Calico kittens & cats in Marietta, Ohio

Stella is a beautiful female Calico kitten who was surrendered by her owner on July 24, 2025 along with her two sisters (Meeko and RJ) and her brother (Hammy). The kittens were 4-months old at that time. Stella has a black/orange/white short smooth coat in a calico pattern, a long tail, and a classic black/orange Calico face with golden eyes, a wide orange stripe on her muzzle/forehead, and long white whiskers. Stella was spayed on September 23, 2025 and was also given rabies vaccine. She weighed 5 lbs that day. Stella and her siblings dearly love each other, but they are still working on their social skills with regard to their people friends. They have made progress in our shelter since their arrival, but they are not yet ready to be held in your arms or snuggle up on your lap. We believe that they would do much better in a home environment with a family or individual who has the experience/patience to let them acclimate to their new home (realizing they may choose to hide for awhile until you gain their trust). The siblings have been separated into pairs so that they will have a best friend for comfort/security: [Stella & Meeko] and [Hammy & RJ] Stella and her sister Meeko (a beautiful Chocolate Point Siamese kitten) are sharing a cage and are quite compatible. They are being listed as a bonded pair and will be required to be adopted together.

Joyce is a stunning 1-1/2 year old female Calico kitty who was brought to the HSOV on December 31, 2025 along with her five companions/housemates (Dustin, Erica, Hopper, Max, and Robin). Unfortunately the individual(s) who left them in our care did not provide any information about them .. This little lady has an orange/white/brown short smooth coat in a calico pattern, a long ringed tail, and a beautifully-marked calico face with golden/bronze eyes, a pink nose, and long white whiskers. Joyce was given vaccinations, Pyrantel wormer and flea treatment on December 31, 2025/ She weighed 7 lbs that day. Joyce was given booster vaccines on January 14, 2026. Joyce is sharing a large cage with Max (a female buff tabby/white kitty) who had been brought in with the group of six. Joyce and Max are rather shy, so they have been kept together so that they can provide comfort/security for each other. Most of these photos of Joyce were taken on January 2nd 2026 soon after her arrival .. And a few were taken on January 23-24, 2026 after she and her best friend Max were moved to another area of our shelter which was warmer and a bit more quiet.. Joyce will be spayed in the near future (tentatively on February 9, 2026) and will be ready to find a loving home with a special someone who will have the patience to let her acclimate to her new surroundings on her own time. Naturally we'd love to see Joyce and her bestie Max adopted together, so they are being listed as a bonded pair. Joyce was spayed on February 9, 2026 and was also given rabies vaccine. She weighed 5.2 lbs that day.

They called the Olive Branch for help. I needed a safe place to take care of my babies. Both of my babies have long since been adopted, but here I am...waiting. I don't understand why. I'm a very nice kitty. I'm a litte bit shy at first, but I'm looking for ear scratches and attention in no time. I get along well with the other cats, and I don't seem to mind dogs, as long as they aren't too nosey.  I'll make a great companion for someone who is looking for a bright eyed girl like me! I have been spayed, combo tested and vaccinated. If you would like to meet me, call 304-652-1010 to set up a time.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 12, 2026, 8:22 am

Taylor (aka Lily) is a beautiful 3-1/2 year old female kitty who was surrendered by her owner on February 5, 2026 because she was moving to an assisted-living residence and was unable to take Taylor to the new location. Taylor has a dark brown tabby short smooth coat, a long ringed tail, and an adorable chubby face with golden eyes, a brown velvet nose, and extra-long white whiskers. This little sweetheart has a friendly, outgoing personality. Taylor is good with other cats and also with children. There weren't any dogs in the home, so we don't know how Taylor feels about canine friends. Taylor's previous owner indicated that she has been known to be a 'door dasher'. Taylor may look familiar to some of our HSOV Volunteers/Facebook followers since she was adopted from our shelter in August 2025. She has enjoyed the freedom of her very own home for the past six months and is sad to be back in a small cage, so we hope that Taylor will quickly find another great home. Taylor has already been spayed and is up-to-date on vaccinations including rabies vaccine. She weighs approximately 9 lbs.

Honey Mustard is an adorable 2-year old female kitty who was surrendered to the HSOV on January 6, 2026 by her owner because he was moving and couldn't take Honey Mustard and her three siblings ( Brown Mustard, Dijon Mustard, and Spicy Mustard) to the new residence. Honey Mustard has an orange-and-white short smooth coat in a marbled tabby pattern, a long ringed tail, and a beautiful face with golden eyes, a pink nose, and long white whiskers. She has a distinctive white spot (ulcer) on her left eye This little girl has a sweet disposition and a playful personality. She is good with other cats and also with children. Honey Mustard is faithfully litterbox trained. Honey Mustard was given vaccinations and Drontal dewormer on January 15, 2026. She was given booster vaccines on February 14, 2026. Honey Mustard weighed 4.7 lbs when she entered our shelter on January 6th. Honey Mustard was spayed on March 9, 2026 and was also given rabies vaccine. She weighed 6.8 lbs that day. Honey Mustard and her siblings (Brown Mustard, Dijon Mustard, and Spicy Mustard) are currently being showcased at WeLovPets (Lafayette Plaza, Marietta Ohio) where they are available for adoption through the HSOV. Please stop by that location to meet these adorable siblings in person and also the wonderful staff at WeLovPets who are wonderful supportive friends of our shelter.

Hamate (aka Hammy) is an adorable male kitten who was brought to the HSOV on August 20, 2025 along with his sister (Crista Galli) and their mother (Glory Pesto). This little family was found on Greene Street in Marietta, and Glory was doing her best to take care of her newborn babies who were just 5-days old at that time. Thankfully Glory and her kittens went home with one of our wonderful foster mothers on August 24th so that Gloria could raise her babies in a loving home environment instead of a small shelter cage. This little playboy has a black short smooth coat, a long tail, and a cute kitten face with golden eyes, a black velvet nose, and long black whiskers. Hamate was given vaccinations and Pyrantel wormer on October 19, 2025. He weighed 1.8 lbs that day. Hamate was given booster vaccines on November 9th and December 22, 2025. Glory Pesto, Hamate, and Crista Galli were returned to HSOV on December 23rd since the kittens were fully weaned. Hamate and Crista are currently sharing a double-wide cage in our Jungle Room. Momma Glory had her own private suite in the same room and was adopted on February 24, 2026). Hamate has a playful, outgoing personality. He loves to play silly kitten games and to snuggle up with his little sister Crista. Hamate is good with children as well as other cats. Hamate was neutered on March 9, 2026 and was also given rabies vaccine. He weighed 7 lbs that day. Hamate's sister (Crista Galli) was also spayed that day. Naturally we'd love to see him adopted with his sister since they are very bonded with each other. Hamate and Cristi Galli are currently sharing a large cat tower with two other kittens (Beelzebub and Honey Buns), and they all get along quite well.
