Calico kittens & cats in Washington

Cloie loves to sleep on my lap while I'm watching TV. She likes to have her head petted with your feet. Comes when you call her name. Greets you at the door when you come home.

***NOTE: This pet is currently at the shelter in Republic, WA, and can be delivered to an approved adopter on our 5/2/26 adopted pet transport to Monroe, WA to begin a 30-day trial placement – part of our distance adoption program.*** Considering adopting? The first step is to complete our online Adoption Application at http://forgetmenotshelter.org/application Please do not call the shelter; do the application first. Poor Kalispell has not had an easy time of it since arriving at the shelter back in August 2025. Just a couple of weeks after she arrived as a stray, she gave birth to a litter of kittens, which meant she (and they) had to wait until the kittens were weaned before any of them could be listed for adoption. During this time, Kalispell was an excellent mother - perhaps a bit too good, as she did her best to shun attentions from the shelter staff and volunteers, preferring to keep them away from her babies (and of course, we HAD to socialize and handle the little ones, leading to much frustration for Kalispell). Just when Kalispell's kittens were adopted and we thought she, too, would be ready to head home - she contracted a calicivirus infection requiring a fairly lengthy quarantine period, with little human contact daily (to help prevent the spread of infection). She has now fully cleared her calici infection, but during the past couple of months, has grown depressed, antisocial, and slightly obese. She is now allowed to interact with other cats in a healthy-cat communal Meow Manor room, and gets many more human visits for snuggles and attention, but thus far has not perked up or shown much interest in interactions with any species. Kalispell needs a calm and loving home with an understanding family who will help her gradually lose weight, while learning all about the love of humans and fun to be had as a family pet. With your help, she can recover her broken spirit and find joy in life again! She's still a young cat, with an estimated birth date of 8/1/24, and we all want to see her blossom and live a long and happy life in an adoptive home. All pets arrive spayed/neutered, dewormed, microchipped and vaccinated. Adoption fee for Kalispell is a suggested minimum of $50 (more gratefully accepted). All pets are placed with a 30-day money-back trial period, to give pet and family enough time to discover any unknown allergies or other conflicts. Can't come to Republic? Don't let that stop you! We have monthly transports to the Seattle area, delivering adopted pets to their new owners. If you can add a little to your donation to help us cover our volunteer driver's expenses, that would be great!

Meet Dixie! Dixie is a shy kitty who loves butt scratches, crunchy treats, and burrowing under the blankets.

We received this cat from a friend of ours. She came from a home with other cats and dogs, but because this was a new place, we know that it was going to take time for her to adjust. It’s been over 2 months now and she is not getting along with our other pets at all. She will only eat wet food. She is an absolutely sweetheart and deserves a good home. She would do best by herself. Looking for a home for someone that has had cats before and is looking for another one. She is 5 years old, will be 6 at the end of March. Be prepared to find her hiding for the first week or so. Oh! And she is litter box trained. There would be more pictures of Phoebe, but she is always hiding under the couch so I can’t take other pictures.

Abilene is the kind of young cat that makes your heart ache in the gentlest way. At eight months old, she’s shy when meeting new people and cautious with new cats at first. She likes to take her time, sitting back and watching everything with her big, thoughtful eyes before deciding it’s safe. She doesn’t rush into new situations… she tiptoes into them. Watch her YouTube video now https://youtu.be/4bC-8_NEjGU?si=YL3j080KH00foKSw And there is something so incredibly sweet about that. Abilene isn’t loud or demanding. She’s soft. She’s gentle. She’s the quiet little girl in the room who just wants to feel safe. But once she does? Oh, she blossoms. With other cats, she may be shy in the beginning, but once she gets to know them, she truly loves having kitty friends. She finds comfort in them and enjoys their company in the sweetest, most peaceful way. A calm, friendly feline sibling would likely help her confidence grow even more. And when playtime starts? It’s like watching the sunshine peek through the clouds. The shy girl disappears and suddenly she’s chasing toys, pouncing, batting at anything that moves. She plays with her whole heart. In those moments, you see the happy, playful cat she’s meant to be. It’s beautiful to watch her forget her worries and just be a cat. Abilene would thrive in a patient, loving home — somewhere calm where she can settle in at her own pace. She doesn’t need perfection. She doesn’t need excitement. She just needs someone gentle. Someone who understands that shy kitties aren’t broken — they’re just tender. The best part about a young cat like Abilene is the bond you’ll build. When a shy girl chooses you, it means everything. Every small step forward feels like the biggest victory. Every moment of trust feels earned and precious. She isn’t the bold kitty who runs up to everyone. She’s the one who will quietly steal your heart. Abilene is waiting for someone to see how special she is. Someone who will give her the time to bloom into the confident, playful sweetheart she already is on the inside. If you have a soft spot for the shy ones… Abilene just might be your girl.

Why adopt from Three Little Pitties? The stray and animal overpopulation in the Greater Houston area is the highest in the nation. Statistics show that there are over 1 million homeless animals in this region alone. Three Little Pitties Rescue is a nonprofit dog and cat rescue that partners with the community to make a difference. Our mission is to reduce the homeless pet population through community outreach, free spay and neuter services, and saving all breeds of dogs and cats from the streets or animal shelters that oftentimes have no other option but to euthanize animals for space. This kitty you’ve found online is lucky to be in our program, and even luckier to have you notice it! Three Little Pitties Rescue (3LP) wants to set you and your new family member up for success! In addition to a fully vetted furbaby you also receive other additional perks such as a code for a free bag of cat litter AND a code for 50% off a 2nd bag of litter from Catalyst Pet, coupons for a fun visit to Petco, and support through our Facebook Adopters group where you can connect with thousands of other adopters, 3LP volunteers, fosters and staff. We seek to adopt to families who understand that these are rescues and will require continued efforts but are well on their way to being the best kitties that they can be! We ask that you give them time (can take weeks to months) to decompress in their new home, do slow introductions to other pets and let their true personalities have a chance to come through.  We celebrated our 7 year anniversary this year! Through the combined efforts of all of our hardworking staff and volunteers, we have placed over 16,000 very lucky dogs and cats into amazing homes! By adopting from us, you save TWO lives! The pet you adopt, and you create an opportunity for another animal to be saved in that spot. Together, we can be heroes.

Meet Wobbles 💫 Wobbles is an almost 8 month old kitten with severe cerebellar hypoplasia, which means she’s wonderfully wobbly. She falls over often and her head bobs when she eats, but she gets to her food and water, uses the litter box perfectly, and can make her way across a room on her own. When she’s calm, she does great. When she’s startled, her legs move faster than her balance can keep up. She was found as a stray who couldn’t climb porch steps, and thankfully made her way into foster care before winter. She is spayed, FIV/FELV negative, vaccinated for rabies, and finished her FELV/FVRCP series. Wobbles was very nervous at first, but she has blossomed in a quiet home. She now walks over for attention and enjoys pets once she feels safe. She may hiss at new people, but it’s just fear, never aggression. She gives gentle play swats and tiny love nibbles, often followed by sweet licks. She loves cave beds, small scratching posts for balance, and Churu or wet food served in a bowl or on a spoon. Because of her special needs, Wobbles will need a calm, quiet home with no children and very gentle pets, if any. Her steps may wobble, but her heart is steady and full of love. 💛 She is located in Yakima, WA but can be transported to Western WA.
