Story
Large Fry is a cute male kitten who was brought to the HSOV on July 30th 2026 by a Good Samaritan who found Large Fry and his three siblings (Birthday Cake, Obtuse, and Rubber Goose) and an adult cat (Chocolate Shake) who is most likely the kittens' mother. This little family was left overnight at that Good Samaritan's home in Macksburg Ohio sometime between 5pm and 9pm. Large Fry has a pale brown tabby medium-haired coat with a patch of white on his chest, white paws, a long ringed tail, and a beautiful kitten face with golden eyes, a brown velvet nose, and long white whiskers. Large Fry was given vaccinations, flea treatment. and Drontal wormer on August 1st 2026. He weighed 3.2 lbs that day. Large Fry was given booster vaccines on August 15th . He has also been given Pyrantel wormer and Panacur. This little dollbaby has an affectionate disposition and a playful, outgoing personality. Large Fry and his three brothers (Birthday Cake, Obtuse, and Rubber Goose) have shared a cage since their arrival and are best buddies who provide comfort/security and playtime for one another. These photos of Large Fry were taken on October 11th 2026 when HSOV Feline Kennel Techs Lauryn Hamilton, Haley McClain, and one of newest kitty kennel techs assisted Large Fry with his 'big boy' pictures. This little sweetheart was a pleasure to watch while he pranced playful around and engaged in playtime with the young ladies who have taken such wonderful care of him. Large Fry will be neutered on October 12th 2026 and has an approved adoption application, so he has a loving home waiting for him after he is neutered. Large Fry was neutered on October 12th 2026 and was also given rabies vaccine. He weighed 4.2 lbs that day.

Story
Have you ever climbed a sticky pine tree? Well I have, and that’s how I got my name, Piney. and I was born in June and when I was just a young lad, I was playing with my brothers and sisters and climbed up a pine tree and managed to get that sticky pine sap all over my belly. Once it dried, I had clumps on my tummy that took a couple of weeks to get cleaned up. Since then, I’ve been much better behaved and contain my energy to playing and rolling around with my other kitten brothers and sisters and our toys. My mom says I have the shiniest black coat that she’s ever seen and she just loves to pet me all the way from my head to my tail! Mom tells me I’m an affection junkie, but that it’s ok cuz I’m so handsome! I can really make some noise purring when she pets me! Sometimes she has to pet one of my sisters or brothers and I don’t really like it so much and I try to push everyone out of my way. I want her lap all to myself! I bet if you took me home, I could fill you heart with all of this personality and be your shiny Piney! Our kitten adoption fee is $85 fully vetted....but we are offering a very special deal to our kitten lovers. You can double the fun by adopting TWO of our fully vetted kittens for an adoption fee of only $125! Kittens always do better in pairs so have some fun and share the love with 2 kitties for one low adoption fee! Save Ohio Strays does not have a shelter. Our pets are integrated into their foster homes who can tell you all about them to make the transition into your home informative and supportive. Our first step to adopt is always our online application at saveohiostrays.org. Save Ohio Strays does NOT claim or guarantee any breeds given in this description. These are best guess descriptions for breed. SOS NEVER ships pets and will not adopt out to a driving radius greater than 3 hours from Medina, Ohio.

Story
My name is Charlotte. I was born in June and I’m not your average little girl kitty. See, I am the smallest kitten in my litter, but I don’t let that hold me back. I’m the tomboy in the bunch! I have 4 bigger brothers and to see us chasing each other and rolling around, you wouldn’t even know I’m a little girl! But don’t let that fool you because sure, I can be a tomboy, but I can also be the sweetest little snuggler you’d ever want to see. Kind of like the girl that can wear a pair of jeans and get dirty but can also put on a string of pearls and charm the boys! Once I decide it’s time to rest, the first place I head is next to one of my humans. I just love to tuck myself in as close as I can or get on a lap, take a quick little bath and settle into a well deserved catnap while my humans pet me and make me purr into dreamland. I would love to tuck myself next to you and charm my way into your heart! Our kitten adoption fee is $85 fully vetted....but we are offering a very special deal to our kitten lovers.

Story
Hi everyone, my name is Ace and I was born in June. My mom says she gave me that name because I apparently “understood the assignment” and am such a handsome boy kitty! When I’m not busy playing with my brothers and our toys, I really enjoy investigating all the fun things in this world that move! I’m also a bit of a people watcher…those humans are strange creatures for sure! They are always trying to entice me to jump up in their laps so they can smother me with a bunch of affection but I make them wait until I’m done playing. I won’t tell them this, but once I jump up with them and they start petting me, it makes me so happy that my motor starts running in LOUD mode!! Oooohh, it’s so nice. Sometimes I like to flop down on the floor when they’re walking by and make them bend over to pet me!! That just let’s them know who’s in charge! Haha If you would have room in your lap for me, I could show you what an Ace I’d be at winning your heart!

Story
*COURTESY POST* Please note, this kitty is not being fostered by Blue's Mews. If you're interested in them or would like more information, please email Lauren at pelanxc@gmail.com! Charlie is a spunky little girl with endless energy! She loves to follow around her people to see what they are doing. The moment a feather toy comes out, she is LOCKED in. She will play until she can’t possibly play anymore, and then she will demand back scratches and cuddles from you after! Although she is small, she is never going to forget when dinner is, and she will be right there when you are ready to feed her! She can be a little skittish at first with cuddles, but she will have no problem coming up to say hello! She loves back and ear scratches the most. She only has experience around adults and other cats, but with the proper introductions I’m sure could be happy in any home. She should be adopted into a multi-cat household (or with at least one of her two brothers available too!). She is spayed, microchipped, is FeLV/FIV negative, and received the following vaccines: 1 year rabies, 2 FVRCP, feline leukemia. Charlie is approximately 5 months old. *COURTESY POST* Please note, this kitty is not being fostered by Blue's Mews.

Void is a spunky kitty who enjoys cuddling with his people and absolutely LOVES any chance to play. He is a sucker for wand toys, puzzle toys, and sitting near the window watching the birds go by. He loves to wrestle with his kitty siblings, and when they aren’t in the mood, a kick toy will do! He loves to greet his humans right when they walk through the door, never misses a meal time, and will melt your heart with his big kitten eyes. He only has experience around adults and other cats, but with the proper introductions I’m sure could be happy in any home. He should be adopted into a multi-cat household (or with at least one of his two siblings available too!)
