Available Kitties:

|
Hamilton Babies - approx 4 years
Eliza (black/white), Peggy (grey/white), and Lawrence (orange/white) came to us as friends from another rescue. They were part of a group of strays that had all been rescued from the same area. Their siblings Aaron Purr and Lafayette have already been adopted. Lawrence (ASK ABOUT MEETING ME) is the sweetest boy. He loves to be around other kitties, especially his sisters Eliza and Peggy. After our move to our new location, Lawrence developed a “rodent ulcer”—often caused by environmental allergies... since being on a limited ingredient diet, his lip has been MUCH better! While he was in his foster home, his foster human said he loved to chirp and talk with you. He is a playful and social kitty who really loves to be with other people and kitties. He’s back at the cafe now, just in our med room so he can stay on his special diet. Lawrence deserves his very own forever home, ask to meet him today! Eliza and Peggy are still very shy but they are tightly bonded. They can basically always be found together at the cafe—they eat together, sleep together, play together. Although they aren’t too keen on pets yet, they love to play. The way to their hearts is with string toys and treats. These girls need a home were they can learn to trust and let their personalities truly blossom. Adoption Fee: $80 |

Gramps - approx 18 years
Grandpa T (aka Pa T or Gramps) is a sweet senior fellow who came to us from another rescue after he was relinquished because his family was moving... this guy needs a second chance at a real forever home! He likes head scritches and will give you kisses and head butts when he's happy! On occasion, he likes using your shoulders as his own personal cat tree. He can often be found on the top of the cat perch by the desk in the cafe. He has claimed it as his own and is not afraid to tell the other kitties to move out of his spot! He can get overstimulated with too much activity or attention, but he'll tell you when he's had enough. Gramps tolerates other cats at the cafe as long as they give him space, but he would like love to have a home all to himself. He would do best in a quiet home without small children. He is 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 |

|
Stinkin - 2 years
Inspired by an educational bulletin board, Dagnabit, Doggoneit, Jeepers, Bleep, and Fiddlesticks have all been adopted but Stinkin (brown tabby) is at the cafe waiting for a forever home! Stinkin has always been the shyest of the bunch and definitely a cat’s cat. He has made progress at the cafe and will sometimes accept pets from people who go slow with him. He does love to play and is often found snuggled up on a cat tree or with a buddy. Apart from his kitty friends, his favorite thing is watching cat TV! Stinkin needs a home with a kitty friend(s) and humans that are patient with him and let him get comfortable at his own pace so his personality can bloom. Come meet these guys and see if your home could be their forever home. Adoption Fee: $80 |
|
|
Meatball - approx 5 years
Introducing the one and only, Meatball! He received his name for being sassy after being told no, and much to everyones delight the name stuck! While Meatball is FIV positive (you can read more about FIV here) that doesn't stop him from living life to its full potential, and enjoying being spoiled. He would do best either as a solo cat or with cats that are very laid back, he likes to lead and doesn't appreciate others telling him otherwise! Meatball may be shy at first, but once he's comfortable he's a very social and chatty cat, he enjoys exploring and climbing, as well as a cozy lap. He's an excellent biscuit maker and loves to be brushed. Adoption Fee: $80 |
|
|
Glenda - approx 11 years
Glenda was found curled up in an apartment complex lot after her owner moved out. She had a large healing wound on her hip and her coat was in bad shape. She battled a bladder infection when we first got her but is doing better now! She does have some early elevated kidney values that will need to be watched, but she's a sweet girl who deserves a calm home. She can be a bit spicy when you try to make her do something she rather not! She often is curled up on her spot she has claimed on the shelves by the TV, but sometimes when it’s quiet she’ll come out and look for a lap to sit on. Glenda needs a quiet home, preferably where she is the only kitty. Adoption Fee: $80 |
|
|
Florence - approx 10 months (with foster)
Florence (Gray/White) though she is small she has a big personality. She delights in scaling high places like shoulders, cat trees, and refrigerators. Her fondness for human food is undeniable, often begging for it persistently. She finds comfort in sleeping with people in bed at night. Florence is currently in her foster home going through the observation phase of her treatment for FIP! Adoption Fee: $150 each/ 2 for $250 |
|
|
Rosie - approx 2 years
Rosie came to us after having some issues in her home that her owners weren't willing to deal with - although she's shown no issues with us at the cafe - except wanting attention and pets and cuddles all the time!! She's a big dilute tortie girl, who will roll over and show you her belly for pets, and won't take no for an answer! She is officially on the lookout for a new forever human! Adoption Fee: $80 |
