Calico kittens & cats in Ocala, Florida

##2594197##

We have a happy update: KitKat is now safe with foster in Orlando but still need adoptive home! URGENT! This cat needs a miracle. Grandma is moving TONIGHT. KitKat cannot go and the family has reached out to us on her behalf. This is a problem that needs solving IMMEDIATELY. Here is an excerpt from their message: "The cat is overweight (don't know her exact weight), 9 years old, female calico. We are located currently in Orlando, Florida but are willing to drive up to wherever is needed to surrender her. We are not able to take her to Arkansas. She also does have some issues controlling her bladder sometimes. We unfortunately do not have the funds to take her to the vet either, and haven't for a while." We do not want this post to generate any negativity towards the family. We all know the feelings this gives us... but none of that will help KitKat. KitKat needs a safe plan B. She will need a vet. She has been on Purina One Indoor and she loves any canned food. She is spayed and chipped. Grandma adopted her 7 years ago. The family has said that OCAS or Pet Alliance can take her in a month, but Grandma never got on waiting list so there is no time, now. Text Aspen 352-843-6858 if you have a solution for KitKat.  ##2049560##

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hello there, I’m Calliope — a lovely senior lady with a heart full of love and a voice to match! I’m a beautiful calico with the softest fur and a sweet, soulful nature. I may be in my golden years, but that just means I’ve had plenty of time to perfect the art of being a loving companion. I’m quite the talker—I enjoy having little chats and will happily purr along as you tell me about your day. My purr is strong and steady, especially when I’m kneading away in a cozy spot or getting some well-deserved attention. Cleanliness is important to me, especially when it comes to my paws. You'll often catch me delicately dipping them in my water bowl to keep them tidy (I have standards, you know!). That said, grooming myself isn’t really my thing anymore—but don’t worry, I absolutely love being brushed. It’s one of my favorite bonding moments, and I’ll reward you with purrs and sweet glances the whole time. If you’re looking for a calm, affectionate companion who loves cuddles, conversation, and being pampered, I might just be the perfect fit. I still have so much love to give—and I’d love to share it with you. Estimated Birthdate: Likes: Lots of love and having clean paws! Dislikes: Grooming myself - I prefer you to brush me! Staff Update: Calliope loves water, batting at it, playing in it, we highly recommend that she has a water fountain as she loves moving water to drink and gets a bit of an attitude if her fountain isn't running!  This gorgeous girl gets along with everyone (people and cats) and will be the first cat to make a new friend.  Although affectionate, she does not like being picked up and held. To schedule a meet/greet with this pawsome kitty, we recommend that you complete a Pre-Adoption Application, which is available here:   https://www.shelteringhands.org/adoptionapplication.  Learn more about Sheltering Hands - visit our website at https://www.shelteringhands.org.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 14, 2025, 1:32 pm

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hello there. I'm Marlow, and I may be small in size, but my heart is overflowing with love. I was discovered at a bustling commercial construction site - a tiny little soul trying to survive among loud machines and towering equipment. The workers worried for me, and out of pure compassion, called Sheltering Hands to give me a chance. From the moment I arrived, they showered me with kindness. And I returned the same. I became a little favorite because I'm gentle, grateful, and oh-so petite. But most of all, because I have so much love to give. Estimated Birthdate: 3/27/2025 Likes: Attention, love, belly rubs. people, and more attention. Dislikes: Big, loud commercial equipment.                                      To schedule a meet/greet with this pawsome kitty, we recommend that you complete a Pre-Adoption Application, which is available here:   https://www.shelteringhands.org/adoptionapplication.  Learn more about Sheltering Hands - visit our website at https://www.shelteringhands.org.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 24, 2025, 9:17 pm

He’s very shy but friendly and likes being petted, healthy appetite , likes outdoors

Fig is the best! Very shy at first, then becomes snuggle buddy. Very quiet, expressive. He is looking for a new home only because his big brother is a jerk and has been picking on Fig. His brother doesn’t get along with other humans, so finding him a new home is unlikely. Fig weighs 18lbs, plays catch and will sleep at your feet.

Sweet playful and snuggly. Likes treats and gets along with everyone.
