Story
Hi, I’m Natasha, and I’m here to tell you my story. I may only be 10 months old, but I’ve already been through quite an adventure. When I was just a tiny kitten, I was left behind at a nursing home with no one to care for me. It was scary and confusing being all on my own, but then a kind-hearted person found me and called the amazing folks at Cutie Cat Rescue. That’s when my journey toward finding a forever home truly began. I’ll admit, I can be a little shy when we first meet—but wouldn’t you be, too, after everything I’ve been through? Once I feel safe, though, my playful and spunky personality shines through! I love chasing toys, exploring new nooks and crannies, and sharing gentle headbutts with my favorite humans. One of my best qualities? I get along really well with other cats! If you have a feline friend at home, I’d love to meet them and show off my friendly side. I dream of a home where I can finally relax, play, and be loved for the sweet, quirky kitty I am. Could your home be my happily-ever-after? Let’s meet and find out! I promise to bring endless fun, a touch of sass, and all the love you could ever need. Adoption Application: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/TCCR/Cat

Story
Hi, I’m Lucy! I’m a 3-year-old sweetheart with a story that’s as heartwarming as it is hopeful. I was sadly abandoned behind a large shopping center, left to fend for myself and wonder why someone would leave me behind. But my luck turned around when a kind community cat feeder found me and gave me the chance I needed to start over. Now I’m safe, cared for, and ready to find my forever family. I’m a total cuddlebug who loves snuggling up in bed with my foster mom at night—it’s my favorite way to feel close and loved. During the day, you’ll find me showing off my playful and curious side, batting at toys, and exploring every nook and cranny. When I need to relax, I’ll stretch out in a sunny spot by the window, basking in the warmth and dreaming about my future family. I also get along wonderfully with other cats, so I’d be a great addition to a multi-cat household—or I’d love to soak up all the attention as your one-and-only. If you’re looking for a loving, loyal companion to brighten your life, I’m your girl. Let’s meet and make our happily-ever-after come true!

Story
Hi, I’m Harper! I’m a 10-month-old kitten with a gentle heart and a love for life’s simple pleasures. I was born at an apartment complex with my brother, Ozzie, and our amazing mom. When we were just 3 weeks old, a kind rescuer saved us, and now I’m on the hunt for my forever home. Could it be with you? I’m a laid-back girl who loves to take things slow and enjoy the moment. That doesn’t mean I don’t have a playful side, though! I adore feather toys and could happily bat them around for hours. When I’m not chasing feathers, I love curling up for a cozy cuddle session. I’ll melt into your arms and purr my heart out—it’s my favorite way to show how much I love you. I get along wonderfully with all cats and dogs, so I’d fit right into a multi-pet household. I’m also super curious and enjoy exploring my surroundings, but still like to balance my playtime with plenty of chill time. If you’re looking for a sweet, affectionate, and easygoing companion, I might be your perfect match. And if you’ve got room for my adventurous brother Ozzie, we’d love to stay together—two kittens are always better than one, right?

Hi there, I’m Bam Bam! I’m a 6-month-old kitten with a big heart and an even bigger personality. My story started at a grocery store, where I was born to a stray cat. Luckily, some amazing people rescued me when I was just a tiny kitten, and now I’m ready to find my forever family! I’m a funny little guy who loves to make my people laugh with my silly antics. Whether I’m zooming around the room, chasing my favorite toy, or “helping” you with your chores, I’m always up to something adorable. But don’t let my playful side fool you—I’m also a total cuddlebug. I love being loved, and I’ll happily snuggle up in your arms or curl up in your lap for some quality time together. Everyone who meets me says I have the sweetest personality ever. I’m super friendly, easygoing, and just want to be your best friend. If you’re looking for a kitten who’s equal parts playful and affectionate, I’m your guy Adoption Application: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/TCCR/Cat

Story
Hi, I’m Tootsie! I’m an 8-month-old kitten with a tender heart and a quiet charm. My story began in a Burger King parking lot, where I was abandoned alongside my sibling, Smudge. Thankfully, some kind people stepped in and rescued us, giving me the chance to find a loving forever home. I might be a little shy at first, but give me just a little time, and you’ll see my affectionate and loving side shine through. Once I feel safe, I’ll happily snuggle up and show you just how sweet I can be. I have a gentle, calm personality that’s perfect for someone who’s looking for a companion to share quiet moments with.

Story
Hi, I’m Jelly Bean! I’m a 10-month-old kitten with a big heart and an even bigger voice. My story started in a scary place—I was abandoned at a gas station as a tiny kitten on the 4th of July. The loud fireworks, the unfamiliar surroundings… I didn’t know what would happen to me. But thanks to some kind-hearted people, I was rescued and given the chance to find a real home. Now that I’m safe, I’ve blossomed into the cuddliest, most talkative little guy you’ll ever meet. I love chatting with my humans and will happily tell you all about my day—or just meow to let you know I’m thinking about you! I’m also a big fan of pets, snuggles, and all the love you can give. Playtime is another favorite of mine—I’ve got energy to burn and love chasing toys around the house. If you’re looking for a fun, affectionate, and vocal companion who will keep you entertained and shower you with love, I’m your perfect match. Adoption Application:

I'm such a sweetheart. I'm shy at first but once I've been given enough time to adjust and get to know you I will become your best friend. I came from an airport and was originally going to be TNRed but once my foster realized I wasn't actually feral I didn't have to go back and that was one of the best days of my life . I love giving headbutts. I just want to find my forever home where I will get all the love and attention. I get along with other friendly kitties but I would do just fine as an only furbaby too . Please consider adding me to your family.

My name is Berlin. I'm shy at first but once I've warmed up to you and come out of my shell I am the sweetest. I really like my chin rubs and love rolling over for some pets. I was apart of a TNR project but was way too friendly to be returned so have now been in foster care for 3 years. I get overlooked because I'm shy and because most people don't like black kitties but I really am such a great kitty. Please give me a chance. I promise you won't regret it.

Story
Misty started coming around my home in the fall of 2024. She would stay long enough to be fed then disappear. I knew she was female and that she didn't belong to any of my neighbors so I began to worry that she was an un-spayed stray. I didn't want her to have to deal with kittens in the winter so I took her in to my local shelter to take advantage of their TNR program. But to my surprise she was chipped! The shelter took her in, but unfortunately no owner came to get her. I felt terrible that she was stuck in the shelter and after nearly a month there I decided to take her in. Unfortunately my first resident cat has been overly aggressive towards her and all efforts to get them to cohabitate have failed. We've decided the best for Misty is to find her a loving home else where. She is a great companion cat, will keep you company but is not clingy. She's very affectionate and talkative. She is up to date on shots, and will be 2 years old in June.

Meet Kitty Girl! She’s a sweet, loving, and gentle cat who is about to have her babies. Unfortunately, we can’t keep her since we already have her siblings. We want to find her a caring home where she and her babies will be loved, but if you’re only interested in adopting the kittens, we can consider that too. Please help us give her the loving home she deserves!
