Story
In the wide world of cats, orange tabby fellas have a certain reputation: Theyre often gentle gents who love oh so sweetly and loyally. And, as far as were concerned, Jakes photo might aswell hang by that definition! He is such a character that will just follow you around and be underfoot at all times, says his foster dad. He looks up at you with his sweet face and justwants all of the pets. Originally from a large outdoor colony, Jake will need some time to acclimate to his forever home just as he did with his Whiskers foster family. He would thrive inquieter surroundings with a friendly cat or two to show him the ropes. But once he does? His loving, funny personality will shine. Once he gets to know you, he becomes a Velcro cat thatdoes not like to let you out of his sight. - Buzz.

Story
When Bootsie first arrived from a large outdoor colony being TNRed, she tended to hide in her kitty cave. But her foster family refused to give up on this precious girl, and now? Bootsie is very friendly and playful, reports her initial foster dad. She just loves to be around people and eats up any attention she can get. She also loves to socialize with her feline foster siblings, lead the pack in batting toys around the floor, and catch a little TV. She loves to watch Cat TV and look out windows at wildlife, says her current foster mom. Bootsie is a flight risk who may try to slip out a door, so her future family will need to be mindful of that to keep her safe. She also sometimes gives love nips to remind humans to pet her, so a home with older children is best. But otherwise, Bootsie is a shoe-in to be the fun, cuddly cat youre looking for! - Buzz.

Story
The kittens in the Game Night Litter are just as classic and fun as their name implies. But word is that Scrabble gets bonus points for being especially bold and energetic. Scrabble is probably the most playful and confident kitten in his litter, says his foster mom. Thats especially true when his favorite sparkle balls or wand toys are in sight or another kittens tail that just begs to be pounced on. Scrabble loves to pick up a sparkle ball and carry it around in his mouth! He'll drop it on the floor, bat it around for a second, then pick it back up and run away with it. Happy-go-lucky Scrabble would do well in almost any loving home, but especially one with plenty of toys and a playmate to share them with. Are you on board to give him his best life? - Buzz.

Story
Sometimes our volunteers just seem to be in the right place at the right time. Such was the case with precious Reba! When we were invited back to a completed TNR project, we spotted this multi-colored beauty only she wasnt so beautiful back then. She was very thin and covered in her own drool, recalls her foster mom. When Rebas caretaker, a veteran with disabilities, gave his blessing for Whiskers to take her, our veterinarian pinpointed stomatitis as her health issue, which meant she needed to have all her teeth removed. It was a big surgery and recovery, but this pretty laidback cat has taken it in stride and is finally ready for a home of her very own. Rebas favorite hobby is sleeping adorably in a sunny spot and being her humans center of attention, so her foster dad thinks she would prefer to be someones only feline friend. Did Rebas meant-to-be rescue happen because shes meant to be yours? - Buzz.

Story
In this years Olympic-sized pool of kittens, Spitz is a standout with his sleek black coat and his athletic abilities. He most definitely lives up to his namesake, gold-medalist swimmer Mark Spitz although our Spitz would have a knack for a different event. He is a very energetic boy that is always on the lookout for a wrestling match, says his foster dad. Spitz was born at Whiskers to a mama cat taken in from a large outdoor colony that we assisted to completely spay or neuter, and he isnt wasting a moment of this chance at a better life. He is always in constant state of play. He and his two brothers are quite the handful with their rowdiness! In fact, this little champ would do great anywhere for a forever home. Can Spitz make a splash in yours? - Buzz.

Story
Phelps approaches life with the spirit of a champion. After all, hes named for the legendary Olympic swimmer, Michael Phelps! But our Phelps couldve had a sink-or-swim future without the intervention of trap-neuter-return. He was born in Whiskers TNRs care to a mom from a large outdoor colony that has since been 100 percent spayed and neutered, explains his foster dad. Today, Phelps claims a spot on the Whiskers leader board for that handsome buff coat of his as well as his playful antics especially if he can give his littermates a good-natured smackdown. He loves to play Wrestlemania with his two brothers. He would do great anywhere that he has a wrestling partner. Can he bounce off the ropes into your arms? - Buzz.
