Josie is a very sweet young lady born in mid 2008 who loves both people and other felines. She showed up at the home of a cat lover and was believed to have strayed from a nearby farm with an uncontrolled cat population. She was initially spayed and released back outside, but remained outdoors at the home of her rescuer, until there was room for her at the Cat Shack. She then came into foster care with a much older male cat whom she resembled closely and who was her constant companion. Sadly, it was soon recognized that the older cat was suffering from cancer. Josie remained constantly by his side until he could go on no longer.

Josie adjusted to the loss of her special buddy and is happy with her multiple foster friends. She is hoping to be adopted to a loving home where there is another cat anxious to have a feline companion.

Josie is a gentle cat with a very mild temperament. She likes to be petted and softly kneads with her feet. She will be bashful when first adopted but should soon be happy in a loving adult home with at least one other cat. She is spayed, vaccinated and negative for feline leukemia and FIV. She is in excellent health, has good litterbox manners and is ready to be the next love in your life!

Adopting from The Cat Shack

The Cat Shack rescue is all volunteer and the adopted cats are delivered to your home. Because we deliver the cats to you, we must restrict the adoptions of our highly adoptable cats to a 1 hour drive from the Allentown PA area. In certain situations, 'special-needs' cats, ferals and older cats will be adopted to homes at a greater distance then a 1 hour drive from Allentown PA.

Young KITTENS are always adopted in Pairs or to homes with other felines already in the home. Click here to read why kittens are happier with a buddy!

All cats are vaccinated, dewormed, tested and altered as part of the adoption contract. This basic care (and other vet work required to make our rescues healthy) is included in the $100 adoption donation!
