Purrrfect Companions
Adopt a cat ‘cause cats are cool. A cat
(or two) makes every house more fun! Here
are just a few of our cool cats (and kittens).
Leonard is a super chill, friendly, social
guy who is okay with other mellow, beta cats.
Leonard. Yara.
He is a precious, gentle, sweet, loving guy.
His last family abandoned him after declawing
him, which is unconscionable. Luckily,
he was taken in by a rescue volunteer and
has since been in a safe, loving foster home.
Leonard looks forward to his human pals
coming home after work, and loves getting
petted and having dinner before bedtime.
Playful and adventurous, he is an explorer at
heart. Leonard is also expressive and loves
attention. Getting petted and brushed is his
number one favorite activity. You will love
this cat. He is truly amazing.
Higgins was a kitten just last year and
hasn’t quite accepted the fact that he’s now
a 12-pound adult. He still overflows with
energy and absolutely loves playtime. His
favorite thing is a fishing pole toy that his
person can operate while he chases, leaps and
pounces. Since he is such a little “helper,”
you have to be sure you check before closing
that drawer, or the closet…or the refrigerator.
Higgins is generally a confident guy and
would be a great family cat. He doesn’t live
with children, but has had no problem letting
them pet him at adoption events. Higgins is
an alpha. He shares his foster home with
several other cats and gets along fine with
most, but will bully a couple that don’t stand
up to him. Higgins really seems to prefer his
people, so he wouldn’t be the best choice if
you specifically want a playmate for your
resident cat. He has done well when briefly
introduced to a dog.
Ivy is the adorable runt of her litter. She
has consistently been the smallest, but that
doesn’t stop her from playing just as tough
with her siblings. This tiny girl is such a
sweetheart and absolutely melts anyone who
sees her. Ivy loves to curl up for naps on
the couch with her humans and knows she
has us wrapped around her little paw. Ivy
has typical kitten energy and needs to be
in a home where she will have another cat
for playtime. Ivy would love to be adopted
with one of her siblings: Selina Kyle, Harley
Quinn, or Bruce Wayne. However, she would
be able to adjust to other cats as well.
Bruce is a very friendly, cheerful little guy
who’s eager to be friends with everyone he
meets. Bruce chirps rather than meows and
he has a very robust purr. He will walk right
up to you to ask for pets by rubbing against
your legs. Bruce has typical kitten energy
and needs to be in a home where he can play
with another cat. One of his sisters, Selina
Kyle, Harley Quinn, or Poison Ivy, would
be a great playmate for Bruce if you don’t
already have another feline friend for him.
Lucky has the sweetest face, with stunning
light green eyes and a black smudge on his
nose. He has an amazing personality and
loves to play with tons of toys--especially
wand and feather toys. A very curious and
adventurous kitten, Lucky also loves to
sit by a window and sightsee for a while.
When he’s not exploring and playing, you
may catch him relaxing with his back legs
all stretched out. He is a purr machine who
loves to snuggle, since he was rescued at
only a couple of days old and was bottle-fed
his entire life. Since Lucky is so young and
playful, he would do best in a home with
another kitten or young cat.
Sam has the cutest face, with little tufts of
white in his ears. His favorite time of day is
feeding time, and boy does he let his foster
mom know it! He herds her towards the food
in the morning and again at night. When the
treat bag comes out, he’s beside himself with
joy. He takes a minute to warm up to you…
but when he does, he wants nothing more
than to play. Feather toys are his favorite,
followed by hugs and grooming from him.
Because he’s young and likes to play, he
would love a friend. Maybe check out one
of his siblings: Arya, Aemon, Theon or Yara.
Yara is a dilute Tortie with the cutest pink
nose, which is why her foster mom also
calls her Pinky. She is Miss Tortie-tude upon
meeting her. Don’t let her grumpy face fool
you. Once she warms up to you, Yara loves
to box with her paws, play with her mouse
toy, and curl up on your lap for pets and a
nap. At her young age, Yara likes to play. She
would love a friend and any of her siblings,
Arya, Aemon, Theon or Sam, would make
the perfect duo.
As a young kitten, Ellaria was pulled
from the car engine by a receptionist at a
Kitten Rescue partner veterinarian. This little
gem is very soft and incredibly affectionate
with people. Her coat is unique and gorgeous
and is pale and fluffy with adorable
markings. Ellaria can’t wait to find a loving
home where she can be someone’s spoiled
little princess. She would be fine as a solo
cat or with another kitty who lets her be the
boss and gives her space as desired. Although
Ellaria gets along with the other cats in her
foster home, she prefers to play on her own
time and often independently.
