Calico kittens & cats in Oak Ridge, Tennessee

Meet this sweet little kitten with a gentle heart! She may be a bit shy when meeting new people, but once she feels safe, her playful personality begins to shine. She loves chasing toys, exploring her surroundings, and then settling in for plenty of pets. The moment you start scratching her head or rubbing her cheeks, she'll reward you with an endless, soothing purr. With a little patience and a lot of love, she'll become a loyal, affectionate companion who will happily curl up by your side. If you're looking for a kitten whose trust blossoms into a lifetime of love, she might just be your perfect match.

At 12 years young, Marilyn Monroe is living proof that love, joy, and sweetness don't fade with age-they just get stronger. This little lady may have been through a lot, but you'd never know it from the way she greets the world: with soft meows, gentle affection, and a heart that seems to love everyone she meets. Marilyn has no teeth, a bit of arthritis in her front legs (which gives her the most adorable "T-Rex arms" as she hobbles over to you), and some ongoing medical needs-including a special diet and monitoring for cystitis and a lung nodule. But here's the important part: she doesn't let any of that define her. She is truly one of the happiest, most loving cats you will ever meet. She will talk to you for attention, toddle her way over, and melt right into your arms. She absolutely adores her people-whether she's curled up in her cozy cat bed or snuggled in yours, she just wants to be close. And while spa days aren't her favorite, she sweetly tolerates brushing because she knows it makes her feel good. Thanks to FFF, Marilyn's adopter won't have to worry about the financial side of her care-all of her vetting and special food will be covered for the rest of her life. What she needs is someone willing to open their heart to a hospice/senior kitty and give her the love-filled home she so deeply deserves. Everyone who meets Marilyn Monroe falls head over heels-and it's easy to see why. She's not just a cat... she's a once-in-a-lifetime kind of soul. If you've ever thought about making a difference for a senior cat, Marilyn is waiting to meet you.

Meet Circe, a beautiful tortie girl who lives up to her mysterious name! She'll charm her way around your legs with loving rubs, but she's still learning to fully trust. With a little patience, this gentle girl is sure to blossom into your best friend.

Norma Jean's mom had to move into assisted living and could no longer care for her, so at five years old, this girl's whole world just changed. She doesn't quite understand why she's here, but she's handling it with the same sweetness that made everyone at the assisted living facility adore her. Norma Jean is thirteen pounds of soft, dense fur - seriously, she feels like a bunny. She had an enucleation before coming to FFF, so she's a confident one-eyed girl who hasn't let it slow her down one bit. She greets every person who walks into a room like they're the best thing that's ever happened to her. She's a head-butter and a scratch-seeker, the type who'll back her butt right up to your hand when she wants attention. She's still working out where cats and dogs fit into her new life. She's a little hissy with cats and unsure about dogs, though she's shown no signs of aggression toward either - she just needs some time and a patient household to find her footing again. Norma Jean spent five years being someone's whole heart. She's ready to be that again.

Uniqua is an absolute doll! She's very friendly and wants hands all over her, but she won't sit still for photos... or snuggles. Her foster momma has been trying to give her lap cat lessons but she's slow to catch on. Uniqua comes running as soon as she walks in the door and swishes back and forth while she pets all over her. She's very much like a kitten in the way she plays and how she doesn't stay still unless she's asleep!

Sunshine Sunflower spent all fourteen years of her life as a community cat, keeping watch over a local business like it was her job. Then the business changed hands, and the new owners didn't want her around. Just like that, the only life she'd ever known was gone. Now Sunshine Sunflower is learning what it means to be an indoor cat, and she's doing it the only way she knows how: carefully. She startles easily. Loud noises and sudden movements aren't things she has much practice with. But give her a slow hand and a little patience, and she'll accept gentle pats and lean into the attention like she's been waiting for someone to offer it. Fourteen years on the street will do that to a cat. It doesn't mean the softness isn't in there. It means it took longer to get to. Sunshine Sunflower isn't asking for much. A quiet home. Someone willing to let her come around in her own time. A soft place to land after a lifetime of hard ground.
