Bombay kittens & cats in Houston, Texas

READY TO PERK UP YOUR DAY WITH HER LIVELINESS  DOB 4/17/26 Hey there, everyone! I am Java, a gentle, outgoing, and affectionate Bombay mix gal who got my name because my dark coloring resembles coffee and because of my lively personality. I thrive on being held, cuddled, and stroked by all ages of my hooman family. I curl up on Foster Daddy‘s chest while we watch YouTube videos on his phone. When Foster Meowmy opens the door, I scamper up to greet her in hopes that it is time to play or be petted. When she is in bed, I cuddle on top of her wherever I can find a cozy spot. Plus I am mellow enough to play gently with the 5- and 7-year-old kids in the family. My busy foster home includes an adult male cat and a small senior dog, and I get along great with them too. I am so confident, easygoing, and adaptable that I have already had a blast on a family road trip to San Antonio, where I quickly settled into my new accommodations. My feral momma birthed my twin brother Joe and me on an apartment balcony, but -- thank heavens -- Foster Meowmy trapped our momma and brought our little family to the safe haven of her home when I was about two weeks old. About a week later, an orphaned ticked-tabby fella who was a week younger than Joe and me was introduced to our momma, and she lovingly accepted him as one of her own. Suddenly I had a new brother named Mocha! The three of us have so much fun tumbling and pouncing, climbing and wrestling, and when we are exhausted, we collapse in a kitten puddle. Now I am ready to become your affectionate best friend who will provide endless cuddles and playtime antics to brighten my forever home. Although we are available separately, it would be the cat’s meow if Joe or Mocha could be adopted with me. We could be playmates and cuddle buddies while you are at work or on vacation. Remember that there is nothing like a little “java” to perk up your day!  Arrange to meet me today! HOPE ID 26-0529-M052 Java’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 that Java will be this weekend, email us at sfenicle1@gmail.com, and a volunteer will get back to you.

Meet Nibbles—one of the Bellaire Backyard Bumpkittens! I'm a snuggle bunny and calm monkey. Found in a Bellaire backyard during a rainstorm with my siblings, we've happily traded rakes for cat toys, cozy naps, endless food, and lots of love. I adore people and furry friends. I am an expert in blanket biscuits and soothing purrs. I am known for my lap snuggles/naps, but can still hold my own during playtime. I wear the cutest white bib that keeps me clean during mealtime and shine with sophistication during relaxation. And I frequently fall asleep on my foster mom, so happy that my cute little tongue will stick out ;)D. Check out my siblings—Nugget, Beanie, and Pipsqueak! We'd love to be adopted in pairs, or I'd be happy to join a home with another friendly fur-ball. -Reach out ASAP to meet one (or two!) of us. -Visit us at PetSmart (2902 S Shepherd Dr), Sat & Sun, 11:30 a.m.-4:00 p.m.

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.

LOVES TO GIVE FACE KISSES AND SLEEP BETWEEN YOUR LEGS  DOB 9/21/24        Hey there, everyone! Named after Daphne Blake of the Mystery Gang in Scooby Do, I’m Daphne, a sweet, petite, cuddly, and playful Bombay mix gal who enjoys giving face kisses and sleeping between people’s legs as well as playing chase with other kitties. As Foster Meowmy testifies -- I’m the perfect mix of snuggly affection and kinetic energy! I love all animals – dogs and cats – as long as we’ve been properly introduced. I’m initially shy when I first meet people, but then I become very talkative and friendly once we get acquainted. When I’m not running around the house, in my solitary moments I love to perch in the front window so that I can observe people passing before me. Foster Meowmy trapped my pregnant feral momma and brought her to the safe haven of Meowmy’s home, where Momma birthed my sister Velma and me. Unfortunately Momma had ringworm, which she passed onto Velma and me, and it spread to all of the pets and hoomans in the whole house. Since it took months and months for everyone to get clear of the ringworm, Velma and I got a late start getting ready to be adopted. Now I’m ready to bring my beautiful, tiny, and snuggly self to sprinkle my forever family with joy and laughter. Could that be you? Arrange to meet me today! I promise to leave tiny paw prints all over your heart. Although we’re available separately, Velma and I think that it’d be the cat’s meow if we were adopted together. HOPE ID 24-1109-C129 Daphne’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 that Daphne will be this weekend, email us at nancy.e.kline@hotmail.com, and a volunteer will get back to you.

