(Mr.) Noel #lap-kitty-bed-buddy

You are here:
LOVES TO BE CARRIED AROUND

 

DOB 7/12/21

Are you looking for a uniquely marked tabby kitty who has small cheetah-like spots on his sides instead of the typical tabby stripes? Well I’m the man! Meow! Meow, everyone! I'm Noel, your perfect feline companion! I'm a very friendly, affectionate, loving, easygoing, and active cream-colored “spotted” tabby fella.

My foster mom calls me her favorite "lap cat" and her "bed buddy" because I love to snuggle. She rescued me as a baby who needed to be bottle-fed, so I love being carried around.  I live with cats and dogs, so I get along well with other cats and cat-friendly dogs. 

Why am I a "special needs" kitty? I was recently diagnosed with diabetes insipidus, a rare, relatively harmless disorder that causes my body to make too much urine. It’s easily controlled with daily eye drops. However, I will need an experienced owner who can give me my drops every day and monitor my drinking as well as...um...my “output” in case the dosage needs to be adjusted by the vet. Easy peasy!

No reason for you to pass me by since I’m such a lovable and loving spotted guy. Arrange to meet me today! My heart has so much love to give that all I need is YOU!

You are here:
4.5 POUNDS OF TUXEDO MISCHIEF

 

DOB 6/24/23

Meet Achilles, a typical tuxedo boy who will drive you crazy with his antics and make you fall in love at the same time. While his personality doesn't show well initially, give this ninja cat time to adjust, and he will show you some slick moves. Achilles has been described as a bulldozer, a karate boy, a snuggler...you just need to take this guy home to decide for yourself. Achilles might just steal your heart

Aleve #pain-reliever-kitty

You are here:
THIS BOY LIKES IT HOT!

 

DOB 4/7/23

Meow! Meow, everyone! My name is Aleve, one of the #pain-reliever-kittens. I'm a sweet, friendly, cuddly, loving black DSH/Bombay mix fella who loves hanging out with people and requires quality lap time with them. But if I get scared, boy howdy, do I get fluffy! I can be Foster Meowmy’s second shadow and often follow her wherever she’s going.

I’m somewhat of a couch potato because I love my naps. My favorite place, other than my hooman’s lap, is sunbathing in a patch of warm sunshine on the window sill. Like the 1959 movie title, “Some Like It Hot,” I’m just one of those kitties who thrives when the thermostat is turned up! I certainly help my foster family comply with ERCOT’s requests to conserve energy in the summer! And in the winter I'll want to snuggle up to your body's warmth.

My siblings and I were found under the house of my foster meowmy's neighbor. Thank heavens Foster Meowmy stepped up to the plate to foster us until we could be adopted. I’m learning to play soccer with ball toys, which is a fun new thing for me. I’m still figuring out how to skitter and scramble around to break my reputation of being a sluggish sloth.

I'm actively looking for the perfect venue for a nice snooze. Could that be your lap? Arrange to meet me! I have so much love to give -- all I need is YOU!

Alice #sister-of-Tris

You are here:
DREAMILY LOOKS UP INTO YOUR EYES

 

DOB 8/7/22

Mew! Mew, everyone! I’m Alice, a sweet, curious, playful Turkish Van mix gal who’s mostly white with gray tabby on my head and tail. Everyone falls in love with me when my beautiful face stares up into their eyes. I love food, love to play, and love to investigate my surroundings.

I was rescued by a kind woman who found me and my sisters Tris, Lucy, and Victoria as orphaned kittens when we were so young that we needed to be bottle-fed. Once we were eating on our own, our tenderhearted future Foster Meowmy responded to the plea on the HOPE FaceBook page that we needed someone to foster us until we were adopted. She brought us to our foster home, where we enjoy tumbling and pouncing, climbing and wrestling with each other until we collapse in a kitten puddle. I’m a happy girl whose life is a repeated cycle of play-sleep-eat.

Since we were bottle-fed and familiar with being handled by hoomans, we’ve always been very friendly and sociable – even with strangers. In fact, we come out to meet visitors! Although we haven’t been around kids in our foster home, I’m sure we’d be fine with well-mannered children because we’ve been very comfortable around the Great Pyrenees dog (I really bonded to him.) and the other resident cats. These kitties have acted like aunts and uncles who've taught us everything that our momma would've taught us if she'd been around.

I hope that I’ve piqued your interest and that you’ll arrange to meet me! Consider adopting me with my sister Tris. Two is better than one, and we could keep each other company while you’re at work or on vacation.

Angel #loving-uncle

You are here:
SHOULDER RIDER

 

DOB 10/31/22

Meow! Meow, everyone! I’m Angel, a.k.a. Uncle Angel to the younger foster kittens because I’m so nurturing and protective. I’m a sweet, quiet, and affectionate solid-gray Russian Blue/Chartreux mix fella with big round copper-penny eyes who adores my foster meowmy and shows my affection by cuddling with her or perching on her shoulder.

I’m a playful fella who enjoys romping with the other foster cats and kittens, and I’m an enthusiastic fan of wand toys like Da Bird. I also like to keep a watchful eye that the older kittens behave and don’t play too rough with little Janie. The top of the cat tree is my favorite vantage for me to rule as king of my domain!

My hooman surrendered me to the vet for euthanasia because I had really unsightly skin lesions on my chest and tummy. Fortunately the vet diagnosed that I did not have cancer but severe flea allergies. The vet turned to my future Foster Meowmy to ask if she could find me a new home, and she stepped up to the plate like a champ.

