Moxie is polite, sweet and was the best mother to her five kittens (Jujube, Taffy, Skittles, Rolo, York) that have all been adopted. Moxie is actually quite petite and is full grown at 6 lbs. She is graceful and radiates a regal presence. Moxie's coat is black with chocolate highlights and random flecks of white. She is still a young playful cat herself at an estimated 1.5 years old. Moxie seems to favor a dog’s personality and likes to lie at your feet. Moxie loves belly rubs and will occasionally talk to you in a low coo. She is not an in your face cat. Moxie is named for the lengths she went to protect her kittens. Moxie was a stray community cat that everyone thought was semi-feral, but she has proven she is nothing more than an affectionate girl once she warms up to you. Moxie is being raised in a foster home with three large dogs and two senior male cats. Moxie does exceptionally well with all the animals in the foster home and has even won over the cranky senior cats! Moxie's foster parents had her microchipped as an added benefit for Moxie and her new forever family. It should be noted that introduction with cats and dogs should be taken very slowly if you do not know how your dog will react.
All of our cats and kittens have been fostered in a home environment and are litter box trained, up-to-date on age appropriate vaccinations, spayed/neutered, and have been tested for FIV and FeLV prior to being made available for adoption.
We encourage you to consider adopting kittens in pairs. Kittens find it especially comforting and having a built-in playmate often helps them integrate into their new family more easily. Reduced adoption fees may also apply.

Rescue Group Info...
Our mission is to effect change in the way community cats are viewed and treated in the City of Edmond.
Our primary focus is to humanely and non-lethally reduce the numbers of free-roaming community cats in the City of Edmond by implementing an aggressive Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) program.
TNR is the most effective long-term approach to reducing the feral cat population in the City of Edmond. TNR involves humanely trapping, spaying/neutering, vaccinating, marking for identification, and then returning of feral cats to the location from which they were trapped so that they may live out their lives. TNR respects feral cats' right to live, and their niche in the community, without adding to the homeless cat population. TNR stabilizes the feral cat population and, over time, reduces it while substantially reducing or eliminating nuisance behaviors.
Through the process of TNR, we regularly encounter friendly, unowned, stray cats as well as young kittens that can be socialized. All are vetted and put into adoption.
All donations are tax deductible.
Thank you for your interest in adopting a rescued cat. Each year there are tens of thousands of cats that are made homeless in Oklahoma City and the surrounding areas. Sadly, there are more cats than there are suitable homes.
We take adoptions very seriously. Our adoptable cats are typically found as strays trying to survive in feral cat colonies where they were either abandoned, neglected, or abused. We are the only advocates for the cats we rescue, and feel that it is critical for our adoptable cats be placed in safe, loving, caring and permanent homes. Whether you plan to adopt an adult cat or a kitten, you are making a 10-20 year commitment to that feline. Therefore, we reserve the right to deny the adoption of a cat to anyone whom we feel will not provide humane, responsible, and lifetime care of the cat.
All of our cats and kittens have been fostered in a home environment and are litter box trained, up-to-date on age appropriate vaccinations, spayed/neutered, and have been tested for FIV and FeLV prior to being made available for adoption.
Though not a requirement in most cases, we encourage you to at least consider adopting kittens in pairs. Kittens find it especially comforting – and having a built-in playmate often helps them integrate into their new family more easily.
