Tabby kittens & cats in Yakima, Washington

Cats are one of the most effective, affordable, and environmentally friendly ways to manage pests.Barn cats, also called feral cats, are domestic cats—usually mixed breed—that live primarily outdoors in a feral or semi-feral state on agricultural properties, often finding shelter in barns or outbuildings.Adopters must provide shelter, food, water, and veterinary care. Suitable locations include barns, outbuildings, factories, or warehouses. All barn cats are spayed or neutered, vaccinated against rabies, and ear-tipped.If you’re interested in adopting a barn cat, please complete our adoption questionnaire, and a member of our adoption team will reach out to you!*Cats pictured are not available*

**Foster Homes Needed!***The pets pictured in this posting are just ad pictures not available pets.*The Yakima Humane Society cares for thousands of animals each year, many of whom need time in a loving foster home before they are ready for adoption. Fostering a homeless pet is a rewarding experience—perfect for families or individuals who love animals but may not be able to commit full-time.Foster Care Families make a real difference, helping animals thrive while preparing them for their forever homes. You can foster as much or as little as you like, and we especially need homes for underage kittens, puppies, cats, and dogs recovering from surgery or illness.Learn more and apply today: https://yakimahumane.org/get-involved/foster/*The pets pictured in this posting are just ad pictures not available pets.*

Meet Daryl, a one and a half year old cat.Daryl is a shy boy looking for a quiet home with patience, understanding, and someone willing to let him move at his own pace. New environments can feel overwhelming for him, and he will likely hide at first while he adjusts and figures out that he’s safe.Starting Daryl off in a small, quiet space—such as a bathroom or spare room—would help him build confidence and settle in without feeling overwhelmed. With time and consistency, he has the potential to slowly come out of his shell and show more of his personality.Daryl may also have the potential to be a barn cat with the right setup and gradual transition, but we don’t want that to overshadow the possibility of him thriving in a patient home environment. Sometimes the quiet cats simply need someone willing to give them a chance.For the right person, Daryl could become a rewarding companion and prove that the best bonds are sometimes the ones built slowly.Ready to adopt?
