Story
Hi, I'm Susie. I'm a bit shy but once you get to know me, you'll find I'm quite the character. You see, I ended up here at the shelter due to a little mishap with a ham sandwich. I spotted it on the counter, and well, my inner gymnast took over. I leapt, I swiped, I... might've knocked over a vase. Who knew humans could be so touchy about 'antiques'? Anyway, I'm independent, smart, and sweet. I've got energy to spare and a goofy side that'll keep you laughing. If you're looking for a feline friend who can keep you on your toes, I'm your girl!

Story
Hi, I'm Raleigh! My superhero tale began when I saved my fellow furry friends from a tricky maze in an old, forgotten warehouse. Using my super whiskers, I sensed our way out, guiding everyone to safety. That heroic act got me noticed, and soon I found myself here, at the shelter, waiting for a new adventure. I'm playful, gentle, and a bit shy, but I'm also brave and loyal. If you're looking for a curious, friendly companion who might just save the day, I'm your cat! Why not let our story begin together?

Hi! I'm Rutabaga. I love to play hide and seek in my cozy little corner here. Sometimes, I'm a bit shy, peeking out just with one eye, but give me a minute and I'll be zooming around, making everyone laugh with my goofy antics. I'm also quite clever; I've figured out all the puzzle toys here. But, you know, I'm dreaming of a home where I can share all my energy and funny tricks with someone special. If you're looking for a playful and loving companion, I'm your kitten. Why not come meet me and let the fun begin?

Story
Hi, I'm Tate! My journey to the shelter? Oh, it's a funny tale. I was once a curious cat exploring a bakery, you see. One moment I was sniffing at some delicious pastries, and the next, I accidentally locked myself in a delivery van! When I finally emerged, I was miles away from my old alley. The kind folks at the shelter took me in, and here I am! I'm playful, gentle, and a bit shy but don't let that fool you. I'm also brave and very loyal. If you need a friendly explorer in your life, I'm your cat!

Story
Meet Wisteria! 🌸 Wisteria is a curious and playful young kitten with beautiful tiger stripes and a personality just as striking. Bursting with energy, she’s always up for an adventure—whether that’s chasing toys, exploring every corner of the room, or chatting with you about her latest discoveries. Yes, Wisteria is quite the talker and isn’t shy about letting you know when she wants attention (or a snack!). When the excitement winds down, Wisteria loves to curl up in your lap for a cozy nap, purring herself to sleep. She’s being fostered in Madison, AL, in a home with both dogs and cats, and she’s learning to be a confident, social companion. Wisteria is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on her core vaccines—ready to join her forever family. If you're looking for a kitten who will keep you entertained, fill your home with love, and always be by your side (or on your lap), Wisteria is your girl! Come meet this little tigress—you won’t be able to resist her charm!
