You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Asoka is a wonderful orange and white female cat. She loves to play and is a great adventurer. She even plays fetch! She plays well with her foster brothers as long as they don't get too crazy. This little girl was born with spinal deformities, but they don't slow her down. She does hop like a bunny but she is quick!  She does occasionally have accidents but her foster mom has found ways to minimize those! She may require more care as she ages (like diapers) but she is worth the effort.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet. October 2, 2023, 5:51 pm

Hi, my name is Clara.  I was adopted from KSC as a kitten with my brother but my family recently returned me because my brother was bullying me.  I am a sweet, active girl.  I know I gave the photographer fits trying to get my picture because I wouldn't sit still!  I can't wait to find a forever family who will love me and give me loads of attention and let me be their one and only pet.   Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet. October 2, 2023, 5:51 pm

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Hi, my name is Paola and I'm now at KSC after acclimating in a lovely foster home.  I was in an outdoor community of cats and a kind woman was making sure we had enough to eat.  Then it got pretty cold and she was worried about me in particular because I'm a small girl.  Since I spent most of my life fending for myself, I'm a bit cautious.  I did let my former caregiver pet me and my new foster mom would wrap me in a towel and cuddle me which was nice - it made me purr and I even 'made biscuits'.  I would sit next to my foster while she worked and I am making progress with humans - starting to learn that most are safe and kind.  Still, I'm a shy girl so I will need a forever home where my person(s) will go slowly with me.  I can't wait to have a place to call my own and a family to love me.  Oh, also, I think I would prefer a home without children or dogs that might scare me.  I do get along with other kitties, so a friendly pal might be nice.   Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet. October 2, 2023, 5:51 pm

My name is Sherman.  They tell me I’m a handsome, sweet boy.  Luckily for me, KSC rescued me from another area shelter where I wasn’t too happy with the noise and the dogs barking.  After all that chaos, I would really like a quiet home with just adult company and maybe some windows to look out!

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Hi, my name is Laria.  I came to KSC as a very young mom with my 4 babies who were only days old.  I was living in someone’s backyard and they called KSC for help.  I was taking good care of my kittens but was happy to have a safe place to raise them.  I am a very shy gal but have been enjoying the main room here at KSC with all the kitties.  I look forward to finding a forever home and think I would do well with a young, quiet male kitty as a friend.   Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet. October 2, 2023, 5:51 pm

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hi, my name is Grayson.  I’m often called little Grayson or Grayson 1 (as there is another Grayson here).  I’ve been at KSC a little while and I was super shy when I first got here.  Now I’m a very friendly guy who loves to get head rubs, wind around the caregivers legs and play with other kitties.  The only thing I don’t love is getting picked up.  I like to keep firmly grounded!  I would really like to have a playful kitty to pal around with at my forever home.

My wife and I adopted Muenster 16 years ago around the time we were married and long before we had our 3 children. Now with the busy schedule we simply don’t have time to give Muenster the love he deserves. He is a male cat, fixed, still with all of his claws. He has worn caps in the past but he’s also very good with a scratch pad if you keep them fresh. He’s been on a diet of Royal Canin as long as we can remember. He’s very playful and in great health. Looking for a happy home that will engage with him.

Cooper is an energetic young kitten who loves to play! We recently acquired him but are sadly unable to keep him. He deserves a great home... hope it's yours!
