Domestic Mediumhair kittens & cats in Jacksonville, North Carolina

I am SUPER sweet and loving and have a great personality! I would be a great family cat - I enjoy cuddles and relaxing, but also enjoy exploring.

Sir Francis was rehomed to us January 2019. He was maybe 3 months. The people who had him prior said he was found and given to them. We rehomed him not realizing how much attention he needed. We work all the time so he spent a lot of time home alone. We haven't had the time or the money for shots or to get him fixed. He's playful, energetic, will cuddle or sleep on you, he bites playfully.

Please note there is no need to complete an adoption questionnaire this  adoption site . We only need our  Adoption Application Questionnaire  completed. January 2024 - Sweet Mama Batts is still available! Learn how to adopt her!  FURR only adopts in the Wilmington/Hampstead NC and surrounding area to approved homes. August 2022 - Another cat showed up at Mr. Batts neighborhood. I’ve already trapped THREE that I still have & he called me to say there was one more! So, I trapped the last one that was another black cat. I took it to the S/N clinic, and when I picked her up in the afternoon, the vet told me that they fixed her, etc., BUT that she had JUST HAD KITTENS VERY RECENTLY!!! I just started to cry. She has now been away from new borns a whole night & day and now she has just had surgery! I told the vet I would have to let her go if the babies had ANY chance of survival & pray to GOD I haven’t caused kittens to die! This “Mama Batts” kitty was tiny & skinny. She, in NO WAY, looked pregnant or to be nursing. The vet said I could let her go after a few hours after surgery….and again, I was just in tears. I HATE it when this happens & you catch & fix a feral cat that has KITTENS!! So, I rushed to PetSmart, with Mama Batts in the car, left the car running, and bought my first GPS collar. I had to figure out how to program it, get it on a collar & get it on HER. I got all that done, released her after a few hours, called my sister to come sit with me. Mama Batts took us to an old abandoned boat & there, inside, were 5 new born black kittens!!! They were barely alive & still had umbilical cords on them & they couldn’t have been more than a couple days old. I got the kittens out of the boat & put them in a small carrier. Then using the kittens as bait, backed up a trap to the carrier & re-trapped Mama Batts who went right in to get to her babies. One of the babies had terribly infected eyes & even after Kristy & Patty took it to the vet for me (I was in the hospital), it ended up passing away. My heart was broken, but I am grateful for all trying to save it. I paid to have the little one cremated & added to the FURR cremation box with our still much loved FURR friends from the past. Mama Batts & her 4 kittens have since been in my bathroom. The kittens are 4 weeks old now, all black & adorable little black bear cubs! If someone takes Mama Batts along with a kitten (or 2), special pricing, food & free vet care provided for 6 months! Mama Batts is short haired shiny black, very young (probably not even 1 yr yet) and healthy! She is already spayed, shots, tested, microchipped, etc. All vetting comes with the kittens at the appropriate age. Mama Batts is shy, but loves to be petted, rubbed & getting better & better about being picked up. She has had it rough & deserves so much love! As of January 2023, 1 of her kittens was adopted last November and 2 males and 1 female are still available. See the "Battlet Youngsters" listing for details.

We only need our  Adoption Application Questionnaire  completed.   April 13, 2024 My name is “BUMBLE BEE” and FURR rescued me from a terrible situation!   My BIG bright eyes look just like a bee and my colors too!  I am no bigger than a football and have quite a silly/sassy personality!  After I get to know someone who is sweet and gentle with me, I follow them all around meowing and sticking my tail straight up in the air!  I’m only between 1 and 2 years old and I love belly rubs.  They tell me that I’ve probably had a litter of kittens before!  I wonder what happened to them?  All I need is a little patience and love to become your little friend!  Come visit me soon.  I would probably prefer no dogs or loud children, but I do just fine with other cats.  If they bother me, I just give them a pop with my paw, but no claws!  Call me “Bee” for short!!!

