Domestic Mediumhair kittens & cats in Lorain, Ohio

Meet Aime When Aime first came into rescue, she was a very scared and terrified little girl, unsure of the world around her. With time, patience, and lots of love, she has truly blossomed into a sweet little purr machine. Aime is still a bit shy at first, but once she feels safe, her loving personality shines through. She adores being pet, happily cuddles, and will reward you with the softest, most content purrs. She gets along wonderfully with other cats and enjoys playing with toys when she’s feeling playful. One of Aime’s favorite things is curling up in bed with her human, soaking up the comfort and warmth of being close. She’s a gentle, affectionate girl who just needed someone to believe in her—and now she’s ready to share all that love with her forever family. ##2555501##

Zisel is a calm and gentle girl who loves the company of other cats and doesn’t mind dogs. She prefers a peaceful home where she can relax and feel comfortable. Zisel enjoys cuddles when she’s in the mood, but it has to be on her terms. Once she decides it’s time for affection, she’s incredibly sweet and loving. She isn’t fond of small children and would do best in a quieter home where she can feel safe and at ease. Zisel would make a wonderful companion for someone who appreciates a mellow, independent cat with a soft side. ##2290685##

Ms Cookie is a super sweet little girl who loves to play and cuddle. Great with other kittens cats and even dogs

Shirley’s owner passed away and I have been taking care of her since then. She likes to be petted but also enjoys her own space. She is a very healthy chill cat. She has some extra toes like Hemingway’s cats.

Meet Kai. He's a devoted brother with a playful spirit. Kai arrived at the start of January alongside his beloved brother, Lad, after a local grassroots rescue organization brought them into our care. From day one, these boys have been inseparable. They nap curled together, explore side by side and find comfort in one another in the sweetest ways. Because of their incredibly close bond, Kai must be adopted with Lad. Kai is a handsome medium-haired kitten with a soft, fluffy coat that will require regular brushing to keep it tangle-free and looking its best. His future adopter should be committed to routine grooming. It's not only to maintain his coat, but it's also a wonderful opportunity to strengthen your bond with him. In many ways, Kai is your classic kitten. He’s playful, curious and full of youthful energy. He enjoys chasing toys, exploring his surroundings and then settling down for a well-earned cuddle session. He will need all the typical kitten care: enrichment, playtime, scratching posts, proper nutrition, and lots of love and guidance as he grows. What makes Kai especially remarkable is his devotion to his brother. He is a steady, comforting presence for Lad and is always nearby. Their relationship is a beautiful example of feline companionship. Adopting two kittens instead of one comes with wonderful benefits. Bonded pairs: * Keep each other entertained and active. * Learn social skills from one another. * Burn off energy together. * Provide comfort and companionship when you’re not home. With Kai and Lad, you’re not just adopting kittens. You'll be welcoming a ready-made family into your home. *Due to Lad's medical diagnosis, Kai and Lad need to be adopted into a home without stairs. Kai is neutered, vaccinated and microchipped, so he’s ready to begin his next chapter. If you’re looking for a playful, affectionate kitten and are willing to open your heart to his equally special brother, then Kai is waiting to meet you. Come by and spend some time with this special duo. The shelter is open Tuesdays through Fridays 3:30-6:30pm AND Saturdays & Sundays 1pm-4pm. No appointments are needed during those times. If you are not available during those times, special arrangements for a meet and greet may be able to be arranged by emailing arfcats@bereaanimalrescue.com. Thank you for considering the adoption of a shelter animal in need!

Meet Lad. He's a little wobbly and a lot wonderful. At the start of January, Lad and his brother Kai were brought to us by a local grassroots rescue organization. From the moment they arrived, it was clear that these two boys share a bond that is simply unbreakable. They sleep curled together, play together and find comfort in always being side by side. Because of this beautiful connection, Lad and Kai must be adopted together. Lad is a handsome medium-haired boy with a soft, fluffy coat that will need regular brushing to keep him tangle-free and looking his very best. Grooming time will not only help maintain his coat, it will also be a wonderful way to bond with this special little soul. You may notice a health waiver in Lad’s file. Lad has been diagnosed with cerebellar hypoplasia (CH). It is a neurological condition that occurs when the cerebellum (the part of the brain responsible for coordination and balance) does not fully develop. It is not contagious, not painful and not progressive. This means that it will not worsen over time. Cats with CH often have a wobbly gait, head bobbing, or occasional loss of balance. In Lad’s case, he bobs when he focuses (especially during mealtime) and may wobble when walking. However, CH does not impact a cat’s intelligence, personality, or ability to feel joy. Most importantly, it does not shorten life expectancy. With the right environment and simple accommodations, cats with CH can live full, happy, comfortable lives. To help Lad thrive, he will need: * A one-level home or apartment (he has not been exposed to stairs and we want to ensure his safety). * Carpeted flooring, as he maintains his balance much better on carpet than hardwood. * Elevated food and water dishes, since his head bobbing can make ground-level bowls challenging. * An adopter committed to regular brushing to keep his beautiful coat mat-free. Lad and Kai spent time in one of our loving foster homes, where Lad showed just how resilient and affectionate he truly is. He may wobble, but he plays, cuddles and loves just like any other kitten. His determination is inspiring and Kai is always right there, offering comfort and companionship. Lad isn’t looking for perfection. He’s looking for patience. He’s looking for understanding. Most of all, he’s looking for a home where his differences are embraced and where he and his brother can continue their journey together. Somewhere out there is a family where Lad’s wobble will be celebrated, Kai’s devotion will be treasured and where they can always stay together. We hope that family could be you. *Note: Our adoption consultant will discuss his health records with you in detail to make sure that any questions you may have are answered. It is important to us that you, Lad and Kai are set up for success in your life together. The shelter is open Tuesdays through Fridays 3:30-6:30pm AND Saturdays & Sundays 1pm-4pm. No appointments are needed during those times. If you are not available during those times, special arrangements for a meet and greet may be able to be arranged by emailing arfcats@bereaanimalrescue.com.
