Story

He's two and a half and a dang sweetie. When I adopted him he came right up to me and has been friendly ever-since. Was a stray before I dopted him from the animal shelter. He gets along with other cats well and can entertain himself with his toys. He even plays fetch by himself! We're sure he'll be a great addition to your family.

Tia

Domestic Shorthair

Female, Senior

Durham, NC

Size

(when grown) -

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Tia is a striking tortie with varied interests: being adored, watching birds through the window, chasing laser dots, being combed and petted, playing with wand toys, and eating to name a few. She is funny, sweet, and has a mighty purr. Don't let her age fool you: she LOVES to play and sprints at high speed chasing after the laser dot. It took Tia a while to feel comfortable when she came to her foster home, but now -- while not a lap cat -- she wants to be within a few feet of her foster mom almost all the time. She is a wonderful companion who will do best in a calm, settled household without any other pets. To learn more about Tia, visit her website: https://pamassard.wixsite.com/tiathefostercat

Scout

Domestic Shorthair

Details

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Scout is a very chatty cat and loves to run around while announcing her presence. She is somewhat skittish, but loves to hang out in the same room as other people. She loves her cat tree, feather toys, her ribbon wand, and most other cat toys but, does not seem to understand cat treadmills. She takes a bit to warm up to you, but is a fairly cuddly cat. Scout can be somewhat skittish around other cats and seems to be afraid of smaller cats and kittens. Scout would be happiest as the only cat in the household.

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Meet Carrie of the Sour Patch kitties. The kitty trio, Pacino, Cash, and Carrie came to IAR from rough beginnings. They were quite spicy and sour earning them the nickname the Sour Patch kitties. And just like the gummies with time, patience, and love, their sourness has turned to sweet. All three love treats, crunchy and squeeze, catnip and silver vine, laser lights, moving play fish and snakes, toy mice, cardboard, and balls and ice on slick surfaces. They enjoy spending their mornings watching the birds take turns at the feeder and the occasional squirrel visit by the porch window. While these three have come a long way from hissing and hiding, they are still a work in progress. They show their love for you in small ways. Like Carrie loves to roll around in your dirty clothes at the end of the day as if it were a pile of catnip. Every morning she will greet you with headbutts and snuggles. Carrie loves to play with her siblings and has the softest fur. She love pretty much any "toy" even if it's just a piece of trash on the floor or the corner of the bathroom rug. Don't even get me started on wand toys (spoiler: I'm obsessed). There is never a dull moment with this trio. From late night hours of collective zoomies, to playing with rubber toys in the tub, to their cute quirkiness like Carrie's passionate meow for morning snuggles in bed. Carrie can be adopted as a single kitty to a home with an existing young, playful kitty. If possible and all three could stay together, your home will have the best of all kitty worlds :) Carrie is a striped brown/gray/black tabby. She has the cutest ear tips and and chunky feet. Carrie will do great in a home with other young cats because of her exuberiant personality. If Carrie is the perfect kitty for you please apply to adopt her!

Story

Gigi is a curious, adventurous lady who would love a home with lots of cats and maybe stairs she can use to zoom around. She will definitely let you know when she wants affection by rubbing all over your legs and hands and doing the cutest little flops with her belly up! When she's not zooming or asking for love, she likes to play with string toys and lounge in big warm windows. She would do well with or without a kitty sibling. If you're planning to introduce her to a new cat, slow and steady is the key with this vocal lady.

Story

Link is 5 years old and I have had him since he was a kitten. He is one of the sweetest cats you will ever meet. He is not shy around strangers and will go right up to you and sit on your lap if you let him. If you feel like cuddling, just call him over and he will happily sit on your lap! He is very affectionate as well as very energetic! He loves being pet and chasing toys. He loves doing "cat-acro" where I put him on my feet and he hangs out in the air! I am rehoming him only because I am about to be traveling full-time and unfortunately just won't be able to care for him.

This a very sweet kitten my son brought home after his girlfriends parents told her she could not keep it. We have two dogs and an older cat in our home, the kitten did not get along with the dogs, although I think they would become friends if given time but my older cat was immediately aggressive and I do not think this would improve at all. The Kitten is currently being kept separately in a spare bedroom, we are not able to keep him in our home
