Calico kittens & cats in Joplin, Missouri

Hello to all you bipedal folks out there: My name is Polly and I am a 3 to 5 year old female, calico or dilute calico, medium hair cat looking for my furever home and hoomans. All cats are wonderful in their own way, but some are super wonderful and beautiful and stuff. In order to be able to spot the super wonderful, beautiful cats very easily, nature has given them some extra toes: LIKE ME! Yes, that’s where my name came from. We very special kitties are known as Polydactyl (Get it? Polly?) but that’s not the only extras I come with. I am extra friendly and extra likely to go out of my way to come out of my favorite corner to say hello as you go by. I love to be petted on and I love to be talked to. Those are about my two favorite things. When I first came here, some people thought I was a little bit shy, but that’s not really the case. It’s just that sometimes, I like to do my own thing, off by myself. I like other cats, but sometimes I just “want to be alone.” You know, like that lady hooman on the movies. Don’t you get like that on occasion yourself? Besides extra toes, I have an extra cute meow. I use it to get the attention of hoomans when I want some petting or other necessities. So what do you say? I’ve had all my shots, I have been spayed, and I’m ready to be taken to my new furever home. Just fill out an application and come on down to Joplin for a visit. I think you’ll find that I am unique in so many ways that you will want to take me home forever. I look forward to seeing you soon. Love, Polly “ When a man loves cats, I am his friend and comrade, without further introduction.” Mark Twain

Hello Hoomans. Thank you for stopping by my picture! My name is Kiki and I am a 5 to 6 year old calico, domestic shorthair, female cat. Yes, I know what you noticed first; I’m gorgeous, right? That’s what is known as calitude; being gorgeous and not being afraid to admit it. I came to Golden Paws some time ago when my owner passed away and there wasn’t anyone available to keep me. I love attention and being petted on. If there’s someone available to pet on me, or itch my chin, or rub my ears, I’m your girl. I do have an issue with my bladder. My veterinarian had to remove a stone from it, and I need a special food that keeps my bladder in check. The folks here at Golden Paws said that they would send all my special food with my new hoomans, at least as much as they have here on hand. I was adopted out one time, but was brought back because of my bladder issue. As long as I have plenty of water intake and my special food, I don’t think my bladder will be a problem. It will need to be checked on by my new Hoomans from time to time, just to make sure that everything is hunky dory. I also love mice toys, any kind of mice toy. I will play with them all day long if I have the chance. So go ahead and fill out an application and come on down for a meet and greet. I’m sure that once you get acquainted with me, you will fall in love, just like the folks here have done. Seriously, I am a great cat. As we go through life, we all get banged up a little. Tell you what, the folks here have been very good to me, but I need my own forever home and hooman again. You come on down and rescue me, take me to my forever home, be my forever hooman, and in return, I will love you forever and rescue you right back. I hope to see you soon!

Hello folks and a happy meow to you! My name is Fancy and I am a 1 year old female, domestic short hair cat. I was rescued by some nice people and brought to Golden Paws to find my forever home. I have been shy, timid and scared since my arrival at the shelter, although everyone here is very kind to me. I went through some rough times before that, and although I love being with other cats, I am still somewhat leary of Hoomans. For those of you who are not familiar with the domestic short hair, we are a mixture of many breeds. We are very popular worldwide and are generally adaptable, intelligent and relatively low maintenance. We come in many colors and pattern combinations. I happen to be a Calico, or Dilute Calico. We are generally friendly and very good with families, especially children. We also like other animals but, like all cats, we enjoy our independence too. I need a home with Hoomans who have the time and desire to show me the love, patience and understanding that will help me get over any fears from my past. Isn't that what everyone needs though? Anyone going to a new place, surrounded by new people, will need some time to adjust. I have a long life ahead of me and with Hoomans who will give me extra TLC and patience, I will be the best house cat and the best buddy ever. I have been spayed, I've had all my shots, and I'm ready to begin my new adventure. If you're the Hooman I've been looking for, the one who will lead the way on that adventure, and the one that will be my bestie forever, fill out an application and come on down for a visit with me. This is your chance to make a real difference in the life of a little fur person who could use that special person and home to complete her life .And in return, I'll make your life better too. Guaranteed! I look forward to seeing you soon. Love, Fancy “When a man loves cats, I am his friend and comrade without further introduction”. Mark Twain
