Story
Meet Scar, the scrunkly little sweetheart with the biggest heart. He’s a three month old orange tabby who carries some facial scars from a rough start in life, but honestly, it just makes him more endearing. After surviving a severe injury as a newborn, Scar has grown into possibly the most affectionate kitten you’ll ever meet. If he could crawl inside your skin just to be closer, he absolutely would. He’s a constant purr machine, gentle with other cats, and especially bonded with Mufasa. If Mufasa’s the party, Scar’s the heart, the soft little glue holding the duo together. He still has a playful side though, too. Wand toys, crinkly toys, kicker toys are great for him. He’s neutered, vaccinated, litter trained, though he does best with a really big open litter box to give himself some space. And like his brother, he is looking for a forever home together with Mufasa. Scar is excited to grow, explore, and share lots of love with a forever family. Could that be you? If you would like to meet or learn more about him, please complete an adoption application on the Kitten Rescue Life website under the Adoption tab: https://kittenrescuelife.org/adopt.

Story
Meet Dorado! Dorado is a gentle, sweet, short-haired orange-cream tabby boy who believes that the best things in life are worth a little patience. While he might start off a bit quiet in new environments, he is a wonderfully chill little guy who takes life entirely at his pace. He likes to sit back and watch the world go by, but don't be fooled by his calm demeanor. He's a great conversationalist! He absolutely loves his food and treats, and his sweet meows are the perfect reminder that it's time for a tasty meal or a delicious snack! While he is generally relaxed, his absolute favorite hobby is playing laser tag! Watch him light up with excitement as he tracks and pounces on that elusive red dot. Once playtime is over and he knows he is safe, his true personality shines. He is an absolute sweetheart who will thank you with the sweetest purrs and loves snuggling up tightly with other cats. Dorado thrives in a peaceful, patient environment where he can build confidence. Because he loves other felines, he would do wonderful in a home with another friendly, confident cat friend to keep him company. He is excited to grow, explore, and share lots of love with a forever family. Could that be you? If you would like to meet or learn more about this kitten, please complete an adoption application on the Kitten Rescue Life website under the Adoption tab: https://kittenrescuelife.org/adopt.

Story
Zepplin is a fun and unique cat. We adopted him from Spot Saves Pets when he was a kitten. The other cats in our home do not like him and he gets picked on quite a bit. This has caused him extreme anxiety. We have worked with him over the years as my son favored him and they have a special bond. However, now my son is at college and Zepplin's anxiety level has sky rocketed. We don't have the capacity to give him the individualized attention he deserves. He is such a lover but needs a quiet home with humans only.
