Beauty (MD-C-8383)

Beauty is gorgeous two-year old female. Beauty is so regal, and everyone that has seen her says that she is very elegant. She is a classic tabby with beautiful markings and has a very soft coat. She is quiet, reserved, and a bit on the shy side at first. Once she gets to know you, she's fine. She is a very caring kitty that will show love to her human once she feels comfortable with them. Beauty will do best with a single owner, no young children. She needs a patient, quiet owner who will give her lots of love. She really responds when given attention by her foster mom. She is a lovely kitty that deserves a great home. Won't you please consider inviting her in?

Becca (MJC-C-8177)

Becca is a 2-paw declawed 1 1/2 year old female gray tabby. Although she doesn't like to be held, she will greet and rub against you for attention. She wants her head and back petted. She needs a quiet adult home that will give her the time she needs to acclimate. She loves caring for kittens. It would be great to have her adopted with a kitten.

Cinderelli (PM-C-8637)

Cinderelli is a sweet, petite, 1 to 2 yr. old female "torbi" - (tortoiseshell tabby). She has medium length fur with beautiful red highlights. She came to us emaciated and starving, and has now put on some weight and is a beautiful girl. She is friendly, affectionate and likes attention. She likes to sit next to you and be petted, but doesn't particularly like to be picked up and held. She is quiet, for the most part, and not particularly playful. She likes to help her foster mom around the office by helping her type on the keyboard and batting at pens. She coexists with the resident cat in her foster home, but doesn't interact with him very much. She is a great cat in need of a quiet, nurturing home. She will make a wonderful companion for someone ready to do some one-on-one bonding. Please come and meet this deserving little girl and give her a forever home.

Electra (LB-C-8676)

Electra is a 3 month old female "torbi" (tabby-torti). Though she is mostly tabby she has some pale peach pastel calico markings. She is semi-longhaired and an overall beauty. Electra came in a bit on the shy side but is adjusting wonderfully in her new foster home. She is now out playing with her sister Minx all the time and becoming more sociable and more affectionate. When you pick her up, she purrs like crazy. She is still somewhat tentative and needs to gain a bit more confidence before we could say she'd be suitable for a home with children, so for now, adults only please.

Gabrielle (TR-C-8137)

Gabrielle is a beautiful "torbi" (tabby with faint tortoishell markings) about 1 1/2 yrs. old. She's a sweet, gentle girl that was found on the street and has adjusted beautifully in a home, probably because she must’ve originally been living in one, as she is front-paw declawed. Gabby has the sweetest little "meow" which she only uses when her foster mom enters the kitchen, as if to say “Catnip, please!” She likes to be pet and will offer you her tummy for tummy rubs. When her foster mom is on the couch or in bed, Gabby loves to be near or ON her and head butts for LOTS of pets and scratches. While Gabby enjoys affection, she is never demanding or begs for attention. As a matter of fact, she doesn’t linger for hours on end, instead enjoying a good petting and then off to a comfy spot on the couch or floor. Because of Gabby’s life on the streets, quick movements and a tall body (any person is tall to a cat!) towering over her or approaching her too quickly scares her and she runs away. Because of this, we believe she would do best in a quiet adults-only home. Gabby would be perfect for a single person or a childless couple. This little sweetie is no trouble at all. If you're looking for a low maintenance new companion, come meet Gabby!

Gypsy (MJC-C-8146)

Calling all calico lovers! Gypsy is a 5 year old pastel calico female, a plush soft grey with some amber highlights. She is front-paw declawed. Gypsy is a sweet, quiet, low-maintenance type girl who would thrive best in a quiet adult home. She is not at all shy, and likes to be petted and near you, but prefers not to be manhandled too much. She doesn't seem to care for other cats very much but, interestingly, doesn't mind dogs (as long as they're respectful of her, of course!) Gypsy is tired of her wandering and is looking for a nice comfortable home to settle down in and a forever family to shower with affection. Might that be you?

Harriet (TI-C-8141)

Harriet is a 1 yr. old black and white girl - A cat that is on the shy side at first, but once she feels comfortable, she loves to play! A striking cat with dramatic markings, she lets you know when she wants attention and turns her head to let you know right where she wants to be petted. Loves a good belly scratch! Her favorite toy is a catnip mouse attached to a long string. She needs a patient owner who will grow with her as her confidence increases.

