This playful kitten came to us on a transport and is ready to find a new home of their own! We are still getting to know them, but like most kittens, they will need a family to teach them all the kitten basics like socializing with people and playing with appropriate toys. They could likely go to a home with another cat who wants an annoying younger sibling to be a role model to.

If you think this kitten could be a good match for your home and would like to learn more, stop by our Cape Cod Adoption Center. We have open adoption hours Tuesday-Sunday from 1pm-4pm – no appointment or application needed.

You are welcome to enter our cat rooms during open hours. Staff and volunteers will be happy to assist you!

*Please be sure your town regulations allow for roosters on your property before you inquire about adoption!*

Roosters for hire! We have so many good boys hanging out in our bachelor pad waiting for a flock of ladies of their very own. Our roosters are respectful of people and social with other birds – they are ready to do their job of protecting your hens! We have a wide variety of sizes, breeds, and temperaments. Roosters are full of personality and make great additions to any hobby flock!

Do you have room on your farm, and in your heart, for a special flock of sheep? This crew has been together most of their lives and are looking for the perfect home to spend their golden years. These sheep have done a great job keeping our pasture brush free and only asking for some grain and hay in return. Many of the flock are shy, but some of the group has warmed up to the people at Nevins and are absolute dolls! If you are interested in adopting, please fill in an inquiry today!

Marnie came to us from a home with many cats and had limited human interaction. Marnie would make an excellent working cat and seems destined to succeed in an environment where there is limited to no pressure to make human friends. Marnie loves her cat roommates, so she would also likely succeed in a pair of working cats. One of her current roomies – Kalabar and Sophie – would be happy to join her!

This cat is part of our Working Cat Program! This program is for cats that are not well suited for an indoor-only type lifestyle but would thrive in environments with more space, a job, and/or less pressure from humans and other pets.

While this cat is used to people being in somewhat close proximity to feed and care for them, these are not currently social cats but would make great ‘behind the scenes’ working cats! Interested adopters must have a safe, secure structure or barn for a working cat and be able to provide adequate time for acclimation.

If you are interested, please give us a call today!

If you would like to learn more about the Working Cat Program, or would like to fill out an application, please visit: www.mspca.org/barncat

Guinea pigs need a minimum 6.5 sqft wire cage (30”x36”) for 1-2 guinea pigs but preferably 10.5 sqft (30”x50”) for 2 guinea pigs and a minimum 8 sqft for 3 guinea pigs but preferably 13 sqft (30”x62”).

Rats are nocturnal, highly social and extremely intelligent animals! Due to the highly social nature of rats we prefer to match them with homes with existing rats, or to adopters looking to take home two or more rats. Rats can be food driven (and great foragers!) making them excellent animals to train. We always recommend the use of positive reinforcement training with your animals, and are happy to provide more information on this topic.

We recommend providing a safe indoor enclosure that allows the rat plenty of space to exercise. The minimum cage size should be 2’x2.5’x2’, with good ventilation (no glass enclosures) and must have a solid base. Preferably the shelter includes multiple levels, with appropriate use of linens or paper bedding and lots of rat appropriate toys. Rats should never be housed with other animals, each species should always have its own housing.

The needs of each rat are unique and if you have questions about the right type of enclosure for the rat you are interested in, please let us know in your inquiry! We are happy to provide guidance and advice.

Savage and Wilford are a bonded pair!

Guinea pigs can make wonderful pets! They are very social creatures which means that they generally need at least one companion! Of course guinea pigs should only be kept with other piggies of the same sex. A pair of guinea pigs needs at minimum 10.5 sq. feet of cage space, or roughly 30″ x 50″ with a solid bottom, but more room is always encouraged! Guinea pigs can be quite noisy which can be lovely as long as you are expecting it!

Meet Deniro! He’s happy, bouncy, and super wiggly. Deniro loves to play and is full of energy so he’d make a great companion for a hiker, runner, or just an admirer of the great outdoors. We think Deniro would be most happy in a quieter setting – he seems to be a little worried by the traffic here at the shelter. He could live with a well-matched dog friend with thoughtful introductions, but would be just as happy as your one and only. While Deniro has his playful side, he also gets SUPER snuggly once he’s gotten his activity needs met! Kids in the home should be able to participate in training and unphased by a bouncy pup and their goofy antics.

If you think this dog could be a good match for your home and would like to learn more, stop by MSPCA Northeast Animal Shelter. We have open adoption hours 11:30am-5pm daily – no appointment or application needed.

Meet Beefsteak, Beans and Hamlet! This trio is looking to find their forever home either together or on their own depending if it’s the right fit! These boys are a bit wary when it comes to people but we think with time (and treats!) they will feel more comfortable with their human family.

These three pigs will need room to roam, graze, root, and wallow. A proper pig proof enclosure and fencing is a must with access to an indoor space for shelter as needed.

If any of these pigs interest you please submit and adoption inquiry to discuss them further.

Mischief came to shelter for not getting along with some other parakeets in a previous home, but that behavior has not been seen in the shelter setting. Mischief may do well with other parakeets in a home, and likely do best in a larger than typical space to allow Mischeif distance from other parakeets as needed.

Budgerigars, the most common parakeet we see, are native to Australia where they live in massive flocks in the grasslands. Parakeets tend to be docile, gentle, can be easy to tame and can even talk! Despite their small size, these birds can have large vocabularies and can make a wonderful training companion. We recommend that parakeets live in pairs or groups whenever possible. Parakeets can live up to 7-15 years with proper nutrition and care, and can be a loyal companion.

We recommend a cage that is at least 27”x24” (Width x depth) with a maximum of ½” bar spacing. Cages should include lots of perches, trays for food/water and lots of toys for enrichment. Nests can be provided but should be removed if any females begin to lay eggs. We do not recommend a seed only diet as it can lead to malnutrition and other potential issues, please consult your vet for specific diet recommendations.

The needs of each parakeet are unique and if you have questions about the right type of enclosure for the parakeet you are interested in, please let us know in your inquiry! We are happy to provide guidance and advice.

Chencho

American Bully

Have you ever dreamt of having your very own house hippo? Well dream no further! Chencho is the chunkiest house hippo on the block and is ready to dazzle you with his ample good looks and charm. This large couch potato would make a great companion in a variety of households as long as there are plenty of scritches available for him! He is not a fan of sharing his favorite things, so he would do best in a home without young children. He might be able to live with another dog with plenty of management. Chencho seems to have some allergies so it will be important to have a close relationship with a veterinarian to keep him feeling his best. Regardless, he promises to wiggle his way into your heart in no time!

If you think you are a good fit and would like to learn more, stop by our Boston Adoption Center. We have open adoption hours Tuesday-Sunday from 12pm-3pm no appointment needed to speak to a staff person regarding available dogs.

If you’ve always wanted backyard goats, look no further! We have several wethers who are looking for new homes.

Goats are very social animals and these Mini LaMancha boys get along quite well, so we are aiming to send them home as a group but are open to sending them home in pairs depending on what you’re looking for! If you already have a herd, we recommend these boys going with other horned goats.

They will require a fenced in area with appropriate shelter for inclement weather. Since goats are considered livestock, you will need to check with your town to make sure they are allowed in your area. We’re here to support you and answer whatever questions you may have, so please reach out if you think you could offer a loving home to some of these wonderful goats!
