Kittens and cats in Rhode Island

🐾 Meet Simmons! 🐾Prancing his way to the adoption scene, Simmons is a 2-year-old charmer who has his best tuxedo on at all times. He absolutely loves to be pet and is excited that his dreams of being your center of attention are finally coming true! Simmons picks up on routines quickly and happily comes when called. He loves bird watching, recharging in the sunbeams, and above all else snuggling with his person. He's never far from where you are, and is an excellent personal assistant, bathroom attendant, and forever best friend. Although he hasn't met any yet, with his mellow personality, even when it comes to cat friendly doggos, we think he could do well with other feline friends. Simmons is now accepting adoption applications, available below!___________________________Please complete an adoption application if you are interested in adopting from Ten Lives!

Due to limited volunteer power, applications submitted for cats or kittens no longer available will not be reviewed. About Ten Lives:Ten Lives Cat Rescue is a 501(c)(3), nonprofit organization located in Rhode Island. Our foster-based program is 100% volunteer-powered. We do not have a facility or shelter with regular visiting hours. Out of respect for the time, privacy, and safety of our foster families, we require an approved adoption application before scheduling a meet and greet with a foster cat. Our goal is to place cats in their best-matched homes and facilitate lifelong adoptions. We do not review applications on a first-come, first-serve basis. We believe that veterinary care is an important part of cat guardianship. As such, a veterinary check is part of our adoption process. Our goal is to contact applicants within 96 business hours of receiving their application. During kitten season, wait times may be longer due to the influx of applications. We are all volunteers and kindly ask for your patience! All Ten Lives cats are spayed or neutered, receive age-appropriate vaccinations, tested for FIV/FeLv and parasites, dewormed, treated for fleas, and microchipped. These services are inclusive of the adoption fee.

💫 Meet Machu Peachu- lover of all wand toys! 💫Affectionately known as Peachu, this 2-year-old girl is as cute as they come.  She has been settling in beautifully since arriving to Ten Lives, enjoying the pampered treatment now that she is living her best life as an indoor princess!Peachu can be timid at first, but she is always open to getting some pets and can be won over with any wand toy. She's discovered toys and just loves engaging with them all now; small stuffed toys, ribbons, strings, anything on a wand, a mouse toy to toss around - she thinks they are the cat's meow! She has a fun personality that she’s slowly letting come out, but she is also affectionate.Peachu would do well with another cat in the home, but it wouldn't be required. She's very interested in meeting and playing with other cats and shows only curiosity. Ideally kids over the age of 12 who can understand her body language and respect her space as she warms up. She's a social eater and prefers to eat when you sit near her and get some pets or playtime in between munching.Peachu can't wait for her next adventure, and is excited to meet you soon! ___________________________Please complete an adoption application if you are interested in adopting from Ten Lives!

🐾 Meet Fudgy- your purrfect lap cat! 🐾Fudgy is a 2-year-old bundle of love who enjoys nothing more than being with her person! She is a happy girl who greets you with a loud meow, almost as if to say "it's time for us to snuggle".  She enjoys beds to snooze in, fa lap to relax on, and a covered cave just for her to keep an eye on things or if her arch nemesis, vacuum, comes out. Fudgy is a great addition to just about any home who is looking for a lovable companion. She gets along with other cats and while she has not met dogs or children, with proper introduction she should do just fine. Once an outdoor kitty, Fudgy is happy to be inside and spend all her 10 lives with you!Fudgy is now accepting adoption applications, available below!___________________________Please complete an adoption application if you are interested in adopting from Ten Lives!

Meet Smokey! 🐾 This sweet 9-month-old boy got a second chance when Walker’s Way Rescue stepped in just in time—and now he’s ready to find his forever home! Smokey is as loving as they come. He’s neutered, up to date on all vaccines, and FIV/FeLV negative. With his gentle personality and affectionate nature, he’s sure to melt your heart the moment you meet him. If you’re looking for a sweet, easygoing companion, Smokey is your guy! 💙

Meet Josh – Lap Cat, Biscuit Expert, and Part-Time Wrestler 🐾 At just 1½ years old, Josh is the perfect mix of playful energy and affectionate charm. This handsome boy has a big personality and an even bigger love for attention. If you’re looking for a cat who truly wants to be part of your daily routine, Josh is ready to apply for the position. Josh may be a little nervous at first and will likely need some time and patience to settle into a new home. But once he feels comfortable, his affectionate personality really shines. Josh is a professional lap cat who will happily curl up with you and purr endlessly. He absolutely loves belly rubs (yes, really!) and proudly holds the title of expert biscuit maker, kneading away whenever he’s feeling especially happy. Catnip is high on his list of favorite things, and he especially loves wand toys, which bring out his playful, athletic side. Josh does well with other cats but can get overwhelmed if there are too many around. He would do best with one confident feline friend who enjoys a good wrestling match and doesn’t mind some chasing and rough-and-tumble play. Josh believes playtime should be a full-contact sport. He could also do very well as the only cat in a home where his people are around often to give him the attention and snuggles he loves. Josh is currently eating Purina Pro Plan Urinary food and is doing great on it. If you’re looking for a fun, affectionate cat who will warm your lap, keep you entertained, and reward you with endless purrs (and fresh batches of biscuits), Josh might just be your perfect match. 🐾 Please be sure to read a cat's full bio before applying! We do our best to keep bios updated as we learn more about each cat or as circumstances change. The bio is the best place to find the most current and important information about their needs, personality, and ideal home. Thank you for your interest in adopting from Scruffy Paws Animal Rescue!

Meet Esmeralda, aka Essie   At around 9 months old, this beautiful striped tabby is the total package—smart, sweet, and full of personality. Essie’s favorite pastime is lounging in the window, keeping a close eye on the world (and “barking” at those pesky squirrels ).   She’s a treat enthusiast and will happily remind you when it’s snack time. Essie loves water—yes, even wet feet don’t bother her one bit! She follows her people around like a loyal little shadow and truly thrives on companionship.   Don’t let her playful side fool you—this girl is smart. She was told once to stay off the table and hasn’t gone back since. When it’s time to recharge, she prefers cozy, tucked-away spots where she can nap in peace.   Essie is the perfect mix of fun, affection, and intelligence—an ideal companion for someone looking for a loyal best friend who will always be by their side.   ##2688946##
