Calico kittens & cats in Grenada, Mississippi

Born to a stray mother at a local apartment complex, this beautiful kitten spent the first part of her life learning to be cautious of the world around her. To give her the chance at a better future, she was safely trapped and brought into foster care, where she has been learning that people bring food, comfort, and love instead of fear. She has come a long way, but she's still a little shy and will need a family that understands she may take some time to fully trust her new surroundings. Patience, gentle encouragement, and a predictable routine will help her blossom into the wonderful companion she's meant to be. Once she feels comfortable, you'll see her playful kitten side emerge and watch her confidence grow a little more every day. Because loud, unpredictable environments can be overwhelming for her, she would likely do best in a home without small children. If you're willing to give a shy kitten the time she needs, you'll be rewarded with the joy of watching her discover what it truly means to be loved.August 16, 2026, 4:59 pm

Teresa is a gentle 7-year-old cat whose world changed when her owner developed dementia and was no longer able to care for her. Having spent her life as an only pet, Teresa is understandably overwhelmed by this sudden transition and needs time to feel safe again. She is very shy at first and may lash out when she feels insecure, but this behavior comes from fear—not from a lack of sweetness. Teresa will need a patient adopter who can give her the 2–3 weeks (or more) she needs to decompress and adjust to her new surroundings. A quiet, predictable home without children is ideal, where she won’t feel overwhelmed by noise or activity. While she was previously an only cat, she seems to tolerate other calm cats if given proper introductions and space. With time, consistency, and gentle care, Teresa has the potential to form a strong bond with her new person. She is looking for someone who understands that trust takes time—and who is willing to give her the chance to feel safe, secure, and loved again. August 16, 2026, 4:59 pm
