Ember is a two-year-old black Domestic Shorthair cat who would like you to know upfront that she is a diva. She is beautiful, she is clean, and she is wonderfully sassy, and somehow that combination makes her absolutely fascinating. This sleek and glossy girl keeps herself impeccably groomed, naps like it is a competitive sport, and gets excited for her favorite moment of the day when it's the arrival of her wet food. She announces herself with the most surprisingly sweet little chirp you will ever hear from a cat with this much personality.  Ember does not care about toys, is not fond of being picked up, and strongly prefers that affection happen on her timeline, and nobody else's. She is not asking for much, just a quiet space, a good nap spot, and a human who understands that patience is rewarded and rushing her is simply not an option. The right home for Ember is one that celebrates her independence and lets her call the shots. She would thrive as the one and only pet in a calm adult household where she can accept attention graciously and entirely on her own terms, reign as the undisputed queen of a quiet workshop, or hold court as a working indoor/outdoor farm cat who operates on her own schedule. She is not for everyone, but for the right person she is absolutely perfect.

She's wonderfully talkative and always has something to say, making every day a little brighter with her sweet little conversations.  At bedtime, Mabel's favorite place is curled up beside her person. She dreams of finding a forever home where she can snuggle, share cuddles, and be someone's loyal best friend. She has so much love to give and is just waiting for that special person to call her own.  Mabel also loves finding the highest perch in the house, where she can keep watch over everything happening below. Whether it's a cat tree, bookshelf, or window perch, she's happiest when she has a great view of her kingdom.  She does well around dogs and can happily share her home with a respectful canine companion. With other cats, Mabel simply needs a little patience and time to adjust.

This cat is in Tennessee. Adoption Donation $75 if picked up in TN.* Visit http://aarf-tn.com/adopt/cat-adoption-application/ to apply.  Say Hello to Pixie! Pixie is a 3 year old beautiful, fluffy girl with a sweet-but-sassy personality and the biggest, most expressive eyes—you can’t help but think of a little owl when she looks at you! Her coat is incredibly soft and fluffy, making her just as pretty as she is full of personality. Pixie loves being around her people, but she’s very much an “affection on my terms” kind of girl. She isn’t a big snuggler or lap cat, but she enjoys being nearby, hanging out with you, and getting some pets when the mood strikes. She’s the perfect companion for someone who appreciates an independent kitty who still wants to be part of the family.  When it’s playtime, Pixie is all in! She loves feather wands, anything with a bell, and chasing her toy mice around the house. Pixie is also a very clean little lady and takes pride in keeping herself tidy. At mealtime, she’s a crunchy-food girl through and through—she loves her dry food and isn’t particularly impressed by canned food.  Pixie’s ideal home: She would do best with older children and no dogs. She does fine with other cats and would be happy in a home that understands her independent, sassy little spirit. If you’re looking for a gorgeous, entertaining companion who will keep you company, make you laugh, and occasionally grace you with some Pixie-approved affection, this sweet and sassy girl might be the one for you!      * $150 plus transport fee (varies) for adoptions to the Northeast.  Interested in adopting?

This kitten is in Tennessee. Adoption Donation $100 if picked up in TN.* Visit http://aarf-tn.com/adopt/cat-adoption-application/ to apply. Sassy may be the smallest kitten in his litter, but he has a quiet confidence that makes him impossible to overlook. This handsome little black kitten likes to take a moment to watch what's happening before happily joining the fun. Once he decides it's time to play, he's all in, chasing toys, wrestling with his siblings, climbing to the highest perch, and investigating every box or cozy hiding spot he can find. After he has burned off some energy, Sassy is ready to curl up for cuddles, purring contentedly while soaking up pets and chatting with his people. His soft, shiny coat and expressive face make him especially charming, but it's his sweet nature that really stands out. Sassy has done well with visitors and has always lived happily with his mama and siblings. He hasn't had the chance to meet dogs yet, and he has only been around children briefly while his foster family made sure this tiny guy stayed safe. Because Sassy is such a petite kitten and can easily end up underfoot, he would likely be happiest in an indoor home where everyone is mindful of his small size and where gentle playmates can match his playful spirit. His foster family thinks he may stay on the smaller side, just like his mama. If you're looking for a kitten who is equal parts adventurous explorer and affectionate cuddle buddy, Sassy would love to meet you.

Braveheart has been making herself heard since the very beginning, and her bold little voice helped change her family's future. This cheerful black kitten earned her name after calling for help when she tumbled out of a garage attic, leading rescuers to her and the rest of her family. That same fearless spirit still shines today. Braveheart is active, curious, and always eager to see what's happening around her. Whether she's chasing a toy across the room, climbing to the highest perch, or popping out of a box to surprise her siblings, she brings energy and fun wherever she goes. Braveheart is also a social little companion. She enjoys being part of whatever her people are doing and may hop onto your lap or even your shoulder when she decides it's time for attention. She likes being brushed, loves interactive play, and isn't shy about sharing her thoughts with a happy little chat. She has always lived with her mama and siblings and has shown interest in the other cats in her foster home. Braveheart has been comfortable meeting visiting adults and school aged children. She hasn't had the chance to meet dogs yet. With her playful nature, Braveheart would thrive in an indoor home where she has room to run, plenty of toys to chase, and cat trees or other safe places to climb. She especially enjoys having companions to wrestle and play alongside. If you're looking for a confident, affectionate kitten who brings both adventure and laughter to every day, Braveheart would love to meet you.
