American Shorthair kittens & cats in Hartford, Connecticut

Hopscotch 🧡🐾 Orange Tabby Boy Hopscotch is a curious little orange tabby who marches to the beat of his own drum. He’s very much an independent toddler type — happy to explore, play, and observe the world on his own terms — but every day he’s showing more of his sweet personality as he comes out of his shell. Hopscotch enjoys playing with his foster siblings and would truly thrive in a home with another friendly kitty to show him the ropes and keep him company. While he’s not a fan of being picked up, he’s learning to trust and will come to you when he’s ready for pets, making those moments extra special. When he’s not batting toys around or tucked away in his favorite kitty house, you can find Hopscotch eagerly awaiting the best parts of the day: breakfast, snack, and dinner (food is very serious business for this guy 😄). Hopscotch is perfect for someone who appreciates a cat with independence, a gentle heart, and a playful spirit — and who understands that the best relationships grow with patience and time. If you’re looking to add a thoughtful, playful companion to a cat-friendly home, Hopscotch may be the perfect fit. 🧡

🐾🫧 Meet Hubba Bubba — “Bubby” to His Friends 🫧🐾 Every great kitten crew has that guy — the one who’s equal parts playful, sweet, and impossible not to love. That guy is Hubba Bubba, better known as Bubby. Bubby is a young male kitten with a big personality and an even bigger heart. He loves to play, especially when it involves wrestling, chasing, or tumbling around with his siblings. If there’s a game happening, Bubby is right in the middle of it, having the time of his life. But just like his namesake, Bubby is also wonderfully soft and sweet. When playtime winds down, he’s happy to settle in for cuddles, soaking up affection and purring contentedly. He’s a friendly, easygoing boy who enjoys companionship and thrives on love. Bubby gets along great with other cats and takes new things in stride, making him a wonderful fit for a home with existing pets. He’s the perfect mix of fun and affection — a kitten who will keep you laughing during the day and cozy at night. If your home could use a little extra joy and a whole lot of sweetness, Hubba Bubba is ready to stick around forever. 💕🐾

Ever wondered why orange cats are without several brain cells? Well we have the answer! It’s because O Brother Where Art Thou stole every last one of them! Too smart to be tricked by treats with a heart set on exploration, Brother Where Art Thou is constantly trying to figure out the world around him through play. At 11 months old, he’s a jealous little man who will become very vocal if you give more attention to someone other than him. But that doesn’t mean he wants to be alone. He enjoys both other cats and finds dogs to be lovely playmates. When it’s time for a nap, you can scoop him up for some amazing snuggles. He might make a sound similar to a squeaky toy being squeezed, but worry not! He is perfectly fine. He’s just smart enough to be dramatic. He also tends to be quite skittish— but don’t be deceived, he’s not shy. He’s clever and clearly planning something mischievous.

🎄 Meet Red Rider – A Little Christmas Miracle 🎄 On a cold day that felt straight out of a winter tale, a tiny orange-and-white kitten was heard crying for help from a pond. Cold, scared, and alone, this brave little soul refused to give up. And just in time, a kindhearted passerby heard his cries and knew she couldn’t leave him behind. She scooped him up, changing his story forever. That little kitten became Red Rider. When Red Rider arrived at rescue, he was a very sick boy — malnourished and loaded with parasites — but like any true Christmas miracle, love and care worked wonders. Thanks to a devoted foster and round-the-clock attention, Red Rider blossomed into the healthy, happy kitten he was always meant to be. Today, Red Rider is nothing short of magical. He’s sweet, affectionate, and full of joy. He loves to play, purrs like a tiny engine, and happily soaks up all the attention he can get. This courageous little guy has shown us just how much love can live in such a small package. Red Rider is now ready to find his forever family — the ones who will be his happily-ever-after. He still needs a few more vaccines and to be neutered, but don’t worry — that’s all covered by the rescue. We may never know how Red Rider ended up alone in a pond, but we do know this: he’s amazing, resilient, and has a very bright future ahead. This Christmas season, he’s wishing for one special gift — a home to call his own. Could that be with you? 🎁❤️

This lovely 10-year-old baby is pure single-child energy in the best way. She thrives when shes the center of attention and would do best as the only pet in the home. She may be a little reserved at first, but once she warms up to you shes a certified lap cat who adores snuggles and quality time. She’s goofy, vocal, and full of personality; she’ll happily talk to you about her day and let you know when it’s time for affection and treats of course. She loves cozy sun spots, gentle affection, and being close to her person. Once she warms up to you, she has so much love to give. What I’m looking for in her new home is hoping to find her a calm, loving home where she can truly shine. An ideal home would be: -Single-pet household where she doesn’t have to share attention. -A patient adopter who will give her time to settle in and feel safe. -A home where she can enjoy plenty of lap time, snuggles, and companionship. She’s very well trained and a spoiled baby. Inside cat only.

