Meet Daisy! Daisy is a precious little void kitten with a gentle and loving heart. She can be a little shy at first, but once she feels comfortable, her sweet personality shines through. Daisy is super playful and full of kitten energy, but she also loves her cozy nap times just as much. She enjoys spending time with her foster siblings and is wonderful with children, making her a perfect fit for a family home. With her mix of playfulness and sweetness, Daisy is ready to blossom into the perfect companion for someone special. Could Daisy be the little flower that brightens your home? Daisy is currently 5 months, spayed, microchipped, up to date on age appropriate vaccines, and in great health! She has great litter box habits and all she needs now is a forever home! The adoption application can be found here: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ROSE/Cat You can receive a discount when adopting two kitties with ROSES. Information on why adopting two kittens is better for their short- and long-term health can be found here: http://www.kittenlady.org/twokittens Daisy is currently in Houston, Texas but can be transported to the Northeast, the Pacific Northwest, or locations along these routes. ABOUT OUR ADOPTION FEES: When you adopt from ROSES Rescues, you’re doing more than giving your new family member a home. Each adoption fee pays for a cat on the streets of Houston to get fixed, helping end the cycle of overpopulation in a rough environment. We thank you for your contribution to our efforts!

Azlan is ready to steal your heart! Perfect in every way, he is ready to give you the snugs and love both of you deserve!! Adoption Application: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ROSE/cat Azlan is a sweet guy who just wants snugs and attention. He loves his treats, his toys, and his cuddles. He will even grab your hand if he's not done with pets! He is a young adult, so he's a little calmer than his kitten and teenage foster siblings. He is not a troublemaker and gets along well with the other animals in his foster home. This orange gentleman is going to be the perfect addition to his new forever family! This handsome little boy was found out on the street, waiting to be rescued. Thankfully, now this sweet little guy is safe, thriving, and looking for his forever home. Could it be you??! Azlan is ~4 years old, neutered, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, microchipped, and in great health. He does a great job of keeping his litter box tidy. All he needs now is a forever home! He has met a large dog, and with slow introductions to a calm, cat-savvy pup, we think he could learn to love a new dog friend. He was rescued by a good Samaritan and they are so happy he gets to live the inside cat life!!

Meet Scoobie!! This handsome guy and his best bud Jimmy Jr. are searching for their forever home in the new year!!! Adoption Application: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ROSE/cat Scoobie is ~9 month old! After being found as a stray, Scoobie quickly settled into life as an indoor kitten. He loves to play with toys and foster siblings. He is a huge fan of sleeping in dog beds or large cat beds with his best buddy Jimmy Jr.. When the mood strikes him, he will zip up and down the halls chasing balls or other rolling toys. At night both boys will join their people on the bed for cuddles. Priority will be given to applicants interested in adopting a pair of kittens or who have patient, playful resident cats or dogs at home. Scoobie has not met a dog before, but with slow and careful introductions to a well-behaved dog we think he would do great with a new pup sibling! --- Information on why adopting two kittens is better for their short- and long-term health can be found here: http://www.kittenlady.org/twokittens Scoobie will be microchipped, neutered, and up to date on age-appropriate vaccines prior to adoption.

Meet Clementine!! This girl is looking for her forever home for the new year!! Adoption Application: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ROSE/cat Clementine joined our foster program after being found with a new litter of kittens by a Good Samaritan! Her babies are all weaned now, and she is ready for her forever home. Clementine is approximately 2yrs old. She loves to be near her person getting the pets she definitely deserves. Clementine is so sweet and calm, but we think she will be quite playful in her forever home. She can be a bit sensitive about being pet on her hind end, so she is best with older kids and cat-savvy people. She would be an excellent only cat, or will do just fine with a buddy or friendly resident cat. She definitely prefers to keep her "clan" small though after raising litters of kittens all on her own -- who can blame her?! This lovely little lady is such a joy and will be a great addition to a calm, cat-savvy household. She's sweet as can be, ready to give love and snuggles, and is hoping for someone to give her a chance this holiday season! Could that person be you? --- Clementine will be microchipped, spayed, and up to date on age-appropriate vaccines prior to adoption. She is in excellent health!

