Story
Hi There! Let me introduce you to our Fabulous Foursome! Winkin, Blinkin, Tabby, and Tux! These 4 brothers have been in a loving foster home since being rescued from under a backyard shed. Each has their very own lovely personality and every bit of kitten playfulness they should be! They were born on April 1st so are now about 3 months old. They’re ready for their forever homes and will continue to receive vetting support and neuter through East CAN even once in new places. Winkin (one of the twins! Gray and white and curious) is a very friendly curious babe who likes a nuzzle and is quick to purr. Tabby (he’s the Tabby… ha!) is an outgoing and playful little boy who loves to explore. Blinkin (gray and white like his twin brother but with the addition of a sweet gray beard) like Tabby is playful and outgoing - kind of the Ying to his twin brother Winkin’s Yang! Tux (in his regal black tuxedo) is a true snuggle bunny. He’s the last to the food bowl and the first to his nap. He likes to sneak away under the couch for some quiet time away from his brothers. They’re all absolutely precious and ready for their forever families! If you are interested in meeting any of these babies please email info@eastcan.org and someone will get back with you ASAP to set something up.

Story
Lobo came to us after being abandoned by his previous owner, he wasn't in the best shape when we got him, but he's in great shape now. He is one of the most loving boys I have ever met. He loves to snuggle, gives the best head bonks in town, and will happily follow you around the house so he can hang out. He is such a good little buddy. Extremely outgoing cat, who loves humans (hasn't met one he doesn't like yet). He seems ok with other cats as long as they are not agressive. He has been introduced to a few of ours and beyond light hissing there hasn't been drama. He would be great as an only cat, since he seems primarily motivated by human attention. Great with kids, and very playful as well. He has only recently been nuetered, so he has some very big squishable cheeks (which i feel like is definitely a bonus), and fully house-trained. FIV/FeLV negative, and we just got him updated on shots as well as microchipped. He has some allergies, so he may need a special diet.

Story
This is the coolest of the Kool Kats! Super chill and very respectful, he's always out on a secret mission and loves to stop in for a bite to eat and some snuggle time then he's right back out again. Sparks was found in a parking lot with his two sisters. He was doted on quite ferociously and would get really scared when the girls were both out without him. Being the tamer of the three, he came with me and merged seamlessly with my other kitty boys. He really needs another non alpha kitty to love on and be sweet with. Or probably fine to be with no other cats as long as he has someone who can shower him with all the pets when comes back from a long day out about the town. He really is an angel and I'm heartbroken to rehome him but one of my other cats has decided its his mission in life to come to blows with sweet Sparky any time he sees him.

Ozzy was found in a ditch in Dickson, TN, where he and his brothers/sisters were rescued. He has had his shots, his rabies as of last week, has not been neutered. I’m looking for someone who is able to give him the time he deserves. He loves food, sleep and cuddles. He gets along perfect with my small dog, just not any big dogs. Please adopt him so I don’t have to surrender him!!

Story
A sweet, shy kitten that is perfect to snuggle! Little Pepsi was found under a shed at what we believe is seven weeks but he is a strong little kitten! He eats well, uses the litter box perfectly, and has been getting along perfectly with our kitties. Approx. birthday is 6/1/24! He can get scared still around people, but in a matter of two days he was already sleeping with us while we watched a movie so he will do just fine. Vet visit is pending, but you are welcome to take him home early at an adjusted pet fee of $25. He has been cleaned, brushed, and flea free. He is a calm little kitty, but still loves to play, mostly with other kitties. He will do best in a home with other cats, but it is not a requirement. Hopefully you can be his happy home today! (I am willing to drop him off nearby for safety reasons, however future pet parents will need to bring a carrier. Pet must be promised to be neutered when he is of age. Food will be provided to go home with kitty!)

Story
Meet Percy: the ultimate charmer! This big, handsome fellow is a chatterbox with a heart of gold. At 5-1/2 years old, he's the epitome of easy-going and low maintenance. Just a heads-up, though-Percy can get a bit too excited sometimes (who doesn't?). He's been living the indoor life for almost two years now, ever since he decided the great outdoors wasn't his scene.

Story
Meet Mittens: a suave, neutered grey gentleman, 9 years young, and surrendered with his equally charming sibling. He's an indoor-only kind of guy-no wild parties or late-night escapades. His current caregiver is off to college (apparently, dorms aren't cat-friendly), so Mittens is on the lookout for a new pad. Lots of purrs and cuddles waiting for the right human!