|
|
Curtsy - approx 5 years
Curtsy (black and white, polydactyl (she has extra toes!)) came from another county shelter. She was sick and was having a hard time getting better with all the other kitties. In her foster home, she improved right away! But she will still need a dental cleaning which will hopefully make her feel even better! She takes a minute to make kitty friends, but she's been doing well so far at the cafe, and LOVES the kitty TV! Adoption Fee: $80 |
|
|
Lili - approx 1 year (with foster)
Lili has come SO FAR in her time with rescue - she was always such a shy gal, but now she's confident and even a little sassy sometimes! She just knows what she likes! She has chronic kitty herpes issues, which results in her eyes being a bit goobery sometimes – but nothing to worry too much about! She likes to be right by you, but only likes a few head pats and then she's back to being an independent lady! Adoption Fee: $100 |
|
|
Matzo - approx 3 years
Matzo ball is a super sweet stray boy who came to us after testing FIV positive (you can read more about FIV here), but that doesn’t mean he is any less deserving of finding a great family! He's a bit shy at first, but he's a really low-key guy who is still figuring out his personality and what this cat cafe place is all about! Adoption Fee: $80 |
|
|
Barnaby - approx 8 years
Barnaby came to us from another rescue for a change of scenery - he is FIV positive (you can read more about FIV here), but that doesn’t mean he is any less deserving of finding a great family! He's a pretty shy, but of course it takes a while to get used to a new place. He sometimes has issues with one of his legs, and he will soon be toothless! The rest of his teeth are not in good condition and need to be removed. He will feel SO much better and can't wait to find a forever home! Adoption Fee: $80 |
|
|
Ersa (and Emile - with foster!) - approx 2 years
Ersa (tabby F) came to us with several other cats from a hoarding situation. She was very friendly but still needed her vaccines and to be spayed. She is now fully vetted and ready to find her forever home! Ersa loves hands—she wants to get pet all the time, and she is so excited for pets that she’ll grab your hands to pull them to her. Sometimes, she’ll even nibble on them in her excitement! She wants to be near her people, though she’s not much of a lap cat because she won’t sit still for very long. Ersa’s very used to other cats but is very hot and cold when it comes to tolerating them—she’ll headbutt and snuggle her foster buddies one moment and swat them for looking at her the next. She’s also a little skittish with new people and loud noises. She’ll do well in a quiet home. Emile (long hair, tabby, with foster) came to us from the same place, but is definitely more shy. He was far less socialized than some of the other kitties we got out of this situation. When in a condo or enclosure he gets airplane ears and is unsure of the situation. He has been in a few fosters who could focus on his socialization. Sure enough, 24 hours—and one churu treat—later, he had visibly relaxed and even allowed some very tentative chin scritches! Turns out this boy will do just about anything for more churu. He still has some domestic cat skills left to master and a ways to go on his socialization journey, but he has graduated to allowing pets all around his head without treats (if you go slow) and mainly yowling when his foster buddies are getting treats instead of him. Emile will need a quiet home with someone who understands his ways of communication and at least one brave kitty friend to remind him everything’s okay. At this time he is on a prescription diet for some tummy issues. We are hoping to wean him off when his digestive tract is in better shape but he may require a special food for life. Adoption Fee: $80 We are now accepting applications to meet Emile! |

Bubz - approx 3 years
Bubz was a friendly stray who was being fed by a nice citizen, when they noticed that he had a wound on his side. He's since healed up and is getting ready to find a forever home! He is a very relaxed guy, LOVES belly rubs, and his wet food snacks. He is FIV positive (you can read more about FIV here), but that doesn’t mean he is any less deserving of finding a great family! He would love a calm forever home where he can lounge in the sun all day, and then get belly rubs from his favorite humans all night! Adoption Fee: $80 |
|
|
James & Silas - approx 6 & 11 years
James (B/W) and Silas (orange, no tail) were friendly barn boys who are now looking for a safe loving indoor home! They get along great together, but would be ok in a home on their own too. They're a little timid at first, but they both love snuggling and love pets! James, as long as his former owners knew, has had a cyst on the side of his neck, but he recently had it removed! And Silas needed a dental cleaning, which he did great for! They are both super sweet, LOVE pets, and are getting used to Cafe life and would love to find their forever humans soon! Adoption Fee: $80 each |
|
|
Meg - approx 2 years (ask about meeting me!)
