Story
About 2 1/2 years old Skittish around dogs & new people, takes time (and food bribes) to warm up Doesn’t fight directly with other cats, but keeps to himself Has never been around kids, but still has kitten energy and loves to play so would probably enjoy it after getting over being shy We found him outside as a kitten and couldn’t bear to leave him. There have been problems with keeping him and our other cats together and happy since then. He doesn’t fight, but isn’t comfortable being active at the same time they are, unless it’s early morning and there's food involved. He can be messy around the litterbox and pees in front of it sometimes, which I believe is a territorial issue since he doesn’t do it when the litterbox is freshly clean & unused. Our other cats are clean freaks and the messes cause fights He loves bouncy balls and pistachio shells, and playing rough. Once he likes you he gets clingy. I love him and wish we could keep him but it's getting to be too much for us all.

Story
Tinker is a sweet and beautiful kitten who came into this world on February 22, 2024. She is a sweet and gentle kitten who needs a good home where she can be properly cared for and become a part of someones family. Due to the severity in overpopulation with my cats, I simply cannot afford to care for Tinker and her siblings. I fear of leaving her at a shelter only to be euthanized if no one adopts her.

Tabby is approximately 6-7 weeks of age. He is a pretty healthy cat and playful. Due to my financial situation, I cannot care for him and need someone who will love and provide him with the care he needs. He is not vaccinated but is overall a healthy cat. I am in Galena Park, Texas. Please contact me if you are interested. TIA

Story
Tiger is between 6-7 weeks. He is a playful little guy who is good around other pets. I am rehoming him due to my financial situation. I am not looking for a fee as I would love this kitten to go to a good home where he receives the love and care he deserves. He is not vaccinated but is a healthy kitten overall. Please contact me at (xxx) xxx-xxxx if you are interested, TIA.
