CHARLIE
|
ADOPTED FEBRUARY 2022
We lost one of our fur babies to kidney disease a while back and it left our younger boy without a playmate. We were looking around and fell in love with an orange kitty at Cape Ann. He was so sweet and attentive to our presence. Once we adopted him and brought him home his new brother was naturally suspicious but once he saw Charlie’s energy they became instant playmates. Charlie is very affectionate to both his dads and is showing signs of being a wicked smart little boy. He love jumping up on the sink to ask for a sip of water and also demands head boops. He has fit into our family so well and we couldn’t be happier to have him in our lives. -Jonathon D. |
IRWIN (NOW RIO)
|
ADOPTED MARCH 2022
Rio was going to be adopted for my dog who was sick with congestive heart failure. He loved puppies and the hope was that Rio would make him happy. A day before I met Rio, my other dog passed away. I considered cancelling my appointment but something told me to go. I met Rio and it was love at first sight. After being with him for a few minutes, I knew he was the perfect match. It was like my dog sent him from heaven to be with us. He has blended with the rest of the family and my other Cape Ann Animal Aid rescue Neva the cat! He has brought us so much joy that I did not think was possible after losing my other dog. I cannot thank the staff enough for another wonderful adoption! We love Rio so much and are extremely grateful you helped pair us together ! -Stacey G. |

JOSEPH AND JAMES (NOW BANDIT AND JIMMY)
|
ADOPTED MARCH 2022
We had been looking for a bonded pair of kittens to join our family. These brothers are so bonded, they follow each other everywhere. They have fit right in and are friends with our dog and older cat. Pick either one up and the loud purring machine starts. They love tummy rubs and long sleeps in the sun. This has been the Best Birthday Present I have given myself and family ever. -Kathleen C. |
WES (NOW KODA)
|
ADOPTED APRIL 2021
I wanted to adopt a pup and started looking on Monday, April 12th, 2021- that morning, I saw a picture of Wes and fell in love with his sweet face. By the end of the day, I met him on zoom and was told he's all mine. He was described as goofy and fearless and I can't think of a better description. He loves all people and animals, all he wants is attention and greets everyone with his goofy little smile. He loves his walks, adventures, cookies, treats and snuggles. He is my baby boy and has been such great addition to my life. Thank you Cape Ann Animal Aid! -Robin S. |
LUCY (NOW LULU)
|
ADOPTED MARCH 2022
Lulu has been an amazing addition to our family. She brings so much joy and happiness. We can't imagine life without her! She was a little timid at first, but quickly warmed up and is the center of attention now. And she's absolutely beautiful! -Lucia V. |
JACKIE O (NOW JACKIE)
|
ADOPTED MAY 2018
I wanted to share that Jackie O has never felt like an adopted dog. She felt and acted like family from day one. It is is almost 4 years later and we could if not asked for a better rescue. Please keep up the great work. I wanted to share this selfie of us taken yesterday. I think it’s funny. -Yvette A. |
SIZZLER (NOW TACO)

ADOPTED FEBRUARY 2022
We love Taco, he is a great addition to our family. He has adjusted very well to his new home and family. We want to thank you for how friendly and helpful you all were. -Paula J. |
CITRUS AND DONALD (NOW FRED & GEORGE WEASLEY)
|
SEPTEMBER 2021
Our guy Simon passed away after 13+ years with us. We went to multiple shelters with no luck and happened upon CAAA, walked into the cat room and there they were! We almost went with another group but they kept drawing me back. They took a while to adjust as they were semi feral but fast forward to March and let's just say we live here with them. So glad they kept looking so hopefully at us and we took the chance! -Susan M. |
KIP AND LAFAWNDUH (NOW JOE AND MISTY)
|
ADOPTED FEBRUARY 2022
We saw Joe and Misty's pictures and had to head down to the shelter to meet them in person. These two were strays found in Chelsea approx 10 months old. Misty was a sweet scared little cat who stayed in her cage at the shelter even with the door open, Joe was we believe a litter mate and they were a bonded pair. Joe was curious and playful but not into being touched. It was a tough decision as they were described as Spirit Cats. Ones who may come out of their shell or may not. We thought we would give them a chance to unwind and have a home, we had exactly what was needed in the description of what they were looking for in a forever home. It’s only been about 6 weeks, they are still on the shy side with touch but show us every day that they're settling in beautifully. They both love to play and romp around constantly. Joe struts around and loves to sit in the windows to watch the birds. Misty comes out of her shell every day too, never stops playing or discovering new places to enjoy in the house. They seem to be coming around with the small dog Atlas. They are growing everyday, they are always visible, ready to play and get more comfortable daily with us. I know in time they will enjoy gentle pats and love from their humans. -Dana S. |
