Story
Rose is a very vocal cat. She is also incredibly loving. I got her at the ACS but I cannot currently care for her anymore due to my first cat not liking her and not having enough experience with special needs cats. She has a disability that impairs her ability to walk and jump but she has gotten a lot better at navigation. She is one year and nine months old.

Story
Luna is 4 years old. She was born in early March of 2022. We adopted her from a local shelter here in San Antonio. We believe she was the runt of the litter (she weighs just under 10 lbs), but she has always had a clean bill of health. She is very friendly and playful! We are hoping to find her a new home where she will be well loved and cared for.

I found this male cat at the beginning of May and I posted everywhere for over a week with no responses so I took him to a clinic and had him neutered and vaccinated. I am elderly. I cannot keep him in my apartment complex. It’s a violation of my lease. I really need to find him a good home. He’s very sweet and clean.

I adopted Brady from the City of San Antonio Animal Care Services on Texas State Highway 151 in July 2026. Brady is approximately 2 years old, very playful, and loves to be petted. Unfortunately, I can no longer care for Brady as I am moving soon. I need someone to take care of my cat.Brady received his last rabies vaccine on 4/23/26, so he is up to date!

Story
Jordan is a loving playful boy with just a month until his 1st birthday. Ive been on a wait list for shots and neuter for quite a while. However my medical conditions have become so severe I am about to be totally disabled. He deserves a home that he can be taken care of properly. There is no reason for an adoption fee as i've not been able to provide his shots or neutering. Litterbox trained, Born and raised indoors. I was present for his birth June 16th 2025 at 3AM as moms little head laid in my hand and he entered this tough world. He has NO mean bone in his body. He genuinely just wants to nap and play. Refuses to cause trouble or engage when or if my other 2 girls play too hard. Hes such a sweetheart. Will provide food. Box and litter if taken in. Please, help me help my baby boy.

Story
Sydney has been in my care for less than a month due to her previous owner, a neighbor at my apartment complex, leaving her behind. I am unable to care for her due to my son being allergic to cats as well as relocating to a new home that does not allow pets of any kind. Sydney is a sweet and friendly girl; she has been around other cats with no issues as well as people from all ages ranging from infants to adults and she has been nothing but calm and friendly. I do not have any information regarding her vaccination or medical history as her previous owner did not provide it prior to leaving her behind however she does appear extremely healthy as she is a healthy weight, and she has shown no signs of any sign of sickness or conditions such as difficulty eating or using the litter box. She is home trained and uses the litterbox consistently. Sydney is overall a sweet and loving girl and I hope to find her a lasting home soon.

Story
Two sweet sibling kittens looking for a loving home 🤍 These two adorable kittens are siblings and were born on March 31. They are healthy, playful, sweet, and very loving. They enjoy being around people and would make a wonderful addition to a family. We truly care about them, but because of our busy schedule, we are not able to give them the time and attention they deserve. We are hoping to find them a safe, loving, and responsible home. They can be adopted together, which would be ideal since they are siblings, but we are open to the right home.

Story
It has taken years of training, products and patience to come to this devastating conclusion. I will not let her go to just anyone which is why the rehoming fee is so high. As you see, she is a black cat and I need to make sure she will be loved. Winnie is the sweetest most entertaining cat I’ve ever had. She will greet at the door when you get home and lick your toes, ankles, any exposed skin until you pay her attention. She’s got both eyes but one of them got infected before I got her and she lost sight in the right eye. I truly forget because she never acts like she’s blind in one eye. She’s very playful and I think she’d enjoy other animals but those animals must be energetic and playful. She does not enjoy my calm non-playful cat because she just wants to play with her. She’ll cuddle with you at night but I hope you don’t move because she doesn’t lol she sleeps hard and she snores. She’s my little old man.
