Story
Sylvie is a smaller girl. She was born in October 2023. She was a very skittish kitten, and her foster mom kept her a little longer to work on bringing Sylvie out to shine. She is still a bit shy and can get startled easily. She likes love on her terms. She does not like to be pursued, but she will come for love when she is ready. She jumps up on the bed every morning for pets. She loves other cats and likes her foster mom's dog. She is very playful and loves toy mice. She would probably be best with no young children and a kitty sibling or two to play with. She will take some adjustment time, but she is sure to blossom once she is comfortable in a home of her own.

Story
(Special Adoption Fee) Hi, they call me Panther. The reason is rather obvious. I'm a big lazy boy who loves naps, and nice sunny spots to take them in. I have been known to talk a lot every once in a while when I want attention. I like to let you know I'm here and want pets. I am in search of a home where we can have good conversations and play with lots of toys with feathers. I really like to play with feathers but you know feathers require supervision! Those things are fun but they get stuck on my tongue sometimes and I don't want to eat them, I just want to play with them. I get along with others too. I'm pretty chill if you want to know it. So can we take naps together or maybe you have a lap that I can sit on? Are you interested in adopting Panther or another JCAPL pet you have seen?

Story
Oy, I’m Roy, and I’m enjoying the luxurious indoor life. Unlike my namesake (Roy Kent from Ted Lasso!), I am outgoing and friendly. You know we orange kittens are crazily cute. I have tons of kitten energy and love to play. I hope you have lots of toys because I’m a bit of a toy hog! A companion to wrestle with would be great, too! Once I’m all tuckered out and ready to wind down, I do the cutest thing – suck on the tip of my tail like a pacifier! I would love a warm lap where I can curl up, purr, and suck on my tail-“paci” after a long play session. Are you interested in adopting this kitten or another JCAPL pet you have seen?

Story
(Cole has been in foster care with JCAPL since May 2023. He is being sponsored by an anonymous donor to cover a portion of his adoption fee to help him find his forever home). Cole is a beautiful black kitty. He was found at his foster mom's workplace with his sister. He loves his cat tree, and he loves canned food. He likes attention but does not always seek it. He should become more affectionate in a home of his own. Cole gets along with other cats after a patient introduction. He is energetic, sweet, and ready for his forever person. He will definitely blossom in a home of his own. Cole has a sponsor, which means he has a reduced adoption fee. Are you interested in adopting Cole or another JCAPL pet you have seen?
