Story
Quarter Pounder may be deaf, but that doesn't slow him down one bit! This fearless little adventurer is always ready to play and explore every corner of his world. He loves engaging in playful antics with his littermates and, if they're up for it, even older cats! Friendly and curious, Quarter Pounder enjoys being petted but has a serious preference for playtime. You’ll often find him carrying around toy mice or batting balls across the room—he’s always on the move and looking for his next game. If you’re searching for a fun-loving, spirited kitten who doesn’t let anything hold him back, Quarter Pounder is ready to bring his boundless energy and big heart into your home! Prior to adoption, all kittens are spayed/neutered, tested for FIV/FELV, vaccinated and microchipped. Kittens under 5 months old must be adopted with a buddy or into a house where there's a kitten-friendly pet. This kitten is currently in a foster home. To meet this kitten, please fill out an adoption application so that we'll have your contact information, and we'll get back to you as soon as possible. www.thedancingcat.org/adoptDecember 17, 2024, 12:16 am

This is Pickles, we rescued her mom off of the street about few months ago and we had no clue she was pregnant. She is one of 7 all black kittens and is about 2 months old. We’re looking for homes for 6. Like many kittens she is very playful, her favorite thing to do is run around with a little ribbon while her siblings chase it. She likes to hide under bed covers and cuddle/play with feet

Story
I adopted Ares and Athena when they were 6 mos old. They are now 3 years old and in good health. They are brother and sister and have been together since birth. I am hoping to find them a forever home where they will receive all the love and attention that they deserve. They are both playful. Athena loves to be pet and often sounds like a motor with how much she purrs. Ares also loves to be pet and he makes sure to let you know he wants to be pet by being vocal about it. They love to snuggle each other and you will often find them keeping each other warm during the cold winter days. Athena loves to sit on laps and she will even lay on your chest if you let her when lying in bed. Ares will greet you when you come home by plopping on his side and looking at you expectantly in hopes you will pet him. They both love to look at the window and have even opened the blinds after I have closed them in order to see outside. Please consider Ares and Athena to be the new members of your family.

Tye, the black cat, is a reserved and clever soul who prefers to observe from a distance. Though shy, he is thoughtful and quick-witted, often surprising you with his intelligence in quiet moments. Mae, the grey cat, is the complete opposite—warm, cuddly, and full of affection. Her friendly nature makes her a social butterfly, always eager to make new friends and shower her loved ones with affection. Together, they balance each other perfectly.

Story
Honey and Butter are a sweet 1-year-old brother and sister who are looking for a loving home together. Honey is a beautiful brown tabby with a unique orange tint to her fur. She’s curious and outgoing, always wanting to be close to you. Butter is the laid-back big brother who loves to relax and be petted. These two are a perfect pair – playful, but calm, and always snuggling together. They’re healthy, social, and have outgrown the kitten stage, meaning they’re ready for a more settled lifestyle while still enjoying their fun moments. Honey and Butter are bonded and will need to stay together. If you're looking for two loving companions to share your home, they might just be the perfect match! Please submit an adoption application if you are interested: https://forms.gle/JNvQG3Dva96z8oMs9.

Story
Hi! My name is Buddy. I’m looking for a best friend who I can spend all of my time with. I am a lap cat with lots of energy and curiosity. I love to cuddle, snuggle and play. I really just want you to be with me and to be able to jump all around! My moms current 810sqft condo is too small for my big personality, so Im looking for a new home that ideally has kids, other cats or dogs, and playtime. My current mommy adopted me at 10 weeks old and now I am 3 years old! I love kids SO MUCH, I love other cats, I LOVE STRANGERS and I love to play! Im more like a dog than a cat. And I am so tidy with how I take care of my fur, too. I am as soft and supple as a bunny rabbit. I love being held, and I love having my armpits scratched. Im great with kids and other cats. Ive only ever known the indoors.
