Story
Bix was rescued from the streets starving and scared with the rest of his siblings. Now healthy and happy they are ready to find their furever homes. Bix is a snuggly and affectionate, very playful kitten! He can play for hours with all of his siblings but also he really loves his humans. He starts his motor purring as soon as you give him any attention! Bix would love to be adopted with one of his siblings as they are great playmates and companions. If you already have a young, playful kitty at home then he can bond with your kitty too. Bix would do well in almost any home. He gets along with all other kitties and would be great in a home with gentle, loving children. Bix has not been around dogs yet but I think he would get along fine with a cat friendly dog and the proper introduction. He will brighten any home with lots of love and his silly kitten antics. Please contact the foster at annmariehair@gmail.com

Story
Royal is a loving, sweet, and affectionate boy with a gentle personality—and he’s absolutely gorgeous, with his fluffy white coat and stunning light blue eyes. He’s a total cuddle bug who adores attention and never turns down pets. Royal will need to be adopted with one of his foster siblings or into a home that already has a young, friendly cat he can bond with. He’s very confident and outgoing with people he knows well, but he can be a bit shy when meeting new folks for the first time. You’re invited to schedule a meet-and-greet with this handsome boy to see if he might be the perfect kitty companion for your home. Please contact the foster at kittyLINQ@gmail.com

Good with cats, House-trained,
Story
Ollie has a bonded brother, Benjamin. Please see additional information on my page. We are looking to rehome them as a bonded pair. We love them both very much but we have a baby on the way, and (2) other cats that they don't get along with very well. We adopted both of them when they were kittens. They just turned (2) years old. They play/fight with eachother and do a good job of keeping themselves entertained. I believe that Benjamin and Ollie would do best in a home where they are the only pets. Ollie also loves to play, but she's got a funny, sassy personality. She is a lap cat at heart and loves if you spend a lot of time on the couch, desk, or bed. She loves to sleep on your bed. She enjoys pets/love and being brushed. She will find the most cushiony, comfortable spot in the house and make it her own. She is very confident and friendly once you get to know her. She will love the person who feeds her wet food, and oftentimes beg for attention.

Story
Benjamin has a bonded sister, Ollie. Please see additional information on my page. We are looking to rehome them as a bonded pair. We love them both very much but we have a baby on the way, and (2) other cats that they don't get along with very well. We adopted both of them when they were kittens. They just turned (2) years old. They play/fight with eachother and do a good job of keeping themselves entertained. I believe that Benjamin and Ollie would do best in a home where they are the only pets. Benjamin loves to play. Anything with feathers or strings, he will chase it. He also loves cuddles more than any cat that i've known. (we used to foster a lot of cats) He will approach you after he eats dinner and purr on your lap until he falls asleep. He loves cuddling under blankets. He will meow when he's hungry, and he doesn't like being locked out of rooms in the house. But he doesn't meow at the locked doors for long; he gives up pretty quick.

Story
Maisy is a very vocal and loving cat, she loves to walk up to you and express herself with head butts, and brushing herself on you. She loves to sleep on paper and plastic bags and when extremely happy you can hear her purr from across the room. She does well with other cats as she lives with 2 more right now but can be a little territorial sometimes. Nonetheless if you’re looking for a cat that will love to be around you she is the one.
