Story
Birthday: October 19, 2018 Special kitties and the people who love them deserve special treatment. That’s why Laurel has a watercolor portrait which will be given as our gift to the special person who adopts her. Laurel is sitting up high on her laurels!  This one-of-a-kind girl loves to tell you about her day and a story or two!  She's always striving to find new things to investigate just so she can tell you about it!  Always yearning for knowledge, this intelligent little lady will always wonder what's going on in the world!  Through her adventures, she's discovered the wonders of ping pong balls!  You can throw one around the house, and she will run after it like she was a cop chasing a jailbreaker!  She's climbing to the high peaks in her foster home and plays like she's a young kitten! Laurel will strike up a conversation with anyone!  It can be a person or another animal!  She doesn't mind calm, respectful puppy dogs; she also respects smaller animals, including rabbits and guinea pigs!  Initially, we thought that whenever she looked at the window and saw birds, she would talk to them as if they were buddies.  Little did we know that she was actually telling them off!  We guess she isn't much of a bird lover!  Though she is a social butterfly, Laurel wishes that her new home doesn't have any young children.  Plus, she wants to be the only cat in her household!  She's become a little "Regina" in her feline social circle, and we don't want any bullying to happen! Laurel is an incredibly active kitty!  It's hard to believe that this girl has diabetes!  She's currently under a special diet and given insulin twice a day to manage it!  If we weren't the ones administering it, we'd wouldn't have ever guessed!  We are starting to think she's too sweet for her own good!  Sure, she has an active side, but she also has a loving side!  She'll follow you around the house and stay close by your side.  She can't stand the thought of you being lonely!  In fact, she'd sit on your lap all day if you let her! Laurel's adoption donation is $50 which includes age-appropriate vaccines, dewormer, flea treatment, Felv/FIV testing, microchip, and spay.

Story
Birthday: April 25, 2021 Life in a dairy barn wasn't the easiest for Blue Bell.  She and two momma cats were spending their time nursing and caring for their kittens. Cows would accidentally step on baby kittens, and it just wasn't a way for a kitty to live their life. Thankfully, rescuers came to the barn to rehome the feline families to more safer environments. Blue Bell and her kittens were brought to LCCR, where the mama just finished nursing her litter.  Now that they are grown and ready to find homes, Blue Bell is hoping to do the same! She is as sweet as she looks! We don't know if its her maternal nature or being made with 100% pure sugar, but Blue Bell has earned her spot in the ranks of "Most Affectionate Kitty!" She doesn't mind other cats as long as they are laid back around her. She's been through a lot before coming to the rescue, and she deserves to be in a relaxed home.  She's an excellent biscuit maker and offers herself for any pettings you feel like giving her! The only thing she really wants is a home that will shower her with nothing but attention! Blue Bell's adoption donation is $115 and includes age-appropriate vaccines, dewormer, flea treatment, Felv/FIV testing, microchip, and spay.  If you would like more information on Blue Bell, please contact Denette at lovingcarecatrescue@gmail.com.

Story
Birthday: April 28, 2025 Dagger is an absolute unit of a girl, but the only thing that's bigger is her personality! She once lived outside as a feral kitty, but she was soon trapped and brought to LCCR alongside her siblings to find loving homes. She was incredibly shy towards humans, but now, she's slowly understanding that humans aren't so bad.  This girl runs on playtime 24/7.  There's never a dull moment with this rising star! Although, she does have quite a clumsy side to her that sticks out like a sore thumb.  It's all good though! It's all part of her charm! Her adoption donation is $135 and includes age-appropriate vaccines, dewormer, flea treatment, Felv/FIV testing, microchip, and spay. If you would like more information on Dagger, please contact lovingcarecatrescue@gmail.com.

Story
Birthday: November 1, 2021 Special kitties and the people who love them deserve special treatment. That’s why Punkin Pie has a watercolor portrait which will be given as our gift to the special person who adopts her. Punkin' Pie is just as sweet as pie!  Her loving behavior towards humans can make anyone coo in adoration!  It's a miracle that this girl loves humans this much especially after what she endured prior to her rescue.  Humans can be a cruel species, and she experienced it firsthand.  Kids would abuse her - hurt her for the fun of it.  One day, they wondered if the saying, "all cats land on their feet" held any merit.  They grabbed Punkin Pie, took her to the second story of a building, and threw her out of the window.  This fall caused her left leg to fracture.  Thankfully, she was retrieved by rescuers and received medical attention.   If you were to meet Punkin' right now, you'd never know that she met with such cruelty! Her leg is all healed, and she zooms all around the house like the Flash!  Not to mention she has the good looks and personality of a celebrity!  There's no denying that she's cute, but there are times where she can be a ham!  Toys are her go-to pastime!  Punkin' will carry them in her mouth like a child with a teddy bear.  She'll then give them to her humans to tell them its playtime!  She may not like being held, but she's starting to think she might!  She would love to be in a quiet, adult-only home, where she can be doted to the highest degree! Because of this, Punkin' wants to be the only pet in the household.  But that's an easy task! You won't need another pet if you have this lovebug waiting for you at home!  This girl is always with you through the thick and thin, and we have to agree, no one would have a better companion than Punkin' Pie! Punkin Pie's adoption donation is $115 which includes age-appropriate vaccines, dewormer, flea treatment, Felv/FIV testing, microchip, and spay.

Story
Birthday: May 28, 2014 Special kitties and the people who love them deserve special treatment. That’s why Spiro has a watercolor portrait which will be given as our gift to the special person who adopts him. Don't let this boy fool you: he's as spry as they come! While he may not be a lap cat, he will absolutely become your shadow. He loves to be near his person. He enjoys a quiet petting session and can also take one heck of a pet too! Spanks and full back rub downs get his motor-boat purr going.  If you're looking for someone who will be excited for your return home, look no further. Spiro is ready to greet you and create a "welcome home routine" of purrs and pets.    One of Spiro's all time favorite activities is to be brushed. He loves to rub his chin real hard into the wires and have his jawline brushed down past his shoulder, like a little kitty massage.  His favorite places to curl up are in the sun and near his person. He even curls up on a heating pad in the winter to sleep cozy and comfy. If a heating pad isn't available, sometimes he'll just make a little nest in your bed to rest while you're away.    This senior boy has so many cute quirks that make him... him!  Spiro's adoption donation is $75 and includes age-appropriate vaccines, dewormer, flea treatment, Felv/FIV testing, microchip, and neuter.  If you would like more information on Spiro, please contact Sarah at lovingcarecatrescue@gmail.com.

Story
Fractured left femoral headBeau was brought into care when he was discovered by a cat-lover when this sweet boy was crying outside her house. He was in rough shape to say the least.  His left hip wasn't working right, additionally, his tail was broken.  We aren't sure what happened to him, but once he was taken to a vet and had time to recoup, he is as good as any kitty.  He can run, climb, jump, and leap like any kitty, however, his poor little tail has become part of his adorable characteristics. It is believed Beau was born in June 2025.  Beau currently lives in a foster home in Palmyra with other kitties and 3 dogs all of which he gets along with. Beau is such a sweet little guy and one of the most affectionate kitties.  All he wants to do is nuzzle against your neck and he always loves to sleep with you at night.  He has a playful spirit and enjoys playing with the other kitties and loves his spring toys  His adoption donation is $135 and includes age-appropriate vaccines, dewormer, flea treatment, Felv/FIV testing, microchip, and neuter. If you would like more information on Beau, please contact lovingcarecatrescue@gmail.com.
