Story
Duke is looking for their forever home! WHAT MY FOSTER SAYS: Meet Duke – The Lion-Hearted Acrobat with Bunny Ears 🦁🐰 Duke may be small, but don’t tell him that—he’s convinced he’s a mighty lion! He’ll roar (okay, meow) with fierce determination, only to melt your heart moments later with the gentlest little lick to your hand or foot. It’s all part of his master plan to get your attention—and it works every time. This daring kitten is also an aspiring trampoline artist, leaping sky-high for any toy you wave above him. He’s got moves, charm, and those irresistible bunny ears that make him the perfect springtime sweetheart. Bold, bouncy, and full of affection, Duke is ready to pounce his way right into your heart. ATTRIBUTES: Duke has done well with other cats. —------------- Laila’s Legacy Animal Rescue does not guarantee that any cat is housebroken.

Story
Domino is looking for their forever home! WHAT MY FOSTER SAYS: Domino is an absolute sweetheart. She’s a little shy with new people, but her curiosity wins out—especially when her brother, Dune, is by her side. She’ll stick close to your side like a shadow, she just wants you to know she’s always there if you need her (or have a treat you want to drop). Winning her heart is a slow burn, but with some tasty treats and a little patience, she’ll be snuggling for sleepytime cuddles and nudging your hand for head pats in no time. Domino is not bothered by other cats, she’s okay to let them go on their way and knows boundaries. She’s absolutely obsessed with her brother Dune though, they’re best friends for life. She can be a bit skittish around dogs. If you’re looking for a cat who’ll trade affection and snuggles for lots of treats, attention, and patience, Domino is your girl. Apply for her today! ATTRIBUTES: Domino has done well with other cats. —------------- Laila’s Legacy Animal Rescue does not guarantee that any cat is housebroken.

Dapper is looking for their forever home! WHAT MY FOSTER SAYS: Meet Dapper – The Softest Soul in a Bunny Suit 🐰🐾 With the heart of a lamb and the ears of a bunny, Dapper is as charming as his name suggests. This gentle little guy loves being held close and cuddled, melting into your arms like he was made for snuggles. While he enjoys playtime with kittens and humans alike, Dapper is a thoughtful observer – he’ll watch from the sidelines at first, making sure everything feels safe before hopping into the fun. He’s the perfect mix of sweet and shy, with a calm presence that brings a little peace wherever he goes. And did we mention his adorable bunny ears? One look and you’ll be smitten. If you're looking for a tender-hearted companion with a cautious charm and cuddly spirit, Dapper is ready to hop into your heart.

Story
Duchess is looking for their forever home! WHAT MY FOSTER SAYS: Duchess is a regal beauty with a gentle soul and a royal appetite—especially for liquid treats! Once a street-savvy survivor, she’s now embracing the comforts of palace life: regular meals, fresh water, and the soft affection of kind human hands. Though shy at first, Duchess is beginning to bloom under the warmth of human companionship, especially enjoying chin and head scratches from those she's come to trust. Her ideal forever home would be with a gentle female guardian, where she can continue to thrive either as the queen of the castle or alongside a respectful male feline companion. Give her a little time, a lot of love, and the occasional treat, and Duchess will reward you with her quiet loyalty and elegant presence. ATTRIBUTES: Duchess does well with other cats. —------------- Laila’s Legacy Animal Rescue does not guarantee that any cat is housebroken.

Story
We rarely see a silver British Shorthair and Petra is fabulous. Petra was abandoned in Kuwait and is best as an only cat. She will coexist with another cat but will likely not bond. Petra is very loving but will take time to trust again. Petra is estimated to be about 4 years old. Our Kuwait kitties cost more because of their transport. * Our kitties are: Spayed/neutered (or provided a spay/neuter voucher for kittens too small for surgery), tested for Feline Leukemia and Feline Aids, up-to-date on vaccines (rabies vaccine when age appropriate and distemper series), treated for parasites, and have microchips. Tiny kittens go in pairs unless there's a companion animal already in the household. Our adoption fees are low. Most are $150 although some very desirable kitties may be more. For a pair, we reduce the adoption fee slightly.February 23, 2025, 11:22 am
