Domestic Mediumhair kittens & cats in Springfield, Massachusetts

This sweet group of cats came to us together and is now ready to find their next homes. While they can be adopted together if you’re looking to welcome multiple feline friends, they are also happy to go to separate homes and start new chapters of their own. These cats have lived with other cats and a dog in the past, so they are comfortable sharing their space with furry companions. Like many cats experiencing a big change, they can be a bit nervous in new environments and will need some time, patience, and understanding to fully settle in. They would do best in homes that understand the importance of a slow transition and are willing to let them adjust at their own pace. With love, routine, and a calm environment, these kitties are sure to become wonderful companions. If you’re looking to give one—or more—of these cats a fresh start, they’re ready to meet you and begin their journey home. 💛 Change is hard for this cat. This cat will be very nervous when you first bring them home. You will need to set up a room with a litter box, food, and water.