I’m pleased to report that after several months of being on Bravecto 3-month flea preventative and ZD prescription food, my skin is completely clear. I’m back to my stunningly handsome Russian Blue self again! True confessions: for the rest of my life I’ll likely have to eat prescription ZD food and promptly receive my flea preventative in order to prevent my skin allergy from raising its ugly head again.

Arrange to meet me today! I’m hoping that once you see my sweet face and experience my gentle demeanor, you’ll overlook my possible special-food needs and take me home with you. Your reward will be my sincere gratitude as well as a lifetime of love and cuddles.

Angel #spring-shower-litter

You are here:
JUST HEAVENLY IN EVERY WAY

 

DOB 5/4/23

Hi there! I’m Angel, a sweet, gentle, and beautiful torbie gal who got my name because of my calm and celestial demeanor. “Torbie” means that I’m mostly a tawny-brown tabby with strong pale orange streaks. I’m really quite unusual and striking eye candy, if I do say so myself. I’m a friendly lass who loves to greet people by rubbing my pheromones on them!

Foster Meowmy found Momma, my sisters Minnie, Spotty, and Juniper, and me in her yard one stormy May day. Thank heavens she brought us inside and promised to find us fantastic forever homes through HOPE. My foster home is calm and quiet without dogs or kids, but I can be very energetic at times, so I’m open to a home with kids. I fit in well with the friendly resident kitties.

Now I’m ready to find the forever home that I was promised, and if you’re looking for a sweet and gentle kitty cherub, I’m your girl! Arrange to meet me today! I promise to leave tiny paw prints all over your heart. Please consider adopting me with one of my sisters in the #spring-shower-litter so we can keep each other company while you’re at work or on vacation.

Aster #a-cat-for-all-seasons

You are here:
THE BRIGHT SPOT IN YOUR DAY

 

DOB 2/20/23

Just like Aster flowers that  continue to grow and bloom again year after year, Aster continues to grow from a little kitten found on the streets to a handsome tabby boy. And he shines brightly when in the right nurturing, happy environment. He loves sunbeams where he sits up tall and straight and relaxes when the sun goes down.  Bring Aster home and bring home some love.

Axl Rose #brother-of-Noto

You are here:
ALWAYS LOOKING FOR A LAP FOR CUDDLING

 

DOB 4/15/23

Meow! Meow, everyone! I’m Axl Rose, a sweet, affectionate, and outgoing black DSH/Bombay mix fella who was named after the hard-rock American lead singer of Guns N’ Roses. I have a sleek, shiny coat and am distinguished from my twin black brothers by my heart-shaped face and my gravelly voice. I’m gentle and will patiently wait for Foster Meowmy’s lap to be available for cuddling. When she’s busy, I snuggle with my twin brother Noto, with whom I’m especially bonded.

I’m an energetic young fellow who especially likes to display my athletic prowess as I lunge and leap when Foster Meowmy waves the wand toy over my head. Plus I’m actually very polite about sharing the wand toy with my siblings. And of course, I tumble and pounce, climb and wrestle with my four brothers. (Sister Cali doesn’t like to rough-house with the gang.) I prefer a quiet home because I often am skittish when I hear sudden noises.

I was born to a feral momma whom Foster Meowmy eventually trapped, spayed, and returned to her neighborhood. When we were ready to be weaned, Foster Meowmy snapped up my #dark-n-shady-six litter and brought us inside to safety and to socialize us for our future fantastic homes. Arrange to meet me today, and consider adopting me with my twin brother Noto. That way we can keep each other company while you’re at work or on vacation.

Bagheera #brother-of-Mowgli

You are here:
SHY ROMANTIC GUY

 

DOB 9/10/22

Looking for a bedfellow? One who won't take all the blankets or infringe on your personal space? Bagheera, which is Hindi for "panther," may be the guy for you. He's extremely shy and will take time to adjust to your home, but once he does, he'll be your constant companion. He won't ask for much but will want to be with you and occasionally sit in your lap. His second favorite place to rest is on an ottoman or in a cardboard box.

Are you a patient, caring person? Bagheera would love to meet you.

Banksy #graffiti-boy

You are here:
STREET URCHIN TO PAMPERED PET

 

DOB 4/28/23

Have you ever seen a kitten whose body looks like a canvas that a graffiti artist has started splashing with tiny spots of black paint? Meow! Meow, everyone! I’m Banksy, a sweet and playful fella who’s pure white except for a black semi-colon between my ears. I’m one of the #graffiti-boys who were all named after graffiti street-artists because our momma Clara birthed us on the mean streets of Houston. The good news is that I’m a little street urchin no longer. No siree! I’ve been babied, cuddled, and kissed ever since I was rescued and started living in my foster home, where I eat yummy culinary delights and sleep on soft down pillows! Yep, I’m truly a pauper-turned-prince!

My brothers, Zephyr and Donti, and I are fascinated by everything in the bathroom. That’s because there’s all kinds of great things there -- toilet paper, paper towels, rugs, humans, toys, shampoo, water, and our favorite, the occasional roach. I can’t describe the fun of rolling ping pong balls and cat spring-toys – anything with curves – along the sides of the bathtub like it’s the perfect skateboard park.

And it’s fun to sit on the edge of the tub and play hide-and-seek behind the shower curtain. We’ve destroyed a few shower curtains by batting each other with our little claws, but Foster Meowmy thinks that’s a small price to pay for the hours of enjoyment we have playing peek-a-boo through the clear plastic.

