“Some people make the world special just by being in it.” – Selffa.com. I’ll bet you’re a special person, aren’t you? I think I’m special too. I’m a cute, lovable seven-year-old black and white kitty boy called Carson. My people named me Bruce, but since being returned to the shelter, I’ve been called by my original name, Carson. I was an affectionate, energetic kitten. In my home, I liked my alone time, but I enjoyed receiving affection and petting. I really bonded with the disabled adult son in the home. I may have understood him, I guess. See, I’m different from many kitties. I have pica. Some kitties get it (people too). It means that we eat things we shouldn’t. In my case, I chew on cloth – blankets, soft toys, and things like that. It can be very dangerous, as I found out the hard way. I get lots of TLC from staff and volunteers here at the shelter! I am always up for playing with them, or on my own. I love playing with water under the faucet! I can play with plastic balls and all sorts of toys that I can’t chew or swallow, and I can be comfortable in a space without blankets. I trust that you are loving, smart, creative, and capable of giving me the kind of care that a special boy like me needs. Give me a window where I can watch the birds and squirrels and soak up the sun. Let me soak up your love! I will be a happy Carson boy! Let’s share our special lives together!Adoption fee $50 + microchip fee $30 + tax

“People where you live,` the little prince said, `grow five thousand roses in one garden... yet they don`t find what they`re looking for...And yet what they`re looking for could be found in a single rose...` And the little prince added, `But eyes are blind. You have to look with the heart.” - Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, `The Little Prince`. My name is Razzmatazz. If you’ve seen my name before, it’s because I’ve been here a while. I came from a hoarding situation in April 2022. I’m one of the “Crayola Cats.” The color “Razzmatazz” is a crimson-rose. That’s too jazzy for a kitty like me, but a rose is a beautiful flower. I’m a 6-year-old black female, who, like the many other cats who lived in that home, is very shy around people, but I was adopted six months later. My person tried to make me feel at home, and I was making a bit of progress. I was playing some and accepting petting while I ate. But because I’m not outwardly affectionate or a snuggly lap cat, I was returned this January. I do enjoy the company of other cats. Staff have seen me playing with a kitten named Clover, and often adult cats don’t have that kind of patience! I love sitting in the window with other cats, and on occasion, I will let a human get close to me when I’m relaxing. I was called Cookie in my home, but no matter what you call me, I am a sweet girl who deserves to be in a loving home. Are you a patient person who can give me all the space and time I need to feel comfortable? I would do best with another cat, maybe my kitten friend Clover. Look with your heart. See ME. Razzmatazz. A single, unique rose. As it says in “The Little Prince,” “It`s the time you spent on your rose that makes your rose so important...People have forgotten this truth, but you mustn`t forget it. You become responsible forever for what you`ve tamed. You`re responsible for your rose.” Spend quiet time in the presence of Razzmatazz. Sense my gentle nature with your cat-whisperer’s heart.Adoption fee $100 + microchip fee $30 + tax

You probably know of some famous guys named Kenneth - Kenny or Ken. Kenny Rogers, Kenny Loggins, Ken Burns. Kenneth Edmonds. Who? “Babyface.” R & B artist, 13-time Grammy winner…There you have it. I’m a cat, and I’m just as handsome as they are. But I’m not a performer. Folks, I’ve been here since 2023. I was found as a stray kitten in SE Rochester, and I was quite a scaredy cat. I’m still shy, but I’ve come a long way since then. I’m all grown up, and I enjoy hanging out in the windows with some of my cat friends. If you take me home, maybe with a cat buddy I can hang out with, I just might get over my “stage fright” and find my inner “purrformer.” I do like to play a bit, and Babyface has got nothing on me in the looks department. Check out my sleek black coat and striking green eyes. I don’t have a stage name. I’m Kenneth, and I want to be yours.Adoption fee $100 + microchip fee $30 + tax
