Story
String & Greensleeves are a bonded pair, male and female respectively. Currently both 13-years-old and adopted as feral kittens, they bonded in the shelter and have been inseparable since. Both are super affectionate towards people in their own ways. String is very outgoing, loves attention, being held, and sitting on laps. Greensleeves is comparatively shy, but if you sit for more than 30 seconds she'll come right to you and enthusiastically loves pets. Both are super sweet and docile. Apart from sleeping, both enjoy spending time with their people, whether that's just sitting with you or playing games with toys. String is the more active of two, and still gets the zoomies despite his years. They are indoor cats, so they like exploring their homes and hanging out by open windows. The ideal home has people who love them.

Story
🐾💕 Hi, we're Fawkes & Maple, and before we tell you anything else, there's one thing you should know... We're best friends, and we're looking for our forever home together. 🏡❤️ We both started life as strays and came to Kitty Connection at different times. Eventually, we found a home... and that's where we found each other. When unexpected circumstances brought us back to rescue, we lost our home, but thankfully, we didn't lose one another. 💞 🐱 I'm Fawkes, a 5-year-old gray-and-white gentleman with one eye and a heart full of love. I've overcome a lot, including losing an eye and having dental surgery, but those days are behind me now! These days, my favorite things are snuggles, naps, and making sure Maple feels safe and loved. 💙 🐱 And I'm Maple, a 10-month-old tabico girl with a playful spirit and a gentle soul. I was born outside, so learning to trust people has taken time. I can be a little shy at first, but every day I get a little braver. My favorite things? Wand toys, zoomies, and curling up next to Fawkes after a busy day of play! 🎣✨ 💕 Fawkes is my safe place. When I'm nervous, he's right there beside me. He helps me feel brave enough to take the next step and reminds me that I'm never alone. Together, we're the perfect pair: one part cuddle bugs 🥰, one part playtime experts 🎉, and 100% devoted to each other. 💗 We're looking for a quiet, patient home where we can continue our journey together. Maple may need a little time to settle in, but with love, understanding, and Fawkes by her side, she continues to blossom every day. 🌸 💖 We've already found our best friend in each other. 🏡 Now we're hoping to find our forever family. ✨ Could that be you? ✨

Story
Hi, I'm Estrella, a gentle soul with the softest fur you'll ever touch. I'm 10 months old and I take my time warming up to new people and places. I won't rush over to greet you at the door, since I like to watch and wait before I trust. But once I decide you're safe, I change completely. It took my foster parents just a few days of consistent playing and gentle petting before I let my guard down, and once I did, I turned into a rambunctious kitten exploring every corner of the house. That spunky side only comes out once I trust you, so a little patience (and a lot of playing) goes a long way. Once I'm comfortable, I'm anything but reserved. I follow my foster parents everywhere and love lying at their feet while they're at their desk, bunting my head up and purring for pets. And when the wand toy comes out, shy Estrella disappears completely, replaced by a cat who's sprinting and leaping and never quite ready to stop. My fur seals the deal. It's bury-your-hand-in-a-cloud soft, and once you get a petting session with me, you'll understand why everyone makes such a fuss. I'm steady, sweet, and low-maintenance. I'll never scratch or hiss, but I do need calm, predictable surroundings and a patient person willing to spend consistent time with me. Once that trust is built, you get more than a soft, purring lap cat. You get a spirited, playful girl who finally feels safe enough to be fully herself. I'd do best as an only cat, with someone who can be home with me more often than not.

Story
Hi - My name is Ellie and I’m a sweet and shy 3 year old female tabby. This is my second time with Kitty Connection. My original adopters didn’t feel like I was a good fit anymore so I’m back with Kitty Connection and looking for people who are patient and kind. I start off spicy, but I’m just afraid. Once I settle in, I love being around quiet humans and my foster mom’s quiet cats. I was originally in a home with a male kitty who had a lot of energy and that was too much for me. I love to play, but mostly by myself at night – although sometimes I’ll play with a wand toy with my foster mom. Her cats come in to say hello and then they go about their business which is just fine with me. I like to see them interact with my foster mom as it assures me that she’s a safe person. I think I’d like a home with other quiet and mellow kitties who don’t mind if I do my own thing. I wouldn’t like a home with a lot of people or kids who make a lot of noise and dogs are probably not something I would be comfortable with. Check out some of the videos my foster mom has taken. I tend to be afraid the first few minutes she’s with me and then she offers me a treat and I remember I like her. She’s very patient and tells me I’m pretty.

6-23-26 Luca is the sweetest little baby! A perfect kitten; he loves people and is already a lap cat. A curious little guy who loves to play and explore. He is neutered, tested and vaccinated and wormed. We think he would do best with another feline companion. And would do best with gentle children. PLEASE EMAIL US FOR AN APPLICATION!

Story
5-19-26 Pickle is a beautiful, shiny and sleek mackerel tabby with short black fur and silver stripes. His white chin, chest and feet are adorable! These pictures don't do him justice, but he's only about 10-12 months old - and almost always in motion! He does have his down time, can be super mellow and he'd be a great companion for a person-but with other cats he can be aggressive and he's young and plays rough. He was found wandering and hungry on the city streets, so we think he may do better as an only cat. He was just neutered, tested negative for diseases and vaccinated. PLEASE EMAIL FOR AN APPLICATION!
