Story
Yeti is a handsome 6-year old male kitty who was brought to the HSOV on March 11, 2026 by a Good Samaritan who found him on Florence Street in Belpre Ohio. Yeti was not wearing a collar, and he was not microchipped. Yeti has a snow white short-haired coat, a long tail, and an adorable face with golden eyes, a pink nose, and long white whiskers. Yeti was given vaccinations and Pyrantel dewormer on March 12, 2026. He weighed 9.1 lbs that day. Yeti was given booster vaccines on March 31, 2026. This sweet boy has a quiet, easygoing personality and loves attention. Yeti was examined by one of our local veterinarians on March 24th and was diagnosed as being diabetic, so he is being listed as a ‘Special Needs Kitty’ for that reason. Yeti has been given daily insulin injections and is doing very well thanks to his veterinarian who has been monitoring dosages (and the excellent care from our HSOV Feline Kennel Techs). Yeti is currently enjoying a triple-decker cat tower in the lobby of our shelter. He is ready to find a fabulous home with an individual or family who is experienced in caring for a diabetic kitty. Yeti was already neutered when he entered our shelter, so he could leave our shelter immediately with an approved HSOV adoption application.

Story
Grady is a handsome 14-year old male kitty who was surrendered by his owner on April 29, 2026. This senior gentleman has a gray short smooth coat, a long darker gray tail, and an adorable face with golden eyes, a gray velvet nose, and long white whiskers. Grady has a quiet, rather shy, personality. He loves to snuggle up beneath his blankets for a sense of security. Grady does not get along with other cats, and he would do best in a quiet home without dogs since they tend to stress him out too much. Grady weighs 9 lbs. Grady has already been neutered. He is also front-paw declawed, so he would need to be an exclusive indoor-only kitty.

Story
Rice Crispies is a beautiful 8-week old female Tortoiseshell kitten who was brought to the HSOV on January 13, 2026 by a Good Samaritan who found her on State Route 676 in the Marietta Ohio area. This little sweetheart has a dark brown/black short-haired coat with cream/orange markings, a long tail, and an adorable kitten face with golden eyes, a black velvet nose, and long black whiskers. Rice Crispies was listed as a Special Needs Kitten when she arrived at HSOV since her left hind leg was broken with bone protruding through the skin. She was examined by one of our wonderful local veterinarians who gave us hope that her leg could be saved. Rice Crispies weighed 2 lbs when she arrived on January 13th. Rice Crispies was given vaccinations on January 20, 2026 along with Albon & Pyrantel wormer and antibiotics, She was given booster vaccines on February 3rd and February 17th 2026. Fortunately for Rice Crispies, one of our compassionate HSOV feline kennel techs took her home as a medical foster in early March 2026. Rice Crispies' medical condition steadily improved, and she began walking/bearing weight on her left hind leg. Rice Crispies was officially adopted by her foster mother on August 2nd 2026 which was the best outcome for this little dollbaby.

Story
Quiche is a beautiful female kitten who was brought to the HSOV on May 12th 2026 along with her mother (Tart) and her two brothers (Pot Pie and Shepherds Pie). Unfortunately the individual(s) who left this little family and entrusted them to our care did not provide any information about them. Quiche, Pot Pie and Shepherds Pie were tiny 6- week old babies at that time. Their mother Tart was a beautiful gray tabby with a sweet, super-friendly personality, and she was a wonderful mother to her three kittens. The kittens were separated from their mother after they were fully weaned. Quiche and her brothers have remained together in a double-wide cage, and they have never been separated. Quiche has a brown tabby short-haired coat, a long ringed tail, and an adorable kitten face with golden eyes, a brown velvet nose, a dusting of white on her muzzle, and long white whiskers. Quiche was given vaccinations and Pyrantel wormer on May 19th 2026, and she was given booster vaccines on June 3rd and June 27th 2026. Quiche weighed 2.2 lbs on June 27th and is the smallest of her siblings. This little lovebug is the ultimate 'playgirl' and takes her playtime seriously. Quiche was so intently chasing a tiny (toy) mouse around their double-wide cage during one of her photo sessions and couldn't be bothered to look at the camera (smile). Quiche is a social butterfly with a fun-loving, outgoing personality and loves to engage with people and her brothers. We've also included a few of Quiche's baby pictures which were taken during the month of May 2026. Quiche will be spayed in the near future and will soon be ready to find a fabulous home (preferably with a playmate). Quiche was spayed on August 3, 2026 and was also given rabies vaccine. She weighed 3.7 lbs that day.

Unfortunately the individual(s) who left this little family and entrusted them to our care did not provide any information about them.

Their mother Tart was a beautiful gray tabby with a sweet, super-friendly personality, and she was a wonderful mother to her three kittens. The kittens were separated from their mother after they were fully weaned. Shepherds Pie and his brother and sister have remained together in a double-wide cage, and they have never been separated. Shepherds Pie has a brown/black tabby short-haired coat, a long ringed tail, and a beautiful triangular-shaped face with golden eyes which seem to be enhanced with white eyeliner, a brown velvet nose, and long white whiskers. Shepherds Pie was given vaccinations and Pyrantel wormer on May 19th 2026, and he was given booster vaccines on June 3rd and June 27th 2026. Shepherds Pie weighed 2.8 lbs on June 27th and is the largest of his siblings. Shepherds Pie is the 'dark tall and handsome' sibling (smile). This guy has everything going for him (good lucks, great personality, and a playboy). Shepherds Pie is a social butterfly who loves to have a good time. We've also included a few of Shepherd Pie's baby pictures which were taken during the month of May 2026. Shepherds Pie will be neutered in the near future and will soon be ready to find his dream home. Naturally we'd love to see him adopted with one of his siblings since they have never been separated.

Story
Ghibli is a lovely 2-year old female kitty who was brought to the HSOV on November 24, 2025 by Good Samaritans who had found her alongside the road on County House Lane in the Marietta Ohio. This little dollbaby had several strikes against her when she entered our shelter since she was very sick, and she was also very pregnant. One of our compassionate HSOV kennel techs (Madison Lee) took Ghibli home to foster and gave her the best possible care ... But none of Ghibli's newborn kittens survived. Ghibli has a brown tabby short smooth coat, a long ringed tail, and a beautiful face with pale green eyes, a dusting of white on her muzzle, and extra-long white whiskers This adorable kitty has the sweetest, most lovable disposition, and she loves everyone (other cats as well as her people friends). Ghibli was given vaccinations on November 25th 2026 and was given booster vaccines on December 11th 2025. She has also been given pyrantel wormer. Ghibli was spayed after the loss of her babies, and she is ready to find a fabulous home. Ghibli is currently enjoying free-roaming privileges in The Jungle Room (where most of our adoptable cats are housed). This little princess is the 'hostess with the mostest' when visitors and staff come into the room (smile). Ghibli has her own private suite with a window on the outside world where she enjoys bird watching and keeps an eye on the weather. Happy Update: Ghibli was adopted on March 13, 2026. Ghibli was returned to HSOV this afternoon (April 12, 2026) through no fault of her own, so another lucky individual or family will have the opportunity to adopt this sweet girl. Update 5/29/2026: Ghibli was adopted late in the afternoon on May 29, 2026. Unfortunately, Ghibli was returned by her adoptive family on July 8th 2026 because the resident cat was not getting along with Ghibli. So this sweet girl is once again looking for the perfect home.
