Domestic Shorthair kittens & cats in Crafton, Pennsylvania

Its hard to believe but Pepper arrived at our rescue in 2019! She is the longest resident at Animal Advocates and all of the volunteers at the rescue would be overjoyed to see Pepper thriving in the loving home she deserves. Pepper had been taken care of, along with a number of other cats, by a local rescuer until the time a house fire caused her to evacuate. Most of the cats in the group were brought to the rescue where they were eventually adopted. Pepper presented as the most challenging of the group as she was extremely wary of people at first. However, with patience and lots of positive reinforcement, Pepper has come a long way! The way to Pepper's spicy heart is through treats and playtime. She will come out to play with wand toys and accepts treats and pets from her favorite volunteers. Pepper requires a home with experienced cat people who will show her love, consistency and accept her for the cat that she is. Our team is happy to discuss with approved applicants the possibility of a long-term foster placement for Pepper. In a long-term foster placement the goal is to connect special animals with individuals in the community who are interest in caring for a pet. The rescue will provide supply and vetting support as needed. In hopes of bringing awareness to the many deserving cats searching for homes, volunteers at Animal Advocates have sponsored Pepper and covered her adoption fees. All cats are up-to-date on age/weight appropriate vaccines, exams, FIV/FeLV tested (negative), flea treated, dewormed, spayed/neutered and microchipped. If not completed at the time of adoption, any remaining initial vetting will be covered by the rescue. Apply to adopt! Information located at animaladvocates.net

Is a 15 pound cat too big to sit in your lap? Scout certainly doesn’t think so! Scout is the kind of cat who makes his presence known immediately, usually by asking for pets, attention, and as much closeness as possible. Scout absolutely loves his people and wants to be involved in every part of their day, whether that means curling up beside you, rubbing against your legs for attention, or staring at you expectantly until you give him the pets he believes he deserves. He has a big personality, a lot of charm, and an endless supply of love to give. Scout shares a close bond with his best friend Harper, and the two are looking for a home together. While Harper is the calm and steady half of the pair, Scout brings a little extra spark and personality that makes them such a fun duo. He’s social, expressive, and full of charm, with a presence that keeps life entertaining and full of affection. Because Scout becomes so enthusiastic about attention, he can sometimes get overstimulated during petting and may nip or grab at the hand petting him. He’s looking for a patient, cat-savvy home with someone who understands feline body language and can recognize when he needs a short break to reset. With the right person, Scout’s quirks are easy to manage and are simply part of what makes him unique. Scout has so much love to give and will thrive in a home that appreciates his affectionate, spirited personality while respecting his boundaries. Together, Scout and Harper make a deeply bonded pair full of companionship, comfort, and character. 
 Scout would likely do well in a home with older or cat savvy kids. We haven’t had a chance to observe him around dogs, but a chill, older dog companion would probably be ok too. Scout is approximately three years old. He is up-to-date on vaccines, exams, FIV/FeLV tested (negative), flea treated, dewormed, neutered, and microchipped. Apply to adopt!

Nyah is a young adult dilute torbie with a big personality to match her beautiful coloring! She’s sassy, confident, and absolutely knows what she wants, and she’s not shy about letting you know it! Underneath all that sass is a very affectionate girl. Nyah loves attention and enjoys being loved on, but she’s a “terms and conditions apply” kind of cat. When she wants affection, she’ll happily soak it up; when she’s had enough, she’ll let you know. Her future family will need to appreciate a cat with opinions and respect her boundaries.

 Nyah isn’t the biggest fan of sharing her space with other cats, so she may be happiest as your one-and-only. That said, she could potentially do well with a calm, well-mannered cat (especially a male cat) who understands her need for personal space and isn’t looking to be her new best friend immediately. 
We haven’t seen Nyah around dogs yet, but given her attitude around the other cats, she might not be too pleased to have canine company. Nyah would probably also feel overwhelmed in a house with very young children, but older, cat savvy kids would probably be ok! 
If you’re looking for a cat with charm, sass, affection, and plenty of personality, Nyah might be your girl. She’s ready to find someone who will appreciate her exactly as she is—a beautiful little diva with a whole lot of love to give. Nyah is around 4 years old. She is up-to-date on vaccines, exams, FIV/FeLV tested (negative), flea treated, dewormed, neutered, and microchipped. Apply to adopt! Information located at animaladvocates.net

Meet Dave, a playful and loving cat currently looking for his forever home. If you’re looking for the perfect blend of affection and high energy, Dave is the cat for you! With his beautiful golden eyes and loving personality he is sure to win your heart. Dave is a very energetic, sweet cat who loves to run and play with his favorite toys. He is a bit rambunctious with quite impressive jumping skills... he could be part Ninja! After playing, he curls up in his caregivers’ laps and falls asleep. He has a ton of energy that is sure to bring a smile to your face and he will truly thrive in a home that can provide plenty of outlets for his spirited personality. Dave is approximately 2 years old. He seems to live comfortably with other cats at the rescue but can take time to make new feline friends. He is a joyful delight who will make a wonderful addition to the right cat-savvy household. All cats are up-to-date on age/weight appropriate vaccines, exams, FIV/FeLV tested (negative), flea treated, dewormed, spayed/neutered and microchipped. If not completed at the time of adoption, any remaining initial vetting will be covered by the rescue. Apply to adopt! Information located at animaladvocates.net

Meet Sylvester, a handsome tuxedo cat with lots of personality!

 Sylvester is the main character of whatever room he walks into. He’s outgoing, beautiful, and has the softest fur—and he knows it! He’s very people-oriented and enjoys human attention, especially if you happen to have wet food or treats to share! He LOVES to play—wand toys, laser pointers, and kicker toys are all favorites. Sprinkle a little catnip for extra fun! His antics and big personality make him a very entertaining companion. 

 Sylvester tolerates but doesn’t necessarily *enjoy* the companionship of the other cats at the shelter. He would thrive as an only cat, but he’d probably do ok with a friendly and well behaved cat companion or two with the right introductions. We haven’t seen him interact with dogs or young children, but based his big personality and outgoing nature, he’d probably do ok in a house with either.

 Sylvester is around 2 old. He is up-to-date on vaccines, exams, FIV/FeLV tested (negative), flea treated, dewormed, neutered, and microchipped. Apply to adopt! Information located at animaladvocates.net

Say hello to George! This handsome young man is a gentle soul with a sweet personality and just a touch of shyness when meeting someone new. He may take a little time to warm up, but it won’t be long before he’s showing you what a lovely boy he really is. Once George gets to know you, his sweet side shines through. He’s easygoing, affectionate, and simply enjoys being around the people he trusts. He’s not looking to be the life of the party—he’s much more interested in finding a person who appreciates his gentle nature and lets a friendship develop at its own pace. In fact, George is a little bit of a couch potato! Give him a comfy bed or a sunny window ledge and he’ll happily lounge and nap the day away. George also enjoys the company of calm, friendly cats, so he could be a wonderful addition to a peaceful multi-cat home. We haven’t seen him around dogs yet, but a calm, cat savvy dog would probably be ok too.
 If you’re looking for a sweet boy with a gentle heart and a little personality to discover, George could be just the guy for you. Give him a chance to say hello, and you may just find your new best friend! George is around a year old. He is up-to-date on vaccines, exams, FIV/FeLV tested (negative), flea treated, dewormed, neutered, and microchipped. Apply to adopt! Information located at animaladvocates.net
