Calico kittens & cats in Athens, Ohio

Hi Everyone, this is Lily. She is almost 4 years old and is an active kitty! She loves to play, stare out windows, and chase after the laser beam. I am moving to Florida, and will not be able to take this precious girl. She’s a wonderful cat and so full of personality. I’m hoping to find her a good home!

Stella is a beautiful female Calico kitten who was surrendered by her owner on July 24, 2025 along with her two sisters (Meeko and RJ) and her brother (Hammy). The kittens were 4-months old at that time. Stella has a black/orange/white short smooth coat in a calico pattern, a long tail, and a classic black/orange Calico face with golden eyes, a wide orange stripe on her muzzle/forehead, and long white whiskers. Stella was spayed on September 23, 2025 and was also given rabies vaccine. She weighed 5 lbs that day. Stella and her siblings dearly love each other, but they are still working on their social skills with regard to their people friends. They have made progress in our shelter since their arrival, but they are not yet ready to be held in your arms or snuggle up on your lap. We believe that they would do much better in a home environment with a family or individual who has the experience/patience to let them acclimate to their new home (realizing they may choose to hide for awhile until you gain their trust). The siblings have been separated into pairs so that they will have a best friend for comfort/security: [Stella & Meeko] and [Hammy & RJ] Stella and her sister Meeko (a beautiful Chocolate Point Siamese kitten) are sharing a cage and are quite compatible. They are being listed as a bonded pair and will be required to be adopted together.

Chip is a cute 2-1/2 year old female Dilute Calico kitty who was surrendered by her family on March 31, 2026 along with her companion (Ursa) who had shared their home. Chip has a white/pale gray/beige short smooth coat in dilute calico pattern, a long gray/beige tail, and an adorable face with dark golden eyes, a pink nose, and long white whiskers. This little sweetheart has a friendly, rather demure, personality. We know that Chip is wondering what on earth happened to have lost the freedom of her home and why she is now in a small cage by herself. Chip had been in her home for two years~ Chip was given vaccinations and Pyrantel dewormer on April 1, 2026. Like most cats, Chip was enamored with the Girl Scout Cookie cardboard box which a group of Girl Scouts donated after their cookie sale was over. Chip loved the cookie box so much that she chose to pose for her Petfinder/Facebook photos in the box (smile). Chip was spayed on April 6, 2026 and was also given rabies vaccine. She is a petite little lady who weighed just 4.9 lbs that day. Chip is ready to find another loving home with someone special who will give her time to acclimate to a new environment.
