🐾 WELCOME HOME! 🐾 Bringing Your New Kitty Home: What to Expect Thank you for adopting and giving this kitty a second chance! Here’s what you need to know for a smooth transition: 🛏 Start Small Set your cat up in one quiet room with a litter box, food, water, and a hiding spot (like a covered bed or cardboard box). Let them explore slowly and on their terms. ⏳ Give Time Even the friendliest cats may be shy at first. Expect 3 days to decompress, 3 weeks to settle in, and up to 3 months to fully adjust. Be patient—they're learning to trust! It’s normal for cats to hide for the first 24–72 hours. Adult cats, especially, may take even longer to feel safe. As long as they’re eating, drinking, and using the litter box, hiding is okay! 🍽 Feed & Hydrate Keep food and water dishes in a quiet, accessible spot. Follow any diet info provided. Monitor eating, drinking, and litter box habits the first few days. 🚽 Litter Box Basics Show them where the box is right away. Keep it clean and use unscented, clumping litter unless otherwise noted. 🐱 Interactions Let your cat come to you. Avoid loud noises or too much handling early on. Use gentle voices and slow blinks to build trust. 🐕 Introducing to Other Pets? Slow and steady wins the race! Keep your new kitty separated at first and take your time with introductions. 🧸 Playtime & Enrichment Interactive toys, scratching posts, and window views help relieve stress and build confidence.

Story
🌧️✨ Meet McIvy & McRain — two soft little sisters looking for a quiet place to bloom. ✨🌧️ McIvy (black) and McRain (grey) are 5-month-old sisters with hearts full of sweetness… and just a sprinkle of shy. They’re gentle, tender souls who want to trust, but the world still feels a little big and loud to them. These girls aren’t bold, in-your-face kittens — and that’s okay. In the right home, with patient people who understand that being a bit socially awkward is totally valid, these two will blossom at their own pace. 🌱💕 What they do love: 🖤 Soft whispers and slow blinks 🤍 Feather toys that flutter magically in front of them 🖤 Snack time (their love language) 🤍 Curling up on cozy blankets with their super-soft fur McIvy and McRain would thrive in a calm, quiet home where trust can grow naturally and gently. They can be adopted together for double the gentle sweetness, or individually if your home is ready to help just one blossom. With patience, kindness, and a little time, they’ll show you their sweetest selves — the soft purrs, the gentle nudges, the quiet devotion that feels extra special because you earned it. If you have room in your heart for one (or two!) tender spirits who just need someone to believe in them, these sisters are waiting for you. 💛 Email adoptions@savedbyzade.com

Story
Mitzy Whiskerbean is the equally sweet and slightly bashful sister of Dottie, with a soft spot for other cats and a gentle, curious spirit. She’s not the first to dash out and greet strangers, but she watches everything with wide eyes—and when she feels safe, she starts to shine. Mitzy has been learning how to cat in foster care and did beautifully—she just prefers to take things slow. Like her sister, she is sweet but just a little unsure. She blossoms around feline companions, so she’s looking for a home with a friendly cat buddy to help her feel brave. If you have room in your heart for a soft-spoken kitten who’s still building her confidence, Mitzy Whiskerbean is ready to take that journey—with you and your cat as her guides. Adoption Fee $150 Email adoptions@savedbyzade.com https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ZADE/Cat *Because rescue cats do not come from breeders with specific backgrounds, the description is our best estimate of breed & is not guaranteed. *SBZ requests that adopted kitties be taken to your private vet to be established right away as moving around can be stressful- even if it's good stress- and cause reactions in their immune systems. *If you have dogs and other kitties, please make sure to do a slow introduction so they can learn about each other.

Story
Meet Percy! The most solid, strong guy around. Percy is perfectly named as he has the Best Purr! Percy is litter continent, great to hug and is independent. He would never be identified as a needy pet. Give him some loving and he is good for the day. He is perfectly content in a quiet setting where he can be the King of the Castle without any other pets or children. He does well with being in his own space away from children or pets who are visiting. He enjoys his food, sitting in the sun, taking a cat nap with you and watching the outdoors from his cat tree or fully encased balcony. He is 7, neutered, micro-chipped and has immunization records. With enough food and water, Percy has done well when I have been away from home for a few days. He presently needs a new home as our family circumstances have changed and he does not get along with other pets or children. Do you have the heart and circumstance to give this special guy a new home? #Healthy, Great Mouser, Quiet home
