Story
Gizmo is a very cuddly, little boy.  He loves to chase his sister around and run through tunnels after her.  He is still trying to figure out how to be a graceful cat and currently prefers to hop around.  He absolutely loves other cats and will need to be adopted into a home with another young cat or with another cat from the rescue (his sister would be perfect).  He has not met a dog so we don't know how he would do but with his young age he might learn to adjust to a calmer, respectful dog.  He also has not met children but if they play with him he will most likely be easily won over.  He is fixed, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped.  His adoption fee has been covered thanks to very generous donation through our Home for the Holidays Event.

Story
Buttercup is a very sweet girl who wants attention but she is very shy and it takes her a while to warm up to her people.  She will follow you around but is hesitant to be pet.  But when she finds her person she melts into them when they do pet her, especially scratches.  She is always in the same room as you though.  She loves other cats and needs to be adopted into a home with another young cat or kitten to help her feel safe and confident, and of course a playmate.  She is the first one to go out and explore her surroundings as well and absolutely loves the cat trees in the house.  She is not a fan of the dogs and while she is okay with kids younger kids might be too much for her.   She is VERY vocal when it comes to dinner time so don't worry, she won't let you forget.  She is absolutely gorgeous also and pictures don't do her justice, she has the softest fur and amazing marking.  She also looks like she will grow into a large cat.  She is fixed, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped. Her adoption fee is $200 To adopt Buttercup email us at kakf3133@gmail.comNovember 27, 2024, 9:35 pm

Story
Molly is a young tabby kitten, with some Mainecoon markings.  She was one of a litter of five kittens that was found, along with her mother, living outdoors.  She has been fostered by a family and kept with her mother and siblings.  She is definitely the smartest of the litter, and that kitten that is in charge.  She is fearful of new people and needs a family that will be patient with her and give her time to warm up.  She plays with toys and enjoys sneak attacking and wrestling with her siblings.  She also really likes the dogs in her foster home and can usually be found snuggling up to them or playing with them.  She has been fostered in a high energy household and does well with chaos and children of all ages.  She is fixed, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped. Her adoption fee is $200 To adopt Molly, email us at kakf3133@gmail.comNovember 13, 2024, 10:30 pm

Story
Malak is a young, male, tabby kitten.  He is one of a litter of 5 kittens who was found, alongside their mother, living outside.  He is being fostered by a family and kept with his mother and siblings.  He is quite honestly just the sweetest boy.  He is low energy, laid back, and a bit shy, but loves to cuddle.  He will need a family that is willing to be patient and respect his introverted nature, letting him warm up in his own time.  He enjoys wrestling with his siblings and chasing wand toys.  He has grown tolerant of the dogs in his foster home and seems fine with other cats and kids of all ages.  He is fixed, up to date on vaccines and microchipped. His adoption fee is $200 To adopt Malak, email us at kakf3133@gmail.comNovember 15, 2024, 11:06 am

Story
Mila is a sweet young female tabby.  Though she can be timid at first, she loves attention, play and food and can easily be won over.  She will chase toys on a string like her life depends on it but also loves to cuddle.  As soon as you lay down she's ready to bump you with her head and flop on you for pets.  She's also possibly the softest kitty ever and gives gentle love bites and kisses.  She's also got a cute long tail, isn't a picky eater, and isn't destructive.  She would love a friendly cat to snuggle and play with and has been okay around dogs.  She's great at hitting the litterbox, generally quiet (except for meals and on car rides) and such a beautiful, soft and wonderful low maintenance companion.  She's fixed, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped. Her adoption fee is $200 To adopt Mila email us at kakf3133@gmail.comJanuary 6, 2025, 11:31 am
