Domestic Shorthair kittens & cats in Sauk Rapids, Minnesota

MARBLE / 11 YEARS / DOMESTIC SHORT HAIR CAT Marble came to Grey Face due to her owner passing away. She loves her naps, laying on the floor and getting the occasional catnip treat. Marble was extremely overweight when she first came to Grey Face, so she's  looking for someone that can continue to pay attention to her diet and feed her on a regular schedule, as well as encourage her to stay active. Marble also likes to be brushed and snuggle by your side. She would love multiple scratching posts and maybe some indoor grass, as she did go outside occasionally with her prior owner and loved the grass.  Dogs: No - Marble is very afraid of dogs. Cats: Yes Kids: Yes, older children Health Concerns: None If you're interested in adopting Marble, please fill out a foster application here:  http://www.greyfacerescue.org/availablecats August 19, 2024, 9:59 am

He likes to meet new people and be social. He can be quite vocal, like when he is excited, or hungry, or when you touch his belly too much. He loves to communicate, sometimes even with just his eyes! I catch him staring at me almost every time I look at him. He loves to look out a good window, though his eyesight is not the best, or find a cozy spot to take a snooze.   The quickest way to his heart is brushes, though!  He can just lay and be brushed all day! He also LOVES cat nip! *Poika needs insulin shots two times a day and prescription food.* Because of his illness, he can become moody and anxious/irritable. His ideal home would be quiet, and no small children. He does get along well with most cats but can get overstimulated if there are cats fighting around him; so other mellow cats or other pets who are not high energy are just fine! A little history: Poika was surrendered to a shelter due to his then undiagnosed health issues. Once in the shelter, it was discovered that he is diabetic. We do not know how long that went untreated, but once treated, he has improved in great strides! Initially he could not walk or stand very well, his limbs were skinny and his belly was big. After only a few weeks, he started walking and jumping again! His body is much more proportionate, his eyes are clearer, and he seems so happy! We are uncovering his true personality through managing his health and well being, and it is a true gift! Poika is undergoing treatment for Diabetes.  Poika is from a local impound.

I'm searching for someone truly special. Are you a caretaker at heart? Do you have a soft spot for the underdog, or in this case, under-kitty? Well, please read on. My name is Grizzly. I was adopted as a tiny kitten and lived happily with my family until that unfortunate divorce. Since then, I've been bounced around from place to place, which has been hard and stressful for me. At some point, I put on some extra pounds, but now I'm on a weight loss plan and have already shed some weight. Yay! I'll need someone who can support me on my weight loss journey. Being overweight, I have some mobility limitations—I struggle with jumping onto furniture and prefer a lower-sided litterbox. Another issue is that I'm incontinent with my bowel movements. It's not behavioral; rather, I sometimes can't make it in time or am unaware it's happening, or perhaps a combination of both. If you can see past my challenges, you'll find I have the best personality. I'm shy at first, but then I blossom into a sweet, tubby gentleman. I adore tummy rubs, chin scratches, and being brushed. I'm also quite tolerant of having all my many nails trimmed. Do you have room in your heart for a calm, couch-napping, sweet chubby kitty? Grizzly is from an owner surrender.

While she can sometimes be a bit unsure, she makes progress every day and will tolerate some affection. Her most accepted activity is to be picked up and carried around the house. Once she is set down, however, she would prefer to keep her personal space. Sometimes she will allow for some pets as long as you don't touch her tummy or near her tail.   Girlie thrives in calm environments and enjoys relaxing on her cat tower. She may not seek out attention, but she's fine sitting on the couch or bed next to humans. Contrary to her mere tolerance for humans, she LOVES other cats! She can frequently be seen rubbing affectionately on the household kitties of her foster home.   If you have any questions about Girlie, her foster encourages you to meet her by sending in an application! Girlie is from a local surrender. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application.

He likes sniffing our fingers, and if his brother Chong is next to him, he likes to be petted a little bit. He’s always close to his brother Chong, and always follows where Chong leads. These boys would do best by being adopted together.  Check him out here.    At night, Cheech sleeps at the foot of the bed, and occasionally under the covers. He’s solidly litter box trained.
