Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi, I’m Buddy! I know, I know… you love my Christmas tree nose! I hear it often! I am a lot more than my cute nose though! I also have adorable black and white cow spots… a bunny-soft belly of white fur… beautiful white paws with NO CLAWS in my front set which I know you will love!... and the thickest coat of gorgeous fur you ever did feel! You wouldn’t know it by looking, but I am 14 years young and still going STRONG! I am healthy, a great eater, and always use my box perfectly. My owner passed away and my sister and I had lived there for all 14 years of our life. I felt very sad at first, but after staying with my foster for a while, I am ready for the next chapter! I love cheek rubs, neck rubs, and checking out what you are doing. I enjoy a sunny spot and a good window view. I love to be petted and will be a great companion to you. At my foster house I discovered a new creature called a dog… and I am learning to get along. I would prefer low energy dogs please. I like other cats who are nice to me too! I would love to finish my life with someone who loves me. Would you like to meet me? Call 317-714-4700

We always have many available cats up for adoption. There are tons in Carmel at Pawz Pet Cafe and there are always several in the Petco Adoption Room off 116th & Keystone. Since we are a foster-based rescue, many are with a foster, but don't hesitate to contact us.
Meetings can be arranged to meet the kitty of your dreams! We also bring in more groups of cats and kittens to Petco every Saturday from 12-4pm. Come meet our furry friends, wonderful volunteers, and head Cat Rescue Lady, Martha Strong.
Our cats are all spayed/neutered, microchipped, up-to-date on their FVRCP (distemper) vaccines, and given general de-wormer. Most of our cats are FeLV/FIV tested, and rabies shots are given to most cats over 3 months old.

More about this rescue
We are a Federal 501(c)(3) nonprofit feline rescue group established in 2018. We work in many Indiana counties, including Hamilton, Marion, Delaware, and many places in between. We run on 100% volunteers and donations.
Our Mission:
To rescue, rehabilitate, and re-home cats and kittens in need. We aim to educate the public about responsible pet ownership and the importance of spaying and neutering in order to create a community that values the well-being of all cats. And even if we can't help directly, we utilize our contacts and various resources to assist to the best of our ability.
Our Values:
- We are a no-kill rescue. We believe that every cat deserves a chance at life. We do all we can to rehabilitate even the most troubled cats and place them somewhere they can live their best lives.
- We do NOT support or allow declawing of our cats. We sometimes rescue cats that have previously been declawed and may consider placing them with a family that prefers a declaw.
- We require our adoptees to be indoor cats for their safety and well-being.
Our adoption application includes our rescue's terms and policies. If you have any questions, please let us know.
Our Vision:
A society free from the challenges of feline overpopulation, and where responsible pet ownership is second nature. We seek a world where the public is well-informed on animal matters in order to provide the best care for their furry companions.
