Story
Leo was born in May 2017 to a stray mother. I adopted him and his brother once they were old enough. He is a true southern cat who likes to sleep his days away and enjoy the cool night air. He eats dry food twice a day and midday snacks. Leo is loving yet not really a lap cat. He spends the evenings near my feet until my bedtime. He doesn’t require a lot of attention unless he’s reminding me he’s hungry.

Story
Lucca was born in May of 2017 to a stray mother along with his brother Leo. I adopted him was soon as he was old enough. Lucca is a loving but independent pet. Not one to be held or sit on my lap but near me and loves getting petted. He does sleep most of the day but then by me in the evenings until my bedtime. He is like a guard cat walking the perimeter of the lanai cage and hunting geckos and tiny frogs. His loud purr is very soothing and reassuring.

Story
Abby is an energetic and fun-loving cat! At two and a half years old, she's just as adorable as she was as a kitten, and she still has plenty of curiosity and an uncanny ability to get into mischief. She's always looking for the next thing to do. So we feel Abby needs an experienced adopter who can keep her safe and healthy! We also feel she would do best in an adult-only household. Abby is very affectionate. She loves kisses, hugs, and sitting/snoozing on her foster mom's lap. Abby was rescued with her sister, Ariel, and both are currently being fostered in a home with two other cats. Abby tends to have a "take charge" personality, but she gets along with everyone. If she isn't adopted with Ariel, she would do very well as a companion for a cat (or cats) already in the adopter's home. The HPC adoption process involves a foster period (to ensure a good "fit") before the adoption is finalized. Since HPC visits the home during that time, potential adopters need to be in the Bradenton/Sarasota (Florida) area.

Story
Ariel is not only a beautiful cat, she's also unique! She has a small black "beard" and a short tail and looks very similar to a Japanese Bobtail, even though that breed isn't reflected in her DNA report. She's half American Domestic Cat with lower percentages of Norwegian Forest Cat, Highlander, Scottish Fold, and Siamese/Oriental Cat. At two and a half years old, Ariel really isn't a kitten any more, but she's still energetic and curious. She loves to play, and "the zoomies" are part of her daily exercise routine. She has also become very affectionate and loves to cuddle in her foster mom's lap. Ariel was rescued with her sister, Abby, and both are currently being fostered in a home with two other cats. Ariel gets along with everyone. If she isn't adopted with Abby, she would do very well as a companion for a cat (or cats) already in the adopter's home.

Story
These 3 black kittens were born on March 15th to a stray mother. We have taken the mom in and the babies were born inside. They are very friendly, social and energetic. They have started eating wet kitten food mixed with kitten formula. They all drink water from a bowl. They will use the litter box when placed in it but need some more training to use it independently. All 3 still have blue/grey eyes that may turn a different color. There are 2 females and 1 male. If you are interested in adopting any of these cuties, they will remain with their mother for 2 more weeks until they are ready to go to their new home.
