Calico kittens & cats in Lake Stevens, Washington

Meet Marguerite de Ville, a beautiful Tortoiseshell cat who is full of life and has plenty of love to give to a lucky family. She is a true gem of Purrfect Pals and is looking for her forever home. Marguerite is a lovely lady with a lot of character. Marguerite is also quite independent and enjoys her alone time, but she will never say no to a cuddle session with her favorite humans. Marguerite de Ville is positive for FIV which means her immune system is a bit fragile and she could transmit it to other cats so she need to remain an indoor only kitty for her health. As a part of Purrfect Pals, Marguerite has been altered, microchipped, and is up to date on all of her vaccinations. She has also been tested for any viral infections and is in excellent health. This furball of love is ready to find her forever home, and if you are interested in adopting her, please complete a pre-adoption application to get the process started.

Mallie is a sweet, senior kitty who really wants attention. She wants to be pet (but not on her hips). She can be playful even in her senior years! My mother-in-law was her person - a veterinarian for over 50 years - but we had to move her to assisted care where she is unable to keep her cats. I tried to keep Mallie, but she is unable to integrate with our own 3 cats. She needs much more attention that I can give her. She desperately wants to interact. She snuck out of our guest room and into my daughter's noisy room of girls when they were having a sleepover. She just wanted girl time! She has been declawed, but watch out if you pet her or brush her somewhere she doesn't like, she might bite, but we are working through that! She does shed...but if she gets a proper grooming and you keep her brushed, she is just SO sweet. She's 16-17 years old, it's amazing how youthful she still seems. She really just needs some love and attention in her final years.

Kayleigh arrived at my home when she was around 10 months old. She's been a house cat for her entire life. At around 12 years old, she's calm and enjoys her routines in a 600 sq ft condo. She likes to go out on the balcony especially with human company. She also meets me at my work computer at home. When I come back from an errand, she's often near the door upon my return and will promptly plop down on the shipping paper on the floor for a belly rub. Not a lap-cat, she sits next to me on the couch. She’s always been the only pet in the house. One eye has leaked some fluid which has clouded her eye a bit. She shows no issues with it, and the Vet has told me to watch it for changes.

This kitty was abandoned in our cul de sac when we moved in nearly 10 years ago. She moved from CA to CT with us. Then from CT to WA with us. After 3 months in Washington, she is not adjusting to our life here and cries often to go outside, but we live in a small apartment. She is sweet and needs lots of cuddles and scritches.

Raffia is a 6-year-old calico with a big personality, a loving heart, and a story of incredible resilience. After being abandoned by the people she trusted, Raffia was left to survive on her own through the harsh Houston weather and elements. Thankfully, she was eventually brought to safety, where she received the care she desperately needed. She arrived with a few medical concerns that had to be addressed, but after months of treatment, monitoring, and lots of TLC, Raffia is doing great and is finally ready to find the forever home she has waited so long for. One of the biggest obstacles in her adoption journey is her heart condition, which requires a once-daily medication that costs approximately $50 per month. Despite being stable, healthy, and living a happy life, many potential adopters have passed her by because of her diagnosis. It breaks our hearts because Raffia has so much love, companionship, and joy to offer the right family. Raffia is a sweet, affectionate, and delightfully sassy girl. She loves rubbing against your legs, following you around the house, and charming everyone she meets. Food is one of her favorite things in life, and shes never shy about reminding you when its mealtime. After spending the last 15 months in boarding while waiting for her chance at a home, were helping her shed a few extra pounds and enjoy more exercise now that she has more space to move around. Like many confident cats, Raffia knows exactly what she likes. She enjoys affection and loves being pet, but she is not a fan of being picked up and carried around. Shell also let you know when shes had enough attention and appreciates people who respect her boundaries. Raffia would likely thrive as the only cat in the home where she can soak up all the love and attention for herself. She may do well with respectful dogs, as shes a confident and self-assured cat. We would recommend a home without young children and feel she would do best with older, cat-savvy kids (14+) or adults who understand feline body language and respect her space. After everything shes been through, Raffia deserves a family willing to look beyond a diagnosis and see the wonderful cat she truly is. Shes affectionate, entertaining, full of personality, and more than ready to spend the rest of her life being loved.