Meet Clementine!! This girl is looking for her forever home for the new year!! Adoption Application: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ROSE/cat Clementine joined our foster program after being found with a new litter of kittens by a Good Samaritan! Her babies are all weaned now, and she is ready for her forever home. Clementine is approximately 2yrs old. She loves to be near her person getting the pets she definitely deserves. Clementine is so sweet and calm, but we think she will be quite playful in her forever home. She can be a bit sensitive about being pet on her hind end, so she is best with older kids and cat-savvy people. She would be an excellent only cat, or will do just fine with a buddy or friendly resident cat. She definitely prefers to keep her "clan" small though after raising litters of kittens all on her own -- who can blame her?! This lovely little lady is such a joy and will be a great addition to a calm, cat-savvy household. She's sweet as can be, ready to give love and snuggles, and is hoping for someone to give her a chance this holiday season! Could that person be you? --- Clementine will be microchipped, spayed, and up to date on age-appropriate vaccines prior to adoption. She is in excellent health! The adoption application can be found here: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ROSE/Cat Clementine is currently in Houston, Texas but can be transported to the Northeast, the Pacific Northwest, or locations along these routes. ——— ABOUT OUR ADOPTION FEES: When you adopt from ROSES Rescues, you're doing more than giving your new family member a home. Each adoption fee pays for a cat on the streets of Houston to get fixed, helping end the cycle of overpopulation in a rough environment. We thank you so much for your contribution to our efforts! To learn more about our TNR (Trap / Neuter / Return) efforts, please follows us on Instagram @roses_rescues_htx. (All adoption fees also include transportation costs, spay/neuter of the animal, age-appropriate vaccinations, and microchipping.)

Meet Larry, the sweetest little shadow you’ll ever meet! This adorable black kitten is equal parts snuggly sweetheart and spunky adventurer. Larry loves to zoom around the house chasing toys, and one of his cutest quirks is proudly carrying his favorite toys around in his mouth like the tiny champion he is. But when Larry decides it's time for attention? He will let you know. This boy has a lot to say, and he’s not shy about using his adorable meows to ask for pets, cuddles, or simply your company. Once he has your focus, he’s quick to curl up in your lap or arms, melting into affection like a true cuddle expert. He’s a treat enthusiast, too — offer him a snack and he’ll become your devoted little buddy in seconds. Currently thriving in his foster home with other cats, Larry gets along beautifully with his feline roommates and would love a kitty friend in his forever home. If you’re looking for a loving, lively, and delightfully chatty companion who fills your days with joy and conversation, Larry is your guy!

We ask that you give them time (can take weeks to months) to decompress in their new home, do slow introductions to other pets and let their true personalities have a chance to come through. We celebrated our 7 year anniversary this year! Through the combined efforts of all of our hardworking staff and volunteers, we have placed over 16,000 very lucky dogs and cats into amazing homes!

Please meet Cole. This very friendly and loving fella loves to play. He is black with a white patch under his chin and 3 white toes on his back left foot. After a play session all he wants is some affection and to lay on your lap for a nap. He was born in March of 2024. He has been neutered & is up to date on his vaccinations. This animal is being fostered in the South but transport to a location near you is included in your adoption fee. We use Rescue Riders Pet Transport, (www.rescueridersllc.net), the most animal-friendly transport on the road.

Meet Kiwi! Kiwi is a sweet, 3-month-old all-black kitten with a gentle heart and a shy, loving personality. She may take a little time to warm up, but once she trusts you, she’s full of affection and cuddles. Kiwi would thrive in a cozy, calm home where she can feel safe and loved. She gets along with other animals and would enjoy having a furry friend by her side, but she’d also be happy as the center of attention in a quiet home. If you’re looking for a tender-hearted little companion, Kiwi is ready to fill your days with love. 🖤🐾 Application: https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/62cc8e128b02916730334440/6917a878ad5081890e0be2cc Questions?
