Story
Weve been fostering kittens for the past 5 years and have become known among our circles for taking in kittens that need help. We were contacted in December 2023 to pick up these guys! They were out in rural Texas, about 1.5 hours northeast of Dallas. Weve been caring for them since then and we finally feel ready to find their furrever homes! She has been spayed and up to date on rabies, FVRCP, FeLV vaccinations, dewormer, and flea treatment. I will do my best to compile vet records and provide them! Smore is a little over a year old. She is very sweet, but slightly timid. She loves to play, but youre more likely to find her lounging and observing the world. She loves paper balls and ribbon toys. :) She would likely be happiest with another cat as long as they are chill and wont overwhelm her (she gets along well with our cats). She has more anxiety and needs a soft touch to be comfortable. Side note: she has one of the most unique and beautiful tricolor coats Ive ever seen.

Story
Weve been fostering kittens for the past 5 years and have become known among our circles for taking in kittens that need help. We were contacted in December 2023 to pick up these guys! They were out in rural Texas, about 1.5 hours northeast of Dallas. We found a friendly mamma cat with her two skittish but docile kittens. Weve been caring for them since then! She has been spayed and up to date on rabies, FVRCP, FeLV vaccinations, dewormer, and flea treatment. I will do my best to compile vet records and provide them! Autumn is roughly 3 years old. She is INCREDIBLY sweet and gets along with our other cats. The vet told us shes probably had several litters, so she is an experienced stray mamma cat. Because of her history, she is cautious. She needs an adopter who knows how to read cats to best adapt to her personality, but once you are on her good side shes very trusting and lively. Feel free to contact me with any questions - were committed to finding the perfect home for her!

Hello! This is Ginger! If you're an old Hollywood fan, you'll know she's named after Ginger Rogers for her contagious personality, kindness, and love of playing and spinning around the floor. She can be reserved and timid initially, but once you show her how loved she is, she'll melt in your arms. She's one of three from her adopted mother. Unfortunately, I lost my job and can no longer provide for her the way she deserves. She's less than a year old. Shots are up to date as of 2/20/25! I just want to give her a kind and loving home. She deserves it.

Hiya! This is Tux, also known as Tuxedo. Honestly, he is the most caring, cuddly cat in the world. That's all he wants to do. Just sit in your lap, expressing his thanks with a gentle love bite. Tux is about 6 months old. I just want this little guy to go to a loving, caring, playful home!

Story
This neutered male kitty was found on February the 17, 2025 at the Rowlett Recreation Center. He is chatty, energetic, playful and sweet. However, he does not get along with our two older female cats (sisters) so I would recommend a one cat home. I really don’t know much about him other than he is chipped by a rescue organization but I was not given the name of the organization nor the chip number by vet. We are no longer able to keep him in our home and have been advised by Animal Control and Veterinarian to release him where we found him but I would rather have him place in a loving home.
