Not good with kids, Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Hi there, I'm Olivia and I am 3-years-old. I am a darling, brown tabby, girl who came to the shelter with my siblings and a group of my friends. Since then I was adopted out as a single cat and returned. I was very stressed in my previous household to the point where I was uncomfortable with the kids and stopped using the litterbox. Since coming back to TAPS I have reconnected with my human friends, am feeling much better, and have even gone to live in a nice foster home. I still occasionally miss just the edge of the litterbox but am doing much better. I am much more relaxed, playful, and enjoy toys or a cat tree to lay in! I am also cuddly and a BIG fan of food! I am a soft and sweet girl. If you think I could be the girl for you, please fill out an application online and my foster mom would be glad to bring me for a visit and sing my praises!

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

2 years.....not only is that how old Violet recently turned, but that's also approximately how long she has been at TAPS. Violet wants all of your love and attention and is actually very affectionate she just doesn't fully know how to express it. She unfortunately never learned how to properly socialize since she didn't grow up with her littermates so her excitement gets the best of her sometimes and then her teeth get involved with a few love nibbles. She is a staff favorite because of her sassy, playful personality and we believe In the right home where she is the only pet with the right UNDERSTANDING human(s) this sweet baby will thrive and become the cuddly cat we all know her to be! If you have the patience and thick skin to work with Violet, please complete an application online at tapsshelter.org.

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Hi, I'm Tigress, I'm 1 12 yrs old, and I'm what they call a Torbie. That means I look like a tabby cat, but I have apricot coloring also which makes me part Tortoiseshell, too! All that to say is I am gorgeous and very regal looking. My siblings and I were born outside and we didn't have much human contact until we were a few months old so I am slowly coming out of my shell. It has taken months to get me to this point. Somehow, I have decided that I occasionally like to go belly up so my foster mom and dad can rub my belly. Yet, I still will run away if I am not ready to have petting and affection. Just like all of my siblings, I do not want to be alone. I need one of my siblings or another kitten to help comfort me and be my friend. I love treats, toys, and I also come around if I hear rustling to see if it's a treat for me. I am looking for a patient new family to help me with trust and lots of love. If you think I could be the girl for you, please fill out an online application, so we can meet. Let's find out if we can be that perfect fit!

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Hi there, I'm Dawn and I am 3 years old. I am a gorgeous dilute tortoiseshell girl. I came to TAPS harboring a little secret...I was expecting! I have been living with a foster family since! My foster mom has this to say about me: "Dawn came to live with us 12 months ago. She raised 5 sweet baby kittens who have all now been adopted. She loves people, but not other animals. Given enough time, she might get along with another cat, but she does not like dogs. She is a beautiful cat that deserves a loving, patient, quiet home of her own. The family that chooses her should be prepared to buy extra toilet paper. She loves nothing more than toilet paper parties!" If you'd like to meet me, please fill out an online application so my foster mom can make that happen for us!

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Kyra is an estimated 6 year old cat that entered the shelter system when her owner passed away. Kyra is currently in a kennel because she does not like to be approached by the other cats but she was raised with another cat so with time, space and appropriate introductions in a home, we believe she would adjust. Her surrender form reports that she is good with children as well but as always, children should be respectful of her space and body languageAdoption Fee: $25Estimated Date of Birth: 3/15/2008Intake Reason: surrender, death of ownerAnimal will be spayed and up to date on vaccines, and microchipped prior to adoption.

Story

Puma was one of my previous partners pets. She has been with me for a while but due to a new promotion I don't have the time to give her the attention she needs. She is a very loving cat and is happy being held. She loves snacks and treats of all kinds. She doesn't have any food allergies that I am aware of. Overall a good cat- she just needs someone with time to love her.

Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Jiji was a very loved cat, but had to be returned when her mom became ill. Ever since then she’s been very unsure about things. Sometimes this can come out in her hissing, but really she’s just very scared. She loves laying on or in a cat tree, especially by a window. While scared of new people are scary, when she does let you pet her she has the softest fur you’ve ever felt. She has beautiful eyes and the cutest face. Her previous adopter said one of her favorite things about her was how Jiji would start purring really loud just when she would look at her. There has to be someone out there who is patient and understanding, willing to let Jiji adjust to a new forever home.  Her $75 adoption fee covers her spay, vaccines, deworming medication, and flea/tick preventatives and microchip registration.
