Domestic Longhair kittens & cats in Kalamazoo, Michigan

Misty is a gorgeous gray tabby cat with a long, silky coat. She has big, expressive green eyes, adorable white tufts of fur on her ears and a white chin. Misty has been a dedicated mother caring for her 4 kittens during her time with us, but now this young mama is ready for a break and would love more than anything to be pampered with pets, cuddles, toys and treats at her new home.

Grandpa T is a sweet senior fellow of around 16 years old who came to us from another rescue after he was relinquished because his family was moving... this guy needs a second chance at a real forever home! Pa T does NOT like other cats & would do best as the only pet in a home. Perhaps because of his abandonment, he needs affection with new people to be slow & on his terms, he will react negatively if you do not respect his boundaries. When he feels safe & you've earned his trust he will headbutt you for pets & show off his lap cat side. Pa T is FIV positive but that doesn't affect his day to day life at all!

Glenda was found curled up in an apartment complex lot after her owner moved out. She had a large healing wound on her hip and her coat was in bad shape. She battled a bladder infection when we first got her but is doing better now! She does have some early elevated kidney values that will need to be watched, but she's a sweet girl who deserves a calm home. She can be a bit spicy when you try to make her do something she rather not! She would probably do best in a quieter home where she can be the boss!

Emile came to us from the same place, but is definitely more shy. He was far less socialized than some of the other kitties we got out of this situation, and he wasn’t even fixed yet. We got him fixed and up-to-date on vaccines, but he was still incredibly scared of people and would yowl and growl to let us know about it whenever we approached his condo. We could see he was curious and wanting to be brave, so he moved to a foster who could focus on his socialization directly. Sure enough, 24 hours—and one churu treat—later, he had visibly relaxed and even allowed some very tentative chin scritches! Turns out this boy will do just about anything for more churu. He still has some domestic cat skills left to master and a ways to go on his socialization journey, but he has graduated to allowing pets all around his head without treats (if you go slow) and mainly yowling when his foster buddies are getting treats instead of him. Emile will need a quiet home with someone who understands his ways of communication and at least one brave kitty friend to remind him everything’s okay. We are now accepting applications to meet Emile!

Myla's (long hair black) story is one of resilience. She was surrendered by her owner after disappearing for a few days, during which time her condition worsened. When she returned, she was in pain and refused to eat, though a thorough examination revealed only a few ulcerations in her mouth with no other obvious issues. Myla is very friendly with people, though she initially struggled with the presence of other cats, often becoming grumpy. However, she has made significant progress while in foster care, showing her much more adaptable side. Despite this, she might thrive best in a home with older children and fewer other cats, where she can receive the attention and care she needs.

Solomon (long hair orange & white) and Cecilia (short hair orange & white) came from a hoarder, arriving with a host of challenges. Both cats had a condition called entropion, where their eyelids rolled inward, causing discomfort. As a result, they each required surgery, and you may still notice the suture line under their eyes. Despite their rough start, Solomon and Cecilia have shown incredible resilience. They are both quite shy, but Solomon is expected to warm up more quickly. You might notice Solomon's quirky haircut-a necessity due to the severe matting he had when he first arrived.

This friendly cat showed up on our door in the middle of a snowstorm in January. I throughly tried to find his owner/home but he does not have one or he was abandoned. I have been looking for a forever home for him and got him neutered. He is very friendly, not “skiddish” at all, and very cuddly. When I got him neutered, they estimated his age to be 1 1/2 years old.

We got Jeger from a pet store in Muskegon Michigan when he was a little kitten. He is now 3 years old, shy at first but very cuddly and playful. He is amazing with children and loves to watch birds and squirrels in the yard.

Laney is a female Calico DLH DOB: April 2021 Adoption fee: $75.00 I am a chill, independent girl. I enjoy a good nap and laying in the sun. I am an observer; I don’t really play. I am very affectionate, and I love cuddles, scratches, and to be loved on. I don’t mind being held, but I will let you know when I have had enough. I am a great girl with a huge personality and many quirks. I can be quite talkative when I am searching for attention. I would do best in a home with no other cats or older cats who aren’t looking for a playmate. I would do okay with a cat friendly dog if introduced with a slow and positive introduction. I would do best in a home with older children, pending observation interaction. I am a sweet, loving, and easy-going girl; I will make a purr-fect companion for the right person, couple, or family!

I have a wonderful cat that unfortunately has not fit in with my cat. I brought Timber home a couple months ago and things were almost neutral until my much larger cat started picking. It has more recently escalated to the point the two can hardly be in the same room or walk by each other without one of them charging or backing the other into a corner. It is very clear that they are not happy with each others presence. Timber is 6 yr old female, fixed and liter box trained. When I took her in, she had been abandoned in the woods for an unknown amount of time up to 5 months. The family who found her, took her to the vet for a check up and were given the all clear but I do not have any records. She is very friendly with my 5 yr old daughter and has had exposure to large dogs without an issue. Timber is looking for love and we are so sad that it isn’t working out in our home. She is a very loving cat, but will likely be skittish to move.
