Domestic Longhair kittens & cats in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Meet Penne. This sweet and sassy fluff ball spent the majority of her short life living in a feral cat colony in Allentown. She can be a bit shy, but has learned to live life indoors and will warm up to someone who is willing to be patient and put in the time with her. Penne loves to have her head pet and scratched, as well as a good belly rub. Her favorite toy is a shoelace that her foster mom gave to her. Penne is still learning to be a normal house cat after spending her whole life outside, which means she's very weary of new humans. She doesn't trust everyone right away and may give you a little hiss or two, but if you give her time to warm up to you she will play and sleep next to you anytime. Her weakness is kitty gogurt tube treats, and she will forget everything to gulp down one of those suckers. She would do well in a home with other cats but hasn't been tested around other kinds of animals. Penne is a little over 2 years old, spayed, vaccinated, flea treated, dewormed, microchipped, and tested FIV/FeLV negative.

Meet Jett. As handsome as he is sweet, this gentle giant with a sad story is ready to finally find a human that won't let him down again. At one point he had an "owner that would let him and his brother in and out of the house unfixed. A kind neighbor decided to catch the two of them and get them neutered. A few weeks later, their "owner moved out and left the two boys behind. Jett's brother disappeared, but he stayed close to his old home, often hanging out on the porch. We brought him inside and got all of the matting out of his thick, dense fur. Now he's slowly adjusting to humans and the indoors again. He can understandably be a bit shy in new situations but once he settles in he is a total love bug. He has no issue with being picked up and coddled like a baby. Jett is estimated to be 2 years old, neutered, vaccinated, flea treated, dewormed, microchipped, and tested FIV/FeLV negative. He is available at the Waterfront (Homestead) Petco Adoption Center.

Meet Phoenix! Phoenix is a BIG, seven-year-old boy. He has a sweet demeanor and would do well in a variety of homes. He gets along with other cats & we believe he would be OK with dogs and children, given proper introductions. He would also be fine as an only cat as well! Phoenix is neutered, vaccinated, tested for FeLV/FIV (neg/neg), flea treated, microchipped, and dewormed. To apply, go to: conquerthecolony.com/adoption-form

Meet Jade! Jade is a two-year-old beauty looking for her forever home. Jade can be a little shy at first and would do best with experienced cat owners.

This pretty, young lady turned up on a suburban porch, with several of her babies in tow. The kindly neighbor started feeding her and the kittens and has been working getting the entire crew (turns out she had two litters) all vetted. While her kittens were somewhat skittish, Penny turns out to be just a love and clearly was someone's pet at some time. Penny likes to be petted and talked to but she is not wild about being picked up and carried around although that might change once she has the security of a permanent home. Penny has been vet checked, vaccinated for FVRCP and rabies, dewormed and spayed. She has tested negative for feline leukemia and FIV although she is still outside. She can be retested prior to adoption. Bella's birth date is unknown but she is estimated to be about two years old.  Penny has not been formally surrendered to Animal Advocates or observed by Animal Advocates' volunteers. This is a courtesy post to facilitate a home-to-home adoption for Bella. For more information, please respond directly to Gloria at 412.974.6626 or house111@verizon.net.May 9, 2024, 10:45 pm

Oh! Did you see that?! What was that majestic fluffy thing? Was it a bird, a plane? Nope. It was Princess Lightning Flirty Floof! This lady is as fast as lightning and as beautiful with her sleek long black hair and super fluffy tail. As her name gives away, she is quite the flirt - nuzzling nearby objects and purring, purring, purring as she requests attention from you. But don't think you can just pet her; she's still a princess after all and has to be in the mood for pets. If she does want attention: beware! She won't stop nuzzling and pawing at you for ALL the LOVE! Lightning has been in her foster home for a few months now and has been learning to trust her human caretakers. At first, she wouldn't come out from under the bed but now she is the flirty girl above. She can be a bit skittish at first but warms up after a few days to new people. When you go to bed (or just near a bed) expect her to suddenly appear from thin air and ask for love. She is awkward when petted, often belly flopping and, in a few occasions, falling off the bed, causing quite a few giggles from her foster parents. She LOVES to zoom around with toys! Don't be surprised if you hear tiny mews as she carries around her latest favorite stuffy toy. She even likes dog toys and has been known to steal the dog's toys! Lightning currently resides with other cats and would love to be in a home with another kitty who will play and hang out with her. She also lives with a medium sized active dog who she tolerates and even sometimes nuzzles and grooms. She could do well in a home with cat-savvy children who give her space when she needs it. Lightning is about 10 months old. She has been spayed, dewormed, flea treated, microchipped, vaccinated, and has tested FIV/FeLV-. If you are looking for an ever-flirty floofy new shadow who will make you giggle with her antics and silliness, do apply for this Princess Lightning soon!

Frankie is a lovely little boy. He is very affectionate and needs no acclimation. We will walk in and own the place. He is so sweet and will not disappoint.

Beautiful Raquel needs a patient, understanding, gentle adopter. She's never experinced those things from a human before and she doesn't quite understand them yet. Raquel originally came from an overcrowded home in Erie County where she was neglected and ignored by the humans. She and a few of her housemates made their way to a shelter here in Westmoreland County where she stayed for about 6 months while volunteers worked hard to gain her trust. Sadly, that shelter had to close their doors so Raquel came to us at Pet Freinds in the hopes that a home environment would help her come out of her shell. Progress has been slow and she is still very fearful and can come off as a mean girl. While Raquel is loved and safe in her foster home, we would love to see her move into a permanent situation so she won't ever need to move around again. It is possible she would be happier and better suited for barn-cat life away from people and those homes would be considered. Ultimately, we'd love to see her go into a quiet home with a loving, patient family. She may never be a lap cat or even be terribly social but she is a gorgeous girl who deserves a chance at a soft place to land.

Meet Maisie! This gorgeous long hair girl is looking for the right family to love and care for her. She would do best in a home with no other pets and no or older respectful children. To meet Maisie, complete an online application at www.washingtonpashelter.org or visit during walk through hours on Tuesday 1pm - 7pm and Wednesday through Saturday 1pm - 4pm.

Meredith is a beautiful 6 month old kitten who was found living in an outside colony. She is so sweet and cuddly. She loves to be brushed and pushes up against you for attention. She is good with other kitties and all up to date on vaccines. She is ready for a special home!

Beauty came from an outside situation. She is spayed, tested neg. and UTD on vaccines. She has a speck in her eye that was diagnosed as Iris melanosis. We think she had it upon intake and have not noticed any significant change. Adopter would need to closely monitor the size and shape to watch for changes. It is possible that her eye may need to be removed, which the rescue could help with the fee. However, our vet feels there's a better chance that the spot is benign. Beauty is 5-7 years old and is a quiet, sweet girl who takes a little bit to warm up- but then loves snuggles! Would do best in an adult only, calm home. Likes other cats. sosrescue15644@gmail.com
