Story
DipStick is a bright‑eyed, endlessly chatty two‑year‑old cat with a personality big enough to fill any room he strolls into. Having spent most of his young life outdoors, he’s grown into a confident, savvy explorer who’s just as comfortable lounging inside as he is patrolling the yard. That balance makes him the perfect indoor‑outdoor companion.His name comes from the tiny white tip on his tail—a little “dip” of color that stands out like a badge of honor. And trust him, he wears it proudly. Whether he’s telling you all about his day, chirping at birds, or curling up for a well‑earned nap, DipStick brings joy, energy, and a whole lot of conversation wherever he goes.DipStick's adoption fee is $0, which helps support their medical care and preparation for adoption.

Meet Polyethylene – a reserved but sweet little kitten who’s ready for a fresh start in life. She can be a bit shy at first, but she enjoys being held and cuddled once she feels safe in your arms.Polyethylene got her unique name because she was found with plastic wrapped around her neck. Thankfully, a kind Samaritan discovered her just in time and brought her to us. Once the plastic was removed and she had a good meal in her belly, she quickly showed us just how grateful and loving she truly is.You’d never guess she had such a rough start – Polyethylene’s gentle heart and resilience shine through, and she’s ready to share her love with a family who will give her the safe, happy life she deserves.Polyethylene's adoption fee is $0, which helps support their medical care and preparation for adoption If you are interested in meeting any of our animals, we encourage you to first visit our website and submit an adoption application: https://www.acskc.org/adopt-1Once your adoption application has been approved, we will call you to set up an appointment to meet with the pet!

Story
Etta Mommy came to us from a feral colony, and her gentle, sweet nature made it impossible to send her back. She’s the proud mother of two adorable kittens who arrived just a few days before her, and she’s been showing them all the love and care a mama cat can give.Etta is an older girl, but don’t let her age fool you — she still has plenty of affection, cuddles, and warm companionship to offer. She’s learning what a safe, cozy indoor life can be like, and each day she’s discovering just how wonderful it feels to relax, play, and enjoy life without worry.This sweet mama would thrive in a calm, loving home where she can continue to learn and blossom at her own pace. Etta Mommy is ready to share her heart with someone patient and kind, rewarding them with her soft purrs and gentle affection.Etta Mommy's adoption fee is $25, which helps support their medical care and preparation for adoption If you are interested in meeting any of our animals, we encourage you to first visit our website and submit an adoption application: https://www.acskc.org/adopt-1Once your adoption application has been approved, we will call you to set up an appointment to meet with the pet!

Story
Meet Mint TulipMint Tulip is a 6‑month‑old kitten with a soft heart and a tender spirit. She came to us as part of a group of kittens — all of whom have since been adopted — and now she’s the last little one still waiting for her person. Shelter life is overwhelming for her, and she’s hoping someone patient and kind will help her feel safe again.Mint Tulip is not a “pick me up and cuddle me” kind of cat. Right now, the world feels big and scary, and she needs someone who understands that trust takes time. What she is ready for is a quiet home, a gentle routine, and a person who won’t give up on her. With steady love and consistency, she has every chance to blossom into a confident, comfortable companion.Because of her shyness, Mint Tulip is not a match for homes with children. Another friendly, calm cat in the home would be a wonderful support for her — she finds comfort in feline company and may open up more easily with a buddy by her side.Mint Tulip doesn’t need perfection. She just needs someone willing to show her that she’s safe, wanted, and worth the effort.Mint Tuilp's adoption fee is $0, which helps support their medical care and preparation for adoption If you are interested in meeting any of our animals, we encourage you to first visit our website and submit an adoption application: https://www.acskc.org/adopt-1Once your adoption application has been approved, we will call you to set up an appointment to meet with the pet!
