Calico kittens & cats in Hernando, Mississippi

We picked up Margot as a stray kitten around 2 years ago, and she's been a friend to anyone she's met since. She is higher energy and vocal, she loves attention and to play and will let you know. Give her attention and she'll purr like a little engine, or maybe even drool. She generally has her lips pursed, and we love how awkward she acts. While they don't get along (our other cat prefers people over cats), she does, to this day, try to play with and befriend our other cat. She has not extensively been around children, as we do not have any in the home, but family kids have visited several times and she absolutely loves to play with them. She is gentle and playful, but can relax and be sweet.

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. April 29, 2026, 12:06 pm
