Domestic Longhair kittens & cats in Indianola, Iowa

Petra (female) born 04/2020 Petra is an independent young cat that could spend hours watching birds out the window. She is a vertical cat that enjoys climbing to heights to find a cozy place to rest. She will need to be the only pet in the household.

murphy (male) born 1/2022 - FeLV+ murphy arrived to us after testing positive for feline leukemia through a spay/neuter program. he is a quiet gentleman that prefers attention on his terms…until nighttime hits. murphy is a night owl that is most active when the sun goes down. this beautiful, long haired cat is looking for the right fit.

Spookaloo is 7 years old. He is a sweet boy who just wants snuggles. He loves to rub faces and follow you around the house. He will herd you to his food dish if he can see the bottom, even if there's still enough food in there to last for a week. He loves to go outside, but only under the cover of darkness. He will come back in within an hour every time. He gets anxious in new places. And will probably hide for the first week he's in your home. He does not get along with dogs and it's very rare he likes another cat. He does well with kids, but does not like to be played rough with. Rehoming due to an upcoming move and time away from home. The time away from home can be up to two weeks at a time. I want him to go to a home where his love cup will be filled daily and he can live out his days in comfort. I'm hoping I can find him a home through here. I do not want to put him in a shelter.

- A gorgeous, gentle, shy sweetheart who will need time to settle into her new home- Once she is comfortable, she enjoys sitting next to you and will accept lots of pets and chin scrtiches- Has a loud purr that she likes to share- Enjoys using a cat tree with an enclosed area- Has a lot of love to give and will be a wonderful companion for a quiet person or two who will allow her to settle in at her own slow pace. It took several weeks for her to become comfortable with her foster family, so plan on giving her a few weeks in her new home, too. She is worth the wait! - Young, busy children are too much for her, so she is looking for a mature home-Will be a wonderful friend for a calm, patient person who loves the quiet life just like she does- Was fearful when he arrived at the shelter, but he has been coming out of her shell and is a total sweetheart with the people she feels comfortable with- Has corneal scarring in her left eye (more info at ARL)This cat can be fearful and may need extra time to adjust to a new home. We've seen good progress here at the ARL, but don't be surprised if it takes several weeks for this cat to become comfortable in a new place. This cat may hide and just observe at first - maybe for quite a while - and that is perfectly normal. Young children are too much for this cat right now, so we are highly recommending a quiet, mature home. We are happy to provide post-adoption resources. If you can give this cat extra time, patience and TLC, please consider adopting! It will be so rewarding to watch them gain confidence and start enjoying all the good things in life!All adoptable cats and kittens are spayed/neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccinations (rabies and FVRCP as appropriate for their age) Primary Color: Black Weight: 8.38 Age: 1yrs 1mths 2wks

- Big cat with a personality to match - Gives head bumps when he wants scratches and attention, and will also let you know when he's done; will do great with someone who understands cat body language- Loves to talk - a cat lover's cat! This cat has shown signs of overstimulation while in the shelter. Lots of handling, playing with hands, and excessive petting can cause them to overstimulate, which can result in scratching and/or biting. This cat is looking for experienced cat owners who will watch this cat's body language while interacting to note signs of overstimulation (tail waving, fur rippling, dilated pupils, ears turned back and quick body movements) and be willing to respect their boundaries. This cat will also benefit from interactive toys such as wands and ball spinners while playing. We are happy to speak with you more when you visit and can provide post-adoption resources. If you can give this cat mental stimulation, patience and space when they need it, please consider adopting! They would love to be your sidekick and buddy for life!All adoptable cats and kittens are spayed/neutered, microchipped and up to date on vaccinations (rabies and FVRCP as appropriate for their age) Primary Color: Brown Tabby Age: 3yrs 0mths 2wks
