Story
Archie is one of five kittens that were born in my apartment 2 and a half years ago. He's very sweet, playful, and cuddly. He uses scratching posts and the litter boxes. In August I moved in with a friend, and Archie has not been getting along with the other cats. We think there's just too many. We've tried many things, from pheromones, giving him more attention, playing more, but the aggression hasn't gotten any better. We think it may be a stress issue. Which is why we are looking for a good home with maybe one or two other cats, and owners that are looking for a pet that's cuddly and playful.

Story
Carp and Marlin (6 months) came to the rescue after being dumped outside as one month old kittens. They were very sick to the point they couldn’t open their eyes. A very nice person snagged their whole litter up and brought them home and got them on medication. Since these girls were babies, they’ve been absolute love bugs. They love to run right up to you and rub all over you. The absolute most special thing about both of these girls is they wag their tails like dogs when they’re happy or playing. It’s ridiculously precious. While they wag their tails they squint their eyes and start to roll on their sides to invite you in for some pets. Both Marlin and Carp will follow you all around the house. They also love to climb cat trees to the tippy top and take naps together. Marlin and carp are huge bedbugs. They will fall asleep with you every night and greet you when you wake up every morning. Both girls love to snuggle on the couch while you settle down and watch tv! Carp and Marlin have been socialized with cats, rabbits, and dogs. We think they’d do well in an assortment of homes but super young kids might be a lot for them. Both Carp and Marlin have received full vet work ups and are ready to go to their new forever home! If you’re interested in adopting Carp and Marlin submit an application at www.cassidyscritters.com and we’ll be in touch shortly!

Story
Quill is looking for his new best friend! Quill came to the rescue at a very young age and is now 9.5 months old. His whole litter was adopted out, but he stuck behind. He wasn’t advertised for a while, while in foster but is now ready for his new forever home! Quill loves people. He will do just about anything for your attention. He loves to climb on your lap and rub all over your face, he rolls on his back waiting for belly rubs, there’s really no escaping him. Quill needs a decently calm home. He very much loves other cats and would prefer to live with another cat who wants to be his friend. He can be a little timid around bigger dogs, but with proper introduction, there should be no issue. Quill would also do okay with older children who understand and respect his space and energy. He doesn’t enjoy being chased around, grabbed, unexpectedly picked up, a lot of things younger children haven’t learned yet. Two things Quill does not hesitate to obsess over are food, and play time! Wet food at least a few times a week is a MUST for Quill. He lives and breathes for it. He also goes absolutely bonkers over little jingly and stringy toys, but don’t even get him started on a spring… Quill has had a full vet work up and is ready to meet his new best friends. If you’re interested, submit an application at www.cassidyscritters.com and someone will be in touch shortly!

Story
Introducing Tuna and Roe, two stunning black kittens with hearts as big as their playful personalities! Rescued from a tree with their siblings, this dynamic duo has blossomed into the best of friends, bringing joy and laughter wherever they go. Tuna (male) stands out with his adorable white spot on his chest and a charming independent streak. While he loves to join in on the fun, he also enjoys lounging back and observing the antics of his sister. Roe (female), affectionately nicknamed Mew-Mew for her sweet little mews, has a playful spirit that will steal your heart. She has a quirky game where she hides her mouse toys in shoes and dives in to find them—no shoes have been harmed in the process, we promise! Together, they love to romp around, chasing each other through the house, climbing cat trees, and playfully pouncing from behind furniture. They’re still very much kittens, so a cozy cat tree or some fun cat furniture would be ideal for their energetic playtime! While Roe can be a bit shy with new people, she also has a spunky side during playtime. Tuna, on the other hand, is bolder with strangers and slightly more laid-back in general, making them a perfect balance. Both kittens adore cuddling with each other and their foster parents, and they get along wonderfully with the resident cat and dog! Are you ready to welcome this lovable pair into your home? If you’re looking for double the fun and companionship, Tuna and Roe are waiting for you!

Story
Please contact Jamie (jamie@pawsandprayers.org) for more information about this pet. Meet Matcha! Matcha is a special girl who needs a home she can reside in, and not necessarily receive attention. Matcha loves the companionship of other cats, but could give or take humans. She is not aggressive, just shy and not fond of human touch. She has a sensitive tummy and requires a gentle formula food (not prescription). She is about 1 year old. Her adoption fee is $125.   Paws and Prayers Cats are spay/neuter, fully vaccinated, FIV/FeLV tested (neg), dewormed, current on flea/tick prevention, and microchipped at the time of adoption. They are litterbox trained unless otherwise noted. Please be aware we do not walk around standing & holding our shelter cats - this is unnatural to them and we like to keep them as comfortable as possible.  Please read the entire bio before emailing the foster with questions.    Meet and greets are not arranged unless an adoption application is filled out and approved and are by appointment only. November 5, 2024, 10:55 am

Please contact Jamie (jamie@pawsandprayers.org) for more information about this pet. Meet Stache! Stache is a dapper 3 year old domestic short hair. He is playful, energetic, and fun! When he first came to Paws and Prayers he was not a happy camper but once settled in, he’s blossomed into a sweet boy! He absolutely loves the company of other cats, and tends to take kittens under his wing and play with them all the time!  He does get overstimulated with play and petting with humans, so a home with no kids would be best. Stache’s adoption fee is $125.November 5, 2024, 10:55 am

Please contact Jamie (jamie@pawsandprayers.org) for more information about this pet. Alex can come off as a little bit of a sour patch kid at first, but will show you that she is really sweet as pie. She likes attention on her terms but let’s you know when she’s had enough. She gets along with other cats, but would be content in a home on her own. She is very petite and does the cutest squeaks. She is about 5-6 years old. She has a deformed eye but it has been checked by a vet and doesn’t bother her or cause issues, it just waters from time to time. Alex also seems a little hard of hearing but that does not effect her either. She is a great girl who’s ready to find a home! Her adoption fee is $125.

Please contact Dee (Dee@pawsandprayers.org) for more information about this pet.  *Please read bio in its entirety prior to contacting the foster. The first step in our process  for any animal you are interested in, is to fill out an application. For more information not listed in the bio, please email Dee at Dee@PawsandPrayers.org* Santana is trying hard to learn to trust humans, and she is very watchful as she learns as much as she can about you before she makes her move. She has been with us about a year and a half now, and has made so much progress! We have found that at feeding time seems to be the best time to pet her and show her love. She enjoys affection, but she does not yet actively seek it out on her own unless she feels comfortable with you. She is looking for a special person that will offer her patience as she gets comfortable in her new environment. She loves the company of other cats, and would do best with a kitty companion in her new home.   She is about two 1/2 years old, litter box trained, up to date on vaccines, microchipped, spayed, dewormed, and combo tested. Her adoption fee is $125. This pet qualifies for the Pets for Patriots program. Copy and paste this link for more information. https://www.petsforpatriots.org/veterans/ November 5, 2024, 10:55 am

He enjoys other cats, but could also live in a home by himself. Zevyn has a very sensitive tummy, and must be on a grain free diet to avoid IBS flare ups. He also does best when kept on a probiotic.
