Turkish Van kittens & cats in Columbia, South Carolina

Are you looking for a handsome Turkish Van? I'm your dream come true. I'm a big, mellow guy who loves everyone; humans, cats and dogs. I enjoy snoozing in your lap and snuggling close at bedtime. I'm curious and playful but I try not to over-exert myself. I like playing in water so you'll find me waiting to hop in the shower when you're done. I've got really soft, thick fur which makes me extra cuddly. I'm also a fan of football games and rom-coms. I'll watch both sprawled across your lap. I talk in quiet chirps, no loud meows unless you put me in a carrier for a car ride. I'm allergic to pine so no pellet litter or walks in a pine forest for me.

I brought Mila into my home in 2017, and she has lived in 6 different homes with me. She’s estimated to be 10 - 12 years old. Mila is super sweet and snuggly. She loves kneading on fuzzy blankets and hiding out in covered cat beds. I have a toddler and baby and Mila is great with them.

Pica is a beautiful girl. She was returned with her cat companion after 5 years. Her adopter was aging and could not care for them. Her companion was adopted and Pica is looking for a good home. She is a portly girl who does like her food. She has been on a slimming program and should be maintained on it. Pica is friendly but is reserved around humans. However, she loves to play with her favorite wand toy. She would do best in either a single cat home or with another quiet cat. No dogs.

Sweet Ellaree born 10/1/21 whose life started out grimly after she seemed to hitch a ride in a car engine. We really don't know how she survived after having two broken legs on one side and her tail ripped off, but she did!!! And she came out of it with a beautiful personality and is a lap cat extraordinaire. She is your love bug but does not want to share with any other furry friends. Great with children. She is a nibbler when she is hungry, nothing major but she wants her dinner!  She has a playful streak too, so when she isn’t in the comfort of your lap or a warm window sill, she’s batting around her favorite toys. Ellaree does have FIV which to anyone who has read about this, is not the condition that was once thought, and cats can live long, healthy lives. At adoption events, you’ll hear Ellaree talking—asking for attention from everyone that walks by. She leans into pets through the kennel bars and dreams of finding her perfect forever home.  Come meet Ellaree at our adoption events on Saturdays from 12-4 at PetSmart on Harbison and be prepared to fall in love!
