She came to me with her 5 newborn kittens and immediately started purring as soon as I opened her kennel. She’s playful and frequently seeks attention from anyone willing to show her some love! When her kittens get attention, she wants to be right there in the the center of it all. She has the most gorgeous green eyes and is an all-around awesome kitty who deserves an equally awesome home. Pamera is from a local shelter. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application.

She'll grace you with a few loving laps across your legs before settling nearby in her favorite chair or cat bed. Once comfy, she’ll knead biscuits, purr contentedly, and snooze the day away. This adventurous girl loves lounging at the top of a cat tree or in an open window, where she can watch the world go by. While she enjoys chasing dangly toys during playtime, she’s also content relaxing in her own space. SuperMom has a refined palate—she adores canned cat food with gravy and isn’t too keen on dry food. Though she can be a little shy at first, SuperMom warms up quickly and will show her affectionate side in no time. She is reliably litterbox trained. If you are looking to adopt two cats, SuperMom currently lives with Josephine. They get along well and can be adopted together. If you're looking for a gentle and loving companion with a touch of independence, SuperMom might just be the perfect addition to your home! SuperMom is from a local impound.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Josephine is a gentle and shy soul who’s looking for a calm and loving home to call her own. She’s the kind of cat who takes her time getting comfortable in new surroundings, often preferring to quietly observe from a cozy perch or her favorite spot by the window. But once she feels safe, Josephine’s playful side begins to shine! She enjoys chasing dangly toys, rolling around on rugs, and even indulging in spontaneous zoomies. While Josephine isn’t much of a lap cat, she’s tolerant of being picked up for brief moments and doesn’t mind gentle pets, especially while she’s enjoying her meals. Her favorite treats include lickable cat snacks and gravy-style canned food, though she’s recently developed a taste for Meow Mix dry food as well. Josephine is fully litterbox trained. She thrives in a quiet environment with patient humans who will let her come out of her shell at her own pace. If you're looking for two kitties, Josephine currently lives with SuperMom and they can be adopted together as they get along well. If you’re looking for a low-maintenance companion with a touch of playful charm, Josephine would love to meet you! Josephine is from a local impound.

I love having a cozy spot to call my own, tasty food to enjoy, and a warm bed to snuggle in. My favorite time of day is when my foster mom sits on the floor to pet me—I’ll even rub against her leg to ask for more attention! I’m a fan of scratching posts and always use my litterbox like the well-mannered lady I am. While I’m still learning to trust new people and can be a little shy at first, I’m sure to blossom with patience and a calm environment. I’m not a big fan of being picked up, but maybe that will change over time as I continue to build my confidence. I’d love to have another cat friend in my forever home—they help me feel more secure and show me the ropes. I haven’t met kids yet, so I’d probably do best in a quieter home where I can adjust at my own pace. If you think we’d be a good match, I’d love to meet you! Fill out an application, and let’s see if I could be your perfect companion. Duchess is from local impound.

At just 10 months old, this sweet boy is still finding his way in the world. Initially shy around new people, he’s slowly learning to trust and has made wonderful progress with his foster mom. Harry has discovered that a gentle pet from a human can feel delightful, and he’s starting to show his affection by rubbing against legs and approaching for sniffs at mealtime. When he’s not exploring his newfound comfort, you can find him snuggled up under the blankets, enjoying the warmth and safety of his cozy spot. With a little patience and love, Harry is ready to blossom into a loyal companion. Could you be the one to give him his forever home?   Harry is a young, light grey tabby with a heart as gentle as his soft fur. Rescued from a precarious situation near road construction by a compassionate Good Samaritan, Harry is now in search of a loving home where he can feel safe and cherished. As the shyest member of his group, Harry takes his time to warm up to new experiences. He prefers to observe from a distance, but he's making brave strides by coming out to eat while his foster mom is still in the room. He’s taken tentative steps toward human interaction, approaching for a gentle sniff before retreating to his safe spot. Harry is a quiet, curious kitty who loves to play and explore his surroundings. His reserved nature is paired with a deep curiosity and a sense of wonder that makes every day an opportunity for discovery. With patience and a nurturing touch, Harry will flourish into a loving companion who appreciates the quieter moments and gentle companionship. If you have a cozy corner and a tender heart to offer, Harry is ready to become a cherished member of your family. Harry was a stray.

