Story
Sable is a beautiful long hair 6 mo old kitten. She is a little shy at first but very sweet and affectionate when she feels safe. She is super playful and loves anything dangling from a wand. Sable is FeLV positive and needs to be an only cat or be in a household with another FeLV positive cat or a cat that has been vaccinated.  She has not been allowed to share a room with other cats in the shelter but plays with them through the windows. She is currently extremely healthy but has a higher chance of getting sick later in life or may never have a medical issue related to the virus at all. She has Ben spayed and vaccinated. If you can give Sable a stress free home, please fill out an application for her at mitchellanimalrescue.orgJune 20, 2026, 4:46 pm

Story
Meet Bello! Bello is a 2-month-old domestic shorthair tabby who’s neutered and medically up-to–date, meaning this legendary creature is ready to be your new trump card! Bello gets along well with other cats as well as kids. Just like his namesake of Bello, Bard of the Brambles, Bello is hard-wired for adventure. He’ll scour every corner of a space and play with every toy he can find like an expert explorer. Once he’s all done, he’ll cozy up by your side for a well-deserved rest. If you’re looking for a new adventure buddy, Bello may be your perfect match! Meet and greet/adoption appointments are highly recommended to ensure the animal you are interested in is currently at the shelter. Please call or e-mail the shelter to set up an appointment to meet and adopt! DON'T FORGET! Cats often do better with a friend! All our cats and kittens have an "Adopt one and the 2nd at half the adoption fee!" bonus!!! Our kitten/cat adoption fees vary on age, ($25-125 +TAX) special needs, lonely heart status (cats that have been with us 6+ months), and for our senior to seniors program. Our adoption fees include the following: all of our cats/kittens are current on vaccinations (FVRCP series and Rabies if over 3 months of age) at the point of adoption, dewormed, tested for Feline Leukemia (FeLV) and Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV), treated for fleas/ticks/earmites in addition to being spayed or neutered once the cat reaches 2 lbs in weight. All cats and kittens adopted from the shelter are microchipped. Adoption fees may vary in special circumstances. Because we are on a busy street, we require that all cats leaving the shelter be in a carrier. All pets are up for adoption until an approved application is processed and their adoption fee is paid.

Story
Meet Shroofus Sproutsire! Shroofus is a 2-month-old domestic shorthair who’s ready to have a permanent place in your heart (and your deck of cards). Shroofus is neutered and medically up-to-date, and gets along great with other cats and kids. He’s full of that perfect playful kitten personality– bursts of energy paired with cuddly catnaps once he tires himself out. While kittens can’t exactly laugh, we still feel like the quote on Shroofus Sproutsire’s card describes him perfectly– “his laughter–and everything else about him– was infectious”. Shroofus’ infectious personality is sure to capture your heart– come meet him today! Meet and greet/adoption appointments are highly recommended to ensure the animal you are interested in is currently at the shelter. Please call or e-mail the shelter to set up an appointment to meet and adopt! DON'T FORGET! Cats often do better with a friend!
