Story
Ham is the sweetest boy you could hope to adopt. Despite his size, he is actually a massive baby. He loves to be held and once a routine is established, may even demand it. Before adopting Ham, I never knew cats could love belly rubs so much. After coming home for the day, he will make eye contact and immediately expose his belly for rubs. He resembles one of those big dogs that don't realize they are massive and wants to be on top of you all the time. Like most cats, he can be pretty chatty when he is hungry or wants attention, but this man has the funniest "old man" meow that always manages to lighten the mood. If it weren't for his size, we would love to keep him. Unfortunately we believe his size is why he doesn't get along with our other cats. We have two girls that are pretty small, and they can't handle the way he likes to play. We hope he ends up in a home where he can be the center of attention all the time! Or at least not the biggest cat in the home. :)

Story
Meet Amanda! She came to us in July 2022 with her sister Katlyn after being born under a porch (mom is feral and has been fixed then returned to her neighborhood). Amanda is now an 11-month-old kitten looking for a loving family. She loves climbing on her cat tower, cuddling on her terms, and chasing the laser light. She is being fostered with other cats and dogs too. Amanda has a calm demeanor, she is always watching the shenanigans around her. She is litterbox trained, spayed, dewormed, flea and parasite-free, and FIV/FeLV negative. She will make a great addition to most families! If you are interested in adoption; DO NOT CALL, please complete an online application on 4 Paws Animal Rescue's website at www.4pawz.org. We verify the care of past/current pets. Our goal is to have the very best home for all our dogs and cats, and therefore, we reserve the right to approve or deny an application based on what we determine is in the pet's best interest. #lovecatsforever #kittens #kitty  #rescuedisthebest #cats #catsareacommittment #rescuecat #lovecats #adopt #adoptdontshop

Oreo is a sweet, lovable, kind kitty. He loves to be cuddled and will tell you so. His favorite pastimes are sleeping and watching tv. He loves the chase the mouse videos on YouTube. He needs someone who can give lots of attention to him and monitor his diet to help him lose weight so he can live his best life.

Story
Looking for an adorable supervisor for your home? Look no further! I am a curious, silly, and brave kitty who loves to know what's happening. When I'm not in your business, I love to play with my toys (carboard boxes are my favorite) and cuddle with my loving humans! I also grew up with my brother, Biscoff -- so I know and love to play with kitties too! I am ready for that perfect home that wants an adorable little girl to make them smile. I am in Tennessee, but can be transported to the Northeast region to meet you if needed. If you are interested in adopting me, please contact Critter Cavalry Rescue at ccrnewengland@gmail.com.November 16, 2024, 8:47 pm

Hi everyone! I am truly a real life teddy bear. I’m a VERY sweet, relaxed, and easygoing kitty who loves to hear myself talk! While napping with my humans is my favorite hobby, I love to wrestle with my sibling (Kitten Oreo) when the time is right. Give me a soft lap and yummy food, and I’ll be the purrfect kitten for you! I am a lover boy who is so excited to meet my best friends furever! I am in Tennessee, but can be transported to the Northeast region to meet you if needed!

Hey guys, it really breaks my heart to have to surrender this cat but he was abandoned by an ex-girlfriend and I am currently about to move and I don’t have the means to take him with me. He is a really sweet boy and he just needs a family to love him. Very loving, kind, and energetic.
