Calico kittens & cats in Marysville, Ohio

FIV+Meet Blanche, a stunning calico beauty with a striking mix of black, orange, and white fur. Born around March 8, 2021, Blanche joined our adoption center on March 16, 2024, after being caught as a stray in Blacklick by our dedicated TNR (Trap, Neuter, Release) volunteers. Despite her life on the streets, Blanche is not feral. She has an independent spirit that makes her an intriguing and charming companion. Blanche is spayed, vaccinated, and has tested negative for FeLV. Additionally, she is FIV+ (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus positive), which means she has a weakened immune system compared to FIV-negative cats. FIV+ cats can live with FIV- as long as the cats get along and are both spayed/neutered.  A deep bite is the only way it would spread with altered cats. Blanche is shy and tends to be reserved around new people. However, if you approach her slowly, she enjoys a good head scratch and will purr contentedly. She may not be the most attention-seeking kitty, but she still appreciates love and TLC. Her friendship is won through gentle pets and tasty snacks, making the bond you form with her all the more special. Blanche got her name because of her beautiful white patches of fur that reminded our volunteers of fresh snow. Her name, meaning "white" in French, seemed like a perfect fit for her unique and elegant appearance. If you’re looking for a beautiful and self-reliant feline friend, Blanche may just be the perfect addition to your family. Come meet her and experience her unique charm for yourself! **Come meet me at the cage free Adoption Center! All cats are spayed or neutered, vaccinated and tested for FIV/FeLV.

She loves being talked to and will answer back with the sweetest little meows, letting you know she’s listening.

DOB: 4/18/2024 Um, hi there. I’m Reba. I guess you could say I’m kind of like the shy kid in the back of the class, trying not to get noticed. Everything here is so new and busy, and honestly? It’s a little overwhelming. I’ve had a rough start, so I’m still figuring out who I can trust. But deep down, I really want someone to see past my nerves and give me a chance. I know I’m a sweet, loving girl—I just need a little time to show it. What I’m really looking for is someone patient, someone who understands what it’s like to feel a little out of place. If you can give me a quiet space and a lot of kindness, I think we could be best friends. So…if you think you might be the one to help me come out of my shell, I’d really like to meet you. I promise I’m worth the wait. **Come meet me at the cage free adoption center! All cats are spayed or neutered, vaccinated and tested for FIV/FeLV.

DOB: 1/19/20204 She sat in the quiet corners of the world, watching, waiting. Marengo had never known the warmth of a forever home, the soft touch of a hand she could trust. At just a year old, life had taught her to be cautious, to keep her heart guarded like a secret only time could unlock. But love—true, patient love—has a way of breaking down walls. And Marengo? She’s ready to learn. She’s still finding her way, still learning that kindness doesn’t come with conditions. With time, with gentle whispers and understanding, she will bloom, revealing the sweet, tender soul beneath her shy exterior. Maybe you’re the one who can show Marengo that love isn’t something to fear—it’s something to embrace. Maybe, just maybe, her story is waiting to begin… with you.  Come meet me at the cage-free Adoption Center!

DOB: 1/31/2010 In a world where forever homes aren’t always forever, Kiara thought she had it all—a loving family, a cozy spot by the window, and plenty of Sheba to snack on. But after 13 years, her world was turned upside down when she was brought to the shelter. Her owners said she didn’t get along with their other cats, but in reality, Kiara just wanted a little space to shine. Now, at 15 years old, this dilute calico darling is ready for a heartwarming new chapter—one filled with gentle pets, all the attention she craves, and, of course, a lifetime supply of Sheba and dry food (her absolute favorites!). Will you be the one to give Kiara the happy ending she deserves? Visit her today at the adoption center and make this the season of love, hope, and second chances. &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143 we posted a video of her on our social media you can view here: https://www.instagram.com/colonycats/reel/DGqaPNuvGaj/ ed and tested for FIV/FeLV. **If interested in adopting me, please fill out an online adoption application at https://colonycats.org/adoption_app.html to expedite the process.
