Story
Luna is a very sweet girl who loves any cuddles and pets you give her. She spends most of her time indoors, she has the option to go outside but seems to prefer to be inside. She is just about 2 years old so she still has her occasional zoomies and likes to play. Very talkative as well. She will always let you know what’s going on. She to herself mostly, napping in the sun most of the day, and always greets me when I get home from work, like she’s waiting for me. I hate to have to find a new home for her but it would make me feel a little better to know that she went to someone who would love her as I did.

Story
Charlie is about seven years old. I rescued him from a shelter in Florida to be a playmate for my other cat Roxy. Charlie would be happiest if he’s able to go outside and play and come back in to sleep and to eat. He’s very loyal if you go for a walk, he will follow you. I have always said that I think there is a person reincarnated in Charlie and he’s very special.

Story
I rescued Roxy from a shelter in Florida. She had pneumonia. She was about eight weeks old, and the shelter was gonna let her pass away because it was too much work to get her on medication’s and take care of her. So I adopted her and took care of her. I absolutely love her. She is like a little old lady. She wants to lay on your lap curl up on your bed curl up on your couch if you have a heater, she wants to curl up next to your heater. She’s very sweet. She’s only vocal when she wants treats. I have to move so that I can have space for my son and unfortunately the pets cannot come

Story
Hi! My name is Stormy and I am available for adoption.I was brought to RASKC on April 13, 2026 with my seven nursing kittens! We all went to a wonderful foster home so I could continue to be a great mom. Now my kittens are grown so I am back at RASKC to look for my forever family :)My foster states that I am quite the affectionate and sweet gal, but I was very adamant at protecting my kittens from the resident dogs. I MAY be fine with dogs in the future with a very slow introduction.I like getting attention on my own terms. I can get overstimulated with petting, so please move carefully with me and keep an eye out for signs that I might need a break. I also give light love bites if you stop petting me too early. Due to these facts about me I would do best in a home without younger children.I am a spirited cat with a fun-loving personality! I may be sensitive to handling, so I would do best in a home with a cat savvy family who knows when to give me some space.I am currently in a foster home, please fill out a foster interest form for the chance to meet me :)

Story
HEARTWARMING RESCUE STORY DOB 8/26/22 Hey there, everyone! I'm Lollis, a very affectionate, delightful, playful “torbie” gal which means that I'm a brown tabby with patches of peach that makes me look like I was splashed with caramel in a candy factory. I can't get enough time to spend with Foster Meowmy, so I sleep with her and am always asking her for cuddles, especially when I don't have to compete with the resident cats for her attention. Although my independent, freedom-loving spirit has proven helpful in dealing “as needed” with the dogs, other cats, and kids in my foster home, my innate friskiness has made me a perfect companion for those same kids. I’ve been very bonded to Foster Meowmy ever since she spotted me at her jobsite as a seven-month-old stray kitten who had no momma or siblings in sight. Realizing that Foster Meowmy was my ticket to a life that was better than dumpster diving, I wasted no time and ran up to her. She scooped me up and drove home with me cuddled in her lap. Yes, our special connection began on that unforgettable journey. To this day, in those cherished moments when I need a little snuggle, it’s Foster Meowmy to whom I turn when I seek cuddling. I hope that my heartwarming rescue story has touched your heart. Yes, I chose Foster Meowmy, and now it's time for you to choose me to be your next feline companion. I want to become an integral part of your life and make every day an adventure worth sharing. Arrange to meet me today, and let's form a bond that's unbreakable! Incidentally, there are advantages to adopting a gal like me who’s past the stage of kitten mayhem. I’m much less likely to cause chaos in your home or break any of your family heirlooms. HOPE ID 23-1014-A047 Lollis is currently in the Houston, Texas area but can be transported to this location upon adoption. The $325 adoption fee includes transport, health certificate, spay/neuter, basic vaccines, microchip and registration, testing for FIV/FeLV, negative fecal test, and preventative treatment against fleas and parasites.
