Story
Adama is the sweet, sensitive soul of the bunch. In a new or noisy environment, he can be a little shy at first, quietly taking everything in with those big, thoughtful eyes. But give him a bit of time and patience, and once he’s comfortable, his true personality shines through. When Adama loosens up, he’s a total cuddler and an expert purrer, happily soaking up affection—especially head rubs, which he absolutely adores. He’s also very playful, with a special love for climbing and chasing his ribbon wand like it’s the most important mission of the day.The way Adama looks at you when you walk into the room will instantly melt your heart, and his adorable, funny little meows when he sees you make it impossible not to smile. If you’re looking for a gentle, playful companion who bonds deeply and rewards patience with endless love, Adama is ready to be your new best friend.

Story
Octavia is a delightful little kitten who is looking for a home! As far as kittens go, she's pretty standard: she loves to play, cuddle, eat, and sleep. She's fostered with other animals and does well and she's been around kids, too. She's affectionate and easy going, but has plenty of time for play, too (see her here: https://youtu.be/2vFkgsjvxt0) Requires another cat in the home: Yes, kittens always do better with a friend!

Sheba is a confident, curious little lady with a wonderful mix of independence and affection.

Always the first to investigate something new, Sheba approaches the world with fearless confidence and a sense of adventure. Nothing seems to scare her, and she takes it all in stride with grace and charm. Despite her independent streak, Sheba is a true sweetheart at heart. She bonds on her own terms, making her affection feel extra special when she chooses you. If you’re looking for a bold, self-assured kitten with a loving soul, Sheba is ready to make herself right at home. Requires another cat in the home: Yes, kittens always do better with a friend!

Good with dogs, Declawed, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Dolly's Legacy was contacted by a shelter in Central Nebraska that they had taken in a cat whose microchip registered back to our rescue. Pickles was surrendered to the shelter along with his best gal pal, Haze. The shelter allowed us to bring Pickles who had been adopted in 2015 back into our rescue along with his companion. We are now searching for a committed forever home for Haze & Pickles together. They are bonded and do everything together. They sleep, eat, play, cuddle, and get into mischief as a dynamic duo. Pickles is declawed. They have excellent litterbox manners and mostly love to nap the day away by a window, basking in the sun. Pickles is more social with people & outgoing, while Haze is the shy girl who lets him take the lead. Pickles is cat selective, he likes to think he has to protect his girl. They must be adopted as a pair. Haze is a Silver-Swirled Tabby/Domestic Shorthair who was born approximately 5-19-19 and weighs 8 lbs. Pickles is a Brown Tabby/Domestic Shorthair who was born approximately 10-30-15 and weighs 14 lbs. They are spayed/neutered, microchipped, vaccinated. Pickles is front declawed. Adoption fee is $125 as a pair to help offset the many expenses we have for vetting costs. We rely strictly on adoption fees and donations to continue to save the lives of orphaned & abandoned pets; 100% goes towards their care.  ***If you are serious about adopting, you must first complete and submit an application on our website. Our Adoption Team will respond via email from DollysLegacyAdoptions@gmail.com once you have completed an application. If a pet is still listed, it is not yet adopted as we update daily. All information regarding adoption policies are on our website***
