Domestic Longhair kittens & cats in New Philadelphia, Ohio

Nico came to the rescue from a home where he lived with multiple cats, but had almost no human interaction. He was so severely matted that he had to be shaved while sedated. This is the reason for his new wave hairstyle! Due to his background, Nico is still learning to trust people. He is just beginning to learn that being petted is a pretty good thing. Nico is looking for a forever home that will be patient with him while he blossoms into the cat he is meant to be. Could this be you?

Kitten alert! Meet Cherry. Cherry arrived at the rescue with her mom and siblings and is still feeling things out.

If you think you have what it takes, come meet Cherry!

Sadie was my Mom’s cat. Mom passed away at the end of Feb. We did try integrating her and her brother with my own cats. It failed badly as Sadie and her brother are front declawed. My cats are not and mine are being very territorial. Sadie is miserable and she and her brother Sammie, also up for rehoming need a safe home where they can thrive. They were born in April 2021 and were bottle fed by my Mom. They are very shy and were used to life with an elderly person in a quiet home. But they were very attached to her, and for her they were great lap cats.

Meet Marisol and Maximus! These two sweet babies came to us when a person who does TNR had them at the clinic and afterwards they were going to be dropped off at a barn. We saw their faces and knew they were destined for so much more! When they first came to us, Mary and Max were extremely shy but still welcomed love and pets. Over time, this bonded pair have become complete love bugs. Sometimes at a loud noise, new stimulus, or new people they still cower away for a few minutes- but they’re sure to come back around and get as close as they can to you. We wouldn’t describe these two as lap cats, but definitely velcro cats! When you enter their space they come up to you curiously seeking pets and affection. Mary is fairly confident in herself and doesn’t get spooked as often and Max. She’ll walk up, present herself, and demand you give her scritches. She has such a calm, cool, and collected demeanor about her. Max can be slightly more apprehensive than Mary, but he will under all circumstances chase you around with his tail shaking in anticipation of getting love. Although he seems timid initially, he in particular loves hard and firm pets and scratches. He’ll lean into your hands and hope you don’t pull away… ever lol. These two absolutely adore each other and where you’ll find one, you’ll find the other. They like to nap, play, eat, and snuggle together all day every day! They’re still fairly young, but they don’t obtain the high energy most kittens do. They’re quite laid back and prefer to sit on a cat tower with one another or look out the window and gaze at things passing by. Both of these kitties absolutely love other cats! They spend all their time with their foster friends and can’t get enough of them. Due to their more apprehensive nature, we don’t recommend they be placed in a home with children under 8 years of age unless your child truly understand cats spaces, and respecting their bodies and boundaries. They don’t mind being picked up in short increments and it really helps them learn to trust their people when the person doesn’t just abruptly intrude on their space by grabbing, lifting, etc. We recommend a calmer household for these two where they can really blossom into the full version of themselves with a patient and loving owner.
