Our 95.9 WATD Pet of the Week is debuted every Monday morning at 9:20 on The South Shore’s Morning News.
Red is a shy and quiet cat, ready to find his new fur-ever home so he can get comfortable and come out of his shell a little bit. He has been hanging out at the Quincy Animal Shelter and has been expressing a more reserved personality, but is very sweet and affectionate once he gets to know someone. That someone could be you!
Red has some special needs that he takes medication for, Quincy Animal Shelter says:
He has FLUTD(Feline Lower Unitary Tract Disease) this means is more prone or unitary crystals and blockages. He’s on a special diet for this. Stress can also increase his likelihood of a blockage or crystals. So he is on medication to help reduce his stress as well.
Red will be a great addition to your home and become your best friend. It also helps Red to relax if you have a nice supply of catnip! Red should be the only cat in the household because of his urinary condition and the need to monitor his urine output.
Please consider being the safe space and comfort that Red is seeking!
If you’re ready to bring a new friend home, then please contact adoptions@quincyanimalshelter.org.

Fees and Donations:
Your non-refundable adoption fee helps us to continue our high level of care for all the animals. QAS accepts cash and credit cards.
All Quincy Animal Shelter residents are current on vaccinations appropriate for their age before being cleared for adoption. All of our animals are spayed/neutered prior to being adopted. Kittens are spayed/neutered when they reach a minimum weight of 2 lbs. and are at least 8 weeks old.
Please read these adoption considerations here before considering adoption
All adopters must agree:
To provide a loving home, including proper medical care and humane treatment at all times.
The animal will not be used for experimentation or be sold.
Dogs will not be allowed off leash outdoors except in a completely fenced in area.
The animal will receive annual veterinary checkups that include rabies vaccinations as required by law.
Dogs will be licensed annually as required by local law.
If for any reason the adopter needs to give up the animal, it will be returned to Quincy Animal Shelter.
Ownership of the animal will be terminated if at any time the adopter does not live up to these terms.
Quincy Animal Shelter does not sell animals. Adoption donations are tax-deductible, voluntary contributions, and are not refundable under any circumstances.
We always try to foster kittens out/away from the shelter. We are always looking for Foster Care Volunteers. It is usually a 5 to 8 week period. We provide food, litter and medical care. We also take care of the adoptions. All you need is a separate area from your own animals and some TLC. We would prefer that you live in the Quincy area. In case of medical emergency, we like to have people who live nearby and could transport the animal to either the shelter or one of the area vets used by QAS. If you are interested, please click here for more information.
