We have 4 kittens looking for their new fur-EVER home(s)! There are 2 boys/2 girls.. though I may need to double check again for confirmation. They are VERY playful, smart and oh SO adorable to watch! They are eating dry food and have learned the litter box. They were born on September 10, 2025.. Cute lil nuggets; that are continuously learning day by day! It will NOT allow me to add more pictures or videos at this time. However, I can text new pictures if you're interested. *The mainly all "black/stripped" one (in picture #1) above Mama's head has been adopted.

Rascal is an awesome little kitten, he has been so great with my dog Mac but sadly it does not go both ways. I am looking to rehome Rascal so he can be free to play without upsetting other pets. My dog has not been aggressive towards Rascal but is visibly disturbed by his presence. Rascal deserves a great home!

Story
About us. We are a family of 8, and Leo was our first cat. I have 6 children ages 1-13. Leo does fine as long as kids know how to play properly with him. He is a kitten, and my kids still don’t understand that if you play using your hands, he will bite your hands. Unfortunately 2 of my 4 children (1 and 4 year olds) are not able to play properly. We have only had him for about 3 months and this is so sad, but we can’t keep him with young children who don’t understand kittens. About Leo, I picked him up at the animal shelter and knew he was the one because he was the only kitten purring at me. He is about 6-7 months old now. He loves to cuddle and sleep next to people, but if he is in the playing mode then he likes to be left alone or played with using cat toys. He purrs a lot and meows a lot. He was potty trained the moment we took him home at 4 months old. He had been to the vet (Firehouse) once for shots (deworming and leukemia), so he is due for another round.

Story
Our daughter adopted Nitro while in college and her post graduation job has her traveling too much to car for him. Unfortunately, we aren’t situated for a cat and I’m allergic. He’s a friendly cat that enjoys laying on people and being scratched. He’s needs to cuddle on his own terms and won’t be held long. He’s curious and loves climbing too.

Story
🐾 Meet Rome: Our Sweet, Special Boy in Need of a Home 🐾 Rome is a gentle, loving cat with hind limb paralysis who was fostered and adopted from the Williamson County Regional Animal Shelter when he was just a month old. He’s always been an indoor cat and loves fresh air, long pets, gentle massages, and cuddly naps. He has incontinence but can independently relieve himself. Our family has been dedicated to his rehabilitation plan, but sadly, we can no longer provide the level of care he needs. We’re heartbroken and hoping to find a patient, capable, and loving home where he can continue to thrive. If you have experience with special-needs cats—or the heart to learn—Rome will fill your home with love and gratitude. ❤️ Serious inquiries only please. Must rehome by Sunday, November 16th to avoid returning him to the shelter.

Story
Mia is a friendly and affectionate cat who I adopted as a stray about 4 years ago, along with her littermate Chloe. Unfortunately, I am being forced to move and I have no way to take them with me. I have until January 11 to find them a new, loving home. She is sweet and playful and has a lot of personality. She loves catnip and treats and will climb to get to them. She's talkative and will hold a "conversation" with you. She would do well in a home with other cats due to her playful and social nature.

These cats are in Austin, Texas too!

She has a gentle spirit and just needs a little patience as she transitions into her new home. When she's comfortable, she'll be your loyal companion, following you around with love in her eyes.
