My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Athena is a spayed female gray-and-white tabby kitten, born in August 2025. She is the kind of cat who gives off main-character energy without even trying. Graceful, observant, and just a little mysterious, she carries herself like she’s got ancient wisdom tucked behind those golden eyes. Kids who respect her space will earn her trust (and maybe a head bump of approval). If you’re looking for a cat who feels like both a guardian and a gentle muse, Athena’s ready to bless your home with her quiet, knowing charm. Indoor cat only! The adoption fee is $75. This covers the cost of spay/neuter, PVR, Rabies, flea, tick, ear mite and worm treatment. To adopt, you need to first fill out an application. Go to:

More about this rescue

Rutherford County Humane Society is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization that has been serving Rutherford County since 1979, with the mission to significantly improve the lives of unwanted and neglected animals, and to measurably decrease this number through our spay and neuter programs, volunteer foster homes, and outreach and education. We are an independent organization that works in collaboration with other area animal advocacy groups. All of our efforts depend on our passionately compassionate volunteers, and financial support from the community. We have made the decision to use our resources to continue promoting the number one solution to our pet overpopulation problem - and that is spay/neuter. Our mailing address is still PO Box 998, Rutherfordton, NC 28139. Our website (http://rutherfordcountyhumanesociety.org) is always current, and you can contact us through the web. You will receive a prompt reply. We have adoptable pets posted on the site. If you need to find a home for a pet, you may contact us to have your pet posted on our website. We also post on Adopt a Pet.
