LIKES TO BE HELD TO YOUR CHEST WITH HER PAWS OVER YOUR SHOULDERS DOB 4/13/25 Hey there, everyone! I’m Pluto, a sweet, loving, and very playful Bombay mix gal with copper-penny eyes and a sleek, shiny black-patent leather coat who can be a little shy at times. I have a little ritual every morning in that I come to Foster Meowmy for love and cuddles. Although a lot of my siblings like to be held tummy-up like a baby, I prefer for Foster Meowmy to hold me to her chest with my paws over her shoulder. And whereas my siblings seem to love being held endlessly, I start nibbling on Foster Meowmy if she holds me too long! After my feral momma birthed Karma, Jupiter, Opal, and me outside of Foster Meowmy’s house, she moved us to inside a neighbor’s car (through the open window, I might add). Then Meowmy moved us to a box on her porch, but when Momma saw some neighbors pick us up, she moved us 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!! She gathered up both of our stowaway litters and carefully placed us in boxes on her porch so that we could safely nurse. Our mommas continued to move us multiple times, and Foster Meowmy always managed to find us and put us back in our weaning boxes. Finally, when we were five weeks old and could eat on our own, Foster Meowmy brought us all inside to the safe haven of her home where she could care for all of us. She even was the perfect feline Florence Nightingale when she administered antibiotic ointment to some of our crusty eyes. Now that we’re fat and sassy, you can imagine the kitten mayhem that goes on inside our big foster bathroom! We tumble and pounce, climb and wrestle, and when we’re exhausted, we collapse in a kitten puddle. We’ve all got a little mischief in our genes because we love to escape the foster bathroom, but I’m usually the mastermind who comes up with the most ingenious way to escape our foster bathroom and lead my siblings behind me. And once I am loose in the house, I’m very good at hiding so Foster Meowmy can’t return me to the bathroom. I love Foster Meowmy and am so grateful that she gave me a chance at the fabulous indoor life of a pampered pet. Now I’m ready to bring my loving, cuddly demeanor to my forever family. Arrange to meet me today, and Foster Meowmy will show you how I like to be held to her chest so I can look over her shoulder. If you’re looking for a pair of kittens, please consider adopting me with one of the other seven #car-stowaways. We think it’d be the cat’s meow if we could be adopted together so we could be playmates and cuddle buddies while you’re at work or on vacation.

TUGS ON YOUR HEARTSTRINGS DOB 6/15/22 Meet Taco! This beautiful black kitty was found with a rumbling tummy outside a taco truck — so naturally, her name is Taco! Now safe and cozy in her foster home, Taco is living her best life and enjoying all the good things: soft blankets, chin scratches, and sunny windowsills. Taco is a gentle soul with a sweet personality. She gets along with both cats and dogs, but like any lady with standards, she may need a little time to settle into a new place. Once she does, she’ll reward you with purrs, head boops, and quiet companionship. If you're looking for a classy little foodie with a big heart, Taco might be the perfect match! HOPE ID 24-0309-G058 Taco is currently in the Houston, Texas area but can be transported to this location upon adoption.

