Available Kitties:
|
|
Goose- approx 9 years
Goose came to us with a group of other FIV+ kitties over two years ago. Don’t let his age fool you though, this guy still thinks he’s a kitten. Sometimes he gets the zoomies and can be seen running around the cafe! After he gets that energy out, he does love to settle down and snuggle up for some chin scratches. He’s not a huge fan of other kitties but doesn’t seem to mind them as long as them give him his space. He’s a handsome good boy who’s really sweet once you get to know him! He is toothless, and FIV positive, but that doesn’t mean he can’t live a full and happy life (you can read more about FIV here). Adoption Fee: $80 |
|
|
Foy - approx 4 years
Foy is a sweet and silly man who loves snuggles and pets once he gets to know you. Foy loves to play with toys and would love a human of his own to snuggle up to. He would do well with other cats, but needs a stable and comfortable home as he can be a little sensitive. His funny meow and mustache make this special guy an amazing kitty who deserves a loving home. He is FIV positive (you can read more about FIV here) but that doesn't affect his day to day life! He can be quite a snuggler and just needs a safe, stable environment in a home to call his own! Adoption Fee: $80 |
|
|
Greyson - approx 7 years
Grayson is a super sweet and chill older guy! He loves being pet and will rub up against you for them when he's happy! When he gets really, really happy he starts to drool. He is front declawed. Grayson was diagnosed with stomatitis when we got him. He had all of his teeth extracted to help with the pain and inflammation. Sadly, sometimes even removing the teeth does not make the inflammation completely go away, and this was the case for him. We are working with our veterinarians to find the best management for this. Most likely Grayson will require some kind of treatment for this for the rest of his life. Adoption Fee: $80 |
|

Nani - approx 3 years
Nani is a sweet, silly girl. She raised her 5 babies in foster and is now looking for a home of her own! She is very affectionate and likes pets and the occasional snuggle.

Gretchen - approx 15 years (with foster)
Gretchen is a beautiful senior lady, fun and with a sassy side! She prefers things to be on her terms and you will then be rewarded with her affection. Some call this “Tortie-tude”! But, after 15 yrs she just knows what she likes and what she wants. Nothing wrong with that! She will blossom in an environment that is quiet & stress free, has adults or respectful older children, and allows for window watching & lounging. A gentle approach and allowing her to bond on her own timing is key. She will thrive in a home setting with a patient and loving human as an only kitty. Will this human be you?! She eats special sensitive tummy food and takes a daily supplement - so she's living with a foster but if you're interested in meeting this sweet lady - contact us MEOW!

Daddy & Figaro - approx 1 year (with foster)
It was by complete coincidence that Daddy Blackberry (short hair, counterpart to Mama Orange) and Figaro (med hair) ended up in the same foster home at the same time - but these guys became BEST buds! Daddy was terrified when he first came to us, he didn't move much, and he didn't really like getting pet... but when Figaro came along, Daddy decided he wanted to be friends and his confidence grew 10 fold! Now they are inseparable and Daddy loves to cuddle and get pets too! Figaro has been with us since he was a baby and has had some medical issues. He is on some medications but is doing great. On occasion, he gets himself worked up and it makes him have trouble breathing - but he knows how to calm himself down! He just needs to take a break and be calm.

Folklore Babies - approx 1 year
The Folklore Babies— James Bean (floofy black, M), Betty (black, F) and August (black/white, F) —came to us when the family who had been feeding their mama caught James thinking their mama had been hit by a car. We offered to help trap his sisters, and the first cat we trapped was their mama! The whole family is very shy and has been with their foster mama for months adjusting to life inside with humans. Jamesy is the most social of the kittens—he wants to be brave so bad, and picks up on the behaviors of the cats around him. He is the BIGGEST mama’s boy ever (seriously), and he loves to chew on a good cardboard box! August is a bit more shy but LOVES a good churu and likes to talk with her foster mama when she’s in a good mood. Betty is the spiciest bean, but she loves her family and has gotten more brave as she got more comfortable. They would love to find a calm, patient forever home with other kitty friends! Adoption Fee: $100 each |
|
|
Dorothea - approx 5 years
Mama Dorothea is the mama of the Folklore babies. She came to us when the family who had been taking care of her as an outdoor feral cat for years reached out to us for help with her kittens and we caught her first! Turns out, she’s only semi-feral and just didn’t like their dogs. They hadn’t been able to catch her for long enough to get her spayed, so she kept having litters of kittens that they were finding homes for—now she’s done having babies and is learning to relax around humans! She is the most tolerant mama ever to her babies, letting them snuggle all over her even now that they’re as big as she is. Her one ear is permanently crinkled—likely due to an old hematoma—but with proper care it doesn’t bother her at all. She likes crunchy treats and will eat them straight out of your hand when she trusts you. She would like a quiet home alone or with one of her babies where she can keep learning to trust people. Adoption Fee: $80 |

Toulouse - approx 1 year
Berlioz (ADOPTED) and Toulouse are (presumably) brothers who were born and lived by someone who adopted kitties from us.

