Story
Khajiit is a long hair, tortoiseshell kitty just under two years of age. She is a CH cat (Cerebral Hypoplasia) aka a wobbly cat! Her condition is moderate. She can walk, run, eat, play and use the litterbox on her own like a normal cat, but she requires some special care. She is unable to jump up on most things and when you play you have to be careful she won't run into things in her excitement. And excited she is! She loves to play and loves to interact with other cats. She can be nervous and shy for a long time and would do well in a home without kids, dogs, or a lot of chaos. She is in good health and is updated on all her shots.

Story
Chihiro was rescued from an outdoor double litter. She was born on June 1 2023. She is sweet and silly. She does not like being picked up, but if you’re sitting down she will absolutely bother you for snuggles and pets. She loves snuggling on the couch. Chihiro is bonded with her sister Satsuki who is also up for adoption on this site. We would prefer they be adopted together.

Story
CC is a very sweet and loving cat. I had adopted her as a kitten and she is my shadow. She also is vocal with little meows when she wants you to know something. Especially if the food bowl is empty! She has a great sense if humor, gets along with most cats and has no issues with our two large dogs. She will actually sleep near them at times. She does have two cats in the house that she is not getting along with and it’s stressing the other out. This is the only reason I’m looking for a loving home for her. I prefer to adopt her out with her sister (Cindy Clawford-calico short hair) because I brought them both home at the same time and Cindy is also attacking the other two. I think they are just backing each other up. However, I will separate if it needed to ensure they are loved and in a good home!

Story
Cindy Clawford is a very loving calico female I adopted with another kitten (CC) from the shelter. Cindy is independent and curious. She loves to snuggle (on her own time), but if you’re laying down and she can, she will come give you kisses and snuggle up with you. She’s funny and marches to the beat of her own drum. I’m only rehoming due to issues with two others in the house and the stress caused. I would prefer to have her in the same home with her sister, but if it’s not possible, I’ll just be happy if she’s loved and in a safe home.

Story
Taylor was hit by a car as a very young kitten and lost his leg, but he doesn’t let that hold him back! He runs, jumps, climbs and plays like any other cat, and even uses his missing leg to his advantage as he skids around corners.   Taylor is great with dogs of all sizes.  He is extremely friendly with people     He’d love to have another playful cat (one who enjoys a bit of pouncing and rough and tumble play) in his forever home    *Taylor is neutered, FeLV/FIV tested, vaccinated and micro chipped. * Male - 4 years old * The amputation does not cause him to have any special needs  *  He has been diagnosed with crystals in his urine and needs to be on prescription food for the rest of his life (Purina UR).  The prescription food (approximately $90 per month) is needed to prevent a urinary blockage. * Adopters must live within 100 miles of Florence, KY * Our adoption application can be found on our website, www.pawprintsnky.comMarch 16, 2026, 12:18 am
