Story
Binky aka Binks at a glance — age ~3, male, neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, litter-box trained, cat-friendly. Binks started visiting us this spring and returned this summer. After weeks of feeding him, treating his fleas and cuddling him outside, we realized how incredibly friendly he was—even around groups of friends. We assume he was someone’s pet at some point. We had him neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and treated for worms, planning to keep him only while he recovered. Two weeks later, he’s loving indoor life! He cuddles, loves being brushed, uses the litter box consistently, lets us trim his claws and is learning to play with toys. He can be skittish with loud noises but is quickly gaining confidence. He loves other cats and may do well with kids, though he hasn’t been around them. For his safety with one of our cats, he currently has his own area. He can stay with us as long as needed to find the right home. We want him indoors, with only supervised outdoor time.

Story
We found Mystery in a barn in April of 2025. He has always been very sweet and friendly to people. He's very cuddly and affectionate, especially when he wants food. He likes playing with stuffed mice and tennis balls, but is also happy to steal hair ties and whatever trash you leave around and play with those too. He's only recently figured out that he likes to lay in the sun and is still figuring out his relationship with sitting in boxes. He always uses the litterbox to poop but he inconsistently pees in it, electing to pee on the floor instead. It has gotten to a point where we have tried everything we can in our current situation. It is not a medical issue, and is purely behavioral. We suspect it has to do with an inconsistent schedule. He is a super sweet boy and we have struggled with this decision, and we want him to have a home that can deal with the good and the bad.

Story
Taylor was hit by a car as a very young kitten and lost his leg, but he doesn’t let that hold him back! He runs, jumps, climbs and plays like any other cat, and even uses his missing leg to his advantage as he skids around corners.   Taylor is great with dogs of all sizes.  He is extremely friendly with people     He’d love to have another playful cat (one who enjoys a bit of pouncing and rough and tumble play) in his forever home    *Taylor is neutered, FeLV/FIV tested, vaccinated and micro chipped. * Male - 4 years old * The amputation does not cause him to have any special needs  *  He has been diagnosed with crystals in his urine and needs to be on prescription food for the rest of his life (Purina UR).  The prescription food (approximately $90 per month) is needed to prevent a urinary blockage. * Adopters must live within 100 miles of Florence, KY * Our adoption application can be found on our website, www.pawprintsnky.comMarch 16, 2026, 12:18 am

Domino was born around the end of the first week of May. Not entirely sure it was a litter of kittens that were brought to the rescue as newborn needing to be bottle fed. She is absolutely lovely. She is currently in Harrison Arkansas but can be brought to you via the network transport. Please inquire to jetta.elliott@att.net.September 9, 2026, 8:26 pm

Meet Tulip !   Tulip is a sweet, shy little kitten who just needs a little time and patience to let her personality shine.

If you're willing to let her come out of her shell at her own pace, you'll be rewarded with a loyal friend who will blossom more each day.   Tulip is available for adoption through Lucky Tales Rescue. Her adoption fee is $125, which includes her being spayed, up to date on all age-appropriate vaccinations, and ready to start her new life with her forever family.   Could Tulip be the missing piece of your family? Apply to adopt her today! September 10, 2026, 9:06 pm
