Story
Roscoe is extremely playful and sweet. He was the runt of his litter which is probably why he has so much spunk!! His nickname is Rossy Bossy. He was a mama’s boy and now he is a complete mama's boy with his foster mom. He gives the best snuggles, makes the best biscuits and he absolutely loves to play with his brother Oreo. They hope to go to a home together, as they have become quite bonded over the past many months and look out for one another, but this is not a deal breaker. They are both also very good with other cats. Roscoe can be a bit shy at first with people he doesn't know but will definitely warm up to you quickly. He would do really well in a calm home environment along with another young playful cat and/or his brother Oreo, without young kids (under age 10) or rambunctious dogs. He has very mild Cerebellar Hypoplasia (CH), where he will lose balance slightly in his back legs while walking, it is almost unnoticeable and does not slow him down at all (scroll down to see his video). CH is not a medical condition that will cause him problems as he grows. We estimate that Roscoe was born in late May 2023. Kitty Bio 1506KL-Ro.

Story
Notes from the foster:I have had `Fraidy` since Dec 1, and she is SLOWLY opening up! She still hides under the bed a lot, but always comes out to eat in the kitchen, scurries past me, and sometimes I find her in the living room when I wake up. She doesn`t come up onto your lap by choice, but does meow like she WANTS to (but isn`t quite there with the full trust yet)!Every night she comes up onto my bed while I am laying down in the dark, and gives a cute `meow!` and allows me to scratch her chin, body, pet her, but keeps just the right amount of distance to be able to bolt in case a fast move or sound frightens her. She is slowly gaining trust! I have hope she will get better at it. She is afraid of toys, and does not come to a call, but she played on a handmade cat mat that is infused with catnip the past few days, and she likes to jump up on my window sill behind the curtain. She doesnt allow me to pick her up, or cuddle, but she sleeps next to me on the bed in her little bed. So it is getting better!

Story
Meet delightful Twinkie, our funny and playful girl with a zest for life. Twinkie has a unique charm - listen for her adorable little growl while she eats, showcasing her noisy yet endearing eating habits. She's a bundle of curiosity, always exploring her surroundings with wonder. And, of course, Twinkie has a major weakness for treats! She will even stand up on her back legs to get closer to her treats as they are being handed out. If you're looking for a lively and amusing companion, Twinkie is the perfect choice. She needs to have a cat friend among her new family, as she loves to play and cuddle with her foster kitty companions, Ziggy and Bubba. She hasn't been around dogs, and she does well with older kids (8 yrs and up). Estimated birth date is early Sep-2023.

Bubba is all about playtime and activity, always ready to engage in a game or explore his surroundings. He's not just playful; he's also a BIG fan of being brushed, enjoying the attention and care. His purr is bigger than he is, and his motor starts instantly when you brush or pet him. Bubba's gregarious and sweet nature make him an awesome companion. He very much enjoys treats, especially the squeeze-up goo kind. Bubba gets along great with the older foster kitties who share the same space and is often found napping with at least one of them. He is fostered with his siblings Ziggy and Twinkie. He hasn't been around dogs, and he's done well around older kids (8+). Bubba will want to have a feline friend at the home he goes to. Estimated birth date is early Sep-2023.

I'm Vinnie! I am a very affectionate boy who loves chin scratchies and hugs. I might enjoy a quiet home best, but I am pretty adaptable. I have something called Feline Herpes Virus. It doesn't bother me much, it just means I might do some extra sneezin' and sometimes have goopy eyes. If you're looking for a kitty who loves to kick back, sunbathe, and accept lots of attention from his peoples, look no further. Primary Color: Grey Tabby Weight: 8.16 Age: 1yrs 1mths 3wks
