Flare loves her cat friends! People..not so much. She would do great in an adult only home with other cats. She prefers not to be handled but she is young so that could change in time with the right setting. She is very playful and fun to watch.

Story
Wilson is an adorable tabby and the only boy in a litter of four kittens and is definitely the “big brother” of the group. He came to our rescue as a young kitten who apparently had little exposure to humans but quickly grew to love affection and attention. Now, he turns on the purr machine as soon as he sees a human. He is playful and adventurous and is eager to provide a lifetime of entertainment. He would make a fantastic companion as a solo cat or can join a family with other animals. He can also be adopted with one of his sisters, Shoshana or Jinx.October 21, 2025, 12:01 pm

Story
Shoshana is beautiful dilute tortie. She is one of a litter of four kittens and came to our rescue as a young kitten. Although she is a street rescue, Shoshana quickly became accustomed to humans and now craves love and pets. “Shoo-Shoo” is a total sweetheart and would be a great partner for someone in need of companionship as a solo cat or can join a family with other animals. She can also be adopted with one of her siblings, Wilson or JinxOctober 21, 2025, 12:01 pm

Story
Are you looking for a year-round Halloween decoration? Are you an aspiring witch looking for a friendly and loving familiar? Maybe you are looking for an accomplice to cross the street in-front of an ex? Look no further! Asteroid is a [ ] month old black shorthair kitten that’s bursting with affection and personality. Sporting a midnight-black coat (with white ear tufts the only exception), Asteroid wants love and attention from YOU, and like, RIGHT NOW. He adores humans and will follow you around (appropriately, like a shadow should). In fact, he was found in Westchester when he approached a group of ladies having drinks in their back yard and would not leave them. When he is not busy being your shadow, he is happy to chill on a windowsill and watch life go by, nap in photogenic places, or peek out of an umbral void. Asteroid LOVES to talk, and wants to tell you all about his day when you get home. He is also super athletic and will jump, summersault and leap with enthusiasm.October 16, 2025, 8:05 pm

Story
Meet Mindy – a playful, cuddle bug! Adoption Application: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ROSE/Cat Mindy is full of energy, curiosity, and just the right amount of mischief. Mindy loves teaming up with her siblings for playtime shenanigans, and she’s often the one leading the charge into kitten-sized trouble (the fun kind). After all that excitement though, she’s more than happy to settle in your arms for a good cuddle. Mindy is an affectionate, playful girl and will make sure she gets your attention when she needs it! She loves to be with her siblings in a cuddle pile, on your lap, or racing around the house. She's a very loving and fun little kitten and will make a great family member! Mindy is ~8 months old, spayed, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, microchipped, and in great health. She does a great job of keeping her litterbox tidy. All she needs now is her forever home! Mindy would thrive if adopted with one of her foster siblings. She's never met a dog, but with slow introductions to a calm, cat-savvy pup, we think she could learn to love a new dog friend. Mindy’s foster mates: Mike (M), Matt (M), Mary (F) Priority will be given to applicants interested in adopting a pair of kittens or who have patient, playful resident cats or dogs at home. Information on why adopting two kittens together is best for their short- and long-term health and behavior can be found here: http://www.kittenlady.org/twokittens The adoption application can be found here: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ROSE/Cat Mindy is currently in Houston, Texas but can be transported to the Northeast, the Pacific Northwest, Colorado, or locations along ther route. --- ABOUT OUR ADOPTION FEES: Our adoption fees include spay/neuter, vaccinations, microchipping, and transportation costs. Also, when you adopt from ROSES Rescues, you’re doing more than giving your new family member a home. Each adoption fee sponsors 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!
