Tabby kittens & cats in Princeton, Minnesota

Lou is 3 years old and is in need of a new family, he is very friendly and loving cat. He loves to snuggle and play, is always up for a snuggle or scratch. He is house trained and loves people. He is being rehomed as we are moving and cannot take him with us. We love this guy and sad to leave him, he needs a good family to love him.

Simba is a 4 year old orange tabby. We took him and his mother in as strays and currently are outdoor cats that sleep in the garage at night. Simba has an alpha personality and does not like other strays. He is a great mouser and would make a great barn or shop cat. When he gets to know you he is very chatty and likes to be petted.

Josie is a very sweet cat and loves affection. We are only trying to find a new home for her because she happens to enjoy pulling up the edges of our carpet and pulling the threads out. Otherwise, she is really well-behaved and will be hard to give to a new home. But, we will as we can no longer tolerate the carpet pulling. When we have had a dog visiting the house, she is not aggressive, but will hide or keep her distance. She loves one of our other cats, and can be a bit moody with the other.

Meet Charlie and Kirkland — two sweet bonded boys who were dropped off at my home and instantly stole my heart. They’re absolute angels, but my two resident cats aren’t too thrilled about sharing space, so I’m hoping to find these two a loving home together. Charlie is the energetic one — he’s always on the go, playing nonstop and keeping life interesting. Kirkland, who’s about two months older, balances him out with a calm, cuddly nature. He’s a total lovebug who adores snuggling. They make the perfect pair: playful, affectionate, and full of personality. If you’re looking for two best friends who will bring joy, laughter, and endless purrs into your life, Charlie and Kirkland are waiting for you!

He’s would benefit from open spaces and high places. He would do best in a home without other pets. He loves pets and playing

Mett Flory! Flory was born to an abandoned mom cat in August 2024. This quiet, brown tabby female is friendly with trusted folks, avoidant of strangers, and is affectionate on her terms.

She enjoys brushing and likes to sit in front of you, watching you. She is treat motivated, Flory plays with cat toys by herself and interactive ones with you. She enjoys watching wildlife out the window. She has met kids and finds them too busy and active, so she hides. Flory would enjoy another cat for a companion after proper introductions. She needs a patient adopter willing to build her trust. She has fine litterbox habits and uses a scratching post. Siblings are available. This cat and others are available at Cat Tales Rescue.

He’s affectionate, loves to snuggle, and greets everyone with warmth and curiosity. He’s understandably a bit wary of dogs after being chased by one, but he doesn’t seem to mind cats at all. He’s a very chill, go-with-the-flow kind of cat who adapts easily to new environments. Quiet, calm, and relaxed even in the car, he’s the perfect easygoing companion for someone looking for a loving and gentle friend.

He has come so far and allows us to get close. He is starting to realize he is now safe and that there is always food and water so he no longer eats too much, too fast.   We have been able to pick him up and hold him for a little bit before he gets too scared. He is accepting head and chin scratchies and has showed us his motor! He is becoming more playful and no longer hides in the cat cave! With time, this little guy will make a great pet! And he has the cutest little face and showed us hit little meow now!  He’s come a long way in the short time we’ve had him!   Butternut is from stray surrender.

We highly recommend you consider bringing home two instead of one! Adopting kittens in pairs has been proven to be beneficial for cats’ emotional and behavioral well-being and greatly improves the likelihood of long-term adopter happiness as a result. Adopting more than one kitten also reduces the risk of “Single Kitten Syndrome” (also known as Tarzan Syndrome), a symptom of under-socialization during a kitten’s most formative weeks. Kittens who are under-socialized may develop aggressive tendencies toward both other animals and humans as they grow, creating lifelong behavioral issues for owners.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.October 30, 2025, 1:51 pm

He joined his two siblings, who we had rescued a few days earlier. Watching Pepper’s transformation over the past three and a half months has been amazing. From the start, Pepper adored his siblings and would happily lick treats off our fingers—but he made it very clear that he had no interest in being petted, picked up, or convinced to love us… at least for the first three months. Once his siblings were adopted, Pepper seemed to accept that he was stuck with us. Slowly, he began to let us pet him more and more—and then, one day, he even let us pick him up! Now that he’s realized what he was missing, he lives for affection. He loves cuddling on the bed and never stops purring. Pepper gets along well with other cats, is comfortable around dogs, and uses his litter box faithfully. This sweet boy is finally ready to find his forever home and soak up all the love he deserves for the rest of his life. Pepper is from a local impound.
