American Shorthair kittens & cats in Paradise Valley, Arizona

Get ready for the greatest love of your life!!!In Fancy's words:  “My brother, Grayson and I were care for by a kind lady who rescued us from a life outside. I tend to feel more comfortable with other boy cats. I miss my brother who has his new family. I am happy for him, but I still miss him. I am quite playful, with lots and lots of energy! I am very affectionate with people and may be a good match for a family with OLDER children to keep me busy. I have to admit that I like to knock things off counters to get attention. I am okay with most dogs, as long as they won't chase me.”  As with all our foster cats/kittens, Fancy has been altered, microchipped, and has been tested for FIV and feline leukemia.

Swizzle is a sweet and cuddly cat. He loves cuddles and playing with toys. He might take some time to get adjusted but once he does he tends to choose one person and stick with them loyally. Swizzle is playful and vocal, often times able to play by himself by throwing his toys high in the air, but loves to play with his owner as well. He is 4 years old, and we saved him from going to the pound from a mutual friend. In the time since however, we have moved apartments and he is no longer allowed at our new apartment. We are sad to see him go, but we have to rehome him as soon as possible so as not to be in violation of our lease. Hopefully there is someone else who can keep him in a loving home so he doesn't have to go back to a shelter.

T'Challa: The Gentle Warrior Seeking Her Forever Safe HavenMeet T'Challa, a magnificent, short-haired black cat whose incredible spirit has endured unimaginable hardship. This beautiful girl, listed as an American Shorthair, is more than just an adoptable cat; she is a survivor yearning for the peace only a loving home can provide. T'Challa is the sister of Grey, who is also seeking a forever family (please note: they are not a bonded pair).T'Challa carries the invisible scars of a life lived rough. When she was saved by Rescue Street, an organization focused on finding loving homes for pets who have been abandoned or mistreated, she was painfully thin and matted. She has since had a beautiful "glow up," but the emotional trauma remains. The tip of her ear is gone, a sign of her time in the field before rescue, telling a story of survival on the streets. Her deep-seated fear and shyness suggest she was likely attacked by a large dog in the past; because of this, big dogs are not a good fit for her future.Right now, T'Challa is a shy and timid girl, still working tirelessly to adjust to the unbelievable comfort of indoor life and learning that humans can be trusted. She is incredibly gentle and not aggressive at all, even though she often needs the safety of a hiding spot to feel secure.But look closer, the love is there!T'Challa is desperately trying to connect. You'll know she is nearby because she sweetly vocalizes to you from her safe space, a quiet sign of her longing for companionship. For the person patient enough to wait, the reward is profound:She is a confident foodie: She won't let you forget a meal! She loves her food and will clearly "say" when she is hungry.She has a massive heart waiting to unlock: Once she feels truly safe, T'Challa is an astonishingly affectionate cat. She loves pets so much that she will melt, literally slopping over onto you, turning into pure, gentle devotion.T'Challa doesn't need a perfect home; she needs a hero. She requires a quiet home with no large dogs to ensure her peace of mind. She would be an excellent solo pet but will learn to love other cats. If you are the person who recognizes that T'Challa is not broken, but merely waiting for unconditional love to heal, she needs you.We are seeking a patient, understanding adopter who can offer the time, space, and encouragement this gentle soul needs to finally blossom into the confident cat she deserves to be. Providing a calm, predictable environment is the key to letting her quiet, gentle personality shine through.If you are ready to open your heart to a sad story and witness the beautiful transformation of this brave survivor, please fill out an adoption application today. Give T'Challa the chance to know what true, permanent safety feels like. Please visit our website www.rescuestreet.com to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available dogs and cats.

She will rub and get pets and does the most adorable flops when she's getting attention. Her Fudgie flops are just full of love. Fudgie would do wonderfully in a quiet home. She does get along with dogs and most cats, as long as they are not aggressive. She is a small-sized cat, and she will not get much bigger.
