Adopt Twizzle, a Striped Tiger Cat with Sizzle

Twizzle is a gray and white striped tiger cat looking for a new home.

My name is Twizzle. I did not pick my name, or my coat, but I think both fit me quite nicely. I love my grey and white outfit with its subtle stripes.  That’s the understated side of me.  As you read further, you’ll learn more about my extra sizzle.  OK, those are big words for a kitten so you know I am getting some help writing this. After all, I am just a little guy. Like all kittens, I love to play.  I will chase anything, but I especially enjoy that long grey thing I keep glimpsing behind me. I run after it in circles and cannot seem to catch it. It is always just out of my reach, but I do plan to catch it eventually.  I am a persistent little fellow.  In the meantime, I’m happy to catch the tails of my playmates. I can resist pouncing…

Adopt Spryng, A Beautiful Cat in an Elegant Tuxedo

Who says tuxedos are just for boy cats?

My name is Spryng and I believe in unisex dressing since I am a girl tuxedo cat. Don’t you think I look mighty fine in my dress-up fur? Ok, so I have big feet, but double paws are considered cute in a cat. I like my white socks and I use my big paws to play with catnip mice and grab at any string you might dangle my way.  I may look a bit formal, but I am really just a year-old kitten looking for a fun time. That is not to say I am a party animal. I am actually very picky about my friends. I need to really know you before I let loose and have fun. My foster family is nice, but they had to prove they were patient and sweet….which they are. Now, when they call me, I come running and sometimes I like to sleep on their bed.   Although I can be…

Adopt Tré Cool, a Truly Awesome Cat

Tré Cool, a six-year-old orange cat, is bright, friendly, and curious.

My name is Tré Cool. Like my namesake the rock drummer, I believe that “Everyone is entitled to our opinion.” And, in our opinion, I am truly a cool cat.   I am also bright, friendly, and curious. At six years old, I am settled, but still active and playful. However, you need not worry that I have any other Tré Cool qualities. No drums….no cymbals…and the only backup vocals you will hear are when I am forced to ride in a car. Don’t worry, once I arrive at my destination I will settle happily into the swing of things, as was the case went I went to my foster home.  My foster family is wonderful, but just between us, I am eager to find a permanent home. I am looking for people as wonderful as my previous owners, who loved me very much.  …

Adopt Connor, a Handsome Maine Coon Mix

This handsome cat has a penchant for snuggling.

I may look a bit self-satisfied in my photos, but that is just my catitude.  If you ask my foster, she will tell you I am a love-muffin.  Ask me, and I will tell you I am an independent, smart, healthy, young Maine coon mix who loves warm laps, tasty food, and catnip toys.  Topmost on my list of favorite things is snuggling.  When my foster mom walks into the room, I go over and rub her ankles.  I used to wait for her to pick me up because I was a little shy, but now, I just  jump right on her lap where I could nap for hours.  Believe it or not, given the choice, I would rather cuddle than eat.  Settling down on my favorite recliner, where I can purr and nuzzle my foster mom to my heart’s content—now that’s what I call heaven.  I really …

Adopt Stuart, a Friendly Orange Cat

A friendly, sweet guy seeks love and affection.

Let me introduce myself. I’m Stuart and I’m a real lap cat. There is nowhere I would rather be than sitting in your lap and nothing I would like better than being patted. I promise that I am not one of those felines that will tease you with a quick visit, jumping off the minute things don’t go my way. If you like to cuddle, I would be your dream feline since I will roll over for you. Can you be sure to give me some belly rubs while you are at it?  If you look at my picture, you will see that I have a really beautiful and touchable tummy. I hope you can tell that I am a people guy. I am going to wait in the window for you to come home from work and I will greet you at the door.  I will put my paws on your shoulders to look at you eye-to-eye…

Adopt Scotchie, an Orange and White Cat

Orange and white Scotchie is the complete package.

My name is Scotchie and I am an amazing feline with red and white fur and luminous green eyes. Sweet, gentle and playful, I love people. In fact, even though I haven’t met you yet, I already know that I like you. Call me and I will come running to you for a head scratch and a play session. I love to chase the cat dancer toy and I will chase any string or ball you send my way. Pile up some pennies for me and I will play hockey with them. I must have been a Bruin in another life. Besides liking people, I am great with other animals. As long as they respect my space, dogs do not faze me at all. I like cats, too, and I know how not to be aggressive if they are just not that into me. I mean, why should I bother when there are so many other …

Adopt Brewster, a Black Cat with Green Eyes

Beautiful green-eyed Brewster seeks his soul mate.

My name is Brewster and I am a two-year-old with spectacular green eyes and the silkiest black medium-haired coat you ever did touch. Please, do not think I am conceited when I describe myself this way. It is just a fact that I am very handsome and wonderful. I want you to know that I not going to let you love me for my beauty alone. I am looking for a very special person or persons who will take the time to get to know the real me. If you do, I think you will find that I have a lot more to offer than silky fur and amazing eyes. Right now, I am living in a wonderful foster home with very nice people. They are so friendly and I especially like when they shine the laser light for me. That game turns me right back into a kitten; it makes me …