EASY-GOING LOVEBUG  DOB 9/1/21 Howdy everyone! I’m Indy, a handsome, easy-going black DSH/ Bombay mix dude with a sleek, shiny patent-leather coat and big, copper-penny eyes. It took me a while to learn that being petted, chin scratches, and lap time with my foster dad might just be a good thing. My momma Luna led the way, so I started curling up on my foster dad’s warm chest for a quick power nap and discovered that it was pretty delightful. My favorite pastimes include following my foster dad into the bathroom (Bombay mixes can be very dog-like), looking handsome, and watching the world go by as I bask in a patch of sunshine on a windowsill. My favorite likes are dry food, toys with tassels, and warm beds.  Arrange to meet me today. Find out if YOUR chest could be my next napping station! https://photos.app.goo.gl/9LhdD26NmAhzMUtGA HOPE ID 21-1204-C089 Indy's $125 adoption fee includes spay/neuter, basic vaccines, microchip and registration, testing for FIV/FeLV, negative fecal test, and preventative treatment against fleas and parasites.

DEMANDS ENDLESS HOURS OF LOVING ATTENTION  DOB 1/11/23 Hey everyone! I’m Tomm, a very quiet, calm, and handsome – if I do say so myself – 12-pound Bombay mix fella with a sleek, shiny black patent-leather coat and big golden-globe eyes. I’m one of those Velcro boys who loves to stick close to Foster Meowmy where I can demand endless hours of gentle stroking and loving ear-scritches. My brothers Jerry, Jax, and I, a.k.a. #3-mousketeers, were less than a year old when we showed up as homeless strays in Foster Meowmy’s neighborhood. Initially she trapped, neutered, and released us. After about a year of feeding us, when her last foster kitten had been adopted, she decided that, with a little time and patience, we’d make wonderful indoor companion pets. It did take a while for her to earn my trust, but once she did (thanks to treat rewards!), I’m now all hers!! Boy howdy! With 20-20 hindsight, I much prefer brimming food/ water bowls and climate-controlled indoor life. My foster home is like an oasis from battling Houston’s derechos, hurricanes, and winter storms. The hardscrabble outdoor life is for the birds! I have some catching-up to do as a young adult fella because playing with toys is an all-new adventure for me! But I’ll get there! Could you be the next person who snakes the wand-toy around the room for me to chase or waves it over my head to lunge at? Or perhaps you have a tower of balls to enrapture me? Catnip mice and crinkle balls for me to display my talents as a soccer striker? Then I’m the man for you! Although we’re available separately, please consider adopting me with Jax. He’s shy and initially fearful, but, as his BFF, I help make him feel safe. Arrange to meet me (and Jax, for that matter!) today! I can’t wait to meet you! HOPE ID 25-0110-M011 Tomm's $125 adoption fee includes spay/neuter, basic vaccines, microchip and registration, testing for FIV/FeLV, negative fecal test, and preventative treatment against fleas and parasites. To apply online: http://www.homelesspets.net/adoption-forms/cat-adoption.php If you have questions prior to filling out the application or want to find out which adoption site Tomm will be this weekend, email us at sfenicle1@gmail.com, and a volunteer will get back to you.

GOES WILD OVER CATNIP  DOB 8/3/19 Hey there, everyone! I’m Pancake, a sweet, affectionate, and cuddly Bombay mix fella with coper-penny eyes who loves to snuggle either in Foster Meowmy’s lap or against her thigh as we binge on Netflix together. It’s so relaxing for her gently to massage all over my body, and I’ll hang out with her as long as she’s willing to pet me. I even enjoy belly rubs, which is unusual for a cat. I overheard Foster Meowmy tell someone recently, “Pancake is a gentleman in every way.” I guess you’d say that I’m a Gentle Giant because I’m extra-large, but the way I look at it, you’ve just got more to hug! Despite my plus-size, I’m somewhat playful, and catnip makes me go crazy!! My brother Waffle and I find ourselves homeless through no fault of our own. We had been happily living with the lady who adopted us as kittens, but unfortunately, when she passed, her husband felt unequipped to care for us alone. Thank heavens HOPE stepped in and found us a foster meowmy to cherish us like our first meowmy until we can find another home. Now I’m ready to bring my gentle, loving disposition and friendly “hulk” to cuddle with my forever family. Could that be you? Arrange to meet me today. Although Waffle and I are available separately, if you’re looking for a pair of affectionate gents, please consider adopting us together. We can keep each other company while you’re at work or on vacation, and with Waffle and Pancake in your family, you’ll never be hungry at breakfast again! HOPE ID 25-0704-G176 Pancake’s $125 adoption fee includes spay/neuter, basic vaccines, microchip and registration, testing for FIV/FeLV, negative fecal test, and preventative treatment against fleas and parasites.