Meg is a sweet shy lady. She is an easy-going girl that doesn't let anyone's bad attitude get to her and doesn't have a harsh word for anyone. She adores head and butt scratches and won't turn down treats or canned food! She's going to likely be a little shy at the cafe for a bit, but once she comes out of her shell, she'll be a great cuddle buddy for anyone or any cat! Adoption Fee: $80 |
|
|
Salem & Catniss - approx 9 years
Salem (all black-male) and Catniss (black with small white patches under chin and on belly-female) came to us when their owner passed away. They are approximately 8 or 9 years old and front declawed. They are very much a bonded pair. We have been told they are good with dogs, but their foster does not have any to verify. Salem is a bit smaller and is the gold medal winner of cuddling. He loves being held and laying on shoulders. He loves being near his people and if not them, his sister Catniss. She likes to pretend she’s not a cuddler. However, laps just happen to be really comfortable (but she keeps a paw on the ground because then she's not laying on you). She also has a bit of a drooling problem. They both can be vocal when you first come home. They enjoy playing, LOVE being brushed and think naps are the best. These two would do best in a home together, where there is normally a human present so they can get all the love they deserve. Adoption Fee: $80 |
|
|
Secret - approx 1 year
Odette (ADOPTED) & Antoinette (ADOPTED) are playful sisters. They are friends with Secret so they became the 'Ette Girls! Secret (tortie) was found outside of an eviction house with her momma - she is the most shy, she will need lots of time and space to get used to the cat cafe life. Adoption Fee: $100/each |
|
|
Dos Equis - approx 1 year
Dos Equis was born in a Modelo box and is mama Modela's only surviving baby. He is laid back, but a bit skittish - still getting used to his new surroundings and new friends! He's a cat's cat, but likes pets when he gets to know you and feels comfortable! He would do well in a calm home, with friends - he's used to other kitties and small dogs. Adoption Fee: $100 |
|
|
Binky - approx 1 year
Introducing Pichi and Clara! Pichi (ADOPTED), Bernard (COMING SOON), Binky (tabby, rainbow collar) and Clara (ADOPTED) are two adorable sisters, born to momma, Heidi, who has since found her forever home. These girls had a bit of a rocky start due to tummy troubles that required a short-term special diet, but they're doing great now, thriving on a regular diet. Clara is a bit reserved, taking her time to warm up to new faces, but she is SO lovely when she feels comfortable! Binky is initially shy, but comes out of her shell when she feels comfortable as well. She loves to play with her sisters and get all the scratches from her humans. Adoption Fee: $100 |
|
|
Growler - approx 1 year (ask about meeting me!)
This sweet handsome boy is Growler... He is looking for a very special home!! He's funny, and sweet, and a great snuggler (he sometimes lets his foster human hold him like a baby!!), but unfortunately, he has a habit of getting overstimulated and because he doesn't know what to do, he plays a little too hard, and can bite a bit. We started him on kitty Prozac, and he has been calmer so far! He loves to cuddle, and play, and he is a sweet cute boy who just needs the right environment and the right person and/or friend kitty to be successful and have a happy healthy life. That environment probably has no kids, and a person who FULLY understands his behavior, and how to help him be a good boy. He would probably get along great with another kitty who could match his playful energy, but hold their own when he plays too hard. Cats don't behave how they behave for no reason. Growler just needed some help and needs to find the right home where he can thrive! Adoption Fee: $100 We are now accepting applications to meet Growler! |
|
|
Fang - approx 2 years (COMING SOON)
Fang came to us when the humans who had been feeding him noticed that he had an issue with his mouth—one of his 'fangs' was indeed showing and he would drool and had trouble eating, because his bottom jaw was broken clean in half! Luckily, he's healed up now and doing much better, and learning to trust his foster human! Fang is pretty shy and plays aloof like he doesn’t want any human attention, but he does love a churu and will very subtly get up, stretch, and move around to let his foster mama know he would like some when one of his foster buddies is getting treats instead. He has gotten to the point of accepting ear scritches while eating his churu, or scratching wand pets when his treat is gone. He still hisses if you move too fast or try to handle him too much, but he’s pretty laidback if you respect his boundaries. He’s missing most of his teeth—including his namesake fang—but eats kibble just fine. He will do well in a quiet home with someone interested in helping him open up, and does well with other cats. Adoption Fee: $80 We are now accepting applications to meet Fang! |

