Story
Buggles is a 6 yr old black cat. He’s a playful guy, enjoys any toys he can throw around, especially ones with feathers! He will play all night with the zoomies. He loves his food and treats. Buggles loves attention, and will be all over his human when they walk in the room looking for pets, but does not like to be held or picked up. He also has the cutest little front teeth that look like fangs. He snuggles and sleeps in small beds or even Amazon boxes. Buggles is more dominant, so if there are other cats, he will take the lead. The adoption donation for Buggles is 125. This donation helps to cover veterinary expenses including spay/neuter, microchip and vaccinations. Wish Upon a Rescue is a 501(c)3 non-profit, foster based animal rescue. If you would like to meet please complete our adoption questionnaire at www.wishuponarescue.org/adopt.

Her name is Sabrina. She's a family cat that multiple of us have grown to love and care for. A perfect home for her would be one with lots of love and patience. She's a little on the shy side at first but will become more vocal and lively when she gets more comfortable

Story
Salsa is ready to find his forever home! He has officially been in SAYv care for longer than ANY OTHER ANIMAL! :( Do you like your salsa mild? Spicy? Somewhere in the middle? Well... Salsa is a mild salsa. Salsa is a quirky cat that loves to rub your legs when you're feeding him or greet you to say hello. He's a bit timid with fast movements but overall a great cat. Salsa isn't the biggest fan of human interaction unless it's on his terms but we think that would change in a home of his own with just one other kitty friend that wouldn't mind cuddling (he loves to cuddle with his foster siblings). He will occasionally hop onto the couch to say hi, rub your legs and meow at you for food, AND he will let you pick him up. He's treat and catnip CRAZY as his photos show. His favorite place is on the cat towers in his foster's sun room where he reminisces about his previous life. Salsa would do best in a home with another cat and with a patient owner who understands that trust is earned and that he asks for attention when he wants it. He has been introduced to dogs and does okay with them but we would say he doesn't really "like" them but will tolerate them. Salsa would love a home where he can lay on a cat tower and watch the birds, an adopter that will play with a laser pointer, give him tons of treats, catnip and feed him all the delicious yummy food he could want. He truly is a wonderful cat with some quirks. We know the right person is out there for this guy! To learn more or apply to adopt Salsa visit www.sayvanimals.org/adopt

Story
Introducing Jenny! Jenny is a very sweet, young kitty looking for her forever home. She raised three boys and she's ready to live her cat life with you. Jenny loves to play with all types of cat toys from wands to toy mice. She loves sunbathing in windows and reminiscing about her past days in the outside world. She sometimes will meow when a bird comes to a window that she's looking out of :) Jenny enjoys treats, shredded wet food and sleeping on or next to her human. Her routine at night is to perk up on the back on the couch, sun or no sun, and watch TV with her foster family. Jenny would do well as a single cat or with another friendly, easygoing cat. She is cat- and dog-friendly but prefers both to keep their space till she warms up to them and understands their intentions. She can occasionally be caught cuddling one of her foster cat or dog siblings. Jenny will be your shadow, talk to you and sometimes make you think she's going to trip you because she loves to rub against your legs for attention. If you want to add a friendly, sweet and affectionate kitty to your life, Jenny is the one! To learn more about Jenny and apply to adopt her, please visit sayvanimals.org/adopt (PLEASE NOTE: Despite what Petfinder, AdoptaPet and other aggregation services state, the first step in our process is to fill out an adoption application, not submit an inquiry through their online system. Thank you!)

Story
Meet sweet Dolly! Dolly is a charming domestic shorthair cat with a striking tabby coat adorned with the cutest white whiskers. Her emerald green eyes are sure to melt your heart. At first, Dolly can be a little reserved, but once she trusts you, she's a bundle of joy. Her playful and silly side comes to life, and she'll keep you entertained for hours. Dolly absolutely adores gazing out of windows, watching birds, and soaking in the sun. She's known for her acrobatic leaps and graceful pounces when playing with her favorite feather toys. Dolly may not be a typical "lap cat," but she'll happily cuddle up next to her human on the couch, providing comfort and companionship. She has a sweet and gentle nature, making her an ideal furry friend for those seeking a loyal and affectionate companion. Dolly was rescued from a local animal shelter, where she had a rocky start in life. With the love and care of her foster family, she has transformed into a delightful, loving cat. Now, she's looking for her forever home, where she can share her playful spirit and affection with a caring family who will appreciate her for the sweet and unique cat she is. Dolly would thrive in a home with patient and understanding owners who are willing to give her the time she needs to build trust. A family or individual looking for a devoted, playful, and loving companion would be a perfect match. She'll do best in a quiet and relaxed environment where she can enjoy her favorite activities, like watching the world outside and playing with her treasured cat toys. If you're ready to open your heart and home to a loving feline friend, consider giving Dolly a chance. She deserves a forever home where she can be cherished and continue to bring happiness to the lives of those lucky enough to call her their own.

Introducing Chickee, the sassy and beautiful calico girl! Chickee is a fun-loving young adult who is eagerly waiting to find her forever family. Chickee was rescued from the streets of Chicago, but she's more than ready to be your indoor best friend! She is a lover of food and will happily snuggle up to you for endless pets after you've been gone for a long day. Chickee enjoys playing with wand toys, mice toys, and laser pointers, but her favorite pastime is following you around and being your little shadow. She has a bit of a playful tendency with humans so she needs an experienced cat owner that understands these quirks and teaching Chickee that you're not a toy too. Chickee would love a home that can provide her with an outdoor catio or access to lots of windows! Chickee loves chatting with her humans and hopes to find a forever home where she can be the only companion. She's not a fan of other feline friends and we are not too sure about dogs, so she would thrive in a home where she can reign as the only queen of the castle. She does great as a solo cat and she even loves when you are gone for work all day. To apply to adopt Chickee visit www.sayvanimals.org/adopt

With mesmerizing yellow eyes and a silky black coat, Miss Raven is sure to win your heart. Her beauty only pales in comparison to her outgoing personality. This pretty kitty isn't going to be a girl who hides in the shadows- she is a woman on a mission, and she's not afraid to tell you. Raven is a young cat who loves butt scratches, crumpled up paper and tasty wet food. She is a vocal young lady, especially when it comes time for food. Raven came to SAYv with five young kittens. She proved herself to be an excellent mama, and now she's ready for the quiet life. Her previous owner said she was good with other cats. She has been introduced to dogs and children in her foster home, and seemed tolerant, but wary. With slow introductions, we think she could settle in with any of those scenarios. Are you ready to add a feline companion to your life? If so, consider this beautiful girl. She is sure to win you over with her stunning looks and playful nature. Are you ready to make Raven part of your family?
