Story

Meet Periwinkle, a female, calico domestic short-hair born around April 17, 2024. Say hello to the snuggliest kitten you’ll ever meet! Periwinkle’s favorite thing in life is to cuddle. She doesn’t care if she’s in your lap, laying around your shoulders while you do chores, or being held like a small child with her paws wrapped around your neck in a big hug – she just wants to cuddle! In between all of those loud purrs and snuggles, Periwinkle is still a young, playful kitten who loves to play. Periwinkle loves jingle balls and anything that dangles (cat wands, strings, etc.). She’s a super talkative little girl that will chirp and follow you room to room asking to be picked up or play. Periwinkle currently shares a foster home with a dog and other cats. She would prefer a home with a fur friend or work-from-home human to keep her company all day. If you are interested in meeting Periwinkle, contact us today at adopt@carolinapaws.com.

Story

Meet Piper, an adorable domestic short haired kitten born around July 18th 2024. Piper is a sweet, loving, and inquisitive little girl who is sure to steal your heart. Piper has a playful side but also enjoys her quiet moments, making her the perfect companion for a variety of homes. Some of Piper's favorite things include head and body scratches, snuggling with her humans, and having a cozy spot by the window to watch the world go by. She can't get enough of her catnip toys and enjoys climbing to a high perch where she can relax and observe. Piper thrives on human attention and will happily settle in for some cuddle time whenever you're around. While Piper is generally easygoing, she prefers a calm environment and isn't a fan of loud noises or being left out of the fun. This little lady is litter box trained and would love a home where she can get plenty of attention, as she's still a young kitten. Although she hasn't been around children or other animals for long, she did very well with her foster's small dogs and should be fine with school-aged children who understand how to treat a kitten gently. Piper is current on her vaccines, and her adoption fee will include her future spay and microchip. If you're interested in giving Piper her forever home, please contact us at adopt@carolinapaws.com.

Story

Meet Rory! Born around July 15, 2024, Rory is a sweet 8-week-old domestic shorthair weighing just 2 lbs. Though small, she has a big heart and a curious nature. Rory is outgoing, loves attention, and enjoys exploring her surroundings with her siblings by her side. She adores head scratches, belly rubs, playing with toys, and mealtime. Rory is happiest when she's part of the action, always nearby to see what's happening. She's not fond of being alone, loud noises, or closed doors-she enjoys being close to her people! One adorable thing about Rory is how she loves to pose for the camera, making sure she always looks her cutest. She's litter box trained and does well in her foster home, where there are both dogs and cats. In fact, she even sleeps next to her foster family's 85 lb dog! Because she's still a young kitten, Rory would do best in a home with children aged 5 and up, and she'd love a family where someone is home more often. She'd thrive with a gentle older dog or another playful cat to keep her company. Whether you're new to pets or have had them before, Rory is sure to fit right into your family.
