Story
Meet Huxley & Kellog – The Perfect Pair of Opposites! ?? These two handsome boys are the best of friends and balance each other beautifully. Kellog is the affectionate social butterfly — a total sweetheart who loves to be near his humans. He’s the first to greet you, happily soaks up pets, and even plays fetch! Huxley, on the other hand, is the quieter, more thoughtful half of the duo. He takes a little time to feel comfortable, but once he does, he shows his love in the sweetest ways — with slow blinks, gentle nudges, and a loud, happy purr that tells you he’s content. He relies on Kellog’s confident energy and enjoys the company of other friendly cats. They would do well in a loving home with patience to let these two bloom. Once they open up, they are truly the sweetest and most affectionate boys — the kind whose love feels extra special because it’s earned. The reward is absolutely worth the wait. Together, they make the perfect team — playful, loving, and deeply bonded. They bring out the best in each other and are looking for a forever home where they can stay side by side. If you’ve been dreaming of a pair of loving companions who will fill your home with warmth, purrs, and personality, Huxley and Kellog are waiting to meet you! ? Hux and Kellog are FIV/ FELV negative, vaccinated, dewormed, neutered and microchipped. To inquiry more about them, email us at info@littlebeanshoperescue.org or apply here: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/LBHR/Cat They are located in Miami, but transportation can be arranged. Transportation is included in the adoption fee.

Story
Meet Dior, a 4-year-old medium-haired tortie with a personality as fabulous as her name. 💅🐾 Dior is extremely social with her people and loves being right in the middle of whatever you’re doing. She talks, chirps, purrs, headbutts, rubs against your legs, snuggles, and plays with joyful enthusiasm. If attention were a sport, Dior would be an Olympic champion. She’s also a fierce hunter, whether the prey is a stuffed toy at the end of a wand or a digital mouse on a screen. Dior is an accomplished player of the Mouse for Cats app and takes her gaming very seriously. When she’s not hunting or chatting, she’s happily curled up near her favorite humans soaking up affection. Food is another one of Dior’s great passions. This girl can EAT and gets especially excited when canned food appears on the menu. She also enjoys being brushed, which helps keep her beautiful coat in top shape since she can be prone to matting around her belly and tail. Dior recently had 25 teeth removed, and it’s believed she may have stomatitis, a condition that is often resolved once most or all of the teeth are removed. She’s already feeling much better and living her best life, but she will need a follow-up dental exam with her adopter’s vet in 3–6 months and may eventually need her remaining teeth removed. Because of this, Dior is looking for an adopter who is committed to keeping her comfortable and pain-free for the long run. Aside from this dental history, she’s a happy, healthy, vibrant girl. We don’t know Dior’s history with other cats or dogs, but she’s doing great as an only pet, soaking up all the love for herself. She would also do well with older, calm kids who appreciate a chatty, playful companion. Dior’s adoption fee ($125) includes: • Spay • Dewormer • FeLV testing • Microchip • Core vaccines • A free 30-day subscription to Petcademy (24/7 cat behavior support!) • A free exam at a ChewyVet clinic + a $50 Chewy gift card • A goodie bag to get you started If you’re looking for a lively, affectionate cat who will keep you entertained with conversation, playtime, and lots of love, Dior is ready to take center stage in your home. 🖤🧡

Story
Double the calico, double the charm — meet Brooke and Enchilada, a delightfully mismatched duo who found each other and decided life is simply better as a pair. 🧡🖤🤍 Though they aren’t sisters by birth, they’re absolutely sisters by choice. These two are rarely spotted apart, whether they’re curled up in a cozy cuddle pile or turning your living room into their personal playground. Brooke, at just 5 months old, is pure kitten energy wrapped in calico flair. She pounces, wrestles, zooms, and repeats — with Enchilada as her favorite (and very patient) playmate. She loves hard and plays even harder, and once she warms up, she becomes a full-on affection magnet. Expect her to climb into your lap, rub all over your face, and demand your attention like it’s her full-time job. She even has a favorite toy she’ll toss, chase, and occasionally play fetch with like a tiny, chaotic athlete. Enchilada, just over a year old, is the quieter half of this dynamic duo. Rescued as a stray, she’s been learning that humans are actually quite lovely… especially the ones holding squeeze treats. She’s still on the shy side and will need a patient, cat-savvy home that understands her gentle pace. But give her time, and she’ll begin to seek out affection in her own sweet, understated way. Watching her blossom is the kind of slow magic that makes it all worthwhile. Both girls are big fans of Delectables squeeze treats (their love language, truly) and enjoy chasing wand toys together like a synchronized calico storm. Because of Enchilada’s sensitive nature, they would do best in a calm, predictable home without kids or dogs. They do, however, enjoy the company of other cats. Their future family should be prepared to give them time to settle in — especially Enchilada — and we strongly recommend following our guide to winning over shy cats to help her feel safe and secure: https://www.denverkittens.org/post/how-to-win-over-a-shy-cat Together, Brooke and Enchilada are a perfect balance of playful chaos and quiet companionship — a bonded pair ready to fill your home with both energy and heart. Their combined adoption fee ($275) includes: • Spay • Dewormer • FeLV testing • Microchip • Core vaccines • A free 30-day subscription to Petcademy (24/7 cat behavior support!) • A free exam at a ChewyVet clinic + a $50 Chewy gift card • A “go home” bag of goodies If you’ve got a soft spot for a good love story and the patience to let it unfold, Brooke and Enchilada are ready to write their next chapter — together, of course. 💕

Story
Welcome to your fancy era, starring Johnny — a dashing 3-year-old grey tuxedo who looks like he’s permanently dressed for a black-tie event… but would much rather spend it curled up in your lap. 🖤🤍 Johnny is the definition of easygoing charm. He settled into his foster home in just a few hours, immediately making himself available for what he does best: snuggling, lounging, and accepting admiration. He’s not shy in the slightest and will happily wander over to anyone willing to offer pets, leaning in like, “yes, this is correct, please continue.” This boy is a certified lap cat. If you sit, he sits. If you relax, he relaxes harder. He’s mellow, affectionate, and perfectly content being your cozy sidekick for movie nights, work-from-home days, or quiet evenings in. That said, Johnny does have a little spark of playful energy, especially in the early evening when he’s in the mood for some light entertainment. Think a few rounds of wand toy action, followed by an immediate return to his true calling: professional cuddler. He does great with kids and would be a wonderful addition to a family looking for a calm, loving companion. We don’t know his history with other cats or dogs, but his relaxed, social nature suggests he may adjust well with a proper introduction. In short? Johnny is pure perfection in a tuxedo — equal parts affectionate, adaptable, and effortlessly cool. Johnny’s adoption fee ($125) includes: • Neuter • Dewormer • FeLV testing • Microchip • Core vaccines • A free 30-day subscription to Petcademy (24/7 cat behavior support!) • A free exam at a ChewyVet clinic + a $50 Chewy gift card If you’re looking for a low-maintenance best friend who doubles as a living, purring throw blanket, Johnny is ready to move in and steal your favorite seat (and your heart).
