Story
Lily MRQ#: S11-22 DOB: 9/15/22 SEX: Female BREED: american shorthair COLOR: Tuxedo Lily her mom and sister (Luna,I think they are paternal twins) were left outside under a shed without food or water the coyotes were trying to get to them, because their owner did not want them. When I saw the mom run up to a coyote that was about 8' from her with her hair raised to protect her babies, I grabbed her and felt in my heart to help. These cats seem to be very healthy they have not had any health issues. Very affectionate when you lie down to sleep. Very inquisitive wants to be watch me when I am doing chores. Plays in the sheets while I change the bed. Her favorite play is chasing the feather toy on a long string so she may jump and do back flips. She can jump about 3' high or higher! She is pretty independent not needy she loves her cat tower to watch the birds. She is an inside cat. She will roll over on her back when she feels safe and let you pet her belly if I could, I would keep her and her sister they are very fun to watch them play together and groom each other. Personality Traits: Is litter box trained Has been around other cats Has been around LARGE dogs Is a very ACTIVE kitty Is a mellow, laid back kitty Does NOT liked to be held Does NOT liked to be picked up Luna Other Personality Traits: She is very cautious and will need patience and kindness to trust. Once she trusts you, you will have a buddy for life she is very loyal but will be scared at first as she has always been with her sister. She will need time to get to know and trust new people but if you play with her and let her figure things out on her own she will do better as she is very independent.

Story
Meet Bud, the sweetest little guy who's just waiting for the right home to show his true colors. Though he's a bit shy and gets startled easily, Bud is all about love once he feels safe. He may not be the first to greet you at the door, but he’s always nearby, quietly watching and waiting for the moments that make him happiest—mealtime, treats, and his silly zoomies when he lets his playful side shine! Bud would rather admire you from a safe spot than be held, but that doesn’t make him any less deserving of love. He’s the kind of cat who thrives with patience, kindness, and a home that understands that affection comes in many forms. With time, you’ll get to see his unique personality bloom, and it’s a truly special gift when he chooses to trust you. If you’re looking to open your heart to a shy but lovable companion who just needs a safe place to be himself, Bud is ready to find his forever home.

Story
Hello, I am Ariel. My sister in-laws cat had kittens and so did her neighbors cat but unfortunately her neighbors cat abandoned Stinky and was joined into my sister in-laws litter. I brought stinky home for my roommate but she recently had surgery and isn’t able to take care of him. I already have two cats from my sister in-laws litter so I am unable to take him under my care long term. He is a very sweet and loving cat. He enjoys his nap time and bed side cuddles. He does not have his shots and he is not neutered due to the incapabilities of my roommates care. However he is litter box trained and does well around other cats and other people, he might take a bit to warm up but once he feels safe and comfortable, he is the most affectionate kitty. Stinky is a little over 7 months, born 4/6/25 so he is still a kitten. I am looking for a loving home for him that will take care of getting him spayed as well as up to date with his shots. Please don’t hesitate to negotiate the adoption fee.

Story
Mina is a stunning young kitten with a tender heart and a rare beauty. As a female orange tabby, she’s something truly special. Only about 1 in 5 orange tabbies are female! Her bright, golden-yellow eyes are striking against her soft orange fur, and they perfectly reflect her sweet and soulful personality. At just 6 months old, Mina has already shown incredible resilience. She was originally brought to a vet clinic for a spay, but due to being underweight and unwell, surgery was postponed. The couple who brought her in mentioned she was a neighborhood stray, and due to allergies, they planned to return her outside once she was picked up. Thankfully, the clinic reached out to The Purrty Pals, and we welcomed Mina with open arms. Since then, she has fully recovered, been spayed and vaccinated, and is now thriving in foster care. Mina is a social butterfly and lives harmoniously with several cats and dogs. She loves to play, cuddle, and be part of the action. She would do best in a home with other friendly animals and a human companion she can snuggle up with at night—she loves being part of a pack and isn’t meant to be alone. If you’re looking for a one-of-a-kind kitten with a gentle soul, playful spirit, and unforgettable eyes, Mina is ready to brighten your home and your heart.
