Story
Hi, I’m Winter ❄️ I’m a three-year-old white cat with soft fur and a calm, gentle soul. One of my favorite things about myself is my eyes—one is blue like a winter sky, and the other is green like fresh spring grass. People say they make me extra special, but I think they just help me see the world in my own unique way. I enjoy quiet moments, cozy naps, and watching everything from a sunny window. I can be a little shy at first, but once I feel safe, I’m sweet, loyal, and love gentle attention. I’m not too wild—I prefer peaceful company and a warm place to call my own. If you’re looking for a calm, loving companion who will stay by your side and make your home feel cozy, I might be the cat you’ve been waiting for. 🐾 I am located at the Shelter Pet Adoption Center inside Petco at 10017 Biddick Ln. Huntersville, NC 28078. If you are interested in meeting me, email ncteam@austinpetsalive.org or call (704) 266-3647

Story
Hi, I’m Peach 🍑 I’m a three-year-old buff and white kitty with a soft coat and a gentle, loving nature. I have a warm, calm personality and enjoy taking life at a relaxed pace. I love cozy spots, quiet moments, and spending time near people where I can feel safe and comfortable. I can be a little shy at first, but once I get to know you, I’m very sweet and enjoy gentle pets and companionship. I’m not overly demanding—I’m happiest just being nearby, sharing space, and enjoying the calm together. If you’re looking for a mellow, affectionate cat who will bring a soft, comforting presence into your home, I might be your perfect Peach. 🐾💛 I am located at the Shelter Pet Adoption Center inside Petco at 10017 Biddick Ln.

Story
We are delighted to introduce you to Jenna, this sweet, beautiful tortie-point siamese lady looking for her forever home! Jenna was rescued from an area the rescue has been helping for the past year. One thing that rings true for all the cats we have rescued in this area is that they have had a rough start in life but have come out of it so loving and affectionate. They all are sweet babies and Jenna is no different! Jenna came into the rescues care pregnant and we have given her and her babies a safe and loving place to relax and be until their forever families come along. Jenna gave birth to 4 beautiful babies: Tegan, Tilly, Tory, and Tess. She has done a wonderful job being their mom, but she is ready for the empty nester life and retirement! Jenna is still a young lady, approximately a little over a year, maybe close to 2 years old. Her life started out living outside and seldomly cared for. Now, she thrives in her foster home where she is cared for and loved endlessly! This is the kind of life she deserves and we all are excited to meet her future forever family! As far as Jenna's personality goes, she is a little shy at first introductions (understandable) but she blossoms into a very loving and affectionate lady. She does not like being picked up and placed anywhere, she would prefer to take herself wherever she needs to go. Aside from that, she adores being loved on and LOVES being brushed. No joke, she is crazy about it! Jenna will be eligible for adoption June 26th and after. She is up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, negative for FeLV FIV and heartworms, microchipped and will be spayed (here soon, prior to adoption). Jenna is currently fostered in a home with other kitties and does great. She has not been introduced to dogs currently.

Story
***Born 4/4/25 - Recent photos will be uploaded soon!**** We are so happy to introduce you to this pretty little girl! Tess is one of four kittens in Jenna's litter and our only tabby out of her babies! Tess may be the most timid of her siblings, but she’s also the quirkiest — in the best way! Don't let initial shyness discourage you from this one. With big, expressive eyes and quiet curiosity, one of her fosters swears she looks like a tiny barn owl… while another insists she’s part bat, thanks to her habit of flipping upside down and wedging herself into odd little corners just for fun. Her favorite hangout? A cat tree tucked into a corner — her personal fortress and launch pad. She’ll happily climb, leap down, and repeat the routine like it’s her own private game. And when she’s not doing acrobatics, you’ll find her playing with anything she can chase in circles: a butterfly spinner, string toys under covers, and especially the tiered ball track she shares with her sister, Tilly. Tess may take a little time to build confidence in her new home, but she’s full of personality and loves entertaining herself in silly, unexpected ways. With patience and a cozy corner to call her own, she’s sure to win your heart. Tess has been spayed, microchipped, and up to date on age appropriate vaccinations. She is negative for FIV, FeLV, and heartworms. To adopt Tess or any of our other babies, please send in an application here: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/NLCR/Cat Upcoming Adoption Events: July 6th - PetSmart - Mooresville 12pm-4pm July 12th - PetSmart - Matthews 12pm-4pm July 13th - PetSmart - Mooresville 12pm-4pm

Look at this handsome man! Oh my goodness, we are so delighted to introduce you to Kenny, the sweetest little boy. Kenny came to our rescue after his previous owner was unable to care for him and their other kitties due to unfortunate life circumstances. Kenny is in great health, loving and socialized, and ready to find his forever family! His foster parents say that he is the epitome of the cat that is ready to be your best friend, your little buddy, and favorite pal. He is a curious boy that craves attention from his humans. Kenny is EXTREMELY sweet, loves hugs, and wants to be beside you at all times. He is fostered in a home with other cats too and he does fantastic with them! We have not experienced this ourselves, but his previous owner did state that he was accustomed to the dog in the home and did great! We are sure with proper introductions, Kenny can get along with any furry friend! Kenny is neutered, microchipped and up to date on his vaccinations. He also tested negative for FIV, FeLV, and heartworms! He is ready to find his loving forever home. If you would like to make his dreams come true, submit an application with us here! https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/NLCR/Cat

Story
Hi, I’m Vanilla! I’m a 2-year-old orange cat with a sweet nature and a soft spot for attention. I like to greet people with gentle curiosity and I warm up quickly to kind voices and calm pets. I enjoy playing with toys, watching the world from a window, and then curling up for a nice, cozy nap. I’m past the kitten craziness but still have plenty of playful moments to share. I’m looking for a forever home where I can feel safe, loved, and part of the family—maybe that’s with you! 🧡 I am located at the Shelter Pet Adoption Center inside Petco at 10017 Biddick Ln. Huntersville, NC 28078. If you are interested in meeting me, email ncteam@austinpetsalive.org or call (704) 266-3647
