Story
Tucker is a 15‑year‑old orange domestic shorthair with a sweet, gentle personality and a lot of love left to give. He was deeply loved by his owner, Sandi, who sadly passed away, and Tucker is now looking for a new forever home where he can feel safe and cherished again.Tucker is a calm, easygoing senior who enjoys a quiet routine and cozy spots to relax. He can be a little shy around men at first, but once he gets to know you, he warms up quickly and shows his affectionate side. He’s a polite house cat who has spent his life indoors and does best in a peaceful environment.He is front‑paw declawed, so Tucker must be indoor‑only, and he thrives in a home where he doesn’t have to worry about protecting himself. Tucker is currently doing well on Hill’s c/d prescription food for urinary health and is stable on this diet.

Story
Pumpkin AKA Peanut is a muscular, handsome, young man, who, once he has settled in, will love you with all his might. He loves to play with balls, toys, and especially that florescent worm on a string. His favorite snack is chicken and crab Churu (yuck??) and when you go to bed, he will seek out that cozy spot between your legs at night. He gets along with other cats, but I think he would prefer to have you all to himself. Apply today. Adoption fee: $200 (Includes spay/neuter, vaccinations, worming, and FeLV/FIV test - over $450 worth of veterinary care!) Go to www.ColumbusPetRescue.com to begin the adoption process today.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Cat InformationCheck out Mike! Our distinguished little man who is ready to greet you at the door and as soon as you wake up. He's a vocal boy when he's craving attention or a little snack. He loves his food, and is a big fan of a cheesy treat! He's quick to warm up and loves to give headbutts. Mike is FIV+, but he's never let it slow him down. Have a dog that is good with cats and needs a buddy? No problem. Mike is great with dogs, but is not a big fan of cats. He'd choose a snuggle with a dog over a cat any day.

Story
Daphanie is a playful, energetic kitten with the heart of an athlete! She loves to run, jump, and zoom around chasing toys, and she especially loves wand toys. If there’s a feather on a string involved, Daphanie will be leaping through the air showing off her impressive moves. While she’s always ready for playtime, Daphanie also has a soft, cuddly side. After she’s burned off some of that kitten energy, she’s happy to settle down as a sweet lap cat and enjoy some cozy snuggle time with her people. Daphanie does well with other cats, dogs, and children, making her a wonderful fit for many types of families. If you’re looking for a fun, athletic kitten who will keep you entertained and then curl up in your lap for cuddles, Daphanie could be the perfect addition to your home!
