Story
Update: Katten is staying with a friend who is fostering him until he can find a permanent home, and he’s doing great! He gets along well with her 3 cats and a dog. Katten is an affectionate beauty who we’ve raised since he was 4 months old. If you’re looking for the typical orange tabby, he’s your guy. He loves to play with wand toys and toy mice, and he also loves to cuddle. At night he will oftentimes sleep in the spot right behind my knees. He is a social cat, but sometimes runs to hide when a new person comes to visit the house. Most of the time he will appear after realizing it’s safe to come out to meet the guests. He’s never had an accident outside of his litter box, and he’s never destructive to furniture. We unfortunately need to rehome him because he occasionally gets too aggressive and attacks/injures our kids. Whomever adopts him should not have children. He does well with other pets.

Story
Hi there! My name is Benji and I'm the sweetest cat you'll ever meet. I love my humans and make sure they always have an eager cuddle buddy available. I'm great at reminding them when they haven't given me enough attention for the day- I'll climb right on top of them and plop down so they HAVE to give me some love :). Other things I enjoy include laser pointers, wand toys, bird watching, treats, and toy mice. I'm a very playful little guy with some lingering kitten energy. I'm also an amateur explorer! I say amateur because I'm not always successful in getting to the new places I want to explore. But hey, I've only got one brain cell to work with so cut a guy some slack. While I love my human friends, I can be a bit picky when it comes to being around other cats. Sometimes I like them and sometimes I don't.

Story
I have two kittens I’d like to keep together. They are brothers and love to play and cuddle with eachother all day! They are litter box trained and I haven’t had any problems with them so far. They were dropped off at modern times cafe and I took them in for the time being, but I’m looking for a permanent home! I believe they are around a month old and haven’t gotten their shots/neutered (they’re a little too young). The adoption cost of $25 essentially just covers the food/litter I bought that you can have. I just want them to go to a loving home! Please reach out for more details.

Story
Greetings, peasants! It is I, Missy Mitsubishi, future monarch of your domain, writing to inform you that I seek a new queendom to rule over. At my prime age of 2 years old, I am young and beautiful and shall make biscuits on the throne for many years to come. I prefer to be the youngest and fairest in my land, and would do better with older subjects who respect my royal boundaries and body language.Though I am very curious about everything going on in my domain, it does take me a while to warm up to new people and places. Take heed, foolish peasants! Dare to pet me only if I deem you worthy! I require time and space at first, but if you pass my trials and I judge you well, I shall bestow my love and affection upon you by granting petting privileges and surveying my land whilst laying on top of you. Ruling over a queendom is hard work, and I love to unwind from royal business by chasing after cat toys and pouncing on them from my secret dungeon lair of cardboard. Some might call me clingy, but a queen must know her subjects business at all times lest they spark mischief, so following you around and meowing at you is just part of my royal duty and I take it very seriously. My preferred queendom is one that is calm and predictable, where I can feel comfortable ruling over my subjects in peace and harmony. If you choose to heed my summons, I promise to rule over you justly and wisely and long shall our fair land prosper together.Please visit https://felinerescue.org/all-cats/ to learn more about me and where I am located!

Story
Bubba is an outgoing and playful cat who likes to explore, nap, and eat, however he does require a food sensitivity diet. His favorite things are wand toys and catnip. Because of his curious nature, it is best to keep any food and house plants out of reach as he likes the soil and a leafy snack. While Bubba does love attention, he's pretty independent and prefers roaming and playing to cuddling. Bubba has a tendency to nip when he wants to play, so he would do best in a home without young kids. Overall, Bubba is a very sweet and silly cat that would make a great companion.Since he is positive for FeLV (Feline Leukemia Virus), he can only cohabitate with FeLV+ cats, dogs, or other non-feline animals. FeLV is species-specific and only contagious to cats; it is not contagious to humans, dogs, or other non-cat animals. He must always remain an indoor kitty and needs to be fed a nutritionally complete and balanced diet. For this reason, his adoption fee is waived.Please visit https://felinerescue.org/all-cats/ to learn more about me and where I am located!