Meet Chester! The adoption application can be found here: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ROSE/Cat --- Chester is a charming gentleman with a big personality and an even bigger heart. If you are looking for a cat who truly adores people, Chester is you guy. He's incredibly affectionate, not shy in the slightest, and will happily soak up every bit of attention you're willing to give. In fact, he insists on it. Chester loves to curl up right on top of you, shower you with little kisses, and be held like a baby-he's all about closeness and connection. In fact, sometimes he's so overwhelmed by his feelings he will give you a little "love nip". It's a cute trait, but can be alarming to a new cat owner who isn't expecting it ;) --- Chester is neutered, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, microchipped, and in great health, despite his FIV+ diagnosis. He does a great job of keeping his litterbox tidy. All he needs now is his forever home! Chester gets along well with other cats and would likely enjoy a feline companion. He hasn't been around dogs or children and due to his "love bites", he'd do best in a home without young kids. If you're ready for a cuddly, affectionate, slightly mischievous best friend, Chester is waiting to meet you! --- *Chester is FIV+ What is FIV? https://www.vet.cornell.edu/departments-centers-and-institutes/cornell-feline-health-center/health-information/feline-health-topics/feline-immunodeficiency-virus-fiv *Chester can safely live with other cats, as the risk of FIV transmission is extremely low, especially in stable, non-aggressive households. Cats with FIV can live long, healthy lives with proper care, including regular annual vet visits. To ensure his continued health, Chester must remain an indoor-only cat. Chester is currently in Houston, Texas but can be transported to the Northeast, the Pacific Northwest, Colorado, or locations along their route. --- ABOUT OUR ADOPTION FEES: Our adoption fees include spay/neuter, vaccinations, microchipping, and transportation costs. Also, when you adopt from ROSES Rescues, you’re doing more than giving your new family member a home. Each adoption fee sponsors 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!

This tiny, fuzzy void kitten is Asteroid Destroyer! TOO LONG, DIDN’T READ - SUMMARY: * Adoption Application: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ROSE/Cat * Our rescue is located in Houston, TX, and we transport our babies to wonderful adopters in the Northeast, Pacific Northwest, and locations along those routes. Transport cost is included in the adoption fee. * Adoption fee (< 6 months old) is $425 --- What can we say about Asteroid Destroyer? He's got a big name for an extremely tiny kitten. At least, we think he's a kitten. He's also part bunny, and has the uncanny ability to charm every single human on the planet. Everyone who meets him immediately falls in love, and you will too! Asteroid Destroyer strikes a balance between playful, mischievous, cuddly, sweet, and sassy. He loves running around the house with a toy in his mouth, growling adorably if you try and take it away. He is by far the tiniest kitten in his foster home, but that doesn't stop him from being right in the middle of the action - he'll wrestle and play with everyone! At the end of a busy day being a kitten, Asteroid Destroyer absolutely loves to sleep in a "cuddle puddle" with a few of his kitten buddies, or snuggle up in bed with his foster mom. Even though he's insanely photogenic with his perfectly round and fuzzy face, shiny black fur, and little bear cub paws... photos just don't do him justice! There's something special about Asteroid Destroyer and we're so excited to find him the perfect family who will love his quirky personality! We just know he's going to bring someone a ton of joy <3 --- Asteroid Destroyer is a very social little guy and will thrive if adopted with one of his foster siblings or to a home with a friendly and playful resident kitty. He's never met a dog, but with his fearless personality we think he'll do just fine with a new, respectful pup sibling (after proper introductions of course). Priority will be given to applicants interested in adopting a pair of kittens, siblings, or who have patient, playful resident cats or dogs at home. Information on why adopting two kittens together is best for their short- and long-term health and behavior can be found here: http://www.kittenlady.org/twokittens --- Asteroid Destroyer is 2.5 months old, neutered, microchipped, and up to date on age-appropriate vaccines. He does a great job of keeping his litterbox tidy... all he needs now is the perfect home! The adoption application can be found here:
