Story
Meet Gandalf! Born September, 2025 Gandalf is a happy-go-lucky little boy who loves attention and thrives on human affection. He's a natural lap cat who will climb right into your arms or settle onto your legs the moment you sit down, purring contentedly as he soaks up every bit of love. With his confident and curious personality, Gandalf approaches the world with wide-eyed enthusiasm and a heart full of sweetness. When playtime starts, he turns into a joyful little wrestler, tumbling and sparring with his sisters in the most adorable way. He's playful, spirited, and always ready for fun, but just as quick to return for cuddles when he's done. Gandalf is the perfect blend of affectionate and adventurous — a kitten who will keep you entertained and loved every single day. To pre-off Gandalf complete our adoption application here-https://www.tenderlovingcats.org/adoption-application.html Tender Loving Cats does not adopt our kittens onto the age of 12 weeks old to go home without another kitten or prior to spay/neuter. After the application is approved, you can meet him and his Foster’s home.

Story
Meet Glinda! Born September, 2025 Glinda is a confident little girl with an independent streak that sets her apart from her siblings. She explores boldly, entertains herself easily, and carries herself with the charm of a kitten who knows exactly what she wants. Even with her self-sufficient nature, Glinda never turns down affection — she loves being held, enjoys gentle pets, and is more than happy to settle into your lap when she's ready to rest. Playful and sweet, Glinda strikes the perfect balance between adventurous and cuddly. She'll romp around with toys one moment and curl up for snuggles the next, making her a wonderful companion for someone who loves a kitten with both spirit and softness. Confident , loving, and delightfully independent, Glinda brings joy wherever she goes! To pre-adopt Glinda complete our adaption application here-https://www.tenderlovingcats.org/adoption-application.html Tender Loving Cats does not adapt our kittens under the age of 12 weeks old to go home without another kitten or prior to spay/neuter. After the application is approved, you can meet her in our Foster’s home.

Story
Peach is currently on a big adventure and won’t be cruising into the adoption center for about a week. We don’t know a ton about this traveling buddy just yet, but that’s all part of the fun—we get to learn about them right alongside you! As they make their way here, we’ll share any little tidbits the transport team notices. And once Peach arrives and settles in, we’ll discover even more about their personality, preferences, and all the adorable quirks that make them one-of-a-kind. Keep an eye out for updates—Peach is on the move, and we can’t wait to learn (and share!) more of their story as it unfolds.