If you’re looking for hours of entertainment with a handsome fella’s who’s a feast to the eyes, I’m your man! Arrange to meet me today, and consider adopting me with both of my brothers or momma Clara so we can keep each other company while you’re at work or on vacation. Just think – you can get all your cat-needs met with our little Instacat family.

Barbie #New-Years-Day-kitty

You are here:
SASSY AND BEAUTIFUL

 

DOB 1/1/17

Hi there! I’m Barbie, an affectionate, sweet-faced bicolor tabby gal who’s mostly white with silver tabby on my head, torso, and tail. I’m an outgoing, spunky, but opinionated little lady who absolutely loves to cuddle in my foster meowmy’s lap.

I’m a playful girl whose favorite things are kitty tunnels, boxes, and toy mice. When I need a "time out" after playing or from my housemates, I  prefer to bask in sunbeams on the windowsill or curl up on top of the refrigerator.

I get along pretty well with other foster kitties and would do well in a household with a laid-back cat or dog but probably not with small children. Arrange to meet me today!

Bas #loves-dogs-and cats

You are here:
GOLDEN BOY

 

DOB 4/11/22

Hey there, everyone! I’m Bas, a happy, sweet-natured, very playful tawny “tuxedo” tabby with white mittens and vest. I snuggle up beside Foster Meowmy so we can binge together on Animal Planet or Netflix. But I’m no couch potato! No siree! I love to play soccer with foam balls, sparkly puffs, and cat spring toys. I’m quite dog-like in that I actually play fetch with the toys Foster Meowmy throws, and sometimes I even bring them back.

I was found as an orphan stray, but thankfully HOPE stepped in to find me a forever home. I fit in immediately to the dynamics of my foster home, so I get along great with the resident dogs and lead the other cats during our playtimes. (Somebody’s got to coach them!) During my quieter moments, I like to bask in a patch of warm sunshine and observe everything that walks, scampers, or flies by.

Arrange to meet me today! My ideal family would have other cats and friendly dogs to keep me company while you’re at work or on vacation. And don’t forget to have a supply of my favorite treat, Churus squeezables. Plus I like to lick the lids of my canned food.

Birdie #chirper

You are here:
LITTLE CUTE TABBY GIRL

 

DOB 9/15/23

Birdie is in search of a quiet home where she can have time to adjust to a new home and her new family. Once settled in, she loves sitting in laps to purr quietly and contentedly.

The things Birdie loves are:

- cat trees in front of window sills or window seats where she can look out and talk to the birds.

- tunnels or Amazon boxes that she can rest or run through.

- other kitties to snuggle up with or even friendly dogs 

- quiet nights in your lap watching Animal Planet or watching your cursor on the monitor.  Please help Birdie find her forever home before she becomes just another full-grown tabby cat.

Bloom #chatty-Cathy-doll

You are here:
CAN BE A BALL OF ZOOMING ENERGY

 

DOB 12/8/22

Hey there, everyone! I’m Bloom, a sweet, talkative, playful silver tabby gal with big, green eyes who likes to tell you how I feel about things! Foster Meowmy rescued me as a neighborhood stray. Boy howdy, I was glad when she brought me inside to safety! At first I was very shy and skittish as I allowed hands, loud noises, and new people to frighten me.

Thank heavens Foster Meowmy knew to be patient with me, and it wasn’t too long before I came out of my shell and starting displaying my rambunctious personality. I can transform into a ball of energy who zooms around the house and plays with anything because, in my eyes, everything is a toy – including fingers and toes.

I also have a cuddly side to my personality as I like to sleep in bed with Foster Meowmy. My favorite post-playtime activity is basking in a patch of sunshine at the top of the cat tree. My ideal home would be a quiet one with one other male cat, although I tolerate the resident dogs in my foster home. 

Arrange to meet me today so I can play “tootsie” with you! True confessions: the noise at adoption day makes me cower in my cage, but I hope you'll still want to take me home to see my "zoomies" in action. Incidentally, there are advantages to adopting a kitty like me who's past the stage of kitten mayhem. I'm much less likely to cause chaos in your home and break your cherished accessories.

Bowser #brother-of-Squirt

You are here:
HAPPY TO PLAY, HAPPY TO PURR

 

DOB 9/15/23

Hey there, everyone! I’m Boszer, and I’m a sweet, playful taupe tabby who looks identical to my twin brother Squirt except that I’m slightly darker. I absolutely love my “bestie” Squirt -- so much that we are inseparable. I’m quick to turn on my purr motor, which sounds like a perking coffeepot. I exult when I’m playing and will chase anything that moves.

I’m quite attached to my Foster Meowmy and always want to be with her, whether she’s sitting, lying down, or walking. In fact, I’m like her little shadow in that I follow her around from room to room. I keep hoping that she will reward me with a blueberry dog treat.

She had been feeding my feral momma, who outwitted future Foster Meowmy when she tried to trap Momma. Eventually Momma brought Squirt and me to Meowmy when we were six weeks old. We allowed ourselves to be caught and adjusted well to the indoor life. We even made friends with the resident chi-pin puppy, who ends up being a great playmate.

Now I’m ready to find my forever home, so I hope you’ll arrange to meet me. Consider adopting me with Squirt since we are so bonded to each other. That way we could keep each other company while you’re at work or on vacation. Let’s write a new chapter in our lives together!

