Story
​Fuzzy started his life outdoors as a feral cat, but a little time inside completely changed his world—and his heart! While staying indoors waiting for his neuter surgery, Fuzzy decided that the domestic life is definitely the life for him. He has completely transformed into the biggest lover you will ever meet.​Don't let his rough-and-tumble past fool you; this beautiful boy just wants to be part of the family. He is the ultimate cuddle companion who craves human affection.​His absolute favorite things include:​* Being held like a baby​* Getting endless head scratches and pets* ​Soaking up all the love you have to give​Fuzzy is a truly stunning cat with a heart of gold to match his beautiful looks. He has so much love to give and would make a wonderful, affectionate addition to a quiet, loving home.​If you are looking for a gentle, affectionate companion who will appreciate every ounce of love you give him, Fuzzy is your boy!I am willing to transport Fuzzy up to 100 miles for gas $$.

Jarrell is an adorable 2½-month-old black Domestic Shorthair kitten weighing around 3 pounds. Full of curiosity and kitten energy, he's always ready to chase a toy, explore his surroundings, and turn just about anything into a fun game. This handsome little guy gets along well with other cats and children, making him a wonderful addition to many families. While he's still unsure about dogs, with slow and proper introductions, he may adjust well to a canine friend. Jarrell is also litter box trained, so he's off to a great start in his indoor life. When playtime is over, Jarrell is happy to settle in for some attention before he's off on his next kitten adventure. His playful spirit and sweet personality make him a joy to have around. If you're looking for a fun-loving kitten who will keep you smiling and fill your home with purrs, toys, and endless entertainment, Jarrell is ready to find his forever family! He will be available for adoption after his vet appointment July 24th, 2026.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.
