Domestic Shorthair kittens & cats in Pawtucket, Rhode Island

Ideal Home: A patient, quiet home with a friendly feline! Qualities: Calm, Reserved, Shy, Mellow, Gentle Doogie Howser, MD is ready to find his forever home! This distinguished, four-pawed "purr-fessional" specializes in healing broken hearts with just a sway of his tail. Doogie thrives in the company of other cats, and a friendly feline companion to groom, play, and cuddle with is just what the doctor ordered. At just 2 years old, Doogie arrived at Ten Lives a bit shy, but his gentle and reserved nature has blossomed. He now enjoys flopping belly up next to his people for head scratches and, when he's in the mood, maybe even a belly rub. Mealtime brings out his affectionate side—Doogie will come over purring and nuzzling, happily accepting pets. On occasion, he might even let you pick him up without complaint when his "pick me up" meter is full. While it may take him a few days to warm up, with patience and love, he'll soon be exploring his surroundings and ensuring everything is in tip-top shape. ___________________________ Please complete an adoption application if you are interested in adopting from Ten Lives!

Our foster-based program is 100% volunteer-powered. We do not have a facility or shelter with regular visiting hours. Out of respect for the time, privacy, and safety of our foster families, we require an approved adoption application before scheduling a meet and greet with a foster cat.  Our goal is to place cats in their best-matched homes and facilitate lifelong adoptions. We do not review applications on a first-come, first-serve basis. We believe that veterinary care is an important part of cat guardianship. As such, a veterinary check is part of our adoption process. Our goal is to contact applicants within 96 business hours of receiving their application. During kitten season, wait times may be longer due to the influx of applications. We are all volunteers and kindly ask for your patience!  All Ten Lives cats are spayed or neutered, receive age-appropriate vaccinations, tested for FIV/FeLv and parasites, dewormed, treated for fleas, and microchipped.

Ideal Home: Quiet, patient and loving as she learns more about the pampered indoor life!Qualities: Gentle, Shy, Mellow. Graysie is a sophisticated 7.5 old gentle girl who has been appreciating the pampered indoor life since she arrived at Ten Lives. You see, Graysie's story is one that we commonly see; she spent her whole life outside and never knew the love and affectionate of being a beloved house cat. She has shown positive progress around her comfort human and has recently been allowing pets and brushing during her feedings. Her hobbies include bird watching and lounging in the sun beams to catch a good snooze. Graysie is gentle in nature and will need a patient adopter who can work with her slowly over time.  She gets along with other laid back and relaxed felines, and we think another easy going cat friend would help her flourish and also keep her company, but its not a deal breaker if she's a solo kitty either. If you think you could be Graysie's forever person, she hopes you will fill out an application for her today!___________________________Please complete an adoption application if you are interested in adopting from Ten Lives!

Meet Wayne, the dashing and determined cat whose journey has left us both heartbroken and inspired. This handsome boy was heartlessly kicked outside by his former owner, who callously asked us to "humanely discard" him. Wayne was terrified and withdrawn when he came into our care, but with time, patience, and love, he’s slowly opened up and begun to trust people again.Wayne’s story is one of resilience, but his newfound confidence has come with an undeniable craving for the outdoors. He’s a master escape artist: a door-dashing, screen-scratching, little Houdini who stops at nothing to feel the wind in his fur. We’ve tried everything to safely curb his outdoor desires—offering catio access, harness training, and even taking him out in a stroller. Yet, Wayne continues to yearn for the freedom he remembers.For Wayne’s well-being and happiness, we’re making an exception to our usual practice of finding strictly indoor homes. We are now looking for a loving and responsible owner who understands the challenges and risks of caring for an indoor/outdoor cat and will do everything possible to keep him safe. We hope to find someone who lives in a quieter area, keeps up with annual vet visits, vaccinations (rabies, distemper, and Feline Leukemia), is consistent with flea prevention, and who will commit to loving Wayne unconditionally.This is not a decision we make lightly, but we believe that Wayne deserves the best shot at a happy and fulfilled life. If you can offer Wayne the safe, structured, and caring home he needs, please reach out to learn more about this brave and spirited boy.If you think you could be Wayne's match, he hopes you will fill out an application today!___________________________Please complete an adoption application if you are interested in adopting from Ten Lives!

Ideal Home: With someone who is home a lot and can play and snuggle with Zeebedee!Qualities: Affectionate, Playful, Silly, SnugglyTrick or treat, 1.5 Zeebedee is looking for his forever person! This fun and energetic boy loves to play and has never said no to a good catnip mouse or wand toy! Zeebedee enjoys spending time with his people as much as he does zooming around, and would love someone to snuggle with when he is all tired out. He is a people loving cat and is looking for a home with someone who can spend lots of time with him. He would prefer a home without any other kitties where he can be your one and only. He can sometimes get carried away with playtime, so a home that can give him the positive redirection with his toys and with older kids would be a better fit than younger ones.Zeebedee can't wait to read all of his adoption applications, available below!*You can meet Zeebedee at PetSmart in Warwick today!
