Story
ALF got his name because he came to us as a 1 week old kitten with huge eyes that made him look a bit like an alien. ALF is a quiet guy, but still loves to wrestle with his foster siblings. His favorite things are to laze around in the screened in porch or perch himself somewhere to watch out the window. He likes to be pet and held. He starts purring as soon as you look at him. He gets along with dogs and cats. He lives with cockatiel birds and just watches them. He's a chill and respectful guy. He has a cute crick in his tail which makes him unique. He had the crick when he came into the rescue. We think his umbilical cord was wrapped around his tail when he was born. It doesn't stop him from waving it around as he struts through the house. DOB: ~9/14/24 ALF is neutered, current on his distemper and rabies vaccines, microchipped and was combo tested negative. If interested in ALF, please fill out an adoption application: https://new.shelterluv.com/form/other/MFAR/42224-mfar-adoption-application

Jupiter is a gentle and affectionate guy. He's playful and chill. He gets along with the other cats/kittens in his foster home and doesn't mind the dogs either, even when they're acting like crazy idiots. Jupiter has asthma and needs to use Fluticasone HFA inhaler twice daily. This isn't a problem. He is a very easy going and cooperative guy. DOB: 3/30/25 Jupiter is neutered, current on his vaccinations, dewormed and microchipped.

Story
Squeaks is a beautiful orange tabby male who was born around Jan 2023. He was found with a wound on his tummy which required surgery and brought into a foster home. Squeaks was born outdoors and is shy with new folks. He lives with his foster mom and dad and their two cats. He is devoted to his foster parents. Squeaks follows them around and is a real lap cat. He is playful and loving. He loves to play with the other two cats in the household. He likes toys and would do well with any family who puts in time to gain his trust. Orange cats are thought to be friendlier and more affectionate than other cats. They tend to be snuggly. Some orange tabbies are so affectionate that they are often cat-egorized as “velcro” kitties. **Adoption fee of $140 includes spay/neuter, vet visits, deworming, and shots. ** Adoption Application: mercyrescue.org

Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Joy was found abandoned in a neighborhood near our home. She would “meow” but was skittish of humans. We were able to trap her and take her to the vet. Joy had a great vet visit, all of her lab work came back negative and she was spayed and given vaccinations (documentation will be provided). She is a strikingly sweet and happy kitty but is still skittish of humans. She has bonded to our other rescue kitty, Oliver (see his profile for adoption). Joy loves to play especially with Oliver and enjoys “making biscuits” on her favorite stuffed toy. It would be wonderful for Joy if she could be adopted with Oliver who is more comfortable with humans and loves being petted.
