Domestic Shorthair kittens & cats in Rhode Island

Meet Blu! Blu is the sweetest boy in the universe! He loves to get cozy in his bed and will instantly come out for affection! With questions about Blu, or any of our other adoptable cats, please contact Olivia at olivia.warburton@rispca.org

Meet Leo! This gorgeous lady is so friendly! She can be very talkative and she loves pets. She can be kind of cat selective, but she may do well with a feline friend with a slow introduction. With questions about Leo, or any of our other adoptable cats, please contact Olivia at olivia.warburton@rispca.org

Meet Beaux, the ultimate cuddle companion! This 4-year-old gentleman is as sweet and chill as they come. His favorite things in life? Snuggling up with his person and soaking up all the head scratches he can get. One of his fosters even joked that having Beaux around instantly lowered their stress levels by 50%—he’s just that soothing!Due to his time outdoors, Beaux is FIV+, but that doesn’t slow him down one bit! He’s currently living peacefully with FIV-negative cats, as the virus is only spread through deep bite wounds. He’s non-reactive to other cats and would do well in a multi-cat home, or as your one and only! While he hasn’t been tested with dogs or kids, his easygoing nature suggests he’d adjust well with proper introductions.If you're looking for a loving, laid-back companion (and maybe a little stress relief), Beaux is your guy—apply today!Feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) is a cat-specific virus that cannot be passed onto dogs or humans. FIV is spread through deep bite wounds, typically seen on outdoor male cats who have not been neutered. It's rarely spread through grooming, sharing bowls, or litter boxes. FIV affects a cat's immune system, but most cats live long lives when they live indoors, receive routine veterinary care, have a stress-free home, and a good diet. To learn more about FIV, please visit the link below. https://www.alleycat.org/resources/feline-immunodeficiency-virus-fiv/______________________________Please complete an adoption application if you are interested in adopting from Ten Lives!

Stitches is a 10 month old Tortie charmer who loves to be near you.

Ok, maybe there's one thing she enjoys maybe just as much as her attention, and that's climbing her favorite cat tower and running around with her fun toys! Stitches is very curious and incredibly loving. She has not met other pets but she saw the resident mini doxie in her foster home and she didn't seem to mind his presence. We are confident that Stitches is the sweetest girl we ever met, and she has her paws crossed her forever person is reading all about her right now!

Many times, these cats require extraordinary medical care and extensive stays in their foster homes before they are ready for adoption. But we don’t think time or money should ever get in the way of a cat receiving the care they deserve! To help us care for these cats, we have increased fees for other cats who are in high demand–such cats aid us in catalyzing change within our community. When you adopt a CATalyst cat, you aren’t just providing a forever home for them; you’re helping many other cats at Ten Lives, like our Forgotten Felines!Thank you for allowing us to continue our life-saving work!___________________________Please complete an adoption application if you are interested in adopting from Ten Lives!