Churro #thrives-on-attention

You are here:
SUPER-AFFECTIONATE AND CUDDLY

 

DOB 7/4/23

Hey there, everyone! My name is Churro, and I was named for the crunchy, sugar-sprinkled, fried dough because I’m as sweet as this scrumptious Spanish dessert. I’m a super-affectionate, friendly, cuddly grey tabby gal with strikingly bold black stripes on my legs and sides. I luxuriate in Foster Meowmy’s attention, and if I feel that she’s ignoring me, I rub my head into her hand or against her face so that she’s forced to pet me. All the better to spread my pheromones on her.

I love to lie in Meowmy’s lap and make biscuits on her tummy and purr sweet nothings in her ear. Of course, I’m always ready to slurp up the squeezable Churu treats when she’s dispensing them. But I’m no couch potato! Nor siree! I adore playing interactively when Foster Meowmy waves the wand toy over my head or drags it enticingly around the floor. In fact, I become so enthusiastic about a game of wand-chasing that I’ll actually “smile” and pant like a dog.

I was a young stray who took refuge in a garage in Foster Meowmy’s neighborhood for a week, and I refused to come out until Foster Meowmy rescued me and brought me home with her. Once I arrived at my foster home, I fit in like a glove. I’m a brave, fearless gal who never hesitated to approach the resident dogs and cats. They’ve all become my friends, and we get along great. Nothing fazes me, and this includes the vacuum cleaner!  Either I’ll lie in the middle of its path or follow Foster Meowmy around while she’s vacuuming.

So if you’re looking for well-adjusted kitty who gives as much affection as she likes to soak up from her hoomans, I’m the girl for you! Also, it’s handy that I’m impervious to noise and not intimidated by furry friends, so I’d fit into a lot of active-family dynamics. Arrange to meet me today! I’m the perfect dessert that you need in your life!

Clara #dainty-green-eyed-beauty

You are here:
JOINS IN THE ROUGHHOUSING WITH HER BOYS

 

DOB 4/14/21

Mew! Mew, everyone! I’m Clara, a super-sweet, quiet, demure charcoal grey and white tuxedo gal who’s actually the retired momma of the #graffiti-boys litter. I'm a real beauty because I have a sleek, shiny coat that's soft as a bunny's fur, and my big green eyes are mesmerizing!

I’m not a big fan of being picked up, but I love it when Foster Meowmy scratches my chin, cheeks, and chin as well as when she gently caresses my back. I was initially shy when I first arrived in my foster home, but once I got to know and trust Foster Meowmy (thanks to treats and yummy food!), I started relaxing.

Meowmy is very conscious that sudden movements make me nervous, so she makes sure that she moves around me very slowly. You see, I was rescued from an apartment complex as a stray momma cat with my three boys, so my radar always on the alert for danger to protect my babies from predators. Admittedly, it took a while for that mindset to be discarded and for me to wake up to the reality that I was suddenly living in a safe, secure environment of plenty.

Although my three boys, Dondi, Zephyr, and Banksy, were weaned long ago, I can’t resist being the “helicopter momma” who’s always in the background watching out for them. Even though I’m a dainty lass, I even join in their roughhousing from time to time. I become somewhat of a police officer when it comes to the other resident cats and my boys. The fact is – I’ll always love my sons!

Most of the time, I stay out of the way and am as quiet as a mouse. (Who wouldn't be when her sons are such flamboyant characters?) I’m happy to keep to myself and don’t demand a lot of attention from Foster Meowmy, although I luxuriate when she does pet me. Now it’s time for me and my family to find out forever homes. All I ask for is a quiet home with people who know the power of a gentle touch. And it would be the cat's meow if I could be adopted with Banksy.

Clementine #expert-biscuit-maker

You are here:
PURRING THAT SOUNDS LIKE A PERKING COFFEEPOT

 

DOB 7/1/23

Hey there, everyone! I’m Clementine, a friendly, affectionate, and beautiful dilute tortie gal who loves to lie next to my foster meowmy. Then I turn on my purr motor as well as make biscuits to show my ecstasy while she pets me. Before I plop down, I like to circle her to rub my pheromones on her first. Of course, I’m always hoping that she’ll get out the Churu squeezable treats for me to lick off her finger . . . or throw my favorite catnip toy pickle for me to play soccer with and then embrace.

Faced with having to “move fast from a bad situation,” my former owner reached out on HOPE’s FaceBook page to ask for someone to help find me a new home. Thank heavens my future foster meowmy stepped up to the plate to save me from going to a shelter through no fault of my own. Understandably I was a little bit shy and withdrew into my shell when I first came to my foster home because, with two dogs, 3 cats, and one child, it was much fuller than I’d been accustomed to! Although I’d probably prefer a mellower forever home, it didn’t take me long to warm up to my new hooman and furry companions as well as my new “digs.” I get along okay with all the other cats, but admittedly I’m still a little hesitant with the dogs.

If you’re in the market for a loving young feline beauty, I’m the girl for you! Arrange to meet me so I can sound like a perking coffeepot when I turn on my purr machine. Don’t you want an expert biscuit-maker next to your side to keep you company while we binge on Netflix and Animal Planet?

Cleocatra #craves-attention

You are here:
VERY ACCEPTING OF LOVING TODDLERS

 

DOB 6/22/22

Hey there, everyone! I’m Cleocatra, and my sky-blue eyes make me a bewitching femme fatale, just like my hooman counterpart. I’m a sweet, friendly, playful bicolor grey-tabby-with white/ Siamese mix gal who luxuriates in all the attention that my foster family lavishes on me. I serenely tolerate even the most heavy-handed petting, cuddling, and grabbing by my toddler foster sister. In fact, I can be very vocal if I feel that I’m being neglected. I’m really quite an amazingly social gal who enthusiastically cherishes head scratches, back rubs, and lap cuddles – even from tiny hoomans.

