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. He really loves gentle head and cheek scritches, and his purr lets you know it. 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!

Story
Mike is the definition of a sweetheart; calm, gentle, and full of love. He’s as handsome as he is affectionate. 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’ll nudge you and give his sweet meows when he wants some extra attention. He’s easygoing and kind, making him the perfect companion for anyone looking for a relaxed, loving feline friend. Give him a window and he’s absolutely content to watch whatever’s going on outside. If you’re looking for a cat who will fill your home with warmth (and a lots of gentle purrs), Mike is your match. 💛

BONDED WITH HER BABIES CHUNK AND SIMON. POSTED ON BEHALF OF ANIMAL ADVODCATES OF HOWARD COUNTY. Please call 410 880 2488 #3 or info@animal-advocates.org to inquire about adoption. Semi-feral 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
Hello! I am looking to rehome my two playful kitties, Toph (black and white) and Katara (brown and white) who are bonded babies. I adopted these two together back in 2021, they are approximately 4 years old. They are house trained, very shy girls who take a minute to warm up. Toph is more outgoing and will want to play as soon as she gets to know you. She is vocal, energetic, and very curious but also likes her alone time. She follows me around my home and enjoys being right near me at all times. Loves to chase bugs, toys, and lasers! She can be held but doesn’t like to be for long. Katara takes a bit of time and she likes to hide, but once comfortable she becomes a lil lap cat. She is my shy girl but has a very playful side once she gets to know you. She does not like to be held but will come sit next to you if a blanket is near. She loves to play with Toph when she’s not taking her food- she will eat up anything in sight so beware! They need to stay together so I am waiving fee
