Notes from New York City Cat Coalition

Meet Polly! Polly is a sweet, reserved girl who is looking for a special person to help her continue discovering just how wonderful life can be. Our volunteers have worked patiently with her, and she has become comfortable with touch and play. She is now ready for the next step in her journey: a quiet, loving foster or adoptive home where she can continue building confidence and learning to trust.

Polly is playful and gentle, and she absolutely loves treats! With patience, consistency, and plenty of love, this lovely girl has so much potential to blossom into a wonderful companion.

A dedicated foster home would give Polly the peaceful environment she needs to continue coming out of her shell and learning that people can be a source of comfort, companionship, and love. For the right person, watching Polly grow in confidence could be an incredibly rewarding experience.

If Polly sounds like the special girl who belongs in your home, please email nycatcoaladopt@yahoo.com or call Joan at (718) 671-1695. An online adoption form is also available - click here to apply.
