Calico kittens & cats in Savannah, Missouri

Briar Rose's Story Beautiful Briar Rose is looking for a new home! This much-loved kitty is back with us after being adopted as a kitten. Her person had a bunch of changes going on, including divorce and a move, and had to part with this sweet baby girl. Her last owner described her as super talkative and so much fun! She loves to be chased and will chase her person as well! Here is her backstory with the Fort Leavenworth Stray Facility prior to her first adoption in March 2025: Sweet little tortie! Came into the shelter in August 2024 so she has grown up a bit since she's been with us. She's been enjoying time playing with other kittens as they come into the shelter, and she loves "escaping" the playroom to investigate the rest of the facility. Featured as the Pet of the Week in the Sept. 23, 2026, issue of the Lamp. (Previously featured as the Pet of the Week in the Sept. 26, 2024, Nov. 21, 2024, and Dec. 12, 2024, issues of the Fort Leavenworth Lamp.
