Please Adopt Us

The featured cat this week from the Animal Shelter of Martha’s Vineyard is a beautiful older black cat named Thor who is on a special diet because he is overweight. Thor cannot be in the room with the other cats and is getting depressed. If someone adopts him, the shelter will waive the adoption fee; alternatively if there is someone who would like foster him in a loving home and watch his diet, the shelter would be most grateful.

Other cats available for adoption are: Brady, an older black and white cat; Butter and Chloe, two sweet tortoiseshells; Deacon, a lovable ginger tiger; Mango, a female ginger; Panchie, a young gray and white kitty who came to the shelter because his owner died recently; and Rex, another older black and white cat.

Shelter hours are Wednesdays 8:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., Thursdays and Fridays 8:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. and Saturdays 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The shelter is closed Sunday through Tuesday. The telephone number is 508-627-8662.
