Story
Looking for a Loving Home for Ticket 🐾 Ticket is a gentle, playful cat who was found abandoned and has been thriving in foster care. She’s affectionate, silly, and loves cuddling, sunbathing, and watching the world from a window. She can be shy at first but warms up beautifully with patience. Her foster caregiver has severe allergies and can’t keep her long‑term, so we’re looking for a stable, caring home where she can be the only cat. She does well with kids 14+. If you’re interested or want more info, please reach out by phone, text, or email. Videos are available. If I contact you and don’t hear back within three days, I’ll assume you’re no longer interested. Thank you for helping Ticket find her forever home.

Story
This is Starfire. She is a sweet orange tabby that loves everyone *including other cats*. She is 8 months, so she’s still a baby. She is spayed and up to date on vaccinations. She’s very much an orange tabby so she’s very rambunctious, love to play, and she very much loves to cuddle. She lovessss food and is very vocal when I am preparing it. She loves rubbing her head on feet *it is her favorite past time* but she also likes biting feet, so beware. She loves climbing things, but she is not too bright. That’s the main reason I’m rehoming her. I have a lot of high areas in my house that I can’t block off, and she is a little Houdini with everything that I do block off. So I would recommend a home that has safe climbing options just in case she decides to risk her life . She is extremely curious and loves checking out new areas. I fully believe she would love to be on a harness and be outside *she does show a lot of interest when I go on my balcony/open my front door*

Story
Beautiful, sweet four year-old female in need of rehoming. She is amazing with people, just does not get along with other animals. Great with kids! My brother got her in California before being reassigned from the Navy, he brought her to live with us and we have had her for a couple of months and she has just not warmed up to the other cats at all. She gets mad and isolates herself and it is very sad. We just want her to be happy and get all of the attention she needs!

Story
Fostered Papaya to prevent her from getting euthanized at the shelter due to lack of space. She has been spayed, but no shots to my knowledge. She is very sweet, cuddly, and people-loving! I will not be able to keep her in my dorm this year, so I’m looking for someone to adopt her and give her the comfort of a permanent family.

Story
Hi! My name is Tinker Bell, but my foster mum calls me Tink (like Peter Pan did in the movie). I'm a short-haired kitten with brown tabby markings & green/gold eyes. I was surrendered to my foster mom (thru no fault of mine) when my previous family was unable to care for me. Now I would like to find a fyrever with someone who is nice & will play with me as much as possible as I am still a kitten. I have been to the vet and he says I am 8 months old - est. DOB 3/4/24. I have been spayed and have all my shots. My rabies vaccination is current & my foster mom has a spay certificate for me. My FIV/Leukemia test was negative. YAY!! My ideal furever home would be with someone who has a cat friendly dog that will play with me. I think I would be okay with another cat, my foster mom.has several but I'm separated from them because they don't like to play. I'm very active, remember I am still a kitten and sometimes I play rough as I dont.have another friend to play with. My previous family had a dog (approx. 40 lbs) that I played with. I also play with toys and definitely need a good scratching post and maybe a cat tree too. I have been inside since living with my foster mom so I really need to continue to do so. I didn't like it outside- I got wet and cold also other things (animals) that scared me. It's nice to have my own space so I feel safe and comfortable. Do you want to be my new pet parent? Can you give me the love, attention and treats all the time? If so I would love to meet you. Please contact Sandi 512-779-3278 in Kingsland. Minimum donation of $100 applies, representing a portion of the cost of her veterinary care and food
