“When we visited in person, we knew we couldn’t leave him behind,” they shared. Once the adoption was finalized, and Mohawk, Oneonta and Delaware prepared to leave the shelter after more than three years, it was a moment of celebration. Not only had they found a loving home, but they were going to share it together — something no one had dared to dream of when they first arrived. “Adopting three adult cats together is rare,” noted Dorit. “We’ve done triple adoptions before, but they were usually kittens. For three seniors, especially ones with such a history, to find a home together — it’s extraordinary.”
Though the adjustment has been gradual, their new family has created a calm, quiet space where the cats are opening up on their own terms and told us: “These three may never be lap cats, but we have infinite patience for them, and we believe they’ll thoroughly enjoy the rest of their lives with us.”
