Story
Wiley is a sweet, playful, and cuddly young cat. She is white/black, with fluffy long hair length (with some tiger stripe markings). We think she is around 12-14 months old . She is healthy to the best of our knowledge, eats/drinks dry cat food/water appropriately, and is litter trained. She has had wet food, but not on a daily basis. She plays well with her sibling and other cats, and has been in a smoke-free household with kids age 11 and older with no issues. She does not have any shots or other vet care (due to our personal financial abilities). We are adopting her out following the loss of a family member who was their owner. We want to see her go to a loving home where she will be an indoor pet and will be properly cared for and cherished. If you would like to meet her, please contact me. We are located in Eastern Jackson County, near Blue Springs and Grain Valley. Thank you! :-)

Story
Vega is a sweetheart, but she definitely thrives in a single pet home. She likes to cuddle and to lay around all day, she is quite lazy. She is house trained and unfortunately loves people food, so she will likely be right by your side while you eat:) she's very loving, she's just skittish.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Please contact Teri (terik@tarasdream.org) for more information about this pet. About T.A.R.A. | Adopt | Volunteer | Donate Shadow is a sweet cat looking for his forever home after being abandoned by his previous owner. Shadow is a friendly, outgoing 8 year old male. He is shy at first, but once he trusts you he will warm up to you. He enjoys rubbing his chin on his fosters hand for affection.  He will probably do best as an only cat. Shadow is a diabetic kitty. Shadow is currently with a foster family, and they are doing a great job keeping  his diabetes under control by closely monitoring his diet, blood sugar and insulin levels daily. Shadow will need this daily care to keep him healthy and stable so he can enjoy many more years. The foster family can give you all the details needed to care for this sweet guy! Adoption Fee: $75 TARA's adoption fee includes: spay/neuter, age-appropriate vaccinations, microchip, FIV/FeLV Combo test, and deworming. A two-week trial is included as part of the adoption. Because we do not know the background of many of our cats, we cannot guarantee exact age or breed. Adoption centers may not have a volunteer present to open the cat enclosures, and we have foster homes located throughout the KC metro area. Please fill out an application if you'd like to meet this cat. Interested in this pet? Please fill out a non-binding application. Our goal is to find life-long matches between animals and families, and the application provides us with a lot of information to help us help you find that match!  November 3, 2024, 1:21 pm
