Story

James is a handsome DSH orange tabby male born approximately 3/13/2021. James was originally rescued by NBCR along with his mother and his 6 other siblings. He and his brother, Jacob, were then adopted into a loving home. Sadly, through no fault of their own, they were returned to us about a year later. They have since been in a long-term foster home where they are much loved and cared for. They would still love to have a truly forever home to call their own. James and Jacob are quite bonded. James is timid and super shy except with humans he feels comfortable with. He sleeps with his foster, but still can be startled if she moves too fast. He would do best adopted with his brother as they seem to find comfort having each other's presence. They both like people and attention, but they do still get scared easily. James isn't quite as brave as Jacob, so he isn't quite as comfortable out and about through the whole house. If it gets too much, he will go upstairs until things calm down. Really, James' needs are simple: a calm person and place to go to when scared, someone to sleep with at night, and canned food every day. That's his happy thing! They would probably do okay with kids who are calm and give them time to adjust. James is microchipped and currently in a foster home. His adoption fee is $105. November 4, 2024, 1:06 pm

Story

Samwise is large and in charge! This sweet boy was rescued by NBCR in February and quickly adopted. Sadly, he has recently been returned to us. Updated bio coming soon! Samwise, Sam for short, is a beautiful DSH red/orange tabby male born approximately 1/26/2022. He is a big boy at 12.6 pounds and likely to get a bit larger. Sam showed up in a Garland neighborhood out of nowhere and the consensus was that he was a dumped or abandoned pet. Several neighbors started feeding him. On then Saturday afternoon in January when the DFW arctic blast arrived, Sam showed up at the backdoor of one of the neighbors and begged to come in. She took him in and contacted New Beginnings, agreeing to foster him until he could be adopted. Sam turned out to be a very social and loving cat. He has a loud purr and likes to make biscuits on people. He is good with all people and children. It is unknown how he would be with other cats or dogs. He just wants all the pets, comfy beds, and all the foods. He loves belly rubs and head scritches. He has great litter box habits and uses scratching posts. Sam got a clean bill of health at the vet. He did well in the carrier and seemed to enjoy the car ride. He is a lap kitty and snuggler. Like his namesake, Samwise, he is a good and faithful companion, salt of the earth - a Texas good ol' boy! Sam is microchipped and currently in a foster home. His adoption fee is $105. January 9, 2025, 11:12 am

Story

Tiger is a handsome DSH orange and white tabby senior gentleman born approximately 5/25/2013. "I found my home when I was just a baby by going under the fence. After a couple of months, I could no longer fit under the fence and had to jump over the fence. A nice man greeted me every day with food and pets, and eventually, I was invited to live inside with him. Then came along another kitty named Lady. We got along well and played together for a long time. Now, I am all grown up and mature, but sadly, the nice man who rescued us recently passed away and now we must start over. If Lady could come with me to a new family, it would make the transition to starting over a little bit easier. I am very laid back and sweet. I love canned food and treats. I enjoy being petted, sleeping in a box, and recently being brushed to keep my fur looking great. Sometimes I would sneak outside when the door was open long enough, but it didn’t take long for me to want to run back to be let in. So, for a while, I would need to be watched so that I don’t want to do that and get lost." Although Tiger has previously lived in a multi-cat household, we aren't sure how he would do with other cats in a new home situation. We do know he currently seems fearful of dogs. Tiger is microchipped and currently in a foster home. His adoption fee is $105.November 4, 2024, 1:06 pm

Story

*** Adoption Special - $50 OFF adoption fee sponsored by Good Charlie *** Hello! I'm Holly Noelle, a lovely 10-year-old lady with a calm and gentle spirit. While I may have a few more years under my paws, my heart is as young as ever. I used to be quite the playful kitten, and though I've settled into a more serene phase, I still find joy in the simple pleasures of life. I absolutely adore being petted—there's nothing quite like a soft hand running through my fur. I especially enjoy finding the perfect windowsill spot to soak up the sun and watch the birds as they flit by; their little antics truly bring a smile to my face! Recently, I made my way to a foster home after my first family chose not to take me back. It's been quite an adventure, and now I'm ready to find my forever family. I'm in great health and feel as vibrant and active as ever thanks to some recent check-ups. I might take a little time to warm up, especially around other cats, as I tend to be a bit shy. I confess I hissed at a couple of my foster siblings and wasn't too thrilled about posing for pictures. However, once someone helps me onto their lap, I can relax and truly enjoy the moment—I've even started to doze off! If you're looking for a sweet companion to share quiet moments with—whether it's lounging in a sunny spot or enjoying a gentle stroke while we relax together—I'm your girl. I can't wait to meet you! Thanks to Good Charlie sponsoring Holly Noelle, you can adopt her for only $50! For more information about me, please email info@frastx.orgDecember 11, 2024, 2:15 pm

House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Hi there! I’m Trixie, a charming brown tabby and white female kitten searching for my forever home. I have a bit of an independent streak, which means I love to explore and play on my own terms. You might see me lounging close by or curled up in a cozy spot, but I’ll come to you when I’m ready for some gentle pets. While I enjoy a nice scratch behind the ears, I’m not really a fan of being held—I prefer to enjoy my freedom! Playing with my toys is my favorite pastime, and I can keep myself entertained for hours as you watch me toss and bat them around. Catnip? That's my jam! It really brings out my playful side, and you might catch me rolling around with the toys. I’m very happy being an indoor-only cat, and I thrive in a safe environment where I can play and explore without worries. If you're looking for a sweet companion who enjoys quality time on my own terms, I just might be the perfect match for you!

House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

COURTESY POST - This cat is not with FRAs. Please contact Victoria at 469-855-5722. Birdie is a young and spirited kitty with a lot of love to give. He’s a little over one year old, neutered, up-to-date on his rabies, FVRCP, and leukemia vaccines, and has tested negative for FIV and FeLV. While he’s scared of dogs, he enjoys playing with calm, docile cats. Birdie wandered frightened and hungry onto his foster mom's patio, and after a few nights of feeding him and trying to gain his trust, he eventually let her pick him up and bring him inside. He didn’t learn bite inhibition as a kitten, so when he’s playful or being handled, he may nip or use his teeth. Because of this, he’s best suited to a home with an experienced cat owner who understands and can manage these behaviors. He needs a patient adopter familiar with working with feisty or temperamental kitties. A meet-and-greet is highly recommended to ensure he’s the right fit for you. Despite his quirks, Birdie is a sweet and loving cat who deserves a forever home where he can thrive. If you’re interested in giving this unique kitty a chance, please contact Victoria at 469-855-5722January 5, 2025, 10:36 am
