Tabby kittens & cats in Raytown, Missouri

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 Keke 💕 Keke is a one-year-old sweetheart who’s equal parts lovebug and chatterbox. This adorable girl has a lot to say and will happily keep you entertained with her talkative nature.

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.

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

This stunning boy is Sage. Sage came into a shelter that has since closed when he was just a kitten with four of his siblings. Unfortunately, we don't have great records of their age, but we believe they are five years old now. Sage has started to come out and socialize with people, likely because there aren't as many cats around. He would do best in a home with folks who have experience with cats and who are willing to give him time and space to adjust to his new environment. If you are patient and quiet he will come to you for grooming and some pets. But Sage might never be a cat who runs to you when you get home from work or who clamors to jump into your lap when you sit down, and that's okay. Please call or text The Pet Connection at 913-671-7387 for more information on Sage. He's in the Kansas City metro, but transport might be available to the right home.

Pete’s story started with heartbreak, but it can end with love—yours. What a looker! Pete is a dashing 2-year-old tuxedo with a perfect little black beauty mark on his chin—like the Marilyn Monroe of the cat world. Pete and his sister were adopted as kittens, but heartbreak came when their family moved away and left them behind. Neighbors did their best to feed the pair, but after his sister tragically passed, Pete was brought inside and finally given the safety and love he deserved. Pete is about 10 pounds, neutered, and truly one of the sweetest cats you’ll meet. He’s very loving, non-aggressive, and playful—sometimes a little needy, but that just makes sense after his time trying to survive outside on his own. Because of his rough start, Pete is FIV+. But don’t let that scare you—FIV+ cats live long, normal lives and can safely live with other cats. Pete’s foster mom has years of experience with an FIV+ cat and is happy to guide adopters if Pete joins a multi-cat home. If you’re ready for a handsome, affectionate, playful tuxedo boy who just wants love and safety, Pete is waiting. > Kansas City metro (transport available) > Call or text The Pet Connection at 913-671-7387 to meet Pete! #AdoptDontShop #AdoptPete #TuxedoCat #RescueCat #AdoptableCats #FureverHome #PetConnectionKC #CatsofInstagram #AdoptAPet #PetfinderCats #RescueLove #FIVCatStrong

Meet Gracie! 8 weeks • Female • Chaos Goblin Extraordinaire 😼✨ Gracie is *not* your average kitten, she is a full-throttle, WWE-style wrestler trapped in a tiny, fluffy body. She plays hard, zooms harder, and is always looking for her next opponent… we mean *friend*. Gracie will absolutely need another young, energetic cat in the home to match her ball-to-the-wall style of play. She’s not much of a cuddler yet, pick her up and she’ll politely (…or not so politely) growl to let you know she has things to do and worlds to conquer. She may look like a sweet baby angel, but let’s be honest… she is a special brand of adorable evil. The good news? She doesn’t seek out humans to attack. Progress! She’s currently rocking life in a foster home with kids, cats, and dogs and doing great! If the idea of adding a tiny, chaotic queen to your home makes you smile rather than scream… Adopt Gracie! 👑🔥😈
