Chardonnay is a 3-4 year old lap cat who was rescued while pregnant and living on the streets of Newark. After safely giving birth, she's thrived in care and is ready to settle into a permanent home. Chardonnay is sweet, affectionate, and happiest snuggled close. She’s never been sick since arriving at the rescue and takes her role as a companion seriously. She’s spayed, up to date on vaccines, FIV negative, and FELV positive. Her FELV status means she should only live alone or with other FELV+ cats—this is non-negotiable for her future health. If this is new to you, the team welcomes honest conversations about what caring for an FELV cat looks like. If you’re looking for a true companion and can offer the right environment, Chardonnay could be the perfect fit. Every cat deserves a stable, loving home, and Chardonnay is waiting for hers. They are ready to love you; are you ready to apply?
