Story
Meet Jack Frost  This handsome little guy is about 6½ months old and has already braved more than most kittens ever should. Jack started life outdoors, and thanks to a kind soul who made sure he was neutered (that little ear tip is his badge of honor!), he got his second chance at a warm, safe life. Jack can be a bit shy at first — new people and new places make him pause and assess the situation like the thoughtful gentleman he is. But give him a little patience and a soft voice, and you’ll see the real Jack come out. Once he warms up, he absolutely loves being held and will happily soak up your affection. He’s playful, curious, and has a great time chasing toys and romping around with the other kitties in his foster home. He’d likely enjoy a home with another friendly cat to help him continue building confidence. Jack is neutered, microchipped, up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccines, and current on flea prevention. His adoption fee is $100. Ready to Meet Jack Frost? Start by completing an adoption application at www.rescue330.org. ##2643080##

Story
I rescued Mr. Kitty off the street a year ago during the winter. He was not microchipped and very skinny. He gets along well with most cats but if they aren’t neutered he gets upset. He is vocal and very loving. He loves to jump onto shoulders and walk with you anywhere you go. He gets along with small animals, dogs, and cats. I believe he is over 2 years old. He is also litter box trained and will always ask you when he wants food.

Story
Meet Poppins – The Sweetest Gentleman in Black Poppins is a sleek, one-year-old black cat with a heart as soft as his fur. At first, he might hang back and watch from a safe spot, but it doesn’t take long before he’s flopping onto his back for belly rubs or batting at toys with playful charm. The best part? He never plays rough—Poppins is all about gentle fun and sweet companionship. Once he feels at home, this boy becomes a true lovebug. He’ll crawl all over you, purring away, just to be close. He’s happiest when he’s with his people, whether that means snuggles on the couch, joining in playtime, or politely reminding you it’s snack o’clock. Speaking of—Poppins adores treats, snacks, catnip, and has a special friendship with wet food. Poppins appreciates the company of other cats and would enjoy a feline friend, but it isn’t a must if his humans can give him plenty of love and attention. He’d do best in a calmer household where he can blossom at his own pace, though it doesn’t have to be completely quiet. If you’ve been dreaming of a loyal, loving companion who just wants to be by your side, Poppins is ready to make your home his forever. 💕 Adoption details: 1 year old, neutered, healthy, and patiently waiting for his person.

Story
Meet: Uncle Jim Biscuit; a roughly 2 year old domestic medium-haired cat that would thrive with an experienced cat owner in a hybrid indoor/outdoor environment. He found his way to us late October 2025 and over the following weeks got a full tune up- vet exam with Leukemia/FIV testing (negative/negative) and core vaccinations, fecal sample, de-wormed, flea & tick removal, neutered, and chipped. A regular diet has allowed him to gain 2-3 lbs since transitioning indoor. Uncle Jim is EXTREMELY affectionate. He loves snuggling up with you and will cuddle for hours! Move cautiously and he will also allow you to pick him up. He loves to play and always has an appetite for treats. He will sing to you as you prepare his dinner. He is not the best climber/jumper - much more of a “ground cat” versus “tree cat”. Quite clunky. But so cute. We’ve had zero issues with him scratching our furniture. PLEASE NOTE: While he’s adjusted to our first cat very well and plays often with him, we believe uncle Jim may thrive more in a single cat home. Being an outdoor cat for however long he was, he has a strong habit of marking. This improved immensely when he was neutered but unfortunately he is still marking around our home. While it’s significantly reduced over time and the spots are small, despite our best efforts it is not something we have been successful at correcting and feel he’s missing his outside world. We also have not been successful at trimming his nails. He’s gotten better at letting us manipulate his paws but it’s a very long, slow road ahead. The vet noted he had a slight heart murmur and rated it a “2/6”. ***UNCLE JIM BISCUIT IS WITH HIS FINDERS IN WILLOWICK,OHIO. His potential adopters will be screened by someone from the rescue, after the approval process you will be put in touch with his finders to schedule a meet and greet in order to adopt. While this is a courtesy posting for the finders, any adopter will always be able to reach back out to the finders or rescue member they speak with for any help- including the return of Uncle Jim Biscuit (if unfortunately necessary). His adoption fee is $75. LINK TO ADOPTION APPLICATION: https://form.jotform.com/242326102430137
