Story
NAME: Harvey Sex: male Color/Pattern: tan tabby with white tuxedo Breed: dsh Weight: med BDAY approx: June 17 2021 Coat length: short Description Harvey is a type-A, friendly, responsive talker who runs up to you for attention. A Velcro kitty who is your shadow. Personality Harvey doesn't think there is anyone in the world who isn’t his best friend. He is so outgoing, super smart and wants to communicate. He can get frustrated if you don't understand what he wants. He would be a good candidate to be trained to use the talking buttons you see on social media. He often prefers attention from people over food. He is independent and bold, brave and affectionate. Harvey was big and muscular when he came to GNAR, but after being neutered, has slimmed down. He was very successful as an outdoor cat. Resourceful and generous with helping other cats, and sweet talking people not-so-subtly to bend to his will. He is a kitty politician. If you are a dog person, this is the cat for you. You could probably teach him tricks. He is attentive and wants you to please him : D Background Harvey and Necia were found as strays together. Outgoing Harvey showed up first outside of an industrial building where the employees started to gain his trust and feed him. Uber-friendly Harvey accepted their invitations for friendship after a short while, and soon started inviting himself inside the front door, so they decided it was probably time to look for a new home for him. After he then also brought his new girlfriend Necia to join him, everyone started worrying that there would be kittens if they didn’t do something to prevent it soon. Harvey was very protective of Necia, so they didn’t get chance to get close enough to her to see if she was also tame. Once the 2 cats started getting too bold and trying to come indoors to the office, the employee contacted GNAR to help find a home for them. So they borrowed traps, and brought them to their new foster home. Harvey continued to guard Necia, so the foster home separated them to let Necia show her true personality. Harvey also sweetened up more after he was relieved of his perceived responsibility as Necia's protector and provider. Compatibility Dogs - yes Cats - yes Kids - yes, older If you are interested in meeting me, please contact my rescue family at GNARHouston@gmail.com to arrange a visit with my foster home!

Story
NAME: Umami Sex: Male Color/Pattern: brown tabby Breed: short Hair Age at intake: 8 weeks BDAY approx: March 26, 2024 Intake date : May 14, 2024 Description Umami is a cuddly, outgoing, affectionate, very handsome kitten. Personality Umami was confident and an extrovert the day he was found. Even though he had never been held by a human before when found at 8 weeks old, he had no problem with it. He was a bit scared for the 1st few days but as soon as you picked him up he melted into a puddle of purrs. He loves to explore and has no fear. He is very curious and is oblivious that some other animals may want to eat him. He will burst out of a doorway, run right up to a large new dog, slipping through the bars of a babygate to join the pack. Umami is talented at jumping up onto a counter to get closer to you. He is a daredevil, talker and enthusiastic eater. Patience is not his forte and he will make sure you know it. Background Umami was found in front of a house all alone after a big storm in southwest Houston on Mon May 13. His momma never came back for him. His finder brought him to a foster home who had 3 bottle baby kittens of about the same age and added him to the litter of orphans. He was just old enough to already be able to lap kitten formula for himself and eat solid food.

Story
Snow is an affectionate, playful kitty with a heart full of love to give. He adores gentle pets, cozy naps, and showing off his big personality — he’s wonderfully expressive and always finds a way to make you smile. While Snow enjoys spending time with his favorite humans, he truly shines as the only pet in the home, where he can soak up all the love and attention he deserves. He also appreciates his quiet moments and values his peaceful alone time. He’s an easygoing eater who especially enjoys wet food with shreds or chunks in gravy — a true comfort meal for this little gentleman. His favorite toys are anything with catnip or silvervine, especially plush mice that bring out his playful side. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving, and fun feline friend who will fill your home with warmth and gentle companionship, Snow might just be your perfect match. ❤️

