Story
This is Little Man! He was found roaming the streets of Baltimore. He’s friendly but young, so he has a good amount of rambunctious kitten energy. He LOVES small dogs and also other cats. He would do great in a home with another pet that is interested in playing and snuggling. Little man enjoys playing with toys, like little balls he can bat around the house. He uses the litter-box great, even if it hasn’t been scooped in a few days. He is a very sweet boy, and would love a lively household, perhaps with other social pets.

Story
Milo is a playful and affectionate young gentleman with a soft orange coat and an even softer heart. Born to stray parents alongside two brothers (Mike and Sully), Milo’s early days were spent outside—but when winter arrived, we decided to bring all the kittens inside. He’s been an indoor cat ever since and has adjusted beautifully. He really loves gentle head and cheek scritches. If you're not up in time for breakfast, don’t worry—Milo will give you a sweet little tap to help you start the day. A fan of wand toys and active play, Milo also takes his naps very seriously. He’s curious, kind, and well-behaved—a "pretty good kitty," as his humans say! Search for Sully if you want to keep the brothers together.

Story
Sully is the definition of a sweetheart — calm, gentle, and full of love. With a face shaped like a perfect little heart, he’s as handsome as he is affectionate. Born to stray parents alongside two brothers (Mike and Milo), Sully’s early days were spent outside—but when winter arrived, we decided to bring all the kittens inside. He’s been an indoor cat ever since and has adjusted beautifully. This laid-back boy adores head and cheek scritches and will happily sit by your side, soaking up attention or quietly keeping you company. He’s easygoing and kind, making him the perfect companion for anyone looking for a relaxed, loving feline friend. If you’re looking for a cat who will fill your home with warmth (and a few gentle purrs), Sully might just be your match. 💛 Search for Milo if you want to keep the brothers together.

Story
Mommy cat Blinkie was found on the Brookstone Condos property outside of Mt. Washington, Baltimore. We are not sure where she came from. She may have been abandoned by someone or she may have been born there. We trapped Blinkie this past Spring as we suspected she was pregnant. We were correct and she delivered 3 beautiful babies the next day. The entire family has been living with their foster mom who has done a great job turning her into a sweet and sassy girl. Blinkie is ready for her forever home with an experienced cat person who will be patient and gently help her come into her own. Are you that person? Please consider adopting Blinkie.! We Thank You!

Story
He’s a total diva — independent, confident, and full of personality. He loves having his own space and shows affection on *his* terms, which makes it even sweeter when he chooses you. He enjoys the outdoors, sunbathing, and exploring, but he also appreciates a calm home where he can relax and do his own thing. If you’re looking for a cat with charm, attitude, and a big personality, he’s your guy.

Story
We took in a cat who came crying for help at our door. We had seen him around for over a year, and suspect he belonged to neighbors who abandoned him. At some point he was TNR'd and his ear clipped. He has been in our home for a few months now, and is definitely an indoor cat, and he just desperately wants to be around people. He is one of the nicest cats we have ever met - very smart, very gentle, obeys commands and very eager to please. He can roughhouse without using teeth or claws at all. We got him fully checked out at the vet--vaccinated dewormed, everything--hoping to help him get adopted. Unfortunately, he is FIV , which any prospective adopter will have to be aware of. We've been calling him Mr. Rogers since we found him in our neighborhood.
