Story
Golden Honey is an outgoing, very affectionate young kitty with a heart of gold. She enjoys being pet and will happily spend hours napping on your lap while you watch TV or work from home. She also has a fun, adventurous spirit and loves running through tunnels, scaling cat trees, wrestling with her siblings, and high jumping to all wand toys. She gets along great with our resident adult cats and younger foster kittens. Rescued alongside her three sisters after being abandoned in an unfamiliar neighborhood, she has left her rough start behind and is entirely focused on bringing joy to her future family. She has an excellent appetite (currently thriving on Purina Healthy Kitten kibble and Fancy Feast pâté) and would make a wonderful addition to a home looking for a social, loving, and very affectionate companion. Golden Honey is the perfect mix of sweet and playful. Hurry and apply to meet her today!

Story
Meet Buckle Bunny (or just Bunny)! 🐰🐾 If you’re looking for a best friend who wants to be involved in every part of your day, Bunny is your girl. Confident, incredibly friendly, and full of personality, she’s never met a stranger and is always ready to make a new friend—whether they have two legs, four legs, or even a wagging tail. She’s wonderful with other cats and respectful dogs, making her an easy addition to just about any home. Bunny is quite the conversationalist and always has something to say. She’ll happily chat with you about your day, remind you when it’s mealtime, or simply narrate her adventures around the house with her adorable commentary. When she’s not busy playing, Bunny transforms into the world’s cuddliest noodle. The moment you start petting her, she’ll dramatically flop over and melt into your hands, soaking up every bit of affection. At bedtime, don’t be surprised if she claims the pillow next to yours—she loves sleeping close to her people. More than anything, Bunny just wants to be wherever you are. Working at your desk? She’ll supervise from the corner. Relaxing on the couch? Expect her curled up on the cushion by your head. She’s the kind of cat who turns everyday moments into quality time simply by being nearby. With her playful spirit, affectionate heart, and hilarious, chatty personality, Buckle Bunny is the perfect companion for anyone looking for a loyal shadow and a lifelong best friend.

Story
Lucky is a mackerel tabby and white domestic shorthair, weighs 11 pounds and is 9 years old. Lucky is very sweet and playful and seems to warm up to new people fairly quickly but he does not like to be picked up for too long. He likes to lay next to you or on you and enjoys being petted. I don’t think he would do well with small children but could do well with other, non-aggressive cats. My dad passed away recently and Lucky is currently living at the house with my mom but she is disabled and needs 24/7 care and Lucky is not getting the attention he is used to and deserves. I had planned on adopting him and brought him to my house for 2 months but my 2 other cats were getting too aggressive with him and would not accept him so he is now living at home again. He deserves a wonderful home to go to and if my cats accepted him, I would have adopted him myself.

Story
Meet Paisley, the teeny tiny girl with a BIG personality! QUICK NOTES * Adoption Application: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ROSE/Cat * Paisley is a very social girl and needs to be adopted with a buddy or to a house with a playful and friendly resident kitty * We transport our babies from Houston, TX to the NE, PNW, and locations along those routes (adoption fee includes transport) * Adoption Fee (kitten < 6 mo) is $425 and includes all vetting and cost of transport --- Paisley may only be two months old, but she has never once gotten that memo! This short-haired dark grey tabby is instantly recognizable by her two most charming features: a sweet little heart-shaped orange spot on her neck and the most adorable white smudge on her nose. She is, in a word, special. Paisley is always on the move, always making friends, and always the first to say hello to a new face (feline or human). She is smart, bold, and utterly unstoppable. She loves to play, will follow a Churu treat packet to the ends of the earth, and genuinely thrives with feline companionship. She’d do best in a home with at least one or two other cats to keep up with her big energy and even bigger heart. This little girl loves her "siblings" Puck and Piper (the little kitten family that adopter her as their own), and also does great with her foster buddy Gigi. Sometimes she is still a little shy at first with new people, but will warm up quickly once she knows she can trust you! This little girl is one of a kind. If you’re lucky enough to adopt Paisley, she will absolutely run your household - and you’ll love every second of it. Foster siblings: Puck (F), Piper (F), Gigi (F) --- 🐾 Health & Care: • FVRCP & rabies vaccinated • Spayed and microchipped • Current on dewormer & flea prevention Fostered in Houston, TX: transport available to the Pacific Northwest, the Northeast, and stops along the route. Transport costs are covered by the adoption fee. Your adoption fee saves two lives: it brings Paisley home AND funds spay/neuter surgeries, vaccines, and critical veterinary care for homeless cats and community cats in need. One fee. Two lives saved.

Story
Meet Josephine and Emma - a truly extraordinary bonded pair of kitties 💛 TOO LONG, DIDN’T READ - SUMMARY: * Adoption Application: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ROSE/Cat * Our rescue is located in Houston, TX, and we transport our babies to wonderful adopters in the Northeast, Pacific Northwest, and Colorado (on occasion). Transport cost is included in the adoption fee. * Josephine is bonded with her daughter Emma. * Adoption fee for Emma and Josephine together is $500 (which includes a discount for adopting both of these amazing cats.) --- We don't usually write a biography for two cats at once, but this sweet mother/daughter duo share everything, and you really can't get to know one of them without the other! Josephine, the devoted mother, and Emma, her daughter, share a bond based on survival and love. The duo came from a rough situation where survival wasn’t guaranteed, yet somehow, they made their way through... and held on tight to each other. Since then, they’ve been inseparable, forming a bond that is as rare as it is beautiful. Josephine and Emma aren’t just cats who get along. They’re a family, a team, and a reminder of resilience and love. They'll be a beautiful addition to a loving forever family. --- Josephine is the heart of the duo: bubbly, gentle, and full of quiet kindness. She has an innocent sweetness about her, and a protective, nurturing instinct when it comes to Emma. She’s a loving presence who seems to understand just how special their connection is. Emma, her daughter, brings a different kind of charm. She’s a bit more cautious at first, observing the world with her wide, expressive eyes that make her look forever kitten-like. But in a flash, that soft gaze can turn into a mischievous, almost “tiny troublemaker” look that gives her a playful edge. It’s part of what makes her so endearing. Together, they do everything side by side: sleeping in little tangled bundles, grooming each other, playing, basking in the sun, or simply sitting close, as if that alone is enough. Their relationship isn’t just companionship; it’s a deep, comforting partnership that you can feel just by being around them. These two gals also adore their foster family and are always in the middle of the action! They love pets and snuggles, and bring a calm energy to any room. They are so loving and adorable -- they are guaranteed to bring a smile to your face! Josephine and Emma are looking for a home where they can stay together... just as they’ve always been. --- Emma and Josephine have been around cats in their foster home and they do very well in that environment! Emma is ~1 year old and Josephine is ~2 years old. They are both spayed, microchipped, and up to date on age-appropriate vaccines. The adoption application can be found here:
 https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ROSE/Cat

 The girls are currently in Houston, Texas but can be transported to the Northeast, the Pacific Northwest, or locations along these routes.