Kashi (MGAH-C-8674)

Kashi is a sweet white and tabby girl with a fantastic "raccoon" tail. She is about 2 years old. She is currently undergoing treatment for an eye infection, so she's not looking her best right now, but she's responding nicely and in a week or two will be good as new. In the meantime, she can still be adopted but should not go into a home with other cats. Stay tuned for updates on this little charmer, and more pictures as she starts to perk up.

Kiki (AM-C-8661)

Kiki is a white/cream colored siamese mix, about 2 years old. She is a loving girl, sweet and affectionate to everyone. Kiki is extremely playful and cute. She follows her foster family from room to room in the house and loves to give "nose kisses." While she is technically not a kitten anymore, she will play with anything she can get her paws on! Her favorite toys are her ball and fishing pole. Kiki is also a beautiful cat. We call her our "little lemur" because of her ringed tail.

Kiki is looking for a home where she'll get lots of love and attention. She would like nothing better than to be curled up by your fireplace this winter. If you're looking for a sweetheart of a kitty, come meet Kiki - you won't be disappointed!

She is quite the socialite, very friendly, and specializes in purring. She loves being in the spotlight and will take all the attention you give her. She's looking for a new place to call home with a comfy bed and some good food. Because she is longhaired, she will need regular grooming. Marissa would love nothing more than to be pampered, and in return will shower you with affection. If you're looking for a longhaired beauty, look no further than Marissa!

Marnie (MM-C-8370)

Marnie is a 2 yr. old gray tabby female. She has the most gorgeous green eyes - Her pictures don't do her justice. She's a sweet and friendly girl who likes attention and affection, which she will happily reciprocate. She likes to watch TV with you, will sit on your lap, and will help you do your paperwork at a table or desk. She likes to sleep with you and cuddle under the covers. She tolerates dogs, but prefers to be without them. Though she currently lives with two other cats we believe she'd be happiest as an only cat.

She loves to play with her sister Electra and is becoming more and more affectionate and purring as each day goes by. As of now, she is still too timid to be in a home with children, so will need a quiet adults-only environment. If you're looking for two, Electra and Minx would love to go to their forever home together.

Mystery (MS-C-8308)

This gentle and affectionate girl is a 1 1/2 year old gorgeous black beauty - her pictures don't do her justice. Mystery is a playful, agile cat who loves to play with her fishing pole and, while playing, does backflips and stands on her hind legs. Most of the time, she can be found sleeping in a cozy place. She loves to chat in the morning while waiting for her breakfast. She waits by the door when you come home. Mystery loves lots of attention and will share her attention with as many people as she can get. She is tolerant of both children and dogs. She is not in a home with other cats, so we don't know for sure if she is cat-friendly, but based on her acceptance of dogs we assume she will be fine with other cat-friendly cats. Mystery is the sweetest girl - come meet her, you will just love her!

Look at me! I am a gorgeous, fluffy, longhaired pastel calico beauty. I'm a very sweet and friendly girl, about 3 years old. I'm a total lap cat and I can't wait to climb up onto your lap, stretch my paws up onto your shoulders, look into your eyes and purr. I can manage with another cat but my foster home thinks I'd be happiest if I didn't have to share you. Wouldn't you like to bring me home and make me part of your family?

Are you already beginning to miss the winter snow? Bring home this little cutie and have your very own Snowball year round!

Tiki (JSL-C-8621)

Hi, my name is Tiki. Do you have a home for me? I came from downstate Illinois, but somehow I ended up lost and in a shelter. But one night the shelter burned down, and I was one of the few lucky animals that escaped with my life. I've recovered from that ordeal, and I am such a sweet little housecat. I am about 10 months old, but quite petite. I've got medium length hair and beautiful golden eyes. Everyone says I am so unusual and cute looking. I love kids, adults and other cats. I enjoy playing with toys and taking long naps on the beds and couches. I'd love to curl up with you on your couch and know that I have finally found a forever home. Please come to meet me!

She loves to be at the top of the cat tree and view everything that is going on around her and when she is ready for some petting, she will give a delicate, high-pitched meow to let you know. Trixie is looking for a quiet home with a special person or family to share her life with. She and her brother Scooter are very bonded and would love to go to their new home together. At the very least, she must go to a home with another kitty companion.
