Story
One of a seven litter, 5 mo Sebastian loves to play with his siblings but is also quiet and reserved. He seems fine with kids, my 1 year old niece loves to help feed them! Sebastian is black with very faint stripes (hard to see unless in direct sunlight). Because his mom was rescued and dad is unknown, I am not 100% sure on his breed. His mom was a very young stray we found, not knowing she was pregnant, and she ended up having seven kittens! I would love to keep them all, but financially I cannot keep 8 cats. I love them dearly and want to see Sebastian go to a good home where he’ll be treasured for the gentle guy he is! *The $5 fee is to cover listing, no other fee needed! However if you would like to donate more, I am keeping the stray and a couple kittens :) this is OPTIONAL and no money is required at all!! Only pickup needed :)

Story
A Home For Tux. POV: TUX Hi, I'm Tux. That's the oh so "original" name my current foster family gave me. How creative, right? Here's the deal: I need a home. A forever home. SOOO tired of this placement and just want to be RID of these people. Yes, they feed me. Yes, they play with me. And yes, they are kind and loving and blah blah blah... But I want a family of my own. I am so sweet and love to be doted on, but here's the rub: ALL of my fellow cat housemates annoy me. When I was a new kitten, I was scared to death of everything and hissed at whomever came near me. I isolated a lot and didn't really want anyone bugging me. These other furballs I share a house with couldn't understand that and would not leave me be! Alwyas trying to groom me, and clean me and...forgive the over share...SMELL places they shouldn't! So, I may have not been so nice and approachable as I could have been but they would not let up! I just needed my space!! Now? When I want to socialze? All they want to do is eat my food and sit in my tree. No Ma'am! That is off limits! So, Foster mom keeps me separated in my own room. It's a nice room, with a couch under big window I can sit on and watch the birds and squireels, and there is always soft music playing with plenty of treats, food and water...but it's a room. I'm lonely. I want out. I love people, I just take some time to adjust to change. I am sure I would love other cats eventually, I just don't like my housemates (although truth be told I'd probably prefer being on only for a bit, as long as I got a ton of attention. ) I do love to play! Lasers and squeek mice and I LOVE to loaf while petted. (I also happen to have the softest fur EVER!! Just saying...) There has to be someone who will give me a chance? Someone with patience and an experienced adopter? If it doesn't work out, I can always come back here. If anyone wants to meet me please PM my Foster Mom. She will cry when I leave but she knows it would be for the best! 💜 (I do have an adoption fee but that is just to keep some Coconut from trying to get me! I have all my shots, and fixed and microchipped too. )

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Mochi is a small, full grown girl. She has a sweet and quirky personality and the tiniest little meow.

They have bonded at the foster’s house and are so sweet together. They love to play together and hang out around each other. His name is Red and about 11 months old.  He’s a very loveable orange guy, that is very vocal and loves belly rubs. If you’d like to adopt this tiny little girl and her boyfriend Red, please fill out an application and contact her foster Angela.    Angela 407-446-4355 cell (text first if possible)    Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.November 13, 2024, 2:22 pm

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.McCoy got his name from being rescued from the parking garage at the Orlando Airport (MCO stands for McCoy). A stranger posted that she saw him when she was leaving town and said he needed help. His foster Angela ran and got him to safety. Since then, he’s been the most loving, loyal and affectionate baby. He loves to play, cuddle and be around his people. He will tell you if you’re not paying enough attention to to him. He’s very smart and also tender hearted so he needs a very attentive,  loving and loyal family that will take good care of him his whole life, no matter what.    If you are this person/family then please fill out an application and then reach out directly to his foster mom Angela (407)446-4355.     Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.January 27, 2025, 1:33 pm

Story
Scarlett is a 4-year-old American Shorthair. She was a stray, found on the roof of my girlfriend's mom's place of employment, yet has lived with us for 4 years with our older cat we previously already had prior to her. She was a kitten and was able to adapt to her early on. While she got along well with this other cat, she has not displayed the same adaptability with other cats. We have since adopted a new kitten from a rescue during an adoption event and Scarlett has not adapted well. Scarlett is having trouble adjusting to a new kitten in the house and has been displaying some territorial behaviors. It has been quite some time and she has not adjusted despite our other older cat already adjusting to this new kitten. Apart from this, Scarlett is a low-maintenance, cuddly cat who loves to jump on you and rub herself against you for affection. She would thrive in a loving home where she can be the center of attention without the stress of adapting to a new feline friend.

Merlin is a very energetic 2 1/2 year old cat. We have had some issues since he was forced to stay inside since we moved to Florida. He would prefer an indoor/outdoor situation or even a barn to roam. He loves people, preferring to stay near owners when he isn’t exploring outdoors,.

Hi my name is Safari and i’m a loving, energetic kitty. I am now 10 months, I love playing with my toys and eating treats. Sometimes i like to run around and i hope you can keep up. Safari is an orange tabby, she was fostered due to capacity and resources. She was kept for a little because she needed more tender loving care to help her socialize with different aged humans. She’s now ready for her furever home.