Other than snuggle-time, my favorite parts of the day are playtime and treat time. I’m a regular soccer striker because of the way I chase fuzzy balls and catnip mice around the house, and I love to shred feathers that are waved enticingly over my head. My tiny hooman has endeared herself to me by offering me squeezable Churus and crunchy Temptation treats.

It wasn’t long ago that I was fearlessly fending for myself, living paw-to-mouth on the mean streets of Houston. Thank heavens Foster Meowmy noticed me in her neighborhood and slowly coaxed me inside. Once indoors full-time, I adjusted easily to all the inside amenities like climate control, brimming food/water bowls, and warm beds. It’s as if I were always meant to be exclusively indoors. However, as a carryover of being an outdoor stray, I do not like or trust the resident dogs, and I make it clear to them to stay out of my personal space. It’s a nuisance to have to set boundaries for these pesky creatures continuously, so I’d prefer a home without dogs.

If you’re searching for a beautiful, well-adjusted feline to rule your family dynasty, I’m your girl! I’d especially welcome a home with a toddler or young child who will snuggle with me and feed me my favorite treats. Of course, I certainly wouldn’t turn down any attention that an older hooman wants to shower on me! Incidentally, there are advantages to adopting a kitty who’s beyond the craziness of kitten mayhem. I’m much less likely to cause chaos in your home or break any of your prized accessories.

LOOKS FOR MISCHIEF

 

DOB 8/15/23

Meow, Meow, everyone! I’m Darcy, a gentle, alert, and curious “bicolor” fella who’s mostly white with brown tabby on my head, back, and tail. I have a really cute brown patch on my white nose. My namesake is Mr. Darcy, as in Pride and Prejudice. That’s because I’m always looking for trouble and like to observe everything going on around me.

My three brothers and I were all rescued from a neighborhood feral cat colony by our future foster meowmy. Now I’m ready to find my forever home. Arrange to meet me and so you can kiss the brown spot on my nose.

Delta #son-of-Mia

You are here:
INITIALLY CAUTIOUS RED PLAYBOY

 

DOB 3/4/23

Meow! Meow, everyone! I’m Delta, a sweet, active, initially cautious red tabby fella whose slogan is “play very hard, and then snuggle in bed with Foster Meowmy.” I’m one of the #Tip-Top-Trio of kittens who was brought by our friendly stray momma Mia when we were three weeks old to a lady’s apartment back patio. Thank heavens our future foster meowmy stepped up to the plate and agreed to foster our whole family!

I love to explore inside the long kitty tunnel where sometimes I even rest for a bit of snuggling with other kitties I’m always looking for another critter to play with. That could be my siblings, Momma Mia, the resident dog, or the other cats and foster kittens. After I’m exhausted from chasing all the critters around the house, I collapse in a kitten puddle with my brothers and my toys.  Arrange to meet me today! And you might consider adopting me with my Mamma Mia.

Dondi #graffiti-boy

You are here:
STREET URCHIN TO PAMPERED PET

 

DOB 4/28/23

Have you ever seen a kitten whose body looks like a canvas that a graffiti artist has started splashing with tiny spots of black paint? Meow! Meow, everyone! I’m Dondi, a sweet and playful fella who’s pure white except for my black toupee and pale smudges of gray on my shoulders, back, and haunches. I’m one of the #graffiti-boys who were all named after graffiti street-artists because our momma Clara birthed us on the mean streets of Houston. The good news is that I’m a little street urchin no longer. No siree! I’ve been babied, cuddled, and kissed ever since I was rescued and started living in my foster home, where I eat yummy culinary delights and sleep on soft down pillows! Yep, I’m truly a pauper-turned-prince!

My brothers, Banksy and Zephyr, and I are fascinated by everything in the bathroom. That’s because there’s all kinds of great things there -- toilet paper, paper towels, rugs, humans, toys, shampoo, water, and our favorite, the occasional roach. I can’t describe the fun of rolling ping pong balls and cat spring-toys – anything with curves – along the sides of the bathtub like it’s the perfect skateboard park.

And it’s fun to sit on the edge of the tub and play hide-and-seek behind the shower curtain. We’ve destroyed a few shower curtains by batting each other with our little claws, but Foster Meowmy thinks that’s a small price to pay for the hours of enjoyment we have playing peek-a-boo through the clear plastic.

I’m particularly bonded to Zephyr. We’re always up to some kind of kitten business – exploring, menacing each other, wrestling. When we’re exhausted, we collapse in a kitten puddle with Banksy and may even nuzzle with our sweet momma Clara.

If you’re looking for hours of entertainment with a handsome fella’s who’s a feast to the eyes, I’m your man! Arrange to meet me today, and consider adopting me with Zephyr (and don’t forget Banksy!) so we can keep each other company while you’re at work or on vacation. Just think – you can get all your cat-needs met with our little Instacat family.

Drake #loves-to-be-held

You are here:
ALL-STAR BISCUIT-MAKER

 

DOB 3/19/23

Looking for an affectionate, adventurous furry companion who loves people and thrives on attention?  Well, I think I fill the bill! I’m Drake, a sweet gentle-giant of a brown tabby who likes to be held and petted -- that is, as long as I don’t get allured into jumping down to play with my siblings.

I follow Foster Meowmy everywhere because I want to know everything that’s going on and “help” her with whatever she’s doing.  It’s amazing what I’ll do  when Foster Meowmy tantalizes me with Temptations! I’ll come from wherever I am in the house when I hear her rattle the bag.

