Story
This is Henry, a sweet little guy who has been looking for his forever home since this summer! We are giving his profile a little refresh in hopes his forever family will have an easier time finding him! Henry came to Never Less Cat Rescue after he was found behind the tire of a vehicle - after it had been going down the highway. Thankfully, Henry didn't have a single scratch on him but his nerves were fried for a little bit! We can't blame him, that must have been very scary to go through! Thanks to his amazing foster family, Henry has had a safe home to decompress in and come out of his shell. He is no longer phased by the events that brought him into our care. Instead, he spends his days playing with his foster siblings and his toys. His foster mom states he would do best in a home with another playful animal around to keep him happy an entertained while his people are away during the day. His foster mom also states every evening he has a routine of seeking affection and being the sweetest boy! The perfect home for Henry would be one that has playful pets already or is willing to adopt a friend with Henry. The perfect home would have toys for him to play with and will spoil him with treats and wet food. Henry would like to be in a home that allows him to have at least one human to bond to so he has someone to play and cuddle with each day. Henry is neutered, vaccinated, and tested Negative for FIV, FeLV, and Heartworms. He has been microchipped as well. Henry's adopters will go home with all medical records and microchip registration information. His adoption fee is $200 and any additional kitty adopted with Henry is an additional $50.

Story
Peter is an adorable kitten who deserves a loving forever home. I have fostered Peter since he was just 5 days old (Born May 29, 2024), and he has captured my heart completely. However, I was diagnosed with cancer in July. Despite my hopes of keeping him, I find myself overwhelmed with my illness, and I am unable to give Peter the love and attention he truly deserves. Peter is energetic, curious, mischievous and incredibly affectionate. He loves to cuddle, eagerly plays with mice, crumbled paper and jingle balls. He will melt everyone's heart. He would make a wonderful companion for an older person seeking love and companionship; one whom rejoices in kitten energy. Please consider giving Peter the loving indoor-only home he deserves. He is a delightful kitten ready to bring joy and happiness into your life.

Story
Pearl is a wonderful cat. She is very cuddly, knows her name and is an all around typical girl. She gets along well with other cats and dogs however she does not do well with small children. She just turned 2 years old this year and she has her shots as well. Unfortunately, we do have to rehome her for personal reasons, but she'd make an excellent addition to any home.

Story
Tang is a 2-year-old domestic shorthair with a whole lot of love to share. Incredibly affectionate, he seizes every opportunity for head scratches, constantly purring and melting into your arms for cuddles. His sweet and snuggly nature has quickly made him a staff favorite. Please note that Tang is FeLV+ so he cannot go to a home with other cats (unless they are also FeLV+) and he cannot be an outdoor cat. FeLV+ cats appear and act just as healthy as other cats; however, they do have an increased risk of getting sick.

Story
Millie is a healthy 2.5-year-old cat who was surrendered to us after being rescued as a stray and nursed back to health. She’s affectionate, loves head scratches, and will jump into your hand for attention. Millie is very communicative, often meowing loudly during pets instead of purring (most of her pictures are mid-meow). She does prefer human company over other animals. We're still learning about her, so stay tuned!

Story
Velveteen is 1 and 1/2 years old and came to the shelter with several kittens. She was a wonderful mom to those kittens, so it's time for her to get pampered! She is quiet and reserved, taking some time to warm up to people. She loves Churros, so that's always a good start! She is quiet and calm and would likely prefer a home that matches her energy. She is very clean and sweet! She is spayed, up to date on her shots, and litter trained.

Story
This sweet boy has been wandering my apartment complex for >5 months. I thought he was someone’s outdoor cat but now that temps dropped and he’s still outside at all hours and he’s always hungry I think he was abandoned. He’s sleeping inside at night & is so snuggly. He likes to be held, loves to lay with you, loves to be pet. He is young based on his clean teeth and his energy, the boy will want to play! He got his name from the little boy on Wild Thornberries He would make a wonderful addition to any home. He isn’t with any kids, cats, or dogs right now but based on how he acts I would guess he’d do just fine after the proper introduction! He has used the kitty box inside when needed but right now I think he’s so used to being outside he prefers to go out to go potty. I don’t think it would be an issue to change that. I brought him to a vet to check for a chip, no luck. I reported him lost and nobody has claimed him and also posted him all over Facebook, Nextdoor, PawBoost, etc.
