Story
Meet Pinto, a 4-year-old brown tabby cat who has found himself back at our facility after his adopter's health started to decline. Pinto first came to us in May of 2020 with his three brothers, all of whom were clearly frightened and unsure of the world. Thanks to one of our dedicated staff members who stepped up to foster and socialize the litter, his brothers eventually came out of their shells. However, Pinto remained cautious and still carried that cautiousness into his adulthood, but once Pinto warms up he is putty in your hands! Re-entering the shelter has been challenging for Pinto, and we are hopeful to find him a fresh start. Pinto does well with other cats and would thrive in a home where a confident feline could show him the ropes. When Pinto is happy, he is sure to let you know as he will begin to drool with happiness, kind of gross but also endearing. With the right environment and a bit of time, Pinto is sure to blossom into a wonderful companion. If you are interested in meeting any of our animals, we encourage you to first visit our website and submit an adoption application: acskc.org/adoption/adoption-applicationOnce your adoption application has been approved, we will call you to set up an appointment to meet with the pet! We welcome adopters from out of state to apply! _When it comes to our pets, we're all-inclusive!

Meet Shelby! Although Shelby is 14 years old, she remains a playful and energetic companion. She and her sister share a close bond, relying on each other. When they first arrived, both were withdrawn and timid. However, Shelby has since emerged from her shell and now actively seeks attention on a daily basis. She will vocalize her demands by yelling at you and firmly headbutting your arm or hand. If you are interested in meeting these two sisters please come by today!

Story
Meet Freckles!Freckles is classified as a “senior” cat but man oh man she does not look like one. She is sure the type to look great for her 15-year-old age. Freckles arrived at the shelter on 10/31/23 due her previous owner becoming homeless and unable to keep her and the other cats in the home. She was temporarily housed by a family member but was unable to stay long term. Unfortunately, the person who brought Freckles in did not know very much about her personality. During her stay with us we have gathered that Freckles does indeed need a quiet and calm home due to her fear of all the strangeness in a new environment. She is currently enjoying one of the quietest rooms in the shelter and has a lovely set up that gives her the comfort of hiding if she feels overwhelmed but also the freedom to come out if she is feeling confident. Her ideal home would have older children and easy-going feline friends around her age group. She will require a few weeks to settle into a new atmosphere. If you feel you are a perfect match for her, please give us a call at 410-827-7178 to set up a meet and greet.

Tiny is true to his name. He may be small, but what he lacks in size he sure makes up for in personality! This little dynamo loves to dart around the house, play with toys, and follow his favorite people. He has been good with kids in his foster home and would likely be a good candidate for a house with another kitten/cat or gentle dog given a proper introduction.

Story
Meet Wren! Normally we don`t do bios on kittens but Wren we just have to tell you about. Wren is a super sweet and very playful kitten. Coming in as a stray he was adopted but unfortunately returned due to something called a prolapse. We fixed his prolapse and should not have any further issues with it however we want all interested in him to know about his unique medical issue. Now don`t think this has slowed him down or stopped him from being a totally normal kitten otherwise. He is!! He wants attention the second you open the kennel door then any part of your hand or arm becomes a toy :) We adore this goofball and we hope you feel the same. Come by to meet him or put in an application!

Story
Meet Benny Boy! Benny Boy is a shy little one who is unsure about he feels towards people. While we have been working with him while he has been here, he prefers his independence. He will still come up to you and see what you have or just sniff you. However if you attempt to pet him it is like he was zapped. He jumps around like he is on a trampoline! He likes to go wide eyed while backing up if you try to touch him. So this handsome guy would do best in a barn home or anywhere that he can be a working cat. If this is what you are looking for please call us at 410-827-7178 or fill out the adoption application.
