Turkish Angora kittens & cats in Marietta, Ohio

Rocky is a handsome male senior kitty (perhaps 10-12 years old) who was brought to the HSOV on October 19, 2025 by a Good Samaritan who found him on Fourth Street in Marietta Ohio. That kind individual had kept him safe for about a month. Rocky was not wearing a collar, and he was not microchipped. Rocky has a gray medium-haired coat, white paws, a long tail, and an adorable face with golden eyes, a dusting of white on his muzzle, and long white whiskers. Rocky has a sweet, easygoing personality and just 'goes with the flow'. Rocky gets along with other cats, and he loves his people friends. Rocky was a little under-the-weather when he entered our shelter and our HSOV Feline Kennel Techs quickly started him on antibiotics to help him feel better. Rocky was given first vaccines on October 19, 2025. He weighed 7.8 lbs that day. Rocky was given booster vaccines on November 6th. Thanks to Mercy Now Veterinary Care (Dr. Mills) for taking good care of Rocky on October 29, 2025 when it was discovered that this older gentleman had some dental issues. Rocky had three teeth extracted that day and a dental cleaning, so we know he feels much better now! These photos were taken on January 13, 2026 while Rocky was enjoying an afternoon nap on a comfy plush kitty bed. Rocky has already been neutered, so he could leave our shelter immediately with an approved HSOV adoption application. Update: Rocky went home with a foster mother this afternoon (February 22, 2026) so that he can enjoy the comfort and freedom of a real home environment instead of a small shelter cage. Rocky is still available for adoption .. If you would like to offer Rocky a "forever home", please complete an HSOV adoption application and submit for approval so that our HSOV managers can make arrangements for a meet-and-greet with Rocky's foster family.
