Snowshoe kittens & cats in Richardson, Texas

Hi, I’m Hobbes and I want to share my story. I was in a home before I was surrendered to Texas CARES. It was my one and only home and I was the star of the house, that is, until my family had a baby. After that, it seems I was set aside. The wonderful people at Texas CARES took me into their rescue but that is not where my story ends. You see, I am a very special boy and have had some pretty big ups and downs. In my foster home, I was having such a time using my litter box and no one could seem to figure out why I was going outside of it. They took me to the vet, where they ran tests and more tests. That wasn’t fun, because I am not a huge fan of going into the carrier (I told foster mom all about it on the ride) but I knew it was for my own good. My foster mom, along with the medical team, tried several different things. My food was changed, my foster mom used extra litter boxes, but I still would go outside the box. There was even a time where I heard talk of euthanasia. I’m not sure what that is but it sure didn’t sound good! I know my foster mom was so frustrated and really wanted to help me, but it was tough. Finally, foster mom and the medical team, along with the vets, started me on some different antibiotics and some medicine to help with my mental state. This seemed to be what was needed for me because I now use the litter box each and every time I need to go! So, you see, it took a little time, but I am finally ready to seek out a forever home. I will have to be on my special food, which helps prevent crystals in my urine, and I may have to be on my mental meds long term, but I take them like a champ. In fact, I don’t even think it’s medicine because it looks and tastes like a chicken treat. I enjoy my prescription food as well! I do get along with dogs and I have met my foster mom's cats but honestly, I’d probably prefer just to have my very own human to myself. I won’t be going up to the adoption center, so if you’d like to meet me and have a chat, my foster family will make arrangements for you to meet me! I really hope you will take a chance on me because I am a really wonderful boy and I am ready to be your best friend!  Medical:  Special Diet - He is now on CD Urinary food both dry and wet. Fluoxetine - Compounded Treat Chews - ordered monthly and delivered to his home. March 7, 2026, 11:01 am

This beautiful seal point girl has a gentle, sensitive soul. She’s still young and has always been on the timid side, taking her time to feel safe and comfortable. In quiet moments, her sweetness really shines. She has bonded closely with our older cat, but strays away from our playful kitten. I think she feels most at ease alone, but she may thrive in a home with another calm, friendly cat. With people, she’s shy at first and won’t come up for attention, but if she chooses to lay beside you, she’ll happily accept soft pets and enjoy your company. Our home is very busy and loud, and we’ve realized she just hasn’t been able to bloom in this environment. She needs a calm, patient home where she can build trust at her own pace. She’s a wonderful, quiet companion with so much love to give to the right person.

Dolly Purrton is a beautiful lynx point Siamese kitten who is looking for a loving forever home! This girl is a total purr machine and loves to make biscuits while her motor is running on high.  Dolly was found in a colony of community cats in east Dallas and was spayed as part of a TNR effort. Her finders quickly realized she was too friendly to go back outside and connected with RHS to get her into the rescue. She is a curious and super sweet little girl who loves attention and having a kitty friend around. Dolly will be happiest in a home with another cat to help show her the ropes, and we think she'd adapt quickly to a cat friendly dog as well.   Our Adoption Process: Meet the Adoption Criteria. Before you do anything else, make sure you meet our adoption criteria.
