Calico kittens & cats in Arlington, Washington

This cat adopted us and wouldn't leave our yard last winter. We tried to find the owner. She was really hungry so we started feeding it outside. It used to visit our cat before he passed away. She was extremely skittish at first and would run away. She started warming up a bit but we thought she was Ferrell or abused. We took her to the vet & found out she's spade but not a chip. Someone owned her at some point. Most likely abused her. We are fostering her until we find a loving owner. She keeps very clean. Great with calm environment with men or women or older quiet teens. Vet Doc confirmed she is approx. 2-1/2 years old-. Don't believe she's had shots. She can light bite at times when she wants attention. or reach out to try snag you for more petting. Indoor/Outdoor for potty with pet door. She is litter box trained. A farm or quiet neighborhood setting good. She's lived outside in past. eats wet tuna pate & dry grain free food. She likes to be brushed out in the morning.

This darling girl loves basking in the sun and will roll around to ask you for pets.

Amy is the most adorable, loveable, dare devil there is! She will run to greet you every time you walk into the room, loves to be held like a baby, purring the second you pick her up, and will hold your face and give you kisses.Amy would need a feline friend to help her be her best self. Amy has a lot of energy and enjoys rough play so she will need a patient friend (preferably one who is bigger then her and can match and perhaps temper her play style to take the crazy down a notch).  Amy is an endlessly curious, fearless girl with the full Tortie-tude energy.Her curiosity got her into a little scrape before she was found and she had a pretty big injury to her back foot. She's all healed up now and has the cutest little three-toed foot, which we think adds to her unique charm but has not slowed her down for one moment. Amy loves to cuddle with her people and her feline friends, has learned to tolerate cat-friendly dogs, and is looking for a home with lots of climbing possibilities and adventures!I've never seen her back down from a challenge or run in fear from anything. She doesn't do anything in life in half measures and is looking for people who will cherish her for her crazy, adventure-loving, affectionate self!IMPORTANT: Please read all below, especially if you live outside of Texas, which is where our rescue is located.Apply to adopt on our website: https://www.charmingpetrescue.org/adoptAll of our animals are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and up to date on shots.ALL of our animals are located in Boerne, TX, but transport after adoption is available to other states for a $300 fee for dogs or an additional fee varying by location for cats.

Because you will be giving one of our many dogs and cats in need a chance for a better future from a city that has an animal crisis.  We are heartbroken each day with the many incredible and loving animals found wandering our streets.  So many have been dumped and cannot find their way home.  Many never even had a home and were born on the streets.  WE gave them a chance.  Every animal deserves a chance. We know if adopted by you they will be loved and cared for. We believe in our local and out of state applicants.  There is a reason we drive to the Pacific Northwest every 2 weeks.  You are worth the drive. We have AMAZING adopters, and we need more like them.  No matter if you live here in Houston, the Pacific Northwest or Canada we welcome you!  Thank you for considering adopting and not shopping.  If we are in Houston, then how can you see our posts?   Spring Branch Rescue has fosters all over the Pacific Northwest allowing us to post in specific cities. Yes, our rescue is in Houston.  Our available animals live with foster families.  This is a win for you as the transition from our home to yours will be a much easier one.  We do have foster homes in your area.  This is why you can see our posts.  Unfortunately Meet & Greets has been cancelled due to Covid Restrictions.  Almost all our animal travel has been adopted.  We have been doing this since 2019 and have been very successful.  Please look at our adopter’s reviews https://greatnonprofits.org/org/spring-branch-rescue ##1657175##
