Calico kittens & cats in Ashland, Ohio

Meet Markie – The Queen of Disapproval and Cuddles! Have you ever wanted a cat who will adore you and silently judge your every move? Well, Markie is here to fulfill that dream! With her signature disapproving glare, this stunning gray dilute calico is an expert in the art of looking unimpressed—whether you’re serving her dinner (too slow), rearranging furniture (why?), or simply existing in her presence (tsk tsk). But don’t be fooled by her stern expression—underneath that gaze is a total sweetheart! Markie loves attention, enjoys being held, and will happily lean in for pets once she decides you’re worthy. She’s got a soft, plush coat perfect for snuggling, a round full belly that’s just begging for gentle pats, and a quiet but loving personality that will melt your heart. At 10.4 pounds, Markie is a bigger girl, which just means more of her to love! Markie has an estimated DOB of 1/16/2023, putting her just over 2 years old. She’s spayed, tested negative for feline leukemia/FIV, fully vaccinated, flea- and worm-free, and all-around ready to go to her forever home. She seems to get along well with laid-back kitty friends, so she’d make a great addition to a chill feline crew. Markie is waiting for a home where she can be pampered, admired, and occasionally roll her eyes at your life choices. Could it be yours?

Tiny, what a petite and sweet little girl. And so beautiful too. This sweetheart is shy at first but opens up when you spend some time with her. This little girl has been a favorite of mine, she's just a quiet unassuming sweetheart. Very low key too. She'd do best in a quiet home with adults or a family with older children.

Friendly loving cat, declawed on front claws, litter box trained

✨ Meet Bella — A Brave Mama Ready for Her Own Happy Ending ✨ Bella’s story is one of heartbreak, courage, and incredible transformation. This beautiful calico girl gave birth during a rainstorm, tucked into a pile of leaves because she was too afraid to enter the nearby shelter provided for her. By the time Purrfect Haven Cat Rescue and TNR was called to help, only one tiny baby had survived — and Bella was doing everything in her power to keep that little one safe from the cold, the weather, and lurking predators. At first, Bella was labeled as feral, but we quickly learned the truth: she wasn’t wild — she was terrified, exhausted, and fiercely protective of her baby. She was skin and bones, her body too depleted to keep producing enough milk. For the safety of her kitten, the baby had to be moved to an experienced bottle feeder, and Bella’s heart broke. Her confusion showed as a mix of deep affection and sudden aggression. But with time, patience, and gentle care, Bella is healing. A week later, her predictable, loving side is now shining through. She adores other cats and has a nurturing spirit — grooming them, cuddling them, and wanting to care for anyone she thinks needs her. Bella has been fully vetted and is now ready for the one thing she has always tried to give: love, protection, and a forever family. If you’re looking for a sweet, soulful companion with a survivor’s heart and a mama’s tenderness, Bella is waiting for you. 💛🐾

Meet April — A Gentle Heart in Search of Her Forever Home. April’s story is one of quiet transformation. When she first arrived at our sanctuary as a tiny springtime kitten, she was shy and uncertain, unsure of the world around her. But with time, love, and patience, this beautiful girl has blossomed into a sweet, tender companion — now she just needs the right home to complete her journey. April is a soft soul who thrives in the company of other calm, gentle cats. She absolutely adores snuggling with her feline friends, often curling up in a cozy pile for warmth, comfort, and companionship. She feels safest and happiest when she has a calm kitty companion by her side — and for that reason, we would love to see her adopted with a trusted shelter friend she already knows and loves. With people, April is shy at first — but once she trusts you, she enjoys gentle pets, quiet snuggles, and will reward your patience with soft purrs and affection. She isn’t a bold, outgoing cat, but she is incredibly loving in her own peaceful, steady way. Watching her bloom into a confident companion will be one of the most rewarding experiences for her future family. April’s Info: Born approximately 3/1/2024; Sleek black coat; Spayed; Up to date on vaccinations; Tested negative for Feline Leukemia and FIV; Flea-treated, dewormed, and healthy. April will do best in a calm home where she can continue to blossom at her own pace, surrounded by understanding people and maybe even a snuggly feline friend. She’s waited so patiently for someone to see the beauty and love she has to offer. Could that someone be you? Apply to meet April today: https://www.catsanctuaryashland.org/adoption-application

Meet Stretch Stretch is a striking white and gray short-haired boy, born around 8/1/24, with piercing blue eyes and a tall, lanky frame. At nearly 11 pounds, he’s already a big guy, though he’s still on the thin side after fending for himself on the streets. His fur is a little rough from his time outdoors, but with love, care, and stability, we know this handsome fellow will grow into the glorious kitty he was born to be. Despite what he’s been through, Stretch’s spirit is gentle. He is docile, loving, and kind—a sweet soul who just wants to belong. You can see in his eyes how ready he is to finally relax in a home of his own, where he’ll never have to wonder about safety, comfort, or love again. Stretch has been neutered, has tested negative for Feline Leukemia & FIV, received first 2 rounds of vaccinations (final due 9/13), has been treated for fleas & worms, and has a negative fecal test. Stretch is more than ready to trade the hardships of the past for a future full of snuggles, sunny windowsills, and family love. If you’d like to set up a meet and greet with this special boy, please fill out an adoption application today. catsanctuaryashland.org/adoption-application
