Story

Meatball is a friendly, playful guy who is about a year and half old. He is Fiv+, but he`s not aggressive, so he is safe to mix with other cats. He is currently in a temporary home with two older cats who are not into playing, much to Meatball`s dismay. If you have a playful kitty who needs a playmate, consider Meatball! He also gets along with small children. He is vaccinated, neutered, and microchipped. He has had flea prevention and dewormer. The adult cat adoption fee is $50. If you are interested in meeting this adorable guy, please complete the cat adoption form and we will set up a time for you to meet him.Application: https://safehomerescue.org/how-to-adopt/cat-adoption-form/

Chanel

Domestic Mediumhair

Female, 1 yr 6 mos

Story

Don`t let Chanel`s fancy name and Turkish Van appearance fool you - her life so far has been far from royalty. She found herself thrown outside in the middle of winter by a human who let her down. She had to learn how to survive on the streets. She became pregnant but luckily ended up in a foster home after a caring neighbor made some calls. She raised 6 beautiful kittens and now she is looking for a home of her own. Chanel still has so much kitten energy and some anxiety-rightfully so. She will need a patient home that will take the time to teach her that hands are not chew toys. Chanel loves lap time and playtime, but because of her life experiences, she can play very rough. Chanel may do ok with another pet after a slow introduction, but she is a dominant kitty. She would do great on her own as well. We are looking for someone to give her a second chance at life. She has been spayed and had preventive dewormer, flea preventive, FVRCP and rabies vaccines, and she is microchipped. If you are interested in meeting this adorable young lady, please complete the cat adoption form on our website https://safehomerescue.org/how-to-adopt/cat-adoption-form/. The adult cat adoption fee is $50.

Iowa Cat wants a real home.Message Agape Fosters page if interested in this big guy.Pappy approx 7 years old is off the mean streets of Waterloo after living off the land for years. He was worn for wear but looks much better now.He’s been fully vetted, incl tested and neutered. He’s rather dog like but doesn’t like dogs. He may do ok with a confident female cat or kittens as he helped take care of his offspring. His 4 kittens were also fixed and adopted out. He’d love a real home or even a foster/temporary home.

Story

Meet Charlie! He is a great companion cat who has proven to be social with other cats, very patient with toddlers, slightly chatty and is looking for his forever home. Charlie has handsome white markings on his face, paws and belly. He spent his first few years as an outdoor cat before he was trapped in Spring 2024. He has been neutered, vetted and had some large canine (coyote?) bite wounds to the face that have recovered fully. Charlie has been house trained and is happy to part of the family or household.
