Domestic Longhair kittens & cats in Kenton, Ohio

Meet Carol (aka Feral Carol) 😼✨Carol came to us with a reputation. Upon arrival, she was mostly feral and fully committed to a “look but don’t touch” lifestyle. Hence the nickname Feral Carol—said lovingly, but also with a little fear.Fast forward to now and Carol has made some huge personal growth. We can touch her! She allows it! Does she love it? Absolutely not. Does she tolerate it like a tiny, spicy Victorian child? Yes.Being held is still a hard no, thank you very much. Carol is going to need a patient, cat-savvy adopter who understands that love doesn’t always look like cuddles—it sometimes looks like slow blinks from across the room and quiet coexistence.If you enjoy earning trust, celebrating small victories, and telling people “she’s not mean, she’s just Carol,” then this girl might be your soulmate. Adopt Carol and become part of her redemption arc. 🖤😹More information? Call Marion Area Humane Society at 740-389-6548 or email at manager@mahspets.org

Hello, I'm Coco. My journey here is woven with magic. One starlit night, while dreaming beside my two kittens, a whispering wind told us of a place where warmth and love awaited. By morning, we found ourselves nestled in this cozy shelter. I'm a gentle soul, seeking a quiet corner in someone's heart and home. My sweet nature makes me the perfect companion for peaceful days. If you long for a touch of magic and a lot of love, I'm just the friend you need.Note from Paws human: Coco belonged to a 90-year old woman who never had her spayed, so she ended up pregnant. She had two kittens. The elderly woman died, and one of her neighbors brought in Coco and the kittens to Paws Animal Shelter. Coco is very shy and so far is hanging out on top of the cage in our Zen Meow room (set up for cats who need a calm home environment). In taking her photos I climbed on a chair and petted her, and she immediately started purring. She clearly loves attention but is a little to frightened yet to come down and meet people. With a little time, we're sure she'll come out of her shell. She really is a beautiful, loving cat.

Hello, I'm Beauty. I have a heart full of love and a spirit eager to play. My days are filled with chasing toys, and my nights are spent purring in contentment. People are my favorite; I just can't get enough of their company. Their gentle strokes and sweet whispers make my day. However, I must confess, I'm not a fan of other felines. I prefer to be the queen of my own castle. I dream of a home where I can be the center of attention, sharing my sweetness and playfulness with a loving family. Adopt me, and let's create a lifetime of beautiful memories together.Note from Paws humans: Beauty was abandoned at an apartment complex in Urbana and was brought to Paws Animal Shelter to find a forever home.

Hello, I'm Jackson. I'm a bit timid, but don't let that fool you. I'm as sweet as they come. I got my shyness from my mom, she was a wild one. But don't worry, I'm not like her. I'm learning to trust, to love. Every day, I'm growing braver, more confident. I'm discovering the joy of soft pats. I've also really gotten into playing, especially with those fishing pole toys. I'm a gentle soul, eager to find a place where I can feel safe and loved. Adopting me won't just change my life, it'll add a bundle of joy to yours. Let's make beautiful memories together.Note from Paws humans: Jackson came to us with his brother, Shaggy (who has been adopted). Their mom was feral, and has now been trapped and spayed, so no more kittens for her. The family taking care of mom brought her two gorgeous kittens to Paws Animal Shelter so they could be adopted.

Louis is a neutered, long-haired gentleman with a soft heart to match his fluffy coat. He’s on the shy side and likes to keep to cozy hiding spots at first, but don’t let that fool you—once you’re nearby, he’s happy to accept gentle pets and quiet company. Louis isn’t a fan of being picked up, but he shows affection in his own calm, sweet way. He does well with other cats and would be a great companion in a peaceful home that understands shy kitties just need a little patience. Give Louis the time and space to feel safe, and he’ll reward you with soft purrs and a quiet, loving presence.Cats are same day adoptions as they do not require an application process.

FELV+DOB: 4/12/2024 *This cat is currently in a foster home and arrangements can be made for a meeting once you have applied with us. All cats are spayed or neutered, vaccinated and tested for FIV/FeLV. If interested in adopting me, please fill out an online adoption application at https://colonycats.org/adoption_app.html to expedite the process. Due to the large number of inquiries received, we are unable to respond to emails quickly. One of the biggest misconceptions about feline leukemia, which suppresses a cat’s immune system, is that it is an automatic death sentence. There are many variables, however, that come into play that determine how FeLV will affect a particular cat.  To learn more about this condition visit:  https://resources.bestfriends.org/article/feline-leukemia-felv-faqsMarch 29, 2025, 6:23 am
