Not good with kids, Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Hi there, I'm Olivia and I am 3-years-old. I am a darling, brown tabby, girl who came to the shelter with my siblings and a group of my friends. Since then I was adopted out as a single cat and returned. I was very stressed in my previous household to the point where I was uncomfortable with the kids and stopped using the litterbox. Since coming back to TAPS I have reconnected with my human friends, am feeling much better, and have even gone to live in a nice foster home. I still occasionally miss just the edge of the litterbox but am doing much better. I am much more relaxed, playful, and enjoy toys or a cat tree to lay in! I am also cuddly and a BIG fan of food! I am a soft and sweet girl. If you think I could be the girl for you, please fill out an application online and my foster mom would be glad to bring me for a visit and sing my praises!

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

2 years.....not only is that how old Violet recently turned, but that's also approximately how long she has been at TAPS. Violet wants all of your love and attention and is actually very affectionate she just doesn't fully know how to express it. She unfortunately never learned how to properly socialize since she didn't grow up with her littermates so her excitement gets the best of her sometimes and then her teeth get involved with a few love nibbles. She is a staff favorite because of her sassy, playful personality and we believe In the right home where she is the only pet with the right UNDERSTANDING human(s) this sweet baby will thrive and become the cuddly cat we all know her to be! If you have the patience and thick skin to work with Violet, please complete an application online at tapsshelter.org. Adoption Fee: $40Estimated Date of Birth: 8/23/21Intake Reason: transfer from Fulton County Humane, original intake unknownAnimal will be spayed and up to date on vaccines, and microchipped prior to adoption.

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Hi, I'm Tigress, I'm 1 12 yrs old, and I'm what they call a Torbie. That means I look like a tabby cat, but I have apricot coloring also which makes me part Tortoiseshell, too! All that to say is I am gorgeous and very regal looking. My siblings and I were born outside and we didn't have much human contact until we were a few months old so I am slowly coming out of my shell. It has taken months to get me to this point. Somehow, I have decided that I occasionally like to go belly up so my foster mom and dad can rub my belly. Yet, I still will run away if I am not ready to have petting and affection. Just like all of my siblings, I do not want to be alone. I need one of my siblings or another kitten to help comfort me and be my friend. I love treats, toys, and I also come around if I hear rustling to see if it's a treat for me. I am looking for a patient new family to help me with trust and lots of love. If you think I could be the girl for you, please fill out an online application, so we can meet. Let's find out if we can be that perfect fit!

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Hi, my name is Dorothy. I am a gorgeous dilute calico girl who came to TAPS from a distant animal control. I'm a friendly, 5-year-old girl, but you could just call me the hostess with the most-est! I know no stranger; confidently own my surroundings and I love to meet new people! I'm curious about everything and love to see what my human friends are up to and tag along or sit in a window and watch the wildlife, pretending I can catch something. I also like those dangly string toys when people play with me and won't turn my nose up if you want to give me treats, catnip, or wet food! Maybe you are looking for someone who will greet you when you get home? I can totally do that!! If you're looking for a companion who loves to be in your company, keeps you on your toes, and enjoys playing...then I am your girl! Please fill out an online application! I promise not to disappoint when we meet!!

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Hi there, I'm Dawn and I am 3 years old. I am a gorgeous dilute tortoiseshell girl. I came to TAPS harboring a little secret...I was expecting! I have been living with a foster family since! My foster mom has this to say about me: "Dawn came to live with us 12 months ago. She raised 5 sweet baby kittens who have all now been adopted. She loves people, but not other animals. Given enough time, she might get along with another cat, but she does not like dogs. She is a beautiful cat that deserves a loving, patient, quiet home of her own. The family that chooses her should be prepared to buy extra toilet paper. She loves nothing more than toilet paper parties!" If you'd like to meet me, please fill out an online application so my foster mom can make that happen for us!
