Persian kittens & cats in Monroe, Michigan

This poor cat just can’t seem to catch a break. 💔 Originally bought from a breeder, he soon found himself living outside. For at least three months he tried to make it on his own as his long fur turned into tight mats, as he was attacked by another animal and dealt with the resulting infected bite wound the best he could, and as he eventually made it back home only to be promptly surrendered to animal control. That was actually the best thing that could have happened to Applejack though. His fur was maintained, and his wound treated. He found people he mattered to — shelter volunteers. Then came the next blow. He tested positive for Feline Leukemia (FeLV). According to his surrender sheet, he’d never been provided vaccines by his owner. FeLV is an infectious virus that weakens a cat’s immune system making them susceptible to secondary infections, cancers and other diseases. It is easily transmissible to other cats through close contact. What does this mean for Applejack? He’ll be retested in 30 - 60 days to confirm he truly has FeLV. If he is truly positive, he will need a home as an only cat or only live with other cats with FeLV. We wish we could say stories like this rarely come up, but that wouldn’t be true. Applejack is one of multiple homeless animals (this week alone) that have been provided the healthcare they need by Pound Pals Downriver. We are eternally grateful for PPD, our volunteers and our supporters. ❤️ Online Cat Adoption Forms: : https://wacshelter.com/adopt-a-cat/ Website for general questions: www.wacshelter.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/wacshelter/ Email: wacvolunteers@gmail.com ** Be sure to check out our FACEBOOK page for day to day updates on our cats and dogs.

Meet Laszlo, Lyrica, Lotus, and Loxley These adorable kittens got their start as part of a TNR project and have since shown just how wonderful indoor life can be! Now safe, social, and thriving, they’re ready to leave their outdoor beginnings behind and find loving forever homes.

🌟 Meet Scarlet & Mufasa – A Beautiful Bonded Pair Looking for Their Forever Home 🌟 Scarlet (aka Scar) is a stunning gray, long-haired girl with a unique look and a big heart. She has one eye, but that doesn’t slow her down one bit—she’s incredibly intelligent, observant, and always aware of what’s going on around her. Once extremely feral, Scarlet has made tremendous progress and is now steadily warming up to people. She does wonderfully with other cats and is still learning how she feels about dogs. One thing she knows she loves? Treats. Mufasa is her handsome, fluffy orange brother with a cute little stubby tail. He also started life as a feral cat, but once he discovered the magic of treats and gentle humans, he blossomed. Mufasa is friendly, sweet, and gets along beautifully with other cats. He’s a dry-food fan, while his sister prefers wet food—perfect balance! These two share a strong, loving bond and must be adopted together. They’ll need a patient, calm, indoor-only home willing to give them the time and space they need to adjust. Once they feel safe, Scarlet and Mufasa will reward you with trust, companionship, and the gentle love only formerly feral cats can give. 🏡 If you’re looking for a pair of resilient, beautiful cats who will flourish with kindness, Scarlet and Mufasa might be your perfect match.
