Tabby kittens & cats in Overland Park, Kansas

We adopted Lucy in 2020, I think. Once she figures out that you feed her and give her treats, she will express her love for you and want to be pet and want to be near you, but she is not a lap cat USUALLY and can tend to be happy close to her safe room alone. She is low maintenance. Pretty. Quirky. It is hard to let her go.

Meet Scrappy 💕 Scrappy is a two-year-old beauty with a heart full of love. This sweet girl adores being petted and will happily soak up all the affection you’re willing to give. She’ll let you scoop her up briefly—and she’ll always come back for more pets and cuddles. Scrappy can coexist with other cats, and she doesn’t mind dogs. She’s happiest when she has her humans’ attention and would love a home where she can shine as the lovable companion she’s meant to be. Spayed and ready for her forever home, Scrappy is waiting for the right person or family to see her for the treasure she truly is. 📍 Kansas City metro (transport available) 📞 Call or text The Pet Connection at 913-671-7387 #AdoptDontShop #RescueCat #ScrappyCat #SweetCat #PetMePlease #AdoptScrappy #CatsofInstagram #thepetconnection #thepetconnectionks #melodyhuff

This is Carly, a sweet, beautiful ginger tortie tabby, who was adopted with her "sister," Kellyanne, about ten years ago by a wonderful couple who provided them with a warm and loving home. The girls were devastated when their human mom and dad both passed away in 2025. Carly is an affectionate, darling kitty who appreciates being petted and loved. She had congestive heart failure when she was returned to her caretaker after the death of her human parents last year. It's managed with medicine she takes several times a day. She lives with several other cats and absolutely holds her own, even protecting Kellyanne when the kitties try to bully her. (Kellyanne is physically healthy, and finding her a new home is very important because she is miserable in her current living arrangement due to the other cats picking on her.) While it would be wonderful to find a home willing to adopt both Carly and Kellyanne, we understand that is not likely to happen. Since the girls are NOT bonded, we are willing to adopt them separately to fabulous homes of their own. Call or text The Pet Connection at 913-671-7387 if you'd like more info on Carly and/or Kellyanne or are interested in meeting one or both of them. They are in the Kansas City metro, but transport might be available to the right home.

Handsome Cricket is a gray and black tabby with a story that reminds us just how resilient—and loving—cats can be. About six years old, Cricket showed up skinny and hungry on someone’s porch, hoping for kindness. He found it, but when he didn’t gain weight despite eating well, his new friends grew concerned. Luckily, Cricket sought help from exactly the right people: their mom and dad, who happen to run The Pet Connection in Beloit, Kansas! A veterinary exam revealed that Cricket has an autoimmune condition called stomatitis, which causes inflammation in his mouth and gums. Some of his teeth have already been pulled, and he may need more dental care in the future. Because his mouth can be sore, he’s sometimes a little picky about food—but he’s feeling so much better now that he’s getting the care he needs. What stands out most about Cricket isn’t his condition—it’s his heart. He’s incredibly affectionate and loves everyone he meets. He’ll tuck his head into your neck for snuggles, melting completely into your arms. Cricket adores being with people, soaking up attention. He even enjoys the company of other animals. ? The Pet Connection will help with the costs of Cricket’s ongoing care for his stomatitis, so his adopter can focus on what matters most—loving him. Cricket is ready for his forever home, where his sweetness will be cherished and he’ll always know he’s safe, loved, and home for good. >Kansas City metro (transport available) >Call or text The Pet Connection at 913-671-7387 Did you know? Feline stomatitis is a fairly common autoimmune condition that can usually be managed with dental care and stress-free living. Many cats—even those missing most or all of their teeth—go on to live long, happy, pain-free lives. #thepetconnection #thepetconnectionks #melodyhuff #adoptacat #tabbycat #rescuecat #catlovers #catrescue #fosteringsaveslives #adoptdontshop #catsoftiktok #catsrule #petfinder #adoptabled #catsofinstagram #catsoffacebook #beloitkansas #specialcat #catadoption

Zoomies, sass, and snuggles—Eve’s got it all packed into one gorgeous tabby package! Eve is one beautiful and fun girl—12 pounds of gorgeous brown tabby energy. Likely born around December 2023, she’s a young adult with a big personality. Eve loves to play and will happily keep going long after you’re ready for a nap. She’s a master of zoomies and can turn any room into her personal racetrack. Life is never boring with Eve around! Now, here’s the good news and the “real talk”: Eve has a mischievous streak when it comes to other cats. She’s not aggressive, just a little too good at pushing buttons and testing patience. Because of that, she’d thrive as the only cat in the home. Eve would be happiest with adults or possibly older kids who can appreciate her playful, sassy spirit. If you’re looking for a gorgeous, spirited, one-of-a-kind companion, Eve’s ready to keep you laughing, entertained, and loved. She's in the Kansas City metro, but transport is available. Call or text The Pet Connection at 913-671-7387 to meet Eve!

Simon (grey, 6lbs, 6yo) & Loaf (orange, 13lbs, 3.5yo) Wanting to keep these good step-brothers together, got Simon when I moved to KC 4 years ago from Wayside, and Loaf was found as a kitten at a gas station in Colorado about 5 months after adopting Simon, so Simon essentially raised Loaf. I will be moving to NYC and unfortunately cannot take my boys with me. They are cuddly, full of personality, low maintenance, and would thrive in an environment where they can play and have more space with people who can be home with them more often than I am. I will provide cat bowls, litter box/mat, 2 beds, some toys, double cat carrier, and of course every picture I’ve ever taken of them. Would love to have you meet them and see if you’re a good fit, thank you :)
