Domestic Shorthair kittens & cats in Ellisville, Missouri

Burt came to Country Acres Rescue in January, 2023. He was a shelter transfer from Snuggle, a group who helps neonate kittens get on their feet before coming to a shelter like CAR. Burt had some tummy issues since he came into our care. We have done every test, probe, scope and screening there is on Burt to find out why he had tummy issues at such a young age - Burt is perfectly healthy, but he does have a simply food allergy. When Burt is on Science Diet Biome dry food, he does GREAT. Burt is such an affectionate, happy boy. All he wants is a loving family and a home of his own. Please contact CAR at 636-227-1919 to inquire more on Burt and how to give him the forever home he deserves.

Phoenix and his siblings, Austin, Dallas, and Philly were found outside as a strays this past Summer, 2023. Phoenix and his family were fed and watched over by a sweet family who cared very deeply that they end up in a reputable, loving rescue to find forever homes. Phoenix is the most outgoing of his litter, he is such a LOVER-BUGGER. He has such charming ways, and uses his paws a lot; he is so much fun to interact with. Phoenix has really dark and defined tiger stripes, eye catching. He loves playing with EVERYTHING and is super sweet with his siblings. Please call Country Acres Rescue to inquire more on Phoenix and how to make him a part of your loving family!!

Austin and his siblings, Philly, Dallas, and Phoenix were found outside as a strays this past Summer, 2023. Austin and his family were fed and watched over by a sweet family who cared very deeply that they end up in a reputable, loving rescue to find forever homes. Austin can be shy, but he is more outgoing by the day. Having our loving volunteers work with him consistently has really enabled Austin to branch out and come out of his shell. He is such a handsome guy with a soft, buff coat. He enjoys playing with toys and interested in bird/squirrel videos we play for the rescue cats throughout the day. Please call Country Acres Rescue to inquire more on Austin and how to make him a part of your loving family!!

One of our very own volunteers found and humanely trapped Shamrock in her front yard. She thought she was pregnant, but when she brought her in to Country Acres Rescue, we discovered Shamrock most likely had already given birth. This volunteer was horrified by this thought as one would be, so she spent the rest of her evening (before she was to leave town the next morning) setting up outside cameras and kitten traps to try and find Shamrock`s babies. To our amazement, this volunteer was able to trap two five-week old kittens who were tucked away under her concrete steps. We were elated! What an amazing story. Shamrock is still a bit on the shyer side as she is still a new resident and decompressing. She loves to eat and watch the birds out the window. We know she will come around once she learns CAR is a safe place. Shamrock deserves the most loving home and to never be outside fending for herself again. Please call CAR at 636-227-1919 to find out more about the adoption process and how to make Shamrock apart of your family.

Jade, was found as a stray in Hillsboro, MO in early January, 2024 - she was pregnant. The woman who surrendered Jade to CAR said she was screaming crying, trying to frantically get into her house to find shelter, poor thing. Luckily, CAR had space and was able to take in Jade so she had a nice warm space to have her babies. Jade had five kittens; Polly, Tiffany, Charlotte, Stuart and Timothy were born here at Country Acres Rescue on February 15, 2024. Jade was a WONDERFUL and caring Mama, she did such a good job taking care of her sweet kittens. Jade is affectionate, playful and oh so beautiful! Please call CAR at 636-227-1919 to inquire more on how to adopt Jade and give her a loving, forever home!

One of our long-time volunteers at Country Acres Rescue found Cinder and her four kittens outside in early August. The neighbors reported that Cinder birthed her litter in a window well. Cinder`s babies were adopted like hot cakes, all of them gorgeous and sweet like their Mama. However, it`s Cinder`s turn to find her forever home. She has a beautiful thick slate gray coat, and encapsulating eyes to match! Please call CAR at 636-227-1919 to find out more about how to give Cinder the forever home that she deserves OR check out our website at www.countryacresrescue.org to find our Adoption Questionnaire.

Well, howdy there, humans! I'm Bennie, the undisputed king of charm and charisma in the cat world. That's right, I've been rocking the feline scene for a solid ten years, and let me tell you, I've been searching for my purrfect match for a whopping six of those! When it comes to attention, I'm like a magnet for nose boops, kisses, and lap time. I lap up affection like it's the last bowl of cream on earth! (Side note: cats are lactose intolerant.) And let's talk playtime - nothing gets my whiskers twitching like a good ol' wand toy, especially 'Da Bird.' I'll pounce, swat, and strut my stuff like a furry ninja in training! Now, let's address the elephant in the room - or should I say, the drama queen? Yep, that was me once upon a time. But fear not, dear humans, for I've found the cure to my melodramatic tendencies - a happy pill a day keeps the diva at bay! Trust me, it's made a world of difference. When it comes to my fellow felines, I do have my standards. I prefer my playmates to be of the submissive female variety. As for our canine counterparts, as long as they're respectful and understand that I'm the true alpha, we'll get along just fine. Now, let's talk about mini-humans. While I appreciate their enthusiasm, I must admit, I prefer a more mature audience. Teens, in particular, are my jam. They can read the moment and appreciate the nuances of my unique personality. After all, age ain't nothing but a number, right? So, if you're ready to add a touch of charm, a sprinkle of sass, and a whole lot of love to your life, look no further than Bennie, your feline match made in heaven. Adopt me, and let the good times - and the nose boops - roll! If you're ready to be my forever human, please reach out to shannon@catnetwork.org.