I’m the largest of my litter, which also includes Nikki and Sylvester. Also known as the #3-mouseketeers, we were rescued with our momma Nina as apartment-complex strays in southwest Houston. Now in our foster home, we have so much fun tumbling and pouncing, climbing and wrestling with each other, and I relish every moment.

I’m friendly with the other kitties and tolerate the resident dogs in my foster home, and I’m never more aggressive than playing with a dog’s tail. Often m y twin sister Nikki and I lie in our cat bed and make biscuits together. Arrange to meet me today!

Dumpling and Dim Sum (bonded brothers)

You are here:
THEY ALWAYS PURR AND MAKE BISCUITS CONTENTEDLY

 

DOB 3/15/23

Meow! Meow, everyone! We’re Dumpling and Dim Sum, a bonded pair of brown-tabby brothers who are ultra-sweet, friendly, and affectionate. We love to cuddle with our hoomans almost as much as with each other. We’re a happy pair who’s always purring and making biscuits, whether we’re snuggled with each other or having our chins scratched in Foster Meowmy’s lap.

A Good Samaritan found us and dropped us off at PetSmart/Pearland, and thankfully our foster meowmy agreed to welcome us into her home until we can find a fantastic forever home. She’s insisting that we be adopted together because we’re inseparable best friends who love each other very much.

We fit into our foster home beautifully. We enjoy playing with each other as well as when Foster Meowmy interacts with us using a wand toy with enticing hanging balls. We’re also curious and love to explore, so watch those open cabinet and closet doors! We may sneak inside for a peek.

I heard Foster Meowmy tell someone, “It’s been amazing watching Dumpling and Dim Sum grow up into such fine young gentlemen. They’d be a wonderful addition to any family. We hate to see them go, but they deserve a forever home to share their abundant love with their forever owners.” Hope you’re convinced that you should arrange to meet us right away! We plan to be at the PetSmart/Pearland Saturday adoption day every week.

Elsa #craves-treats

You are here:
INDEPENDENT & INQUISITIVE

 

DOB 8/25/21

Hello everyone! I’m Elsa, a sweet, stunningly beautiful black DSH/Bombay mix with a sleek, shiny patent-leather coat and big, copper-penny eyes. I’m independent and very inquisitive. I’m initially shy but am so food-driven that I always nudge closer to my foster meowmy for a good treat.

I love to tumble and pounce, climb and wrestle with my siblings. I can also entertain myself because I love balls with bells, catnip mice, and crinkle toys. Plus I’m very comfortable around the dogs and other cats in my foster home.

Hopefully you're not superstitious because, as Groucho Marx said, "A black cat's crossing your path signifies that he's going somewhere." I’m so grateful that I was rescued into a foster home because black cats are five times more likely to be euthanized at a shelter. Most people who adopt black cats once want to adopt one again because of their outstanding personalities and emotional stability.

I hope you’ll arrange to meet me! I’d like nothing better than for you to open your heart and home to me. I’ll need patience and time to come out of my shell in my new digs, but it will be worth the effort! I’m one little black panther who’ll leave tiny paw prints all over your heart

SWEET ROUND-FACED GIRL

 

DOB 12/25/21

Who doesn't love a chunky cat who just wants to share her love with you? Fennel almost looks like she's smiling, and every time you look at her, you can't help but smile.

Fennel is a low-maintenance-type of kitty who is meticulously clean and well-behaved. She may ask for attention, but if you're busy, she may walk away. Give this girl a treat or catnip, and she'll be your friend for life. Take Fennel home and see how she'll enrich your life.

Fiona #bundle-of-love

You are here:
YOUR PERSONAL OFFICE ASSISTANT

 

DOB 1/1/20

Mew! Mew, everyone! I’m Princess Fiona. Okay, it’s really just Fiona, but I like to think of myself as a princess. I’m a sweet, loving calico gal who LOVES my hoomans, and I mean LOVES them.  I make air biscuits a lot when Foster Meowmy rubs my back and belly, and I’m in kitty heaven when she scratches my chin or ears. Because I have a little bit of an overbite, I often purr with my mouth slightly open, which Foster Meowmy thinks is super cute.

She describes me as “full of love.” Although I don’t like to be picked up and held much, I love to climb up in Foster Meowmy’s lap, sit on her desk, or happily sleep on her bed. Unfortunately, I won’t be a great work-from-home buddy until I learn to stay off Foster Meowmy’s keyboard.

Interestingly, I have a “startle reflex” to scratch out when I don’t know who’s petting me while I sleep or while I’m just staring off into space. Foster Meowmy thinks I shouldn’t be adopted into a home with kids under eight years old because I would hate, in my surprise, to scratch someone by accident.

I merely tolerate the resident cats – as long as they are chill and don’t get in my face. On the other hand, I do not get along at all with the small friendly resident dog. It would be just fine with me if I were the only “pet” child because that means there’d be no competition for my hooman’s attention.

I’m a stunning plus-size model. I’ve got a large frame, but then again, I’m admittedly a little bit chubby. I love food. I see it, and I want to eat it! Since I’m not a picky eater, the best remedy is not to offer me free-choice food all day long.  What should do the trick is a feeding schedule and interactive exercise for me to pounce, chase, and lunge when my Foster Meowmy dangles a wand toy over my head.

I was found as a stray in southwest Houston, so I’m grateful for my foster home. However, I know that a home of my very own is what’s best for me. If you’re looking for a kitty who will think that you’re the sun and the moon, I’m the bundle-of-love gal for you! Arrange to meet me!

