Story

I am looking to find a home for a 2 year old neutered male cat that was abandoned by my neighbors who moved away. I did get him fixed and have kept him at my home, but he does not get along with other cats. He loves people (men and women), my grandkids, and even strangers that come to my home. He likes to sit on my desk while I work, will sit next to or on me when I'm on the sofa and will sleep with me in bed. He does not like my other cats. He just attacks, stalks and terrorizes them and would be better in a single-pet home. His perfect forever home would be as a single pet. Perfect for the person who can only have one pet. He has been indoor/outdoor never far from the front porch or back deck and never out very long. I always bring in at dark with treats and never leave outside at night. But am sure he would do fine as an indoor cat. He loves to play with catnip toys and and scrunchy balls etc. He is a very healthy, strong cat - he is also a good mouser!

Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Meet Yari, an affectionate, loving kitty living outside in a colony with other cats. She's so friendly and trusting of humans that she probably didn't grow up outside. The colony caretaker spayed and microchipped her because neither of those basic things had been done for Yari before. No one was looking for her, either. Yari deserves a home with someone who will show her what it's like to live the good life indoors, with the love and care she needs. She'll be so happy with a soft, warm place to sleep, good food, clean water, and so many scratches and pets! Call or text The Pet Connection at 913-671-7387 if you can help Yari. She's in the KC metro, but transport might be available to the right home.

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Latté is an extremely sweet, but sassy girl. She has that tortititude, but loves to give kisses and licks. Your skin is free real estate to her licks! I have 2 other cats she tolerates, a 9 year old female and a one year old male! She gives my male a bit of attitude when he tries to play and she's not feeling it, but that's just her tortititude. Although, most that attitude is just her grumbling and running away! She's also good with everyone, including the Christmas tree (hasn't knocked it down or anything)! Kids, adults, etc! I'm a kid myself, and she tolerates me, so I know she'll do well with kids and cats! Dogs on the other hand, I don't have any so do take it slow if you want to try! If you find out she's not a good match for you, before a month is over you can return her if need be! I'm fostering her right now, and luckily I don't have a limit of when she's got to go, so hopefully Latté will be a good choice for your life! 🙇🏽‍♀️❤️

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Blizzy was born to a friend with multiple litters and was raised by a full family with 2 large dogs, 2 other cats, and a newborn all the way to 10months. Blizzy is the best family house cat. Blizzy comes to her name, knows when feeding time is, and consistently uses her litter box. She loves kids and can’t get enough pets from them. She looks to dogs and cats for affection by rubbing her face with theirs. She is fine laying down in your lap, or playing with lasers, feathers, and anything that moves like a mouse would! She has a unique short tail as well as a unique coat coloring. Shes a blondie and certainly acts like it sometimes, but all of the time she’s a sweet girl!
