Story
Persimmon is approximately 1-year-old of April 2023 whose shiny coal-black coat really stands out in a crowd!  He is a sweet-tempered and sensitive type who was scared of his new surroundings at first but within the span of 2-3 weeks, he was all over the house and coming around his foster mom for attention and scratches by his tail.  Lately, he has with the cold weather he has become quite the snuggle bug wanting to lay on his person's lap with his favorite foster sister almost every time she sits down.  He hasn’t been around dogs very much but I believe with a proper introduction of a friendly dog and lots of patience, it should not be a problem.  In addition, he gets along well with other cats both young and adults.  He would certainly enjoy a similar-aged or friendly adult cat to tussle with as he enjoys spirited playtime with his foster siblings, but he also plays independently quite well.  He comes to you litter box trained, neutered, FIV/FeLV negative, and with all age-appropriate vaccinations so contact Rock City Rescue to adopt this dashing young man!December 4, 2023, 12:11 am

Story
Hi, I’m Cortado, a striking 1-year-old (as of April 2023) boy. I started my life on the streets but just like a hot cortado, I am warming up to life as an inside kitty. I recently discovered how nice nighttime snuggles with the hoomans are! I love to play with my brothers, especially hide and pounce in the cat tunnel and chase toys that make noise. I love to be around kids and am great with other kitties and dogs once I get comfortable. Best of all, I’ll come to your home litter box trained, neutered, FIV/FeLV negative, and with all age-appropriate vaccinations. If I sound like the purrfect addition to your home, email rockcityrescue@gmail.com with your name and phone number. December 4, 2023, 12:11 am

Story
Bruno is a handsome and approximately 1-year-old (as of April 2023) cat that we all certainly need to talk about!   Not only does he have stunning eyes, a shiny coal-black coat with striking tabby markings underneath.  His body type is very slim and exotic akin to a Siamese.  He is a sweet-tempered soul with a playful personality and loves mealtimes, treats, playing hard, and sleeping on soft blankets or the cat tree.  He is a gentle soul who plays well with other kittens and gets along with adult cats in that he does not tend to pester them.  This boy plays independently quite well, but I think he would certainly enjoy a younger or active adult cat to tussle with if not a cat/kitten around his age. He can be a little shy with strangers and mostly gives his affection to people he trusts.  I believe he will blossom in an environment that will be patient with him.  He comes to you litter box trained, neutered, FIV/FeLV negative, and up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations so contact Rock City Rescue to adopt this unique boy.December 4, 2023, 12:11 am

Story
I'm Bane, and so good to meet you! I'm a very outgoing 8 month old (as of April 2023) fellow that loves to play with my litter mates, resident cats, and toys in my foster home. Despite my bold and inquisitive nature, I also know when it's time to snuggle! I enjoy nap time with my foster dad as well as my fellow kitty roommates. We also have two dogs in the home, so I am very used to a multi-animal household. I would love so much to get to play and romp with my very own kitty siblings and human(s) in my furever home. If you think you could provide a loving playful home for me, please apply to be my best friend! I come to you neutered, FeLV/FIV negative, and with age-appropriate vaccinations. For an application email rockcityrescue@gmail.com and don't forget to include your phone number!December 4, 2023, 12:11 am

Story
Luisa is an approximately 1-year-old (as of April 2023) cat who was rescued with her three litter mates snugly tucked in behind a flower box in an unsuspecting family's backyard.  She is short and stout with stunning tabby markings and some gorgeous big eyes!  She hasn’t been around dogs thus far in her life but I don’t think it would be an issue for her.  Not one not to pester a cat that doesn’t want to be bothered, but she adores her adult foster brother and is never far out of his shadow. She likes to be part of the action laying near her people and sleeping on the bed with them most nights but prefers pets on her terms.   I'm sure she would great companion for a lonely singular cat or a person who doesn’t try to push her too much with cuddling.  She comes to you litter box trained, spayed, FIV/FeLV negative, and with all age-appropriate vaccinations so contact Rock City Rescue to adopt this gorgeous girl. Email the cat's name and phone number to rockcityrescue@gmail.com.December 4, 2023, 12:11 am
