He was adopted as a young cat, and sadly his person passed away. When he first came back to rescue, he was terrified. It took weeks of daily treats and soft words for him to feel safe enough to come down from his high spot. Now his true personality is coming out, and it's a beautiful thing! He's cuddly and sweet, and he adores other kitties despite being an only cat. His first meeting with one of the resident cats was full of head butts and purrs!

Kindle is about 5 1/2 years old as of November, 2025.   His intake picture shows the need for his rescue! He's been with us in rescue since March of 2025 and we have treated and helped him physically recover from the critical condition in which he was found. Kindle and a feline buddy (Sammy) showed up on a farm. Their story to that point is not known. Sammy had been shaved in what appeared to be professional cut and Kindle's hair appeared to have been cut yet not shaved. Sammy was not as physically ill as Kindle was, yet before we could get to help them, Sammy was hit by a car and humane euthanasia was required. We were so sad about Sammy, yet we were so happy to still be able to help Kindle. He's now neutered, vaccinated and healthy yet the trauma from whatever occurred to him mentally remains. He is a very scared boy, non-aggressive and he needs a special home that is quiet where love and patience can be given for as long as it may take to let him trust again. This will take time and we are not certain to what level he will grow to; he may never be a lap cat and that's ok! From his foster: My sweet Kindle I’m not sure what his story is but I know that it broke his heart. He is not a true feral but resorted back to being scared of humans during his life. He loves to take churu treats from me and I have finally after almost a year earned his trust to see his demeanor change from scared to calm during pets. He's absolutely stunning! He's not happy in rescue and we know he will move forward and thrive in a home. He sure deserves one; he's lucky to have survived.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.All of our cats have been spayed or neutered, vaccinated, de-wormed, microchipped, and tested for FIV/FeLV.

This girl loves all types of toys but her favorites are anything with a scratching post and, of course, catnip! LOL! Pammy, as her foster Mama calls her, will need a quiet place to herself to decompress and relax in her new home until she feels safe and secure. She will need lots of patience and time with her new family to show her how much she can trust and enjoy her forever home. Pammy would do very well to have a companion cat to show her life isn't scary and how to have fun in her new home. &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.All of our cats have been spayed or neutered, vaccinated, de-wormed, microchipped, and tested for FIV/FeLV.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hi my name is Francie.  I'm a very typical calico female.  I'm hissy and a diva at first but once I get to know you I warm up.  I'm very independent, and like to play with my toys.  I like other kitties but love being the princess as well and doing my own thing.  I would be fine with another young kitty but would be best paired with a sibling I am already used to.  I might not do well with little kids but should be fine with older, respectful ones.  And I could possibly learn to tolerate a calm, respectful dog as well.  I am fixed, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped. Her adoption fee is $200 ($350 if adopted as a pair) To adopt Francie, fill out an application at www.kakf.org/formsVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.December 15, 2025, 3:45 pm
