Story
Leo is a sweet and shy cat. He is an indoor cat and would not go outside. If he is new to you, he will try to hide from you. Once he gets to know you, he will come and rub on you. He does not like loud noise and will run away from stranger. He is not a lap cat and he does not like to be held. However, he will not claw or bite you if you grab and hold him on. He will let you do that for a minute or two and will try to get away, so you should let him go. Leo is quite a unique cat. He only eats dried food, especially chicken flavor. He knows when he wants to eat and will stop when he eats enough. He does not see a half full food bowl as empty but will keep going back until it is empty if you do not fill it up. He is very careful every step he moves, and he will try not to knock anything down like other cats. His toy is mostly rubber bands. He likes to drink from a water fountain. He would be the best companion to you and he is low maintenance.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Hi, my name is Lexie.  I was recently surrendered to KSC when my human suffered serious health issues and could no longer take care of me.  It’s been confusing for me to not be in my home and though I’ve been a bit down, I’m a friendly, healthy girl .  The caregivers are taking good care of me and give me gentle pets and talk to me.    I hope to find a quiet forever home where I can spend my retirement years.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet. October 9, 2025, 9:30 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.This sweetheart was rescued from life on the streets and couldn’t be happier to be safe and loved. Conrad has grown up surrounded by his foster siblings and truly thrives with feline friends, so he’ll need to be adopted into a home with another friendly kitty—or alongside one of his siblings or foster buddies.   Conrad is also comfortable around cat-friendly dogs and would fit right into a gentle, multi-pet household. His favorite things include chasing the feather teaser, lounging in sunny spots for afternoon naps, and indulging in a few Temptations treats. With his playful spirit and loving nature, Conrad is ready to bring joy (and a few purrs) to his forever home!   If you would like to meet Conrad, please visit the following link to fill out an application.  https://www.kingstreetcats.org/info/adoptionVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet. October 17, 2025, 3:01 pm
