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.

Stevie is about 3 years old and is a very loving sweet girl. She loves to cuddle and sunbathe and would thrive as the only female pet. Due to her being a tortoiseshell calico she comes with some behavioral problems that we believe is because of another female cat. Stevie is as playful as they come but does not require a lot of maintenance.

My name is Patches. I used to have a family. When they got evicted, I got left behind. I didn’t understand what was happening, I just knew the door never opened again😢. I found a boarded-up house nearby and made that my spot. It wasn’t great, but it kept some of the rain and snow off of me. There was a man down the street who started coming by every day❤️. He brought food and talked to me like I mattered. He told me I was pretty. I believed him. He fed me well — probably too well — so yes, I’m a little full figured. I like food. I’m not pretending otherwise. One night something came after me. I don’t know what it was, just that I didn’t win. I lost the sight in one eye💔. I manage fine now. I know my space, I map things out, and I pay attention. When the area I was living in turned into a construction zone, it wasn’t safe anymore. The nice man called Purrfect Haven Cat Rescue and TNR to help me. That’s how I ended up in a loving foster home. I’m around 8–10 years old. Not a kitten. I’m past the climbing-the-curtains stage. I like soft places, steady routines, and people who sit down for a while. I will absolutely come find you for attention. I’ll head-butt your hand. I’ll climb into your lap if you let me. If you stop petting me too soon, I’ll remind you by rubbing my head on you. I don’t need much. A safe place. Regular meals. Someone who’s home enough to notice me. I’ve done the outside thing and I didn't like it. I’m ready to be someone’s inside cat for good. I'm very potty trained and clean. I’ll stick close to you. I’ll sleep near you. I’ll keep you company in a quiet, steady way. That’s it. I’m Patches 🧡

This is our friend, Mister. He’s around 1 1/2 years old and he’s a nice guy, very happy to be pet, and spend time with people… he can take a little time to adjust to a new home, but when we took him home a couple months ago he ended up doing fine after a little bit of hiding at first. We would love to see our foster cat, Mister, go to someone who will show him the love and time he needs… we currently have 2 big dogs and Mister is typically good with them, but he swats with his front paws occasionally, so we need to find him a new home… he was rescued out in downtown canton by my girlfriend Missy, and he’s been thru a lot before she was able to help this little guy. Someone please find it in your heart to help out this little buddy. Thank you for reading and God bless you for looking to adopt a cat!

My daughter got Marcy around 2 years while we were living in Alaska. My husband and I ended up taking her in and moving her to Ohio with us. We had her spayed in Alaska when we moved. She also received a rabies shot for the move last may 2025. Marcy is a very sweet cat and loves cuddles. Unfortunately our grandson is allergic and we are unable to keep her.

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

There are no surprises with our black and white boy Rio; just like his can't-be-missed coat, he has a huge personality, too! This sweet boy loves to help (supervise?) around our facility; he is always nearby to help you with whatever you are doing, or to encourage you to take a break and give him a snuggle or three. He is mischievous and full of fun, but is always happy to spend time cuddling with you! Rio is just over a year old, and has had surgery on his left eye (we aren't sure if he had an old injury or untreated infection, but he is 100% able to find you, whether it's time to have fun or a snuggle!) Rio was too sweet to stay a TNR; we know someone will be able to match the love he has to give! In addition, Rio has also: -Tested negative for Feline Leukemia/FIV; -Is neutered; -Is vaccinated; -Has been treated for fleas and worms; and -Had a negative fecal test. -The balance of his vaccinations are included in our adoption plan. Are you looking for a flashy cat with personality to spare? If you like a cat with a twinkle in his eye, then Rio is your guy! If you would like to set up a meeting with this handsome fella, please fill out an application today. https://www.catsanctuaryashland.org/adoption-application

Since we're celebrating #internationalrescuecatday all week, let's get international, and talk about a big purring machine, Bugatti! Just like his namesake, our Bugatti is sleek, gorgeous, and fun. He is a sweet boy who loves to hang out with you, and loves it even more when you stop and pet him (but he is always the gentleman and waits for you to be ready- no bopping until you drop something here!) He and his sister were left in the Hedstrom parking lot last year, and ever since he has come into the shelter, he has been a favorite of everyone- always happy to see you, and always a lovely companion. At almost 13 pounds, he is solid love, and at just over a year and a half, he is content to sit with you and while away the day. Bugatti has also: -Tested negative for Feline Leukemia/FIV; -Received his vaccinations; -Been neutered; -Been treated for fleas and worms; and -Had a negative fecal test. The balance of his vaccinations are included in our adoption plan. If you are looking for a big ol' lover of a cat, Bugatti is your man!
