Female, Senior

Kansas City, MO

Details

Good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs special attention, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Whismur was found in the snow of Roeland Park in 2013, emaciated and pregnant. She is a survivor in every sense of the word. Because of her rough start, she has a big heart and a powerful voice - she never wants to be overlooked again. She is is a world-class snuggler who will melt her entire body into yours, climbing up your chest just to be closer to you. Because of her early trauma, she is never quiet about her needs. She will let you know exactly when it's time to eat, snuggle, or play. She needs a home where her chatting is welcomed as part of her big personality. She has a deep obsession with food and needs an owner who can provide unlimited access to food or a consistent feeding schedule/automatic feeder to help her feel secure. She still has the spirit of a kitten and loves to play every day. She is high-energy and plays hard so she would do best in a home with sturdy furniture or someone who doesn't mind a bit of "character" in their decor. Toys, cat tree, etc included.

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

We have struggled with the decision to rehome our sweet, cuddly boy, Noodle. He is a wonderfully loving cat who LOVES humans and is good around kids. He does very well with other cats, as well. He is about 9 years old, up to date on shots, and healthy. He is an indoor cat and litterbox trained. Unfortunately, he does not tolerate dogs. We have tried for 3 years to help him acclimate to our pooch, but the poor guy just won't have it. He has developed a compulsive grooming habit out of anxiety since the dog joined us. We've tried separating spaces and even anxiety medication, but he continues to be very nervous around and even aggressive toward our dog. Sadly, this has created enough conflict in our home that it is impacting our relationship with him, and we think it is most fair to him to be in an environment more suitable for his personality. The perfect home for him would be a house with or without cats, with humans who enjoy a couch companion!

Jellybean

Domestic Shorthair

(when grown) -

Details

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

Story

Jellybean is about 1 year old and FIV/FLV negative. He was found as a stray several months ago and has been cared for since. He was brought in since the neighborhood cats were bullying him. He adjusted to being in a home right away. He has been a very polite cat - he always uses the litterbox, he hasn't been messy, and is gentle with his paws. If he gets too excited and tries to play rough, a simple "ouch!" gets him to stop. Jellybean enjoys playing, but would much rather lay on your lap and receive lots of attention. He is a total love bug. We don't know if he has been around dogs but he was very interested in meeting and playing with our resident cats. He would probably do very well with other cats with a thoughtful introduction. We'd love to see this sweetheart find the perfect home where he will get plenty of attention and affection.

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

Story

Odin is the most loving, cuddly boy! He is about five months old. My senior cat is just a little too stressed out and I made the decision to find him a new home. He would do great as an only cat or with other cats (that aren’t cranky like mine). He has lots of kitten energy and loves to cuddle right on your shoulder. I’m so sad but I think this is the best decision in the long run! He’ll come with his litter box, some litter, food, treats, some of his favorite toys, and his cat tree!

Peggy Sue

Domestic Shorthair

Female, Adult

Gladstone, MO

(when grown) -

Details

Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

We inherited Peggy Sue from a family member in Feb 2025. Her name was Boe, she was stressed, fearful and lashed out at everything and everyone. At the time we had two other cats, she hid for three weeks. She finally bonded with me and became my shadow. She is quite the lap cat! I renamed her Peggy Sue because it fit. My husband and I hoped that she would eventually adjust to our quieter lifestyle and our multiple cat household. But she has not. She is so sweet with me, following me everywhere and wanting in my lap, but she only tolerates my husband, and she lashes out at the other cats, hissing and growling. It seems like her only language is hissing and growling! She needs to be the only pet in the household, ideally with one person that she can claim as her own. She needs someone who will be gentle and patient with her and tolerant of her quirks. Somewhere out there is her perfect home. Adoption fee is negotiable with right home.