Paris - approx 2 years
Paris is the mama cat of London, who both came to us this year when mama had a big wound on her arm and was taking care of her one baby all alone.

They are all friendly with other cats and snuggly with humans. Moony (grey tabby siamese, F) can be a little shy at first, but once she picks her human buddy, she will follow them and check on them all day. She loves to snuggle and help out around the house by being right there for pets and emotional support. She's comfortable with other cats and knows how to say no when she's playing with her peers. She would do well in any home. Padfoot (grey tabby, M), Aka Boneless, is a sweet squishy boy. He likes to do his own thing most of the time, but enjoys a good wrestle when other kittens come find him.

Adoption Fee: $150 each/ 2 for $250 |

Catalina - approx 2 years
Catalina and Blackberry (living with his BFF Figaro, in foster) came to us when they were living together, unaltered, and had babies.

They grew up big and strong and will be ready for their own homes soon. Mama Catalina is shy, but sweet. She was buddies with Hoffman in her foster home, who is also up for adoption at the cafe now.

Storm - approx 3 years
Storm is a super sweet floof! He's super soft, he loves attention, and he will even talk to you! He is FIV positive (you can read more about FIV here) but that doesn't affect his day to day life!

Suzie - approx 4 years
Don't let her RBF fool you... Suzie is a sweet girl! She was rescued as a stray covered in fleas and missing lots of hair. She's been through a lot, but her hair has grown back in super thick!

|
|
Daddy Longlegs - approx 1 year
Daddy Long Legs came to us June '20 as a kitten with his insect siblings (Firefly, Caterpillar, Dragonfly and Bumblebee - all adopted). November '20 he was diagnosed with FIP which used to have no cure, but there has been an experimental treatment available for about 5-6 years that he was able to receive to save his life! He's a snuggler but on his terms.... He's a great cuddle buddy, he does great with dogs and other cats. He's very playful. He likes to ride on your shoulders and keep your neck warm. Daddy is considered cured but due to this treatment being so new we do not have any long term information on if it will affect him. Adoption Fee: $100 |

Adrius - approx 3 years (with foster)
This sweet handsome boy is Adrius. He needs a very special home. He's funny, and sweet, and a great snuggler (he always wants to be in your lap!!), but unfortunately, he has a serious bite history. Adrius came to us from another shelter because he was at risk of euthanasia due to his FIV+ status. During his exam, another kitty vocalized, causing him to get stressed and to bite. Although he lived in a foster home with other cats, there were two instances with two separate kitties in which Adrius was so stressed and overstimulated he bit again. Lots of kitties will lash out and scratch or bite when stressed, it's natural, but it was like he was a completely different cat in that moment. He doesn't deserve to live outside and he certainly doesn't deserve to be euthanized if we can find him any other option. We started him on kitty Prozac about a month ago and he has been a perfect model citizen. He loves to cuddle, and play, and he is a sweet cute boy who just needs the right environment and the right person to be successful and have a happy healthy life! That environment has NO other cats, probably no kids, and a person who FULLY understands his history, his behavior, and how to help him be a good boy. It might be a long shot, but we have to try. Cats don't behave how they behave for no reason. Adrius just needed some help and needs to find the right home where he can thrive! If you think you might be interested in meeting this cuddly little silly boy - email kzoocatcafe@gmail.com meow! Adoption Fee: $50 We are now accepting applications to meet Adrius! |

