This kitten was a stray along with his three siblings. I found them living in the storm drain near my apartment. Estimated age is a little over six months. He is already neutered and microchipped and up to date on his vaccines. He is healthy and well socialized. He loves to play with his kitten litter mates as well as with the group of older kittens and two adult cats I am keeping currently. Baby orange is ready to find his forever home!

Story
Meet this beautiful 8-year-old tabby girl 💚 She comes from a loving home and has been deeply cared for her entire life. She is a true “spicy” cat with a strong personality and isn’t shy about setting boundaries. Due to ongoing behavior challenges, especially with the recent addition of a newborn, her current environment is no longer the best fit for her or the family. She would thrive in a quiet, single-cat household with no children, where she can be the center of attention and feel secure. She needs an experienced, patient, and kind cat owner who understands that some cats need space, routine, and respect for their limits. With the right person and a calm home, she has the potential to be a loyal companion who can truly relax and be herself.

Story
Vera is an old lady looking for a quiet place where she can spend her days. She came into my possession when her previous owner passed away. I have done my best to tough it out, but my allergies are too much. She is about 13 years old. Vera would do best as the only cat in the home and preferably without dogs as well. She is very vocal and affectionate. She will love to sleep in bed with you as well

Story
Rocky got his name because life gave him a rocky start, but he is a true fighter. We found him at about 8 weeks old and learned from the vet that his back right leg was dislocated, his back left leg has nerve damage, and he has some spinal bruising. He was too small for surgery, so supportive care was recommended. The good news is Rocky is improving. He is starting to try to use his dislocated leg as it's healing, he gets around in his own way, and has a great quality of life. He is playful, curious, and loves his cat toys. He is not in pain and enjoys being a kitten. He is now about 4 months old. With time and support, he may be able to rely on one back leg, and if needed later, amputation of the non-functional leg could be an option. My mom has been caring for him, but due to asthma she is unable to keep him long-term. We are looking for a safe, loving indoor home that understands special care for this special needs boy.

Story
What can I say about Clair de Lune? She’s a funky monkey. She loves as much attention as you can give her. Playful and loving, she does like to nibble fingers and toes. Just tell her no and she stops. She has her friend, Rupi, and they chase and play hockey with little balls and toy mice. And of course, must have nightly zoomies. She eats well, not too picky. Her litter box manners are impeccable. I have 2 dogs that are used to cats and she gets along with them. If you want a fun loving love bug Clair is perfect! Rupi has really come out of her shell with Clair. They are ying and yang, complimenting each other nicely. Both sleep on my bed at night. Go read about Clair de Lune and see if you can find it in your heart to adopt them together. They get along with the foster's dog.. If you are interested in them, please contact our rescue family at MeowtownAR@gmail.com to arrange a meeting with my foster home!

Story
Terry has the most precious little expression of puzzled curiosity on his face at all times -- it is a remnant of the terrified look he started out his indoor life with (which earned him the nickname TerrorBeast!) But the look is now deceiving - Terry is learning that people are kind and having a family is such a great thing! Terry started life as a street kitten, hiding out in the shed of his foster family's house with his 2 siblings, Tsunami and Tuxedo. While he was initially the most terrified, he was also the first of the 3 babies to purr and he is just full of wonder at the love he gets daily! Terry will be a great companion to a family ready to give him unconditional love and patience. He loves to play with his siblings, so would happy to have one adopted with him - but also will do great with a home that has other cats he can bond with. He is still worried about the dog -- but a calm Dog Sibling would be great!! He gets along great with a ton of cuddling by his Foster teen human siblings, and would also be good with adolescent kids or toddlers with experience being gentle and calm. Born 4/29/2025 If you are interested in meeting me, please contact my rescue family at MeowtownAR@gmail.com to arrange a visit with my foster home!

This is a very sweet, lovable cat. He loves to play with straws, and he even will play fetch with a straw. He and his brother are both up for adoption.. It would be great if they could go together, but they would be fine by themselves.
