Story
Back in February of 2021 my girlfriend at the time and I came across a craigslist ad of some kittens that were for free in a neighboring city so we reached out and ended up taking home two from the litter; a boy kitten (Kobain) and a girl kitten (Kehlani). They are brother and sister from the same litter and are extremely bonded and cannot be separated. Everyday they spend much of their time interacting with each other whether it be playfully wrestling, or grooming each other or just simply laying and cuddling next to each other. Kehlani is very sweet and gentle, she's a little bit more shy compared to her adventurous brother but still very cuddly and loves to come hang out especially when just hanging out at home. They're both pretty responsive to their names and love to play. If you're looking for some cats that will cuddle with you and hang out then these are the ones for you.

Kobain is an adventurous and cuddly cat, he loves to hang around and follow you if you're doing stuff around the house. I raised both of them to be pretty gentle and calm cats. They spend most of their time lounging and hanging out. They love to go out onto the deck or balcony for fresh air and sun bathe as well. Kobain is gray and weighs around 20lbs, he's a pretty big boy. They were small kittens around 2021 so they should be 5 years of age.

Story
Kiwi’s birthday is July 29, 2024. She is a tuxedo tabby. She is super sweet and cuddly. She loves to sit in your lap and cuddle. She is very vocal. She talks back to you when you talk to her. She knows her name and will come if called. She comes running to me anytime I crumble up a piece of paper and she wants it. It’s really funny. I give it to her and she carries it off to play with. She loves high fives. I will be sitting in the chair and she will come over to me and raise her paw up in the air at me so I will high five her.

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.

Oaklen is a handsome tabby boy with the sweetest, most affectionate personality.

He is a total cuddle bug and has the cutest way of showing it—Oaklen loves to gently rub his face against yours for extra affection. It is his signature move, and it will melt your heart every time. Oaklen does wonderfully with young kids and gets along great with dogs, making him a perfect fit for a fun, active home. If you are looking for a playful little adventurer who also doubles as a professional snuggler, Oaklen is ready to be your new best friend. 💛

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. Nichole had an unexpected start to life when her mom left her on a back deck, trusting that she’d be kept safe. That trust paid off—Nichole has grown into a sweet, gentle kitten who is now ready for a loving forever home. She has a kind, affectionate personality, does well with dogs, and is both crate trained and litter box trained. Nichole enjoys being near her people and settles in easily, making her a wonderful addition to a calm, loving home. Nichole is ready to trade her rough beginning for a life full of comfort, love, and cuddles. Could she be the perfect little companion you’ve been waiting for? Adoption fee $150
