Story

God's Dogs Rescue plus Kitties does NOT transport any cats or kittens in or out of the state of Texas. It is too stressful for the cats or kittens to be transported long distances, especially when enclosed in a vehicle containing dogs and puppies. Thank you for your understanding. Good with cats/dogs? Unknown. Good with kids? Unknown, but I think she'd be better in a home with no kids. She is pretty chill most of the time. She took to being inside like she belonged there. She is litterbox trained. She's not very playful yet, but lately she's started playing with some toys on her own or playing with the kittens, though she tends to stop if she sees me watching. She's loves to be petted but is also just as happy to sleep somewhere nearby or lay where she can look out the window. She loves to be petted. However, sometimes she'll get irritated by a hand in her face or if you reach over her and she does not like being bent over or having your face near her. Most of the time she'll leave when she gets irritated, but sometimes she bats or snaps(she has only ever done this to my hands), however she is extremely gentle when she does. She doesn't want to hurt you, she just wants you to stop whatever it is she doesn't like. She loves food. When I first saw her she wouldn't come near me, but she became instantly friendly when I started feeding her. Feeding her anything is probably the best way to earn her approval, but she really likes any kind of meaty snacks. We usually use chicken which is good enough, but her absolute favorite thing is brisket. I honestly think her ideal home is with someone with no kids or other pets and who will be happy with a cat that will just hang out nearby and want to be petted sometimes. I'm pretty sure she had the kittens in a bush on the side of the house and then later moved them to the porch, which is when I discovered them.

Story

Henry – The Brave Little Miracle Henry is a precious little boy with a big heart and an incredible story of resilience. In his short life, he has already overcome so much. After being rescued with a serious leg injury, Henry underwent extensive care including water therapy, Manuka honey wrap bandages, and antibiotics to help him heal. Thanks to dedicated treatment and his own determined spirit, Henry has recovered beautifully and now uses his leg like it never happened. He still has a couple of small scabs as the final signs of his healing journey, but the transformation from when he was first rescued to now is truly amazing. Through it all, Henry has remained a sweet, loving boy who enjoys affection and companionship. His strength, gentle nature, and loving personality make him a very special kitten ready to bring joy and gratitude to his forever family. 🐾

Story

Kiki – The Sweet and Shy Beauty Kiki is a beautiful long-haired gray/blue kitten with a gentle spirit and a little bit of sass. She may greet the morning with a tiny hiss and spit — which must be her special love language — because the moment you reach out to pet or hold her, she melts into the affection and enjoys the attention. Kiki is naturally shy and will need a little time to warm up, but with patience she blossoms into a truly wonderful companion. She would do best in a calm, low-energy home where she can feel safe and build trust at her own pace. She absolutely adores her sister, Sie Sie, and does well with other cats. Dogs and fast-moving humans aren’t really her style, so she prefers gentle people who give her space and kindness. Beneath her shy exterior is a truly precious little girl ready to share her quiet love with the right home. 🐾

Story

Hi, my name is Mochiello! 🐱 My story started a little rough. I was found wandering around an apartment complex, dirty, tired, and very hungry. One day I gathered up the courage to walk right up to a kind human’s door and ask for help. Luckily for me, that human opened their heart and let me in. After a warm bath, a full belly, and a safe place to rest, my foster mom discovered I had a wound on my neck from what looked like a bite. I was taken to the vet where I received treatment and antibiotics, and with lots of love and care, I healed up beautifully. The good news? I’m now healthy, neutered, and fully up to date on all my age-appropriate vaccinations, so I’m ready to start my next chapter — finding my forever home. Now that I’m feeling better, my personality is shining through. I’m a sweet and resilient boy who just needed someone to give me a chance. I love having a safe place to relax, good food, and kind humans around me. If you’re looking for a gentle survivor with a big heart and an even bigger appreciation for love and care, I might just be your perfect match. Could you be the one to give me my forever home? Love, Mochiello