|
Mama Snowy - approx 1 year
Mama Snowy came to us very ready to have her kittens. A few days later, she gave birth to 5 healthy weather babies. She took great care of them and is ready to find her own caring home. She's not necessarily a lap cat, but loves to hang out and tell you all about her day. She loves attention and, once she feels safe with a person, she loves to be held and scritched, bonus points if there's a window to look out. Snowy enjoys all ages of humans, but is a little uncertain about other cats. She would probably do well with another calm cat with proper introductions. She hasn't been around dogs, but would most likely adjust to any type of creature who respects her space if she's given plenty of time. Adoption Fee: $100 |
|
|
Weather Babies - approx 5 months
The Weather babies arrived quickly after mama Snowy moved into her foster home and they haven't slowed down yet. This cat-egory 5 purricane is bursting with energy and athleticism. They love to "hunt" for toys, laundry, paper, or anything else they deem prey for the day. They are all more playful than snuggly, but they love attention and their own high speed version of cuddles. Stormy (Tabby/White, F) and Windie (Tabby, M) are the most laid back. Stormy purrs as soon as she's pet and loves to hang out near humans. Windie is a chill noodle who is more independent and can sleep through anything. Sunny (Tabby, F), Nimbus (Tabby/White, F), and Raine (Tabby, M) are more high energy and will need enriching activity options to occupy their curiosity so they don't create their own. Raine is the most vocal and will tell you how much he hates hearing "no". Sunny is the most mighty huntress and loves to show off her prey. Nimbus loves parkour. This group is great with other cats and kids, as long as the kids are big enough to avoid unwanted rough play. They would likely adjust well to dogs with time, but would not be shy about throwing paws at first. Adoption Fee: $150 each/ 2 for $250 |
|
|
Sprinkles & Honeybee - approx 4 months (ADOPTIONS PENDING!)
Sprinkles (Torti, F) was found on sprinkle road. She may be missing a few parts, her front leg and a back toe, but she doesn't let that slow her down too much. She manages the stairs and the hop up to bed height and can play with the wildest of cats. Her beginnings have made her a little more cautious with new people, places, and activities, and she's not afraid to yell about it. Once she adjusts or things slow down enough for her liking, she is a huge snuggle bug and purrs louder than her previous hisses. In her foster home, she enjoyed calm children and other cats after a warm up period. She is still adjusting to the tripawd life, and would appreciate a home that bases accommodations on her comfort, not just her ability. Honeybee (Tabby, M, stubby tail) is a shy guy who's still realizing just how much he loves scritches. He isn't keen on people walking toward him, but absolutely loves pets when he get's close enough to receive them. He is much more likely to approach when he has a friend who is comfortable with people, as his confidence really grows around other cats. He is a playful boy who's bunny hops are adorable to watch while waiting for him to warm up to you. He will need a patient home with at least one other cat to show you his full purrsonality. Adoption Fee: $150 each/ 2 for $250 |

|
Solomon, Jennings & Cecelia - approx 1, 4 & 3 years
Solomon (DLH orange/white), Jennings (DSH orange/white) and Cecilia (DSH orange/white) came from a hoarder, arriving with a host of challenges. ALL of these cats had a condition called entropion, where their eyelids rolled inward, causing discomfort. As a result, they each required surgery, and you may still notice the suture line under their eyes. Despite their rough start, they all have shown incredible resilience. They are quite shy, but Solomon has warmed up (you might notice Solomon's quirky haircut-a necessity due to the severe matting he had when he first arrived) and we're sure Jennings and Cecelia will get more comfortable soon!. Adoption Fee: $100/$80/$80 |
|
|
Boots - approx 5 years
Boots (black and white male) was returned to us due to NO fault of his own. He's a great snuggler! He loves people and getting pets, will rub into your leg if he feels his pet quota has not been met! He is not the biggest fan of other kitties, but has lived with small dogs in the past. Give Boots his furever home! Adoption Fee: $80 |
|
|
Otto - approx 9 years