|
Jayden and Barley - approx 3 years
Jayden (black and white) and Barley (black) were adopted from the cafe a couple years ago and have found their way back to us through no fault of their own. They have been through a lot. Barley came to us after he needed surgery on his eyes (entropion - completely healed now!) and Jayden came to us after his original owner passed away. Jayden is outgoing, loves people, and gets along great with his 'bro', Barley. Barley is more laid back but is super sweet and chill. These boys don't necessarily need to be adopted again together, but we do know they get along great and would love to find a new forever home, for real this time. Adoption Fee: $80 each |
|
|
George - approx 9 months - ADOPTION PENDING
George (black and white tuxedo) has had a difficult start to his life and was very sick as a small kitten. Luckily he was able to overcome that and started thriving only to get an eye infection, which has left him partially blind in one eye none of this stops him though. In fact, he has grown so much that he has earned the nickname Orca because of his size and tuxedo coloring. He's just a big lover boy. George is always available for snuggles and ready to purr in a moment's notice. It's not a trap - he really does love belly rubs. His favorite toys are balls and he's been known to carry the same crinkle ball around the house for hours. But hide your wool dryer balls, because he will shred them to bits and even steals them out of the laundry basket. Consider adapting his littermate Brian so the brothers can stay together. George is comfortable with humans of all ages, other cats, and dogs. Adoption Fee: $150 each/ 2 for $250 |
|
|
The Goat Girls - approx 7 months
Chèvre came to us as a tiny bottle baby singleton when her mama accidentally dropped her in a storm drain while repositioning her littermates! By the time rescuers got her out, mama and her other babies were long gone. Chèvre thrived with her fosters and was very snuggly, if occasionally nippy since she had no kitty friends to teach her boundaries. Around the time she was able to be vetted and placed with other kittens her age, we were contacted about a “newborn” kitten that had been dropped off in a field and needed care. When she was dropped off, the little floof wasn’t a newborn but she was the perfect age to be Chèvre’s new buddy! Since Chèvre got her name from the goat’s milk formula she got as a baby, Pashmina also got a goat-themed name. Mina cried constantly until she was able to be vetted and put together with Chèvre, and they became fast friends! Chèvre stopped biting faces, and Pashmina learned how to live life inside. These goat girls would love to find a forever home together or with other kitty friends! Adoption Fee: $150 each/ 2 for $250 |
|
|
The Supers! - approx 8 months
The Supernaturals came to us as small, scared kittens. With help from their foster mamas and some of their foster friends, they’re now outgoing and love human attention! Jensen (black, F) was the most social of the supers. She’s a sweet little meowdel who loves to lay in a good sunspot. Misha (tuxedo, M) took a little while to come around but is now the most dramatic if he doesn’t immediately get attention. He’s a talker and likes to chew on his foster mama’s toes while she tries to pet him. Jared (black, M) was the most shy of the supers when we got them and would hide when his foster mama came in the room. Now he’s the first one to run out of the foster room and beg for pets! He’s a big gentle giant, and even tries to snuggle with his foster’s resident cat when he breaks out of his room. They would love to find a forever home with another kitty friend to play with and plenty of human attention. Adoption Fee: $150 each/ 2 for $250 |

|
Treasure Mama - approx 2 years (with foster)
Treasure mama was found in the window well of a home with her babies! We were contacted and noticed she had a severely swollen eye and definitely needed medical attention. However, before we could get her and her babies to safety, she took one and hid them under a HUGE deck at the neighbor's house... it took a whole entire day to get them out, but we reunited the family and Treasure mama was an amazing mama to her sweet babies. She is sweet as honey & all she needs to be happy is patience, soft ping pong balls, and encouragement. Her demanding little chirps for food will win any heart, and she truly enjoys the company of a kitty friend once she feels safe in her environment. Treasure doesn’t ever want to be alone, she is still learning to trust people but she wants to be near her person or kitty friend at all times. She would make a wonderful addition to any home. Adoption Fee: $150 each/ 2 for $250 We are now accepting applications to meet Treasure Mama! |

Cheese Babies! - approx 9 months (with foster)
Brie (black, F) and Asiago (grey/blue, M) are not true brother and sister but they have spent the majority of their rescue lives together. They do well together but don't necessarily require to be adopted together. They match energy well and their different personalities are a good combo to have. Brie is a velcro cat. If she could live touching you the majority of her life she would be happy. She's got a great trill when she is spending time with you. She also would prefer you never tell her you are too busy to snuggle. Asiago is more of a loner. He comes to you for brief pets and then is off doing his own thing. You will find them playing chase and grooming each other around the house. They both get along with small dogs and any other cats they have met in foster. They will both be receiving dentals due to some gum inflammation. Adoption Fee: $150 each/ 2 for $250 We are now accepting applications to meet the Cheese babies! |
