Story
Selkie is a sweet, adorable little kitten that’s always ready to cuddle and play! She loves gently taking your hand in her paws to lick you over and over, and loves to cuddle next to you in bed. She adores playing with feather-and-string toys, and is happy following you around in your home! Her fur is so soft as well, making her very fun to pet! Selkie will be fully vetted, once she's spayed on 2/26/2026. Selkie is being fostered in Golden, Colorado- available to meet! Red Fern Animal Rescue offers a two week foster to adopt trial in your home before finalizing the adoption to ensure the animal is the right fit for you, everyone in the home, human & animal, and vice versa. Red Fern Animal Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non-profit foster-based animal rescue in Denver that saves animals from abandonment and neglect in South Texas for new lives in Colorado. We primarily rescue dogs off the streets and from kill shelters in San Antonio. ##2668817##

Story
Vecina ~ 1 year old spayed female, $250 Vecina is a stunning black-and-white medium-haired beauty with a confident personality and a strong sense of self. She knows exactly how she likes to be pet — and when — and isn’t shy about communicating her boundaries. Because Vecina can be a bit temperamental if her signals are missed, she’s best suited for experienced cat owners who understand and respect feline body language. A home without small children will help set her up for success.   Vecina would love to be the queen of her castle. Dogs are not a good fit for her, and while she may be able to live with a calm, respectful cat, any feline companion would need a slow, thoughtful introduction.   Don’t let her independence fool you — Vecina has a playful side and loves interactive playtime! She sometimes doesn’t realize her own strength when she gets excited, so structured play and an experienced handler will help her channel that energy in a positive way.   In the right home, Vecina will thrive with someone who appreciates her independence, elegance, playful spirit, and one-of-a-kind charm.   Head on over to the NoCo Cat Cafe in Loveland to meet her! ##2644633##

Story
Moira ~ 1 year old spayed female, $250. Moira is a beautiful girl who has officially clocked out of motherhood and is now accepting applications for a life of comfort, cuddles, and complete adoration. After lovingly raising her kittens, this sweet girl is more than ready to be someone’s spoiled baby. Moira is incredibly affectionate and lives for attention. She’s the kind of cat who melts into pets, follows you around for love, and rewards affection with her signature elevator butt—a guaranteed crowd-pleaser and clear sign you’re doing everything right. Give your chest a little pat and she'll happily climb up into your waiting embrace from the sweetest hugs.  Gentle, loving, and people-oriented, Moira would thrive in a home where she can soak up attention, nap in cozy spots, and finally enjoy the luxury she deserves. Although she's okay with other cats, she requires a slow introduction and doesn't want to have to fight for your affection.  If you’re looking for a cat who will adore you with every fiber of her being, Moria is ready to take her place as your pampered princess. You can meet her at the NoCo Cat Cafe in Loveland during their regular business hours! ##2622357##

Story
Poppy ~ 2 year old spayed female, $150. Poppy is a beautiful 2-year-old black kitty with a heart just as big as her bright, curious eyes. She’s incredibly lovable and super friendly with her people — the kind of cat who will happily climb right into your lap and settle in for a cozy cuddle session. If you’re looking for a devoted companion who wants to be close to you, Poppy is your girl! She absolutely adores human attention and isn’t shy about asking for it. Whether you’re watching TV, reading a book, or working from home, Poppy will be right there, purring contentedly and soaking up all the love. However, she'd rather be the only cat in your home (and heart). Sharing is NOT caring as far as Poppy's concerned.    Apply at cokittycoalition.com to meet her in  Loveland!  ##2649956##
