Tabby kittens & cats in Belton, Missouri

Three months ago, we welcomed a beautiful little cat into our home, and she quickly became part of our family. She is an 18-month-old cat with the softest fur and the sweetest personality. She loves to cuddle, play, and be around people, and she has been wonderful with kids. She has so much energy, she runs incredibly fast, jumps impressively high, and loves to climb, always turning our home into her little playground. She is affectionate, playful, and full of life, and we truly enjoy having her with us. This decision is very hard for us, but due to my ongoing health issues and financial limitations, I’m no longer able to afford the care she deserves. I want to find her a loving home where she can continue to thrive, play, and be cherished the way she should be.

Oliver was born in my home on Memorial Day 2020. He is sweet, but typically doesn't like smaller kids. He loves his big brother Apollo (lab/terrier mix) but takes a while to warm up to newer dogs. I have never seen him interact with another cat, so I am not sure how well he gets along with other felines. A perfect home for Oliver would be a couple with no other animals, but he could fit in with a family that had older children just fine as well.

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

COURTESY POST Mercury is very much a cuddly love bug, much more so than his siblings, Mars and Bean. He and Mars, his cinnamon-y brother are besties and like to hang together, so if you're looking for a fabulous duo... But they aren't bonded and will be fine on their own in new homes as long as they get plenty of attention and exercise. Why plenty of exercise, you ask? Well, all three of the boys are players! They run through kitty tubes, chase each other through rooms, climb just about anything, throw their floppy fish around with abandon, and pounce on anything that moves on its own. They are adorable and so much fun! Call or text The Pet Connection at 913-671-7387 if you're interested in learning more about Mercury, the silvery tabby, or Bean, the handsome tuxedo, or Mars, the cinnamon tabby. They're in the Kansas City metro, but transport might be available to the right home.

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

Unique…. That’s a word I hear when people see me. My fur is quite the special pattern. My personality is gentle and sweet especially for a torti. I can be a little shy so when I meet new people or there is a lot going on around me, I sometimes hold back. Once we become more familiar, you will receive my expert biscuit making skills! Sometimes I will even roll onto my back and make air biscuits. I will happily roll into your arms and onto your lap. Humans are by far my favorite. I was a mom at one point and at this time in my life, other animals are a bit too much for me. Another little detail about me is my special back leg. The doctors said it was likely from a birth defect but I don’t see myself as having a defect. I play. I can run/hop around. I have learned to adapt. Soft cozy beds are my preference. When I am getting around a room, I do prefer soft rugs over slippery floors but again, I manage well. I don’t need extra special treatment but sometimes soft textures simply make me feel more comfortable. I would love to find my human family. Come meet me at Help Humane. Love, Bonita