VELCRO KITTY WHO LOVES TO CUDDLE DOB 4/1/25 Hey there, everyone! I’m Onyx, a sweet, loving, and very playful Bombay mix fella with copper-penny eyes and a sleek, shiny black-patent leather coat. Bombays are often called Velcro cats because we like to stick so close to our hoomans, and I am always delighted to spend time cuddling with Foster Meowmy any chance I can grab. You see, I have to share her time and attention with my three littermates as well as another litter of four kittens. Here’s the story: My feral momma birthed Obsidian, Jasper, Topaz, and me underneath the seat of an old car parked in a used-car business . Foster Meowmy’s finding us when we were only about three weeks old might never have happened if she hadn’t been trying to rescue the other set of kittens whom another feral momma had birthed outside of Foster Meowmy’s house. The other momma had moved her litter from Meowmy’s yard to inside her neighbor’s car (through the open window, I might add) and ultimately a few doors down to the used-car business. Imagine Meowmy’s surprise when she found not only the kittens she’d been tracking under the driver’s seat but also my litter under the passenger’s seat!! She gathered up both of our "stowaway" litters and carefully placed us in boxes on her porch so that we could safely nurse. Our mommas continued to move us multiple times, and Foster Meowmy always managed to find us and put us back in our weaning boxes. Finally, when we were seven weeks old and could eat on our own, Foster Meowmy brought us all inside to the safe haven of her home where she could care for all of us. She even was the perfect feline Florence Nightingale when she administered antibiotic ointment to some of our crusty eyes. Now that we’re fat and sassy, you can imagine the kitten mayhem that goes on inside our big foster bathroom! All eight of us tumble and pounce, climb and wrestle, and when we’re exhausted, we collapse in a kitten puddle. I love to sleep in the bathroom sink because it’s my favorite “bed” when I need a little “time out” from the kitten frenzy. We’ve all got a little mischief in our genes because we love to escape the foster bathroom so we can play with the resident two-year-old cat and explore Foster Meowmy's bedroom. I love Foster Meowmy and am so grateful that she gave me a chance at the fabulous indoor life of a pampered pet. Now I’m ready to bring my stunning good looks and affectionate cuddling to my forever family. Could that be you? Arrange to meet me today, and if you’re looking for a pair of kittens, please consider adopting me with one of the other seven #car-stowaways. We think it’d be the cat’s meow if we could be adopted together so we could be playmates and cuddle buddies while you’re at work or on vacation.

Alakay has been with me since he was a kitten and is now 5 years old. I adopted him during a very transitional time in my life, and he’s been a steady, comforting presence ever since. Alakay is gentle, observant, and affectionate in his own way. He enjoys calm environments, thrives on consistency, and does best with regular companionship. He’s well adjusted, litter trained, and accustomed to living indoors. As he’s grown, it’s become clear he would benefit from a home where he can receive more daily interaction and attention. He’s very expressive and enjoys communicating with his people, especially when he wants attention or has an opinion. I’m looking for a stable, loving home where Alakay can thrive, ideally with someone who values a peaceful environment and has time to engage with him regularly. This decision was made thoughtfully and with his long term well being in mind.

I’m looking to rehome a male cat who is approximately 3–4 years old. My former roommate disappeared and never returned, leaving him behind. Unfortunately, he does not get along with my cat, so he would do best in a home without other pets. He is very vocal and has a strong personality. He is not a cuddler and doesn’t enjoy being held at first, but once he warms up, he will seek out pets and attention. He enjoys window watching and observing his surroundings. He prefers dry food only and does not like wet food, including tuna for some odd reason. He is currently an indoor/outdoor cat but was indoor-only for about two years and could adjust back to that lifestyle. If outdoor access is planned, he should remain indoors for at least three months after adoption so he can acclimate to his new home. He is microchipped, and I will transfer all information once the adoption is finalized. Please feel free to reach out with any questions.

Meet Meli! Meli is a gentle and careful cat who appreciates a soft, quiet and warm home. He loves pets on his head, chin, and jaw. When he warms up to you he will plop himself on top of you when you’re watching a show or relaxing and has the sweetest purrs and grunts of appreciation. He has a difficult time with loud noises, sudden movements, and anything that may trap him (eg walking down a hallway when he’s there). Definitely needs a home that is softer, attentive of him, and lets him do his own thing sometimes. He is a vocal lad and will meow for snacks and purr for pets. He gets the zoomies occasionally and mostly at night time, needs a few litter boxes in different areas of the house, and loves specific treats. Also loves scratch posts (doesn’t tear up our carpet or cloth items thankfully but loves to claw). He will let you hold him/pick him up once he is familiar with you (and will jump when he doesn’t want to be held). He is around 4 years old.
