Bombay kittens & cats in Houston, Texas

ADORES NONSTOP HEAD MASSAGES AND CHEEK SCRATCHES  DOB 4/13/25 Hey there, everyone! I’m Pluto, a sweet, friendly, and loving Bombay mix gal with copper-penny eyes and a sleek, shiny black-patent leather coat. True to a Bombay’s nature, I’m a certified Velcro kitty who loves to stick right next to my Foster Meowmy or follow her wherever she goes. When she walks into the foster room, I’m the first of my seven foster mates to greet her. To show my delight in seeing her, I immediately drop my whole body on its side or rub my pheromones on her hands and ankles. I can be a cuddle bug as long as she’s massaging my head or scratching my cheeks, chin, and ears nonstop. Although I’m not a huge fan of being held, I prefer for Foster Meowmy to hold me to her chest with my paws over her shoulder. After my feral momma birthed Karma, Jupiter, Opal, and me outside of Foster Meowmy’s house, Momma moved us through an open window to inside a neighbor’s car . . . and then again a few doors down to a used-car business. Imagine Foster Meowmy’s surprise when she looked inside an old car and found not only us under the driver’s seat but also another litter of four kittens under the passenger’s seat!! When we were five weeks old and could eat on our own, Foster Meowmy gathered up both of our stowaway litters and brought us all inside to the safe haven of her home. You can imagine the mayhem that eight kittens can wreak inside our foster room! Although I will tumble and pounce, climb and wrestle with my siblings, I really prefer to spend my time lounging. We’ve all got a little mischief in our genes because we love to escape the foster room to sniff around and explore other parts of the house, but I’m usually the mastermind with the most ingenious plan to lead my siblings in our jailbreak. Now I’m ready to bring the sleek, shiny beauty and Velcro-stickiness of a Bombay to my forever family. Could that be you? Then arrange to meet me today! If you’re looking for a pair of kittens, please consider adopting me with one of the other #car-stowaways. We think it’d be the cat’s meow if we could be adopted in pairs so we could be playmates and cuddle buddies while you’re at work or on vacation. HOPE ID 25-0614-A048 Pluto’s $125 adoption fee includes spay/neuter, basic vaccines, microchip and registration, testing for FIV/FeLV, negative fecal test, and preventative treatment against fleas and parasites.

EASY-GOING LOVEBUG  DOB 9/1/21 Howdy everyone! I’m Indy, a handsome, easy-going black DSH/ Bombay mix dude with a sleek, shiny patent-leather coat and big, copper-penny eyes. It took me a while to learn that being petted, chin scratches, and lap time with my foster dad might just be a good thing. My momma Luna led the way, so I started curling up on my foster dad’s warm chest for a quick power nap and discovered that it was pretty delightful. My favorite pastimes include following my foster dad into the bathroom (Bombay mixes can be very dog-like), looking handsome, and watching the world go by as I bask in a patch of sunshine on a windowsill. My favorite likes are dry food, toys with tassels, and warm beds.  Arrange to meet me today. Find out if YOUR chest could be my next napping station! https://photos.app.goo.gl/9LhdD26NmAhzMUtGA HOPE ID 21-1204-C089 Indy's $125 adoption fee includes spay/neuter, basic vaccines, microchip and registration, testing for FIV/FeLV, negative fecal test, and preventative treatment against fleas and parasites.

WHAT AN ADORABLE MINI-PANTHER!  DOB 4/2/25 Hey there, everyone! I’m Frankie, and I’m a sweet, friendly, easygoing, and gentle Bombay mix fella who knows my name and comes when Foster Meowmy calls me! I like it when Foster Meowmy holds me when she’s sitting down, but, like a lot of kitties, I’m not crazy about being picked up and carried around. Of course I luxuriate when she scratches my ears, cheeks, and chin. Like most Bombay mixes, I look like a little panther with my sleek, shiny black patent-leather coat and my copper-penny eyes. Foster Meowmy trapped my foster buddy Sweet Peach and me because she thought we were feral kittens, but we ended up being friendly enough for her to keep us inside to try to socialize us instead of releasing us back outdoors. Her efforts panned out, and we tamed up nicely after about a month. Although Sweet Peach and I are not littermates, we are very bonded to each other. We both love to play interactively with Foster Meowmy when she waves the wand toy over our heads or wiggles it around the room like a snake for us to chase. I’m a dominant male, and whereas Sweet Peach thinks I’m wonderful, there’s a good deal of tension when I’m around Foster Meowmy’s resident cats. Now I’m ready to bring my sweet personality and panther-like good looks to my forever family. Could that be you? Arrange to meet me today! Although we’re available separately, consider adopting me with Sweet Peach. Two is more fun than one, and we can be playmates and cuddle buddies while you’re at work or on vacation. HOPE ID 25-1018-S057 Frankie’s $125 adoption fee includes spay/neuter, basic vaccines, microchip and registration, testing for FIV/FeLV, negative fecal test, and preventative treatment against fleas and parasites. To apply online: http://www.homelesspets.net/adoption-forms/cat-adoption.php If you have questions prior to filling out the application or want to find out which adoption site Frankie will be this weekend, email us at nancy.e.kline@hotmail.com, and a volunteer will get back to you.

Hi, I’m Hops, a social butterfly with penchant for gossip and play. I got my name because I was found outside, limping and crying for help. My leg has now healed, but the name stands—plus, I am now known for my high hops and tunes (yes, I’ll sing a little hip-hop of my own). A friendly and chatty soul, I love to greet you with cute chirps and abundant pets. The perfect companion, I’ll lounge by your side, zig zag around your legs, and even sit on your feet, making myself simply irresistible (belly rubs too, pls). Despite being over a year old, I am quite playful, often hopping after wand toys like a 6 mo old kitten. I would be an excellent solo cat companion or your kitten or cat’s play buddy! Full of hugs, hops, and hip hop, I’m ready to Hops into your life today! So Hippity Hoppity, take me into your property :) -Reach out to meet me today! -Or see me at PetSmart 2902 S Shepherd Dr Sat and Sun 1130-4p.

Hi! I'm Sky, the sweetest, cuddliest little angel you'll ever meet. I love a good petting session and will happily soak up all your affection. I'm a smart kitty! My main language is English, but I'm currently studying Spanish and Vietnamese. I can also count to 1. I might need about 30 seconds to warm up to strangers, but after that, we'll be best buddies. Will you be my bestest friend for life? -Reach out to meet me ASAP -See me at Petsmart 2902 S Shepherd Dr Sat and Sun 1130-4p.

COMES RUNNING WHEN SHE HEARS HER NAME CALLED  DOB 9/10/17 Hey there, everyone! I’m Lilly a sweet, friendly Bombay mix gal, a mini-panther with big amber eyes, who comes running when Foster Meowmy calls my name! That’s because I know what’s in store -- either petting or yummy treats. Foster Meowmy knows just how to scratch the top of my head, ears, chin, and cheeks so that I’m in ecstatic bliss. However, like most kitties, I’m not a big fan of being picked up and held. I’m great with most people, dogs, and other cats, although, when necessary, I’m independent enough to keep to myself and not be too “needy.” When I was barely more than a kitten myself, I ran into future Foster Meowmy’s apartment one rainy day, hid under her bed, and gave birth to four kittens a few hours later. When Foster Meowmy got me fully vetted, she discovered that I was positive for Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV+), which I probably contracted from the deep bite wound from another cat. (Unlike Feline Leukemia, FIV is NOT passed on "casually" by sharing food bowls and litter boxes with other household cats.) Being FIV positive means that I should live an average life span as long as my dental health is routinely monitored and prompt attention is given to any urinary-tract or upper-respiratory infections. Now that HOPE has a few pet-store partners who allow FIV+ kitties to come to adoption events, Foster Meowmy hopes that I can find my forever home. Since I get along with most two-legged and four-legged critters, there are lots of homes where I’d fit like a glove. Since I’d been used to (and loved!) being outside before I met Foster Meowmy, I’ve never been a big fan of being indoors. It would be great if I could find a home with a screened window or “catio” where I could feel close to the outdoors while still remaining safe and sound.  Arrange to meet me today! Let’s write new chapters in our lives together! HOPE ID 25-0226-A006 Lilly's $125 adoption fee includes spay/neuter, basic vaccines, microchip and registration, testing for FIV/FeLV, negative fecal test, and preventative treatment against fleas and parasites. To apply online: http://www.homelesspets.net/adoption-forms/cat-adoption.php If you have questions prior to filling out the application or want to find out which adoption site Lilly will be this weekend, email us at sfenicle1@gmail.com, and a volunteer will get back to you.

Meet Scoobie!! This handsome guy and his best bud Jimmy Jr. are searching for their forever home in the new year!!! Adoption Application: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ROSE/cat Scoobie is ~9 month old! After being found as a stray, Scoobie quickly settled into life as an indoor kitten. He loves to play with toys and foster siblings. He is a huge fan of sleeping in dog beds or large cat beds with his best buddy Jimmy Jr.. When the mood strikes him, he will zip up and down the halls chasing balls or other rolling toys. At night both boys will join their people on the bed for cuddles. Priority will be given to applicants interested in adopting a pair of kittens or who have patient, playful resident cats or dogs at home. Scoobie has not met a dog before, but with slow and careful introductions to a well-behaved dog we think he would do great with a new pup sibling! --- Information on why adopting two kittens is better for their short- and long-term health can be found here: http://www.kittenlady.org/twokittens Scoobie will be microchipped, neutered, and up to date on age-appropriate vaccines prior to adoption. They are in excellent health! The adoption application can be found here: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ROSE/Cat Scoobie is currently in Houston, Texas but can be transported to the Northeast, the Pacific Northwest, or locations along these routes. ——— ABOUT OUR ADOPTION FEES: When you adopt from ROSES Rescues, you're doing more than giving your new family member a home. Each adoption fee pays for a cat on the streets of Houston to get fixed, helping end the cycle of overpopulation in a rough environment. We thank you so much for your contribution to our efforts!

Meet Bella Noche, the beautiful and cuddly void kitty of your dreams! Adoption Application: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ROSE/Cat Bella Noche is a stunning all-black beauty with a gentle soul to match. She's on the shy side and likes to take her time getting to know people, but once she feels safe, her sweet and affectionate personality truly shines. She does wonderfully with kids and is very patient- she just appreciates a calm approach and a little time to warm up. Bella Noche prefers the company of female cats but can warm up to male cats. She does great with dogs in the foster home and handles them like a pro. Bella Noche is ~7 months old, spayed, up to date on age appropriate shots. All she needs now is a forever home! Bella Noche is litter box trained, has excellent manners, and would thrive in a home looking for a loyal, easygoing companion. With the right introductions, she could settle nicely into a home with friendly pets—or she’d be equally content soaking up all the love as your one-and-only. --- Bella Noche is currently in Houston, Texas, but can be transported to the Northeast, Pacific Northwest, Colorado, or cities along the route.

Meet Sachi! Adoption Application: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ROSE/cat Sachi's story began with hardship- She was found abandoned and sick, struggling to survive on her own. Thanks to the dedication of her rescuers, she received the care and love she needed to heal. Today, she is healthy, thriving, and ready to find the forever home she truly deserves. Sachi doesn't fuss much about anything-she's the kind of kitten who takes life in stride. Whether it's a busy household with children, other pets running around, or a quiet evening curled up on the couch, she's simply happy to be near her people. Her soft purr and relaxed nature make her the prefect addition to almost any family. If you're looking for a calm, sweet kitten who will fit right into your heart and home, Sachi is waiting to meet you! Sachi is ~6 months old, spayed, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, microchipped, and in great health. She does a great job of keeping her litterbox tidy. All she needs now is her forever home! We believe slow introductions to a calm, cat-savvy pup, we think she could learn to love a new dog friend. Sachi does great with other cats, kids, and even dogs in the foster home. Sachi would thrive if adopted with one of her foster siblings. Priority will be given to applicants interested in adopting a pair of kittens or who have patient, playful resident cats or dogs at home.
