Tabby kittens & cats in Ithaca, New York

Kenzie is a 6 year old orange tabby with a huge personality and an even bigger heart. He was found as a kitten in a well on a farm, and I got him from a friend shortly after, and I have had him ever since. He is incredibly funny and very vocal, he will meow nonstop until breakfast is served. When I get home from work he is always at the door to greet me. While he was very playful when he was younger, now he spends most of his time sleeping or cuddling. He loves pets and neck scratches but can get overstimulated; he does not like belly rubs and can be sensitive about his tail. He loves catnip, especially the spray kind for toys. Unfortunately I must rehome him due to moving on campus for college. He needs a quiet home with no kids and no other animals; he can tolerate female cats but does not do well with male cats. He is bonded to my other cat, Luna (5 1/2 years old), who is very shy, and they must be adopted together. Every introvert needs their extrovert!

Luna is a very sweet indoor 4 year old girl who will guard the house and watch to make sure everything is in order. She loves to herd and sit on shoulders. She enjoys following with routines such as bed time and insists on being by your side for them. She is sometimes a talker with a very light meow. She is a good mouser and climber. Luna is gentle to kids. When she bonds with you she is okay to be picked up and held. She has never scratched or bitten myself or my daughter. She is playful and explorative. She is a healthy and energetic girl. I am having to relocate in July and trying to find my baby a safe home.

Slurms MacKenzie came to us as a stray, but thanks to a kind foster person, we now know so much more about this handsome young man! He likes to take things at his own pace when it comes to getting to know you, and he appreciates a very Zen household with plenty of hidey holes for him to relax in. Give him some time to settle in, entice him with treats, and you may get to see a rare zoomie or two from this fetching guy. He`s also got a keen sense of curiosity, so make sure that your trash bins are secure against his inquisitive nature. We also know that this quiet dude is FIV+, which means that his immune system is more susceptible to things that another cat would brush off, and will require biannual wellness checkups. His outdoor excursions are also at an end, but with enough gentle attention, tempting meals, and warm napping spots, we`re sure that he`ll be content with this change in his life. Does your home lack the mindful serenity that Slurms could bring into it? Come on over to the adoption center Wednesday-Sunday 12-4:30 (Thursday 12-6:30) and meet the dude himself. He`ll be waiting!You can also reach our adoptions team:by email: adoptions@spcaonline.comby phone (during open hours): 607-257-1822 x221

This young gentleman was left with a cat sitter and his owner never came back to pick him up. His caretaker wasn`t able to keep him permanently, so our team stepped in and brought Leo into the shelter. He had a bit of a rough start when he first got here, so we sent him to a loving foster home where he can learn to trust people again and not fear abandonment. His foster has some really sweet things to say about him. Have a read: `Although Leo has been through a lot, he has the sweetest personality: he runs up to even new people and is often on a visitor`s lap within five minutes. This guy was left alone for a long time in his previous situation, and he is so grateful for all of the human attention he gets. If you want a companion who will greet you every time you walk in the room, Leo is the cat for you. He`s also happy to soak up human attention through playtime, jumping and chasing after wand toys. He`s a very gentle kitty when playing with children or adults. For solo play, he loves to bat a spiral toy around the room and carry it back to his scratching post in his mouth. His nutritional needs were also not being met in his previous situation, but he`s making up for it now. His hearty appetite for wet food has been helping him gain weight, and he has yet to meet a treat he doesn`t love!`He has lived with other cats and we have no history of him with dogs, but our adoptions team is happy to provide all the information needed to facilitate a slow and thoughtful introduction. If you think Leo might be the man for you, let our adoptions team know and they will set up a meet and greet with their foster parent. by email: adoptions@spcaonline.comby phone (during open hours): 607-257-1822 x221
