Story
Willow, 1 year old male, may be shy at first, but with patience and gentle routines, he blossoms into an affectionate, energetic, and silly companion. Once he trusts you, he’ll happily show off his playful side, zoom around with his toys, soak up attention, and eagerly enjoy all his favorite treats (wet food, dry food, tuna—you name it, he’ll gobble it up!). Willow loves window watching, playtime, and his beloved puree treats. He’s sensitive to loud noises, sudden movements, and chaotic environments, so a calm home with cozy safe spaces where he can retreat and reset is essential. He can become overstimulated if frightened, but he has never bitten or scratched—he simply needs understanding people who will let him decompress. He is healthy, vaccinated, and litter box trained. He gets along well with other cats, including seniors, and even tries to play with them—though they don’t always match his youthful energy. Willow’s journey began outdoors, where he survived an injury and was initially TNR’d under the assumption that he was feral. Thanks to a kind neighbor who helped him, it became clear that Willow wasn’t feral at all—just a scared but incredibly friendly boy. We stepped in to foster him, and he has shown us every day what a sweet, loving cat he truly is. Willow is indoor only and his rehoming fee is $100.  He lives in Beaverton with his  This cat is offered for adoption due to the owner's personal circumstances. For more information on meeting and adopting this kitty, please fill out a pre-adoption application under "ADOPT" on our website at WWW.CATSCRADLERESCUE.COM.

Story
Tess is a sweet 10-year-old girl looking for a peaceful home to spend her golden years. Her mom is moving soon and sadly can’t take her along, so she’s hoping to find someone—perhaps a homebody or retiree—who would love a calm, devoted companion. Tess prefers to be the only pet in the home. While she may be a little timid at first, once she settles in, she’s wonderfully affectionate and playful. She loves to chase toy mice, enjoys a sprinkle of catnip, and might even surprise you by playing a game of fetch! She’s been an indoor cat her whole life, though she enjoys a bit of supervised outdoor time now and then. A cozy window perch would make her day—perfect for bird- and squirrel-watching. Tess will be up to date on her vaccines, is microchipped, and always uses her litter box when it’s kept clean and all hers. She comes with everything she needs to feel right at home: a litter box, food, treats, slow feeder, food puzzles, favorite toys, scratching post, nail clippers, carrier, window perch, and a few cozy blankets. If you’re looking for a loyal, gentle cat who will greet you at the door and keep you company, Tess might be the perfect match for you.  Her rehoming fee is $50 and she lives in Vancouver with her owner.   This cat is offered for adoption due to the owner's personal circumstances. For more information on meeting and adopting this kitty, please fill out a pre-adoption application under "ADOPT" on our website at WWW.CATSCRADLERESCUE.COM.

Story
This adorable ball of fur is 1 year old. He's shy but if you're patient and he starts to trust you, he's such a sweet, energetic goofball. He loves puree treats, play time, window watching and attention. He's scared of loud people/noises and sudden movements. He can get overstimulated if he's scared but has never bitten/scratched. He needs a home with safe spaces where he won't be disturbed if he is scared so he can calm himself. Since he spent time on the street, he needs time and routines to trust his family so he can feel safe. Whether it's wet food, dry food, tuna or snacks, he will gobble it up. He is healthy, vaccinated and litter box trained. He is friendly to our senior cats and tries to play with them but they do not match his energy. Willow came into our lives after a neighbor helped him with an injury he sustained while living on the street and TNR'd him thinking he was a feral cat. During their interactions, she noted how friendly he was. We volunteered to foster him.

Story
Binx is half of a bonded pair, his brother is a grey short haired cat named Indie! Binx is a sweet and shy boy, loud noises and small children frighten him, but if you go slow and give him some time he'll be chirping for pets in no time! Binx was found as a stray kitten in California and our intention has always been to find him a loving home. He loves to follow his brother around, nap in the windowsill, and loves a good feathered toy. So far he doesn't seem to enjoy babies or toddlers, but older children were fine. He is great with dogs, he is ok with other cats but often shy/fearful at first, and loves to watch fish! Binx is such a gentle and loving boy, but as much as we love him and his brother, we just think their needs will be better met with a family that has more time to spend with them!

Story
Blacky has been a community cat in our neighborhood for several years. Over time he has become very friendly and now regularly cries to be let indoors. We’d love to find him a home where he can be indoor or indoor/outdoor before the cold weather really sets in. Blacky has a clipped ear and has been neutered and received shots, though he has not had regular vet care. We are having him tested for FeLV and FIV this week for peace of mind. Please consider adopting this sweet and loving kitty!
