Story
Fee negotiable for good home. Farrah is a sweetie! She deserves more attention, is very lonely. She is a cuddle bunny type. She is super sweet and loving. Still young enough she loves to play. She is very well behaved. Uses scratching post/litterbox, stays off counters, obeys commands. I fostered so she would not be put to sleep by rural small shelter, or eaten by coyotes like some littermates. I am allergic and work 7 days a week. Moving overseas. She deserves better! She needs brushed often to avoid fur matting. She was born outdoors so LOVES being out in my fenced acre, so would be cruel to not let her at least have a outdoor catio patio. Saves litter costs too! Males sometimes aggressive to her. So no young male cats in home please. She needs a rope scratching post She has not had socialization with other people or dogs so may be afraid at first. So Kids, may work ok eventually. Not aggressive ever and ok with vet.

Story
Hello, my name is Puss and I am 11 years old. I have been with my current owner since I was a kitten, I am loving and cuddly when I choose to be, I love to scratch on things (will require a scratching post), and I like to play when I choose to play. I am very picky on my owner and would do best in a home that does not have any other pets. My current owner is having a baby and I am aggressive (hissing, swiping at people i dont like) I am getting better at this, I mainly just hide when there is company over. I pick and choose who I don't like, so a couple of meet and greet will be required! If i like you i, I am super sweet and cuddly and love to play! I will come with all of my belongings as well. I am to be returned to my current owner if things do not work out!

Story
Dexter found his way to my daughter through a friend. Dexter turned up on her back porch soaking wet. My daughter took him in and he quickly became an important part of her family. We believe Dexter is about 7 years old but we don't know for sure. Dexter needs a loving home. He is very friendly, sweet and likes attention. He is a bit large and has a very small voice. He has been living with my daughter, granddaughter and two other cats. Dexter is the dominate cat and he occasionally asserts that with the other two. It's not bad but he wants them to know he's the boss. This is why I say I don't know if he would be good with other cats. He really is fine with the two he lives with now. Unfortunately, my daughter passed away in February and we need new homes for her cats. I do believe Dexter would be fine as an only cat though he seems to enjoy his two companions. If you would like a cat who is a companion Dexter will fill the bill.

Story
Please contact Della @ (kittycityks@aol.com) for more information about this pet. Our adoption center is open both Saturday & Sunday every weekend! Saturday's noon-5pm & Sunday's noon-4pm. This spunky monkey kitten girl is Samantha. Samantha is a bit of a firecracker with loads of energy, fun, and confidence. Samantha is also a great lover girl, who isn’t afraid to ask for snuggles and pets, and who also loves to spoon her foster mom at night when they sleep. She also loves to nap under the covers in bed under and beside her foster mom’s legs, hug her foster mom’s neck from behind (this is the best), she LOVES playing and wrestling with her sister Charlotte and kitty toys, she will never say no to treats and wet kitty food, and she also enjoys when her foster mom’s adult cat boys groom and snuggle with her. Samantha is highly intelligent and intuitive, and excels in everything she does, however, she absolutely despises taking medicines, going to the vet, and receiving shots. She has never been around dogs or children, but will probably be okay, while she will probably need to be adopted into a home with another cat/kitten to meet her social needs. Ultimately, Samantha is ready to bring her lightning bolt of kitten energy into your home and your heart.  This kitty should get along with kids, other cats, and cat-friendly dogs given proper introductions. Samantha was born approximately September 1, 2024, and her adoption fee is $160, or adopt two and the second is one-half price. She is spayed, up-to-date on shots and deworming, has a microchip, and tested negative for feline leukemia virus.  You can visit our adoptable cats and kittens during weekend business hours at our adoption center, address and times above. During the week, all our kitties live in licensed foster homes, and while most do come to the adoption center each weekend, not every kitty attends every weekend. For more information, or to confirm whether a particular cat or kitten will be present that weekend, please email kittycityks@aol.com.  Kitty City Kansas Rescue is a volunteer, non-profit organization.  April 9, 2025, 5:41 pm