Incidentally, one of the advantages of adopting an adult kitty like me who's past the rambunctious kitten stage is that I'll create less chaos in your home and not be as likely to break your treasured accessories.

George #brother-of-Harry

You are here:
CURIOSITY GETS THE BEST OF ME

 

DOB 3/6/23

Looking for a great furry companion who's really quite funny and silly? Then I'm you're man! I'm George, a sweet and adorable spotted red tabby fella who always has a surprised look on my face. Yes, like George Weasely of Harry Potter fame, I'm a George with flaming red hair.

My favorite activity is playtime, and I love interactive play with my foster meowmy when she waves the wand toy over my head. My curiosity gets the best of me, and I'll follow Foster Meowmy all over the house because I can't resist chasing string and feathers! I’m also a very inquisitive little guy, and I find folding laundry and other daily tasks fascinating to watch!

I'm one of the #crazy-8-gang who was born to a feral momma in Foster Meowmy's neighborhood. Thankfully she scooped us all up to bring us inside. I love to play tag with my many siblings! We tumble and pounce, climb and wrestle, and when we're exhausted, we collapse in a kitten puddle for a nap.

I'm looking for a home where hoomans will play with me and love me a lot! I hope you'll arrange to meet me so I can leave tiny paw prints all over your heart. Since I'm not a leader, I usually follow around my brother Harry. So consider adopting me with him so we can keep each other company while you're at work or on vacation.

Godzilla #monster-duo-kitty

You are here:
GOOFY, SASSY FELLA

 

DOB 8/24/19

Howdy everyone! I’m Godzilla, a goofy, sassy, curious, and energetic brown tabby fella who’s proud of my monster-name. I may be a big boy like Godzilla, but I’m a sweet marshmallow at heart. I absolutely LOVE people and the cuddles that we share.

I get along great with the other gentle cats in my foster home as well as a service dog who drops by occasionally. I’m accustomed to the calm and quiet of my foster home, so I’d probably do best in a home without chaos and without kids.

My sisters Mothra and Woobee were found with me as orphan kittens during Tropical Storm Imelda. My foster mom heard my crying on a driveway, and she says that I’ve continued to let everyone know my opinions ever since. I was the runt of my litter and was bottle-fed by my foster family. Boy did I love my bottle!

Those “nursing” sessions ended up being a great time to bond with my humans and probably explain why I’m so sociable with people. The bottle has now been replaced with cat treats, which have probably contributed to my “plus-size.”

If you’re looking for a friendly feline companion who’s past the mayhem of kittenhood, I’m your man! Although I'm available separately, it would be the cat’s meow if I could be adopted with one of my sisters. That way we could keep each other company while you’re at work or on vacation. Arrange to meet me today! I promise to leave tiny paw prints all over your heart.

Harry #brother-of-George

You are here:
GIVES KITTEN HANDSHAKES

 

DOB 3/6/23

Hello there! I'm Harry, and just like Prince Harry, I have the "ginger gene," which is responsible for my flaming red hair. I'm a winsome, entertaining tabby fella who’s easy to pick up and cuddle. I love to snuggle with Foster Meowmy as well as greet her with a "kitten handshake," i.e. touch my nose to her hand.  I also cleverly learned to give high-fives with my paw. I’m quite a chatty chap because I chirp and meow to my family when I'm feeling comfy and happy.

I can’t resist playtime whether it’s with kids, other kitties, or myself. I'm full of energy, and interactive play with my foster family is my favorite calorie-burner. I’ll chase strings all day long if someone will play with me! I love all sorts of toys, especially little stuffed animals and balls that I can bat around and chase. After I‘ve played soccer with them, I’ll carry the soft, fuzzy ones around in my mouth. When I’ve had a surfeit in the exercise department, I'll jump on and climb the cat tree to catch my breath or perhaps a quick cat nap.

I'm one of the #crazy-8-gang who was born to a feral momma in Foster Meowmy's neighborhood. Thankfully she scooped us all up to bring us inside. I love to play with my many siblings! We tumble and pounce, climb and wrestle, and when we're exhausted, we collapse in a kitten puddle for a nap.

I hope you'll arrange to meet me so you can find out that I’m more fun than a barrel of monkeys. Since I'm the leader of my pack, my siblings follow me around. Consider adopting me with my brother George so we can keep each other company while you're at work or on vacation.

Indy #copper-penny-eyes

You are here:
EASY-GOING LOVEBUG

 

DOB 9/1/21

Howdy everyone! I’m Indy, a handsome, easy-going black DSH/Bombay mix dude with a sleek, shiny patent-leather coat and big, copper-penny eyes. It took me a while to learn that being petted, chin scratches, and lap time with my foster dad might just be a good thing. My mom Luna led the way, so I started curling up on my foster dad’s warm chest for a quick power nap and discovered that it was pretty delightful.

My favorite pastimes include following my foster dad into the bathroom (Bombay mixes can be very dog-like), looking handsome, and watching the world go by as I bask in a patch of sunshine on a windowsill. My favorite likes are dry food, toys with tassels, and warm beds.

I hope you're not superstitious because, as Groucho Marx said, "A black cat's crossing your path signifies that he's going somewhere." I’m so glad that I came to my HOPE foster home because black cats are five times more likely to be euthanized at a shelter. Most people who adopt black cats once want to adopt one again because of their outstanding personalities and emotional stability.

Arrange to meet me today. Find out if YOUR chest could be my next napping station!

