American Shorthair kittens & cats in Whitewater, Wisconsin

Yuki is a 7 year old tortoiseshell. She can be a bit standoffish at first but once she warms up to you she can be a real cuddlebug. She loves to play with the feathers on a stick and pretty much any toy with feathers. She does have the tortie spice though!

Emma is super affectionate and plays well with other cats Shes adventurous and like going outside and doesn't run off but will explore. She's almost silver in some lighting. My heart hurts that I have to let her go and I only hope to find her the best home possible. She requires a high fiber diet. Absolutely loves water and will get in the shower with you if you let her. She's the softest cat ever litterly. She was born on 09/06/2018. She is microchiped and has her front claws removed.

Name: AshleyBreed: ShorthairDOB: 07/29/2021Good with kids: YesGood with dogs: YesGood with cats: YesFoster location: Baraboo, WI Adoption fee: $25 eachFun Bio: Mary Kate & Ashley are twin girls who are BEYOND ready for their forever home! They have been waiting for their forever story now since September of 2021! They have quite literally grown up in foster care, and were adopted once but kept in a laundry room then returned for not being social enough. These girls may be shy, they may be more timid than most want, but they are NOT meant for the outdoor life. They are far too big of divas! They LOVE to play their kitty games on the iPad. They love snoozing in the comfiest spots. These posh girls just need a place to call their own. They are extremely friendly with other kitties but will hide from dogs. They will take time to warm up, but with the right adopter we know you will love them!!! To try and find the perfect home we are willing to give an exceptional adoption discount so PLEASE inquire today! If interested in a pet from us please fill out the adoption application that is located on our website.  We process applications in the order in which they are received.  We will likely not respond to interest emails regarding puppies and/or kittens, we get so many "interest" emails that we simply do not have the time to respond to each one.  We always recommend playtime, positive reinforcement training and a regular schedule for feeding times when bringing a new cat/kitten into your home. Adjustment takes time for both you and your new family member, so remember to be patient and enjoy this new and exciting time!Included in the adoption fee are age appropriate vaccinations, FeLV/FIV testing, deworming, spay or neuter surgery, and microchip.Anti-Declawing Policy:All cats and kittens will have a no declaw policy in their adoption contract with us!  Declawing is a series of bone amputations.  Declawing is more accurately described by the term de-knuckling and is not merely the removal of the claws, as the term “declawing” implies.  In humans, fingernails grow from the skin, but in animals that hunt prey, the claws grow from the bone; therefore, the last bone is amputates so the claw cannot re-grow.  Declawing is one of the most painful, routinely performed procedures in all of veterinary medicine.  Each toe of the cat is amputated at the first joint.  Declawing a cat is equivalent in a person to amputating the entire first knuckle of every finger. Declawing is done strictly for the benefit of the owner.  There are NO benefits to the cat and NO good reasons to declaw.Declawing can lead to behavior changes.  A declawed cat has no way to defend itself and may resort to biting more often.  Due to pain, they may stop using the litterbox. There are humane alternatives to declawing.  Cats can be trained to use scratching posts.  They should have their nails trimmed regularly.  There is double sided sticky tape that can be put on furniture to deter a cat from scratching there.  There are also nail caps called Soft Paws that are glued onto a cat’s nails without harm.  ##1214821##

Name: ConchaBreed: ShorthairDOB: 11/07/2018 Good with kids: YesGood with dogs: YesGood with cats: YesFoster location: Berwyn, ILAdoption fee: $50Fun Bio: Poor Concha. She has been waiting SO LONG (almost a year and a half now) for the right person to find her. Concha is a young girl who was living on the street, but then demanded a warm, safe environment, and pushed her way into someone's home and then eventually found her way to R&R.  At first, her rescuer thought she was pregnant as her belly appeared round. Nope! Concha was so underweight and thin, once she finally had access to food, it was determined it was just a "food baby" in her belly! She is happy now that she is in a warm home with lots of love and delicious food and particularly loves tube treats! Concha can be sweet and affectionate but can be a bit of a diva. She thinks she is a queen and expects to be treated as such! She loves to snuggle (on her terms), likes belly rubs, and loves to sit in boxes. She's truly a great girl, just needs someone who will understand her. She's been so patient and is ready for her forever home! Is it with you?

Korra was born in April 2023, and I adopted her in November. She's young, playful, energetic, and affectionate. She's motion fixated, so she prefers playing with wands over static toys. She likes to be around people and will follow you around the house. Korra is bigger at around 9lbs, but not overweight. She doesn't have any medical or dietary issues. I don't know for sure, but as a bolder and physical cat, I think she'd be good around large and medium sized dogs. She shouldn't be in houses with other cats or small children. Our problem is that she fixates on and constantly play attacks our older cat. It's not violent, but it's leading to health problems for the older cat. We've tried re-introducing them and giving Korra lots of play, but she's always interested in the other cat. I suspect Korra would be the same with small children and small dogs, persisting in unwelcome play attacks. We haven't had other issues and she's otherwise a sweet cat.