Please note there is no need to complete an adoption questionnaire this  adoption site . We only need our  Adoption Application Questionnaire  completed. October 15, 2024  My name is AUTUMN!  I’m the funniest, silliest, shiniest, friendliest, most talkative cat you have ever seen!  I am TRULY ONE IN A MILLION!  I’m only about a year old and everyone at FURR loves me!!!  To say I’m a character is putting it mildly…I’m a nut!  I’m just a super “excited to be rescued” kitty!  Come visit & see for yourself.  I’ll tickle your funny bone! June 20, 2024 AUTUMN is such an amazing kitty!   She continues to crack me up every day!  She is nonstop wiggling and nonstop chattering! She can’t be still for 5 minutes so I have to pet and rub her while she is head bunting me or slapping her tail against everything she walks by! Autumn is getting very sleek and healthy! Her sunburned auburn fur is finally turning black.  She loves the kittens but would probably LOVE to be the only queen of the castle! May 2024 – Autumn’s dental surgery was successful  and she’s feeling much better – and happier! We do still need about $1,000 to cover her surgery, so please donate today! April 12, 2024  Autumn is hilarious!    Watch her video! She is so excited to have attention that she can’t stop wiggling!  She is doing well, upper respiratory has cleared up from her antibiotics and eating her mushy food well! Her dental is scheduled for mid May.  We are on the waiting list to get in sooner.  Her mouth is horrible with rotten teeth and painful red gums. We need $2,000 to cover her expenses!!!  We’ve raised a small amount, but we have a long way to go.  Please share with anyone you know that might want to help! Autumn is extremely grateful for the help!  Another special rescue cat that would have died left outside on her own. Also, here (feature photo above) is a cute pic of her peeking out of her little house! April 5, 2024  Here is Terry’s latest Urgent Rescue & Rehabilitation story about “Autumn”, named after the area where Terry found her. Please click our  Donate  button on the right today to help us with the veterinary bills (current and upcoming)! Here is the story of Terry rescuing Autumn and giving her much needed TLC. I got a call from a lady in Wilmington, NC.  Her neighbor moved away and left outdoor feral cats to survive on their own.  It was a bad and sad situation. The cats were hanging out at this lady’s house (the lady that called me), using her yard as a litter box, getting on their cars and one of the cats scratched their dog and caused a large vet bill.  I believe she said her dog killed that one. So she and her husband wanted the cats gone ASAP. I did the best I could calling and making contacts with Wilmington rescue groups with no luck.  No one could help.  It’s really not my territory since I’m overwhelmed in my own area. But, once you know of abandoned animals, it’s hard to erase it from your mind. The lady thought there were 3 cats left.  I finally found a place for the cats to go (a long way away) and it was sheer luck that they had only a couple of openings. So I trapped the first 2 cats, took them to the vet (as the rescue requested) and then drove them out to the rescue with updated shots, flea/parasite treatment, etc.  The first 2 cats cost FURR $240. I went the next day back to trap the final 3rd cat.  I got that one and dropped it off at the vet for the same vet work as the other 2.  All 3 of these cats were TNR from a prior year, so at least they were already fixed and ear tipped. BUT, I got a call from the vet saying that this feral cat had a bad Upper Respiratory Infection and a totally infected mouth, gums and teeth! This cat needs at least 2 weeks of meds, syringe feeding before the dental surgery. Autumn’s initial veterinary exam cost  an additional  $250. Autumn’s dental bill will be an additional $1,500. I put her in my garage so I could care for her.  It only took a couple hours to get her purring and making biscuits…unbelievable.  I think she has been starving and hurting for a while.  This poor kitty, in pain and hungry, had a soft blanket, soft food, sweet voices and rubs.  She totally transformed. Please help us help sweet Autumn via the secure, easy Donate button on the right! Please pray for this kitty.  The soonest dental appointment I could get for her at Sound Cat is a month away. If anyone has time to make phone calls to area vet’s to find one that works with rescues, could charge us less and get “Autumn” in earlier, I would be so grateful!!! Thank you all so much for well wishes and prayers!  I’ve got my work cut out for me…. Terry Post navigati November 4, 2024, 1:04 pm
