This playful 1½-year-old is struggling at the shelter.

Jasper was found on the streets of Brooklyn where he didn’t belong & was almost hit by a car. He’s super healthy, but isn’t microchipped, and no owner has been located.

I was able to get him in my home where I assessed him; he immediately made biscuits, claimed the toys and baskets, climbed the cat furniture and acted like he always owned the home. He’s a chatty curious guy. I have cats of my own and sadly, I cannot keep or foster him.

Now he’s in a shelter cage, and he’s really sad. He is far too active to be cooped up. North Brooklyn cat rescue Whiskers-a-GoGo graciously offered to pull him after his neuter, but he urgently needs a foster home to go to. Cat rescues are overwhelmed right now & Jasper needs OUT.

He is only a year and a half old. He’s smart, affectionate, treat motivated, incredibly busy, and LOVES to play. He’s also a polydactyl. This is a cat who wants someone to get out the wand toy and spend time with him. He also likes to bunny kick his toys. He has so much energy and personality, but he needs somewhere he can actually enjoy being himself. If you’ve ever wanted a Bengal/Toyger type breed as a rescue, this is your guy!

Jasper could be a wonderful match for anyone who wants an active little companion and has the time to keep him engaged. He’d also be great for a family with kids who understand how to play gently and respectfully with a cat.

I got to see Jasper comfortable in a home and seeing him so sad now is heartbreaking. He needs out of the shelter and into a home where he can play, settle in, and feel safe.

Can you foster him, or give him a permanent home? Please fill out a foster or adoption application. If you can’t take him, please share this with someone who might. A foster home will be his next step out.

Jasper was found on the streets of Williamsburg where he didn’t belong & was almost hit by a car. He’s super healthy, not microchipped, and an owner wasn’t located.

I was able to get him in my home where I observed him; he immediately made biscuits, claimed ALL the toys, baskets and beds, climbed the kitty furniture and acted like he always owned my home. He’s a chatty curious guy! I have cats of my own and sadly, I can’t keep or foster him. A bathroom hold won’t do for this cat; he needs a home to play in.

Now he’s in a shelter cage, and he’s really sad. He is far too active to be cooped up. North Brooklyn cat rescue Whiskers-a-GoGo graciously offered to pull him after his neuter, but he urgently needs a foster home to go to. NYC cat rescues are overwhelmed right now & Jasper needs OUT.

Despite his size, he is still a young baby with kitten energy. He’s smart, affectionate, treat motivated, incredibly busy, and LOVES to play. He’s also a polydactyl!

It’s been a slow year for monarchs or any butterflies in my garden, but this female monarch made her way over on Sunday & laid at least 15 eggs that I could find. She stayed quite awhile, but I stopped counting at 15 & guess there are more.

Caterpillars won’t last in my garden. Paper wasps patrol the leaves of everything & will wipe them out fast. Tachnid flies will get the rest. I take the eggs and keep them safe & rear them on milkweed clippings in an enclosure. Anyone else here growing milkweed for our monarch friends?

Kitty, the locksmith cat, (Empire Lock) on Grand street in Williamsburg is MISSING. She is a senior fixture in the neighborhood; she is 16 years old. It looks like someone stole her. Link to IG post in comments.

so sorry to anyone who is affected. we are neighbors and curious if anyone knows what caused it?
