Story
Meet Stevie — the kind of cat you don’t just meet, you fall for. From the moment you walk into the room, Stevie is already on her way to you, leaning in with her whole fluffy body, dramatically melting to the floor for pets like it’s her life’s greatest joy. She doesn’t just enjoy affection — she celebrates it. Rolls, stretches, head bumps, happy flops… Stevie turns being loved into an art form, and it is impossibly cute. One pet is never enough for her, and honestly, you won’t want it to be. Watch her fold for pets in her YouTube video https://youtu.be/K5y0ymlZdYU?si=xPfISx_Jb4R8-6pZ Stevie is a one-year-old orange tabby with the softest fluff and the warmest, most loving personality. She is incredibly people-oriented and instantly comfortable with new friends. There’s no shy phase with this girl — she greets attention with confidence and affection, leaning into you for more like she’s known you forever. If you’re looking for a cat who truly wants to be involved in your life, Stevie is it. She’s also wonderfully confident and outgoing. New room? New space? Stevie is already exploring it, tail up and curiosity leading the way. She loves discovering her surroundings and settles in quickly, making her an easy, joyful addition to a home. Her relaxed confidence makes her a delight to watch and an even bigger joy to share space with. Above all else, Stevie just loves. Loves people, loves touch, loves connection. She’s the kind of cat who makes your house feel warmer, cozier, and fuller the moment she arrives. If you’re dreaming of a sweet, affectionate companion who will happily soak up all the love you have to give (and then ask for more), Stevie is ready to steal your heart — and your lap.

Statistics show that there are over 1 million homeless animals in this region alone. Three Little Pitties Rescue is a nonprofit dog and cat rescue that partners with the community to make a difference. Our mission is to reduce the homeless pet population through community outreach, free spay and neuter services, and saving all breeds of dogs and cats from the streets or animal shelters that oftentimes have no other option but to euthanize animals for space. This kitty you’ve found online is lucky to be in our program, and even luckier to have you notice it! Three Little Pitties Rescue (3LP) wants to set you and your new family member up for success! In addition to a fully vetted furbaby you also receive other additional perks such as a code for a free bag of cat litter AND a code for 50% off a 2nd bag of litter from Catalyst Pet, coupons for a fun visit to Petco, and support through our Facebook Adopters group where you can connect with thousands of other adopters, 3LP volunteers, fosters and staff. We seek to adopt to families who understand that these are rescues and will require continued efforts but are well on their way to being the best kitties that they can be! We ask that you give them time (can take weeks to months) to decompress in their new home, do slow introductions to other pets and let their true personalities have a chance to come through.  We celebrated our 7 year anniversary this year! Through the combined efforts of all of our hardworking staff and volunteers, we have placed over 16,000 very lucky dogs and cats into amazing homes! By adopting from us, you save TWO lives! The pet you adopt, and you create an opportunity for another animal to be saved in that spot. Together, we can be heroes.

Story
Meet Bean Sprout This loving kitty adores attention and will happily soak up all the pets and scratches you can give. She's known for her signature move: the head rub – against you, the couch, the table... anything to get those sweet, sweet scritches. Call her name and she’ll come trotting over, ready to curl up next to you on the couch like the devoted companion she is. Bean Sprout would love to be your one and only – no other cats needed when she has enough love to fill the whole house! It's worth noting that Bean Sprout is FIV+, which simply means her immune system is slightly lower than the average kitty’s. However, she doesn’t require any extra care beyond routine vet checkups — just a loving home where she can live her best life. If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate companion with a heart of gold and a royal purr, Bean Sprout is ready to be your happily ever after. 💖 Watch Bean Sprout's Video here: https://youtu.be/57Xs35yWyBg?si=vgHVCStQOyKRfCwZ Application: https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/62cc8e128b02916730334440/68606297ff1e404321021fd8 Questions?

Story
Ember is a striking 5-month-old black kitten with a personality that sets him apart from the typical rambunctious youngster. This handsome boy has a more stoic, strong-willed nature - he's wise beyond his months and carries himself with a quiet confidence. Don't let his serious demeanor fool you, though. Ember still enjoys playtime and will happily curl up for cuddles when the mood strikes. He just does it all with a bit more composure and independence than your average kitten. He's the type who observes the world thoughtfully before diving in. If you're looking for a kitten companion with depth of character and a calm, steady presence, Ember might be your perfect match. This little old soul is ready to find his forever home.

Story
Hi, I`m Lucy! I came to WCHS after I had my babies under a shed! Here I enjoy lounging around and looking gorgeous! I love to chat and walk between your legs! My history with other cats and kids is unknown, but here at the shelter, I seem to not enjoy other cats. I would enjoy a home free of dogs. If I sound like a good fit for your home, come meet me today!

Story
Guppy is an adorable 6-month-old tuxedo kitten bursting with personality! This playful boy is everything you'd expect from a young male kitten - full of energy, ready for zoomies at a moment's notice, and always up for an adventure. While Guppy has plenty of kitten antics to share, he's also incredibly loving and will literally jump into your arms when it's time for cuddles. He'd thrive best with another kitten companion to match his energy and keep him entertained, though if you have the time to dedicate to interactive play sessions throughout the day, he'll be just as happy as your solo sidekick. If you're looking for a fun-loving kitten who brings both laughter and snuggles to your home, Guppy is ready to leap into your life!
