Meet Chaps! 🐾🧡 Chaps is a handsome white and brown-gray tabby with the most striking orange-tinged eyes that seem to glow against his soft coat. This sweet boy has a gentle spirit and a quiet nature that makes him truly special. Chaps can be very shy at first and prefers to take his time getting to know new people and surroundings. He’s the kind of cat who appreciates having his space and a calm environment, where he can feel safe and comfortable. Once he settles in, his sweet personality begins to shine through in his own quiet way. Chaps is looking for a peaceful, patient home where he can move at his own pace and be loved for the sensitive, thoughtful kitty he is. A quiet household where he can relax, observe, and slowly build trust would be the perfect match for him.

Meet Thomas James – Your Lovable Lionheart! 🧡 Thomas James is a stunning 5-year-old orange tabby with a heart as golden as his coat. Weighing in at a solid 15 pounds, this big, beautiful boy is all about love, lounging, and cozy companionship. He’s soooo sweet and affectionate—he’ll lean into your touch and give gentle love bites when he’s feeling especially affectionate. One of his favorite pastimes? Perching up high on a cat tree like the king he is, surveying his kingdom—or sprawling out for a good nap in the sun. He’s a chill guy who loves to relax but will happily come down for cuddles and attention. Because he sometimes expresses his affection with enthusiastic love bites, Thomas James would do best in a home without small children. He’s not aggressive—just a big sweetheart who doesn't always know his strength. He’s also FIV positive, which just means he should be kept indoors and live a low-stress lifestyle. FIV+ cats can live long, happy lives—and Thomas James is ready to spend his with you. If you’re looking for a calm, cuddly, and charming cat who brings a warm, regal presence to your home, Thomas James is your guy. Come meet this orange dreamboat—you’ll fall in love instantly. 🧡 You can meet Thomas James and all of his friends at the C.A.R.E. Adoption Center 7 days a week 11-7 at 1328 W.
