Story
Meet Kevin, a six-month-old orange tabby with eyes that perfectly match his gorgeous orange coat. He came to us as a stray, but you would never guess it based on his incredible personality. He was a little unsure the first day in his foster home, but once he realized he was safe, his true self came shining through — and what a sweetheart he is! He really is a “Kevin”…but not like Kevin McCallister — because this Kevin definitely does not like being home alone. He’s a true companion who wants to be wherever you are. Whether you’re lounging on the couch, moving around the house, or settling in for the night, Kevin is right there, ready to hang out and soak up the love. He enjoys being picked up, happily cuddles in close, and has a wonderful purr that lets you know just how content he is. He loves to play, is always up for a tasty bite of chicken, and has already claimed his favorite cozy spot on the couch. Kevin absolutely loves other cats so he must be adopted to a home with his foster sister, Carmen (brown & white tabby), or with another young kitty. He is a little apprehensive around his foster’s dog, but he’s also very curious and interested in her. We believe with a little time and patience, he’ll adjust. From stray beginnings to a certified cuddle bug, Kevin is ready to find a furever home where he’ll never have to be alone again. His adoption fee is $275 and Kevin is vaccinated, FIV/FELV negative, microchipped, and neutered. If you're interested in this little cutie, please fill out an application at https://form.jotform.com/201805462692153. For questions, email info@happilyfureverafter.org.

Story
Meet Carmen, a five-month-old bundle of sweetness wrapped up in the cutest little package. She started her journey as a stray, but you would never know it from her incredibly affectionate and trusting nature. From the moment she walked into her foster home, she made herself right at home. She was a sweetheart from day one and has been soaking up love ever since. She’s the kind of kitten who will happily curl up and cuddle anywhere you choose to sit — couch, bed, chair…if you’re there, she’s there. And when she starts purring? It’s like a car without a muffler — loud, proud, and absolutely adorable! Carmen greets you the second you walk into the room, ready to shower you with affection. She loves to play and is incredibly agile, showing off her impressive kitten acrobatics during playtime. Whether she’s chasing toys, zooming around, or snuggling in close, she brings constant joy and warmth. This sweet girl truly loves everyone she meets — she’s wonderful with kids, great with other cats, and is perfectly fine with dogs. Her easygoing, social personality makes her a fantastic fit for a variety of loving homes. Because Carmen is an energetic kitten, she must be adopted into a home with another young kitty to play, bond, and grow up with. She thrives on companionship and will do best with a feline friend by her side. Her adoption fee is $275 and Carmen is vaccinated, FIV/FELV negative, microchipped, and spayed. If you're interested in this little cutie, please fill out an application at https://form.jotform.com/201805462692153. For questions, email info@happilyfureverafter.org.

My name's Sandi and I'm an absolute princess! I like attention when I'm in the mood for it, but otherwise like to do my own thing. I love to play with toys and get my fur brushed. Scratches above my tail are my favorite and sometimes I'll even talk with you!

I'm Sasha and I'm looking for a quiet home with patient people. I'm very shy at first, but once I'm comfortable, I'll gladly approach you for attention, but especially to play! I LOVE toys and like to carry them around in my mouth. I don't like being held, but I still have a lot of love to give!