We highly recommend you consider bringing home two instead of one! Adopting kittens in pairs has been proven to be beneficial for cats’ emotional and behavioral well-being and greatly improves the likelihood of long-term adopter happiness as a result. Adopting more than one kitten also reduces the risk of “Single Kitten Syndrome” (also known as Tarzan Syndrome), a symptom of under-socialization during a kitten’s most formative weeks. Kittens who are under-socialized may develop aggressive tendencies toward both other animals and humans as they grow, creating lifelong behavioral issues for owners.

She has had a lot of changes in her short life! When she was in an blocked off area with her siblings she was wary but eager for pets. She is the first one in the bunch that purred for me! She will even show her belly for rubs. Desert would do best in a home where she could have her own space as well as time together with the family. She would do well with another cat as she tends to get lonely without her siblings. She is cautious at first but very curious and will engage in her time. She especially likes being hand fed wet food and that is a great time for getting some petting in. She is very sweet and gets along with other animals, including my adult cat. She is really smart - when I say her name to her she cocks her head. I really think she knows it ! Desert was found stray.

Don't let my cute face fool you, I am an independent lady. I don't need anyone but feline friends. Ok so maybe I kinda might like you a little when your dishing out that canned food, brushing me, but that is it! And maybe I might like you if you have a toy mouse for me or if you are holding that thing that controls the red dot. But only then! I may also like you a little if you just happen to have some catnip but then I draw the line. If you think you can handle that then maybe just maybe someday we could be great friends but for now I need someone who can be understanding and patient. Humans weren't always so great to me. It's not my fault. I still deserve a chance. I personally think any human would be lucky to have a kitty as cute as me but I may be a bit bias ;) Date of birth (estimated): 12/6/18 Good with Dogs: Unknown Good with Cats: Yes House Trained: Yes Adoption Fee: $90 Submit an application at https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/FEHR/Cat I live at the Sanctuary.

Hi! My name is Olivia. I am a sweet, snuggly, little girl who loves to love. I didn't get treated the best early in life. Because of this I had to have all my teeth removed. It's no so bad since I get to eat all canned food now. Yum! I get along with other kitty friends, but I absolutely love people. I would love to have a home where people have the time to give me affection and don't mind if I sit on their lap. I have times where I am independent but I do really love affection. If you think I might be the right fit for you fill out an adoption application and maybe we can meet! Adoption Fee $140 Apply Online: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/FEHR/Cat *Olivia does have reactions to vaccines so her new family will need to be prepared to make sure their vet is aware, and can give preventative medications before any new vaccines*

Hi! My name is Laverne. I am soft as a bunny but also as shy as one. I take quite awhile to warm up to new people but once I do, everyone says I am so funny. I will talk ever so softly to get your attention at which point I expect should rubs. yes shoulder rubs. I might stay awhile but then I will scamper away. My return will likely be food dependent. I really do need to have another cat friend as I tend to enjoy a confident feline companion. I didn't have the best start in life but I am ready for someone to pick me and show me what a good life in a real home could be like.

Hi! My name is Stacy! I arrived at the sanctuary with my eye poked out and huge claw marks on my back. Everyone has been so nice to me and has taken really good care of me. During my time here I also had to have a lot of my teeth removed which everyone seems to not mind since I sometimes enjoy munching on your fingers. I get along with other kitty friends great and dogs don't really scare me. I love being picked up and carried around once in awhile. Being loved is the best!

Hi! My name is Tigerlily. Everyone keeps telling me I am the "cutest little thing" whatever that means. If it get me pet it works for me! I was abandoned outside of a cafe to have my babies. It was really scary but some nice people came along and took care of us. Now I am looking for a loving home to call my own! I would do best in a mellow household. I love attention but I still can be a bit shy sometimes. If you have food I will love you for life! I also get along with other kitties friends great and would love to have a cat companion.

Hi! My name is Mr. Munson. I am a very sweet older gentleman who loves nothing more than a good snuggle. I get along with other cat friends great as long as they are nice to me. I do have feline asthma and I need my inhalers each day. My foster humans say I am a good sport about it. I came to rescue when my dad passed away. He was really good to me and I miss him. I hope that someday I can find another human who will love me as much as he did. I have a lot of love to give in return. Adoption Fee $90 Apply Online https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/FEHR/Cat
