Story
Have you ever spoken to a cat? Well, here's your chance! Souki is quite a talker and needs a listener. Souki came to SPCA Florida from Polk County Animal Control and is now looking for a forever home. She has been waiting since Jan. 2024! She can be shy at first, but once she's comfortable she will show you affection and even start a conversation with you. And if you get a little nibble, don't fret, that's her way of showing you love. She is comfortable with other cats, and she loves her chicken. If you'd like a talking partner, then come visit Souki in Tinker's Legacy Cattery at SPCA Florida Monday -Friday 11AM to 6PM and Saturday - Sunday from 11:00AM to 5:00PM.

Story
This is Adam and Eve. They are a bonded pair, so they need to be adopted together. They are very sweet kitties and love attention once they warm up to you. The previous owner could no longer care for them as she traveled so much, and she couldn't give them the attention they needed. Due to circumstances, Adam and Eve may be subject to a pre home visit. Please only ask about them if you have room for both and remember when adopting a bonded pair. If one is returned, they both must be returned.

My name is Gemma, I love attention ,exploring, climbing on you, being petted. However I don't really like being picked up or held. I'm more of an on my own terms kitty. So be careful cause I fight to get down if you pick me up and I may unintentionally scratch you. I need a forever home with someone whom has patience and understanding. Maybe one day I won't mind being held. Please consider giving me a forever home with you!

Don't you just love tuxedo kitties?! This is Mia, who is available for adoption. She's a true Tuxedo with her shiny black and white coat, white socks, little white stripe, and the most adorable black heart on her nose. Mia is about a year and 6 months old. She's loving and playful but is very much independent. Mia is used to living in her foster home with two small dogs and two other cats but would prefer to be the only pet in the household. She would also do better with older kids. Contact us if you're interested in a meet and greet with Mia.