Domino, 5 yrs old as of 2/28/23, is what is known as a "very good boi". He was rescued from a local animal control facility along with his brothers, Pirate and DB (Pirate was adopted). He is a calm and friendly boy who flops over and wallows around soaking up belly rubs and pets, sometimes giving tiny little love nibbles. He does very well with other cats and is a great comfort to his brother DB (he and DB must be adopted together).  A home without young children might be better since he can startle easily and then hides. Domino and DB have both had 2 dentals in the past couple years, so their teeth will need to be monitored by a vet. Other than that, they are both very healthy boys. DB and his brother will need ample time to get adjusted to their new home, but after that they really start to show their personalities! Domino will roll back and forth on his back for belly rubs and it is the cutest thing. He likes to pull the covers down at the top of the bed, think of it as your own personal turn down service haha. He also likes to sleep under the covers of the bed during the day. Both of the brothers love to be up high and can jump higher than any cat I know. They will sleep throughout the day and then in the evening will be exploring. And also look forward to epic wrestling matches! They are not lap cats and are very independent, if you want low maintenance kitties, these are your boys. Domino will hiss if he is scared, but we have never seen any nipping or swatting at humans or cats.   Our adoption application can be found here: http://catnetwork.org/adoption-application-and-fees/ Website: catnetwork.org Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheCatNetworkSTL/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/catnetworkstl Instagram: @stlcatnetwork To learn more, please contact us at info@catnetwork.org or text/call the PURR line at 636-386-7877 (text preferred).November 6, 2024, 12:12 am

DB (short for Dot Boy; as you can see, he has a dot on his chin) is 5 yrs old as of 2/28/23. He was rescued from a local animal control facility along with his brothers, Pirate and Domino (Pirate has been adopted). DB is a little shy at first, but really enjoys attention (especially scritches on the back of his neck), and loves to bump heads with people!  He LOVES other cats and must be adopted with his brother Domino (and would be happy to have another cuddly cat in the home to snuggle with).  DB and his brother have both had 2 dentals in the past couple years, so their teeth will need to be monitored by a vet. Other than that, they are both very healthy boys. DB and his brother will need ample time to get adjusted to their new home, but after that they really start to show their personalities!

Luna (5 yrs old as of 5/1/22) loves to be up high and would like to have a cat tree or perch where she can stare down and judge you haha. She looks like she is taking note of everything you have ever done wrong, but I think that she just loves having a good view of everything. Her grumpy face is everything.  She will talk to you sometimes and will let you know what is on her mind. She LOVES treats and LOVES to be brushed with a brush. When you stop brushing her she will meow to let you know you can't be done yet! She is a very low maintenance cat, content to lie in the sun or sit in the same room as you. At night she sleeps near my head or in the same room, sometimes she will nudge your arm for pets, then settles down again. She does get the zoomies and it is hilarious to watch. Also, watch if you leave your water glass out, she will stick her paw in and then give it a lick! Luna will need to be the only pet in the household. When Luna does not want you to do something or does not want to do something herself, you will know. She hates the carrier, hates being brushed on her lower sides and legs, and hates getting her nails trimmed. She will let you know her frustration with that swishy tail and a swat.  She is healthy, up-to-date on vaccinations, spayed, microchipped, dewormed, and treated to prevent fleas.    Our adoption application can be found here: http://catnetwork.org/adoption-application-and-fees/ Website: catnetwork.org Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheCatNetworkSTL/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/catnetworkstl Instagram: @stlcatnetwork To learn more, please contact us at info@catnetwork.org or text/call the PURR line at 636-386-7877 (text preferred).November 6, 2024, 12:12 am

Clyde is 13 yrs old as of 2/1/23, but does not act like an old man! He is very playful and talkative. He loves to be petted, and he loves to be showered with attention. He wants to always be around you and will talk if he cannot see you. He does seem to like women more than men, but has never nipped or scratched at anyone.  He would love to be in a quiet home where he would be the center of attention. Clyde would do best in a home with no cats, dogs, or people under the age of 18, and with someone who has owned cats in the past.  Clyde requires thyroid medication twice a day, and his foster mom gives it to him with canned cat food.      Our adoption application can be found here: http://catnetwork.org/adoption-application-and-fees/ Website: catnetwork.org Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheCatNetworkSTL/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/catnetworkstl Instagram: @stlcatnetwork To learn more, please contact us at info@catnetwork.org or text/call the PURR line at 636-386-7877 (text preferred).November 6, 2024, 12:12 am
