Now, she’s looking for a forever home where she can share her love.

Willow is a handsome black male house panther with a cute patch of white on his chest. This guy is living proof that age is only a number—though a senior, he has the energy level of the Energizer Bunny in the body of an adult cat. Willow needs lots of exercise and mental stimulation to burn off some of his energy. He’ll do great in an active home where people understand that he needs a busy, fun environment. He especially enjoys playing with a peacock feather, a mouse on a string, and tissue paper! Willow will nip once in a while if he hasn’t used up some of his pent-up energy, so he needs a fun house, but one without young children. We think he is a very sophisticated-looking cool cat with striking eyes!
