Story
Poe is a two year old long-haired female Tennessee Rex. Look up the breed if you've never heard of it! Poe has a beautiful orange wavy coat that sparkles in the light. She's got big ears and the cutest little triangular face. She's a very sweet girl that would thrive in a low stress environment where she is the only animal soaking up your attention. She's not fond of other animals at all. Poe is quite timid at first, so she'll need a bit to settle in. She loves chasing around her favorite toys, lounging near windows, and following you around as she pleases. Poe's diet consists of only wet food, water, toppers, and treats--no kibble. All potential adopters must be at least 21.

These cats are in Dallas, Texas too!

Story
Meet Christmas - Christmas is a truly special, 5 yr old, declawed Persian beauty. She had some matting in her coat, so she had a very cute lion. Her fur has since grown back beautifully and is now incredibly soft, thanks to daily brushing and gentle care. Christmas is exceptionally sweet and affectionate. She loves being close to her people and happily sleeps in bed with us at night. She enjoys calm companionship, gentle affection, and a predictable routine. Her eyes are cleaned daily, and she takes all of this loving care in stride—she truly thrives on attention and bonding time. Christmas does not get along with other animals and feels safest as the only pet in the home. In a quiet, pet-free environment, she blossoms into a loving, devoted companion. She does have a slight heart murmur, which can be common in Persians, but it does not take away from how wonderful and loving she is. Christmas is strictly an indoor cat and deserves a safe, calm home with someone who understands her needs and will cherish her for the rest of her life. Christmas has so much love to give and is looking for a gentle, attentive owner who will make her feel secure and adored. If you’re searching for a loyal, affectionate companion who will fill your home with warmth every day of the year, Christmas is ready to be your forever girl. For inquiries on adopting, please email DallasCatLadyInfo@gmail.com. You must be over 25 to adopt with proof of ID. Adoption Fee is $300 and helps cover care and vetting done. We only adopt in the Dallas Metroplex, if you're not in this area, please check your local shelters and pet stores for the local rescues they work with. ##2644941##

Story
Champagne hasn’t had the easiest start in life. When she arrived in our care from a neglectful situation in August 2025, she was severely matted, dangerously underweight, and so weak we weren’t sure she would survive. At only 4.1 pounds, she was truly skin and bones. Thanks to months of intensive veterinary care, including frequent bloodwork, multiple rounds of B12 injections, and endless TLC in her foster home, Champagne has made an incredible comeback. Now weighing a petite but steady 5.3 pounds, she’s a completely different cat. The frail, lethargic kitty we first met has blossomed into a playful, energetic, and delightfully opinionated little lady. Personality & Daily Life Champagne is what we like to call a “proximity cat.” She wants to be near her people and will happily curl up near you on the couch (bonus points if there’s a soft blanket), but she’s not a traditional lap cat or “cuddle bug”. She has strong preferences and isn’t shy about expressing them. Affection, Her Way: Champagne enjoys attention on her own terms. Belly rubs are a firm no, and if boundaries are crossed, she will make her feelings known. Trust Takes Time: Because of her history, she is wary of being handled. Wiping her eyes, brushing her coat, or cleaning her ears requires a patient, confident hand. Once she trusts you, she "tolerates" these things, but you have to earn that privilege. Playtime Queen: Laser pointers and spring toys are her absolute favorites. You’ll often find her perched at the highest level of the cat tower, where she can keep an eye on the world. Her Ideal Home Champagne currently lives with an adult, and two kitty foster brothers (ages 3 and 6). She needs a home with at least one other feline friend. She loves to play tag, chasing her brothers and being chased back is the highlight of her day. We’re searching for a very specific match to ensure Champagne continues to thrive: Adults-only home: She does best in a calm, predictable environment without young children. Experienced adopters: Prior Persian experience is strongly preferred. Her grooming needs and nuanced personality require someone who understands and appreciates the breed. A Note on Adoption Champagne has fought hard for her second chance. We have invested months of love and medical care into saving her life, and we are fiercely protective of her future. Applications will be thoughtfully and carefully reviewed. We aren’t looking for just any home—we’re looking for the right one: a home that honors her boundaries, understands her needs, and cherishes her resilient, spicy spirit. ##2459953##

Story
Hi there, my name is Dada. I’m a four-year-old, snow-white, male Persian cat with a princely personality and striking good looks to match. I am deaf and front-declawed. Though I can not hear, I experience the world in vivid detail and live each day with vibrant spirit. Like the absurd, nonsensical art movement I was named after, I bring a touch of whimsy to everyday life.     I am full of sweetness with a side of cheeky charm. I show my affection in roguish ways. I’ll hop on your lap during bathroom breaks and supervise your toothbrushing routine. I’ll rearrange your personal affects and like magic, make your socks disappear. I’ll lick your toes until I can’t resist and must get a little nibble.     I’m a jester in fur, and my curiosity knows no bounds. Once the game begins, I’ll chase, pounce, and hunt with all my might. A flick of a wand toy unleashes my inner acrobat, and spiral toys send me into joyful twirls and leaps. When the zoomies hit, I run like the wind—sometimes so fast that I crash into walls, only to bounce back undeterred. I’m a high-jumper who lands with theatrical thuds, and vacuums? I fear them not.   I’ll trot at your heels until the call of my own fanciful world lures me away. When that happens, you might find me at the window, contemplating the flora, fauna, and neighbor. Or perhaps, I’ll be at the mirror, marveling at my reflection. After all, if you were this beautiful, you’d call yourself a masterpiece too!     I have an independent streak, and I’m just as stubborn as I am sweet. I don’t take ‘no’ for an answer—partly because I can’t hear you, but mostly because I’m that determined. Luckily, I’m so convincingly cute that you won’t mind giving in! Call me a musician, because I’ll happily play you like a fiddle!   When the day winds down, you’ll find me lounging by your side, mesmerized by bird videos on YouTube. I’m a perfect mix of mischief and merriment, keeping every day lively and fun.     *I have litter box quirks and avoidance issues. I am on a prescription urinary diet to support my needs. With a calm and predictable routine, I’ve made great progress. I am looking for a patient and understanding adopter to help me be my best. With the right environment and plenty of loving care, I’ll continue to thrive—and keep life delightfully interesting!November 4, 2025, 2:36 pm
