About Brioche

Meet Brioche, an 7 week old, 1.9 pound (as of 4/4), delightful DSH mix. This lovely kitty is sweet, soft, and super loving. He is cat friendly, and terrific with adults. He is frisky and fun, but also knows how to chill out. He will swat feathers, chase plastic balls, and play with string toys...and then go down for a much-needed cat nap! He is cuddly, cute, and very entertaining to have around. He has a soothing purr and a gentle meow that will melt your heart. This deserving fluff-ball is a gem and will make someone very happy. If you would like to give this wonderful cat a home, please email rescue@pupstarzrescue.org or visit www.pupstarzrescue.org for an application! **We cannot guarantee the age, breed, or size of a cat. www.pupstarzrescue.org Please Follow us on Instagram: @pupstarzrescue Like us on FaceBook! www.facebook.com/PupStarzRescue

About Domestic Medium Hair Cats

Domestic Medium Hairs are versatile, beautiful cats with plush coats that fall between short and long hair. Not a specific breed, they're among the most common cats in shelters, offering a wonderful balance of beauty and manageable grooming. Their mixed heritage gives each one a distinctive look and personality.

Adopting a Domestic Medium Hair means choosing a resilient, adaptable companion with the genetic advantages of mixed ancestry. These cats bond well with families, adjust easily to new environments, and require less grooming than long-haired breeds. They're proof that shelter cats make extraordinary pets.

Adopting in New York, NY

New York City is one of the best places in the country to adopt a pet. With hundreds of shelters and rescue organizations across all five boroughs, you can find dogs, cats, and other companions waiting for a forever home.

From Central Park strolls to neighborhood dog runs, NYC offers endless ways to bond with your new best friend. Adopt, don't shop, and give a shelter pet the city life they deserve.

Local Climate & Pet Care

Winter

25°F to 38°F

Dec – Feb

NYC winters bring snow, ice, and salted sidewalks that can irritate paw pads. Use booties or paw wax before walks, and wipe paws when you get home. Wind chill between buildings can be intense, so keep outings shorter for small or thin-coated breeds.

Spring

42°F to 65°F

Mar – May

Spring is one of the best times to explore Central Park, Prospect Park, and the city’s many dog runs as temperatures warm up. Watch for puddles and mud in off-leash areas after rain. Allergy season can affect pets too, so monitor for excessive scratching or sneezing.

Summer

68°F to 85°F

Jun – Aug

High humidity and hot pavement are the biggest summer hazards for NYC pets. Walk early morning or after sunset, and always carry water. The city’s concrete retains heat, so test the sidewalk with your hand before heading out.