*Hoagie and Rye are bonded and must be adopted together.*Hoagie and Rye Bread are a pair of inseparable and absolutely adorable kittens! They find joy in spooning, grooming, and engaging in playful activities together, with climbing and jumping being their forte during playtime. With their cuddly and friendly nature, they quickly become friends with anyone who comes their way. They enjoy cozying up in bed and eagerly roll over, inviting belly rubs. They also relish being cradled and rocked. And when it comes to entertainment, they can't resist watching TV, particularly the exciting game show 'The Price is Right!' Adopt this dynamic duo today and bring endless joy and entertainment to your home!Since Hoagie and Rye are positive for FeLV (Feline Leukemia Virus), they can only cohabitate with FeLV+ cats, dogs, or other non-feline animals, though. FeLV is species-specific and only contagious to cats; it is not contagious to humans, dogs, or other non-cat animals. Hoagie and Rye must always remain indoor kitties and need to be fed a nutritionally complete and balanced diet. Kittens can live up to 2 years old -- or sometimes even longer -- so we would love nothing more than for them to spend that time with a family of their own. For this reason, their adoption fee is waived.Please visit https://felinerescue.org/all-cats/ to learn more about me and where I am located!

*Hat Coat and Smiley Face are bonded and must be adopted together.*Hat Coat and Smiley Face are a pair of sweet four-year-olds. Once they get comfortable, they are playful, cuddly and entertaining. Their crackly meows are very cute and they love cuddling with each other. Smiley enjoys sitting on your lap when you're sitting, and on your chest when you're laying down. His motor like purr is charming as long as it doesn't keep you awake. He loves gently pawing at your face or any other bare skin. Hat prefers not to be picked up, but will generally accept face and back scratches. In the evening and mornings, he will often join Smiley and sit next to or on you. Both enjoy playing with small toys and occasionally wands. They startled easily, and appreciate a verbal heads up when you're approaching them. They both love getting brushed and have had no problems with using their litter box.They both love to watch birds and any outdoor activity through open screened windows. If you forget to open a window, they will urgently remind you. During their five month foster they interacted with two different dogs. The boys would tolerate or possibly enjoy living with a calm dog, who is not interested in barking at or chasing them. They have not interacted with any children and due to their easily startled nature would perhaps do best with children over 12. Though a bit shy at first, they become lovely interactive little companions and are ready to show their sweet natures.Special needs due to cataracts in his eyes that will need regular checkups with his veterinarian.Please visit https://felinerescue.org/all-cats/ to learn more about me and where I am located!

Story
This sweet and cuddly boy is looking for a forever home. We found him and his 3 brothers under a dumpster in mid October, but they are enjoying their new comfy lives as housecats. We estimate that he is about 8 weeks old. Socks loves playing and cuddling, and is very gentle. He would do well in a house with other cats as he can get lonely and start to cry when left alone. He would be very happy if you adopted one of his brothers along side him, but it is not required. Fun Fact: Socks looks almost identical to his brother Shoes! The main difference between them is the amount of white on their feet, Socks only has white on his toes.

Shoes is an adventurous boy who loves to explore and play. He was found under a dumpster in mid October with his 3 brothers, but he has immediately taken to the life of a housecat. We estimate that he is about 8 weeks old. He is a little more standoffish than his brothers, but will flop on your lap for cuddles once he gets to know and trust you. Shoes is the most independent of his brothers, and will do fine as an only cat, but he wouldn't be opposed to the company of other cats, especially one of his brothers! Fun Fact: he looks almost identical to his brother, Socks. We tell them apart by their feet, Shoes has more white on his legs.

Story
Pendleton, or Pen for short, is an EXTREMELY affectionate little kitten. He was found under a dumpster with his 3 brothers in mid October. They are all loving their new housecat lifestyle. We estimate that he is about 8 weeks old now. Pen loves people, he will walk right up to you and ask for attention, rubbing against you and even climbing into your lap. He lives for cuddles and pets. He also loves to run and play. Despite how friendly he is, he does get lonely when left all by himself, as he starts to cry and meow, so he would do best in a home with other cats (or lots of people!) He would love it if you could take one of his brothers with him so he has a full time cuddle buddy, but it is not required. Fun Fact: Pendleton is white with large black spots, so he kind of resembles a cow.