Otto (DSH, tabby) is a very shy guy, he prefers to stay low key... He was very dedicated to his human who passed away, and now is learning to trust again. He likes his space and will sleep in cat beds and look out the window. He is fine with other cats and small dogs. Adoption Fee: $80 |
|
|
Christine - approx 2 years
Christine (tabby, F) is a sweet and playful girl that loves to roll over for face scratches (no belly scratches, please!). She gets along with everyone and doesn't have any bad habits aside from being still playful like a kitten with toys! She'll likely take a little bit to warm up to the cafe, but she's an outgoing lady once she's comfortable! Adoption Fee: $80 |
|
|
Dominic - approx 2 years
Dominic (tabby, M, tripod!) came to us after he was missing from his previous indoor/outdoor home for a few days. When he returned he had been injured and his owner was unable to afford his vet bills... He ended up having two broken legs! His front leg healed and his rear was amputated once his front was stable enough to handle him being a tripod. He's been raised around other cats and is also very people friendly. Adoption Fee: $80 |
|
|
Eloise - approx 3 years
Eloise (b/w, F) was a neighborhood stray for 3 years until she picked one family's porch to have her babies under. They fed her while she took care of them and even scheduled her a spay appointment. When the babies got big enough that they were moving around, they noticed that one of them wobbled when he walked. They contacted the rescue because they knew he needed special help and we requested to take Mom too since she was nice and going to be staying outside otherwise. Eloise was an awesome mama and took good care of Squibbles until she came to the cafe. She is SUPER friendly and loves people! Come say hi to her today! Adoption Fee: $80 |
|
|
Hughie & Jimothy - approx 3 years
Hughie and Jimothy are two sweet boys who found their way to us from another rescue, and now they are ready to find their own forever homes! Hughie (G/W) is the extroverted one of the duo. He is always the first to greet people, and would be the perfect companion for someone looking for a cat who will be involved in every aspect of their day. Jimothy (black), on the other hand, is the gentler soul of the pair. He is affectionate once he gets to know you, and adores quiet moments of snuggling and petting. Jimothy thrives in a calm environment where he can feel safe and loved. While he may be a bit shy at first, once he warms up, you'll find that he is a devoted companion who enjoys curling up on your lap or lounging next to you as you read or watch TV. Adoption Fee: $80 each |
|
|
Paxton - approx 3 years (ask about meeting me!)
Paxton (G/W) came to us from another shelter, because when we saw her we knew she was a special girl! Paxton is extra special because she has lots and lots of extra toes, and walks on her "elbows"! As far as we can tell, we believe she was born like this, and she does not let it slow her down at all! She LOVES to talk to people, have conversations about her day, and snuggle up to her favorite humans for lots and lots of pets. She stands her ground with other cats, but seems to do just fine - unless they want to share her couch! Adoption Fee: $80 |
|
|
Costello - approx 2 years
Costello (B&W) arrived with a noticeable limp, an injury sustained while he was living outdoors. When he first joined us, he was very shy. He would often retreat under blankets and find solace in hiding spots. His initial timidity was a testament to the hardships he had endured. As he settled into his new environment, it became clear that Costello discovered a profound enjoyment in being petted, and it quickly became apparent that he thrives on the warmth and attention of his human companions. He is now ready to find a forever home where he can continue to blossom and share his newfound love for pets with a family who will appreciate his gentle and loving nature. Adoption Fee: $80 |
|
|
Princess Marmalade & Peach Cobbler - approx 4 months
Princess Marmalade (ginger) is a sweet and relaxed lady. She really is a princess. She will tolerate some handling but prefers to roll around on the ground. Princess loves belly scratches and doesn’t mind being picked up. She is aloof yet affectionate. Princess would do best in a quiet household with teens and small dogs. She is a beautiful ginger with interesting markings. Peach Cobbler (white face) is the queen. She demands attention and is not shy about getting noticed. Peach is a beautiful kitten with a mischievous side. She likes petting and handing, and loves sitting on laps. Peach will likely do well with children and dogs. FOSTER FAIL PENDING - Sweet Potato (orange face) is a bold and affectionate kitten. She loves attention and likes being picked up and handled. She is independent but loving. Very smart. Potato will likely do well in a house with children and dogs. Adoption Fee: $150 each/ 2 for $250 |
