Tabby kittens & cats in Smithfield, North Carolina

I'm a sweet and playful kitty with a gentle heart and a love for affection. I may be a little shy when I first arrive in my new home, and I might spend a little time hiding while I get my bearings. But with a little patience and kindness, I'll come out of my shell and become your loyal best friend. I absolutely love being petted, and once I trust you, I'll happily soak up all the attention you have to give. String toys are my favorite, and I'll chase and play for as long as you'll join in. If you're looking for a loving companion who's worth the wait, I can't wait to meet you! DOB 2/21/26 ***PLEASE NOTE*** Are you interested in adopting this cat or another JCAPL pet you have seen?

I was named after a comic superheroine princess who is outgoing with a bubbly personality. That is me! When I was at the shelter, I made sure everyone got to know me. I love to eat wet food, play with toys and other kitties, and climb cat trees to look out the window. If you are looking for a love bug who has lots of energy and love to give, I hope you will consider me! ***PLEASE NOTE*** Are you interested in adopting this cat or another JCAPL pet you have seen?

Raffa is a gorgeous boy born in spring 2025. He waits on the back of the couch to get pets every morning. He is active and playful with his siblings, and he is fine with the foster’s dog. He gets stressed by new cats but is fine over time. He's a lap sitter, and he likes to reach out and touch his foster mom’s face while they watch tv. ***PLEASE NOTE*** Are you interested in adopting this cat or another JCAPL pet you have seen?

Taco is an extremely adventurous and brave little boy. He absolutely loves to run around and play with his brothers! But at the end of every play session you can always find him cuddling and napping with someone. Ways to win Taco over? Soft food, treats, and of course… toys!! Taco knows no stranger. Everyone and anyone is a friend and the friendship includes biscuits! Taco is the best baker around with his 24/7 service… except when he’s asleep of course!

I am a little love bug who loves a good adventure. Soft food is my top priority alongside my favorite toy… the crinkle ball!! After playing all day with my brothers, I always enjoy a cuddle on the couch watching tv. DOB: 2/25/26 ***PLEASE NOTE*** Are you interested in adopting this cat or another JCAPL pet you have seen?

Honey is a very trusting and sweet kitty, and her fur is extremely soft to touch. She comes to you for petting and affection. Honey will let you hold her but only briefly--she wants to play instead. She is silly when she runs and slides across the floor batting a toy ball which she will pickup and carry in her mouth. She loves all toys, but balls are probably her favorite. She also enjoys quiet time on her cat tree or lying next to you purring, snuggling, and gently nursing a blanket. She has not experienced dogs in her foster home, but would likely do as well with dogs as she does with her foster's other cats. Honey is also a fighter! At 6 months old, she was taken to an ER Vet due to her foster's concerns over loss of appetite. Although otherwise asymptomatic, she did test positive for a mild, early onset case of Feline Panleukopenia (FPV). She only needed to be hospitalized overnight for fluids, came home the next day, and has now recovered completely, which hopefully means she now has lifelong immunity to FPV. Honey is vaccinated. She would do better in a home where she can be the only cat due to the possibility she could shed the FPV virus in the future.***PLEASE NOTE*** Are you interested in adopting this cat or another JCAPL pet you have seen?

Chase’s mom was still a kitten herself and the babies were taking a toll on her. He and his siblings were sent to foster when they were pretty young so mom could be saved. Chase is very people oriented, very playful, and a general sweetie. He gets along with other cats very well and would love to find a home with a sibling but would be fine on his own.

My name is Sterling. My foster mom calls me baby girl and sweetie. I am a soft, shy girl. I do love to be petted and will purr when you pet me, but I am shy about cuddling with you. I need time to trust. I'm used to being around my sisters and foster cats, and I will cuddle with them. I also love to play. There are some fun stuffy toys in the house, and a toy with balls to chase in a circle. If my sisters or other fosters don't want to play, I'll play with these. My foster mom has stuffy toys on a stick, and I chase them. I'm ready to go to my furever home and be your baby girl—come meet me! ***PLEASE NOTE*** Are you interested in adopting this cat or another JCAPL pet you have seen?

My name is “Bella” and I am a precious and loving little lady! I have a gentle and quiet spirit about me, but I come running as soon as I see you! I love to be rubbed and I like to snuggle with you to take my naps. I also love to talk to you when we are hanging out together. I may do better as a single cat because I like all of the attention for myself. I tend to hiss at others sometimes. I'm looking for a forever home. Could that be with you?