Dale is ready to be your new best friend!! This little man has a heart of gold and has so much love to give. Adoption Application: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ROSE/ Dale loves to play hard with his human and cat friends before settling down for a good cuddle sesh! His favorite things are wand toys, treats, snugs, and his human pals. He would do great in a home with other cats and humans who are looking for some little kitty attention. This sweet little kitten boy is ready to bring warmth and laughter to your home!! This adorable tuxie boy was found by his foster out on the streets of Houston. Thankfully, now this little buddy is getting to live the indoor cat life. Now all he needs is to find his forever family. Is it you?? Dale is neutered, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, microchipped, and in great health. He does a great job of keeping his litterbox tidy. All they need now is a forever home! He has never met a dog, but with slow introductions to a calm, cat-savvy pup, we think he could learn to love a new dog friend. The adoption application can be found here: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ROSE/Cat Dale is currently in Houston, Texas but can be transported to the Northeast, the Pacific Northwest, or locations along these routes. ——— ABOUT OUR ADOPTION FEES: When you adopt from ROSES Rescues, you're doing more than giving your new family member a home. Each adoption fee pays for a cat on the streets of Houston to get fixed, helping end the cycle of overpopulation in a rough environment. We thank you so much for your contribution to our efforts! To learn more about our TNR (Trap / Neuter / Return) efforts, please follows us on Instagram @roses_rescues_htx.

Meet Georgia, your new best friend!!! Adoption Application: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ROSE/Cat Georgia and her sister Ginny (also adoptable) are two peas in a pod!! Georgia is a play machine, and loves to wrestle and chase her toys. After a good zoomie, she loves to settle down for a good nap and a snuggle. Ginny is the braver of the two gals, and helps her sister Georgia feel safe when she is scared. They are a dynamic duo who are ready to find their forever home! Ginny and Georgia were trapped from a cat colony, very weak and sick from a life on the street. They have been nursed back to health and are getting bigger and stronger every day!! They had a traumatic start to life, but are they learning to feel safe and secure. These girls will need a forever family that lets them warm up at their own pace. All they need now is you to give them the love and attention they deserve!! The two kitties aren't bonded and would be fine if adopted separately, however. Ginny and Georgia are ~8 months old, spayed, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, microchipped, and in great health. They do a great job of keeping their litter box tidy. All they need now is a forever home! They have never met a dog, but with slow introductions to a calm, cat-savvy pup, we think they could learn to love a new dog friend. They may be overwhelmed with rambunctious toddlers or young kids, but would be fine with an older or cat-savvy kiddo. Priority will be given to applicants interested in adopting a pair of kittens or who have patient, playful resident cats or dogs at home. Adopt Ginny and Georgia, and double the love, double the purrs, and double the fun! --- The adoption application can be found here: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ROSE/Cat Ginny and Georgia are currently in Houston, Texas but can be transported to the Northeast, the Pacific Northwest, or locations along these routes. ——— ABOUT OUR ADOPTION FEES: When you adopt from ROSES Rescues, you're doing more than giving your new family member a home.

Say hello to Buttercup! Apply to adopt Buttercup here: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ROSE/Cat Buttercup is a 9-month-old kitty who is a gentle late bloomer. Her past means she takes her time, but she’s steadily building trust with humans and forms quick, positive connections with other animals. She has experience living with both cats and dogs and does well with a calm, predictable environment. Buttercup is comfortable using both a robotic litter box and a traditional litter box. She enjoys a quiet life, and it’s especially rewarding when she chooses to approach you with a lifted tail, asking for affection on her own terms. Buttercup will thrive with someone who appreciates her soft, thoughtful way of showing love. She is FeLV/FIV tested, spayed, rabies and FVRCP vaccinated, microchipped, and up to date on dewormer and flea prevention. Buttercup is fostered in Houston, TX along with her remaining siblings, but transport is available to the PNW, New England, and along applicable transport routes. Adoption fee INCLUDES transport cost. Siblings: Luna (F), Violet (F) —————————————— Apply to adopt Buttercup here: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ROSE/Cat By adopting through our program, you help two cats at once. Adoption proceeds support free and low-cost spay, neuter, and vaccines for pets and community cats in need.