Jack #Black-Jack

You are here:
CURE ME OF MY LONELY BLUES

 

DOB 6/1/12

Hey there, it's Jack! I'm your typical Velcro kitty who sticks close to my favorite hoomans as they move around the house. Cuddling is my absolute favorite pastime, and I'm an expert at turning any moment into a cozy one. Cuddle sessions are always my top priority because I cherish every moment with my hooman friends!

But I’m no couch potato! No siree! Despite my mature years, I haven't lost my playful side. You should see me dive in and frolic with my favorite toys! 

My journey's been a rollercoaster -- from wandering a parking lot as a kitten to a brief shelter stay to 11 years with a family. Sadly, a rowdy new puppy that nipped me led to my adoptive family’s abandoning me. A kind soul took me in, but her health issues meant we had to part ways. Now I’m in foster care and loved by my foster parents, but the resident cats aren't exactly throwing a welcome party. I feel a bit isolated if I'm in my foster room because, as I said, hooman companionship is essential to me.

My foster family believes that the best fit for my sensitive nature is a tranquil home where I have free rein to move around without unfriendly pets. True confessions: initially I can be timid and might take more time than your average cat to adjust. I hide at unfamiliar noises, but once I sense cuddles, I eagerly emerge. After settling in, my warm meows echo throughout the house. This is my way of saying, "I'm part of the crew now!"

I'm on the lookout for a forever home, and I anticipate spending my golden years basking in the mutual love I’ll share with my hoomans. If you have room in your heart for an affectionate senior companion, I'm your boy -- Jack!

Jason Todd #Batman-litter

You are here:
CHARISMATIC AND SPIRITED

 

DOB 5/7/23

Are you longing for a furry friend who's as full of energy as affection? Meet me, charismatic and spirited Jason Todd, who's ready to bring joy, laughter, and endless cuddles into your life. I’m a kitten who's always ready to embark on new and thrilling experiences. Beyond my adventurous demeanor, I have a softer side that adores cuddles and quality time with Foster Meowmy. What's a love of exploration if I have no one to share it with? I’m always there for her in an instant, ready to provide comfort after a long day.

Named after the third Robin in the comic-book series Batman, I’m known for my outgoing personality and heart of gold. My energy knows no bounds! I’m a whirlwind of fun and games that’s always ready to chase after toys, pounce on imaginary prey, and keep Foster Meowmy entertained with my boundless enthusiasm.

I’m a black DSH/Bombay mix fella with expressive gold eyes and sprinkles of salt mixed in my black fur. I’m an instant head-turner, if I do say so myself. My gorgeous appearance is matched only by my captivating personality, which adds up to my being a kitten few will be able to resist.

My stray momma birthed my four Batman siblings and me at an apartment complex in Cypress, and thankfully we came to Foster Meowmy’s home for her to give us a chance at an enriched indoor life. Now I’m ready to find my forever home where I can be Johnny-on-the-spot to comfort my hooman after a long day. Perhaps my next adventure is with you!

Jenna #cuddle-expert

You are here:
ENDEARING PERSONALITY, UNDYING DEVOTION

 

DOB 9/21/18

Looking for a sweet, affectionate kitty who will make you feel cherished by her gentle purrs and head nudges? Then I’m the perfect gal for you! Mew! Mew, everyone! I’m Jenna, a loyal and loving black DSH/Bombay gal who’s a real cuddle expert. At bedtime, I curl up next to Foster Meowmy to share her warmth and comfort throughout the night.

Although I’m initially timid when I meet someone, once they warm up to me and I get to know them, I luxuriate in being stroked down my back as well as scratched on my chin, cheeks, and ears. I’m more of a lap cat than a fan of being picked up and carried around. My eyes light up with excitement at the sight and smell of snacks because I’m always up for a tasty treat. One of my favorite pastimes is watching the birds outside the window because I’m captivated by their graceful flights and playful chirps.

My street-stray momma ran inside future Foster Meowmy’s home and immediately birthed my litter of four under her bed. Foster Meowmy turned to HOPE to help get us vetted as well as adopted, and, sure enough, I was adopted as the Pet of the Week at the PetSmart Pearland.

Unfortunately, I was found in a trap several years later. I can’t explain to Foster Meowmy exactly what happened, but she thinks either I was dumped outdoors, or else I dashed out the door and couldn’t find my way back home. As a previously indoor kitty, I wasn’t used to foraging for prey, so the yummy food attracted me inside the trap. Of course, the was traced back to HOPE through my trusty microchip, thank heavens.

When Meowmy took me to the vet to get updated vaccines, I tested positive for FIV (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus). Who knows how long I’d been outside, but probably I contracted FIV from a deep bite wound from an intact male cat. (Unlike Feline Leukemia, FIV is NOT passed on "casually" by sharing food bowls and litter boxes with other household cats.) Being FIV positive means that I should live an average life span as long as my dental health is routinely monitored and prompt attention is given to any urinary-tract or upper-respiratory infections.

Despite my loving nature, I’ve admittedly had some real setbacks in my life. However, my spirit has never been dampened! I certainly deserve a caring and understanding family the second time around. With my endearing personality and undying devotion, I promise to be a constant source of joy and love in my next family’s life.

Arrange to meet me today! And you know there are advantages to adopting a kitty like me who’s outgrown the stage of kitten mayhem. I’m much less likely to cause chaos in your home or break your treasured accessories.

Talkative, tippy-toe, tabby cat

 

DOB 5/18/23

 This very unique kitty is not a fan of being held as he loves his tippy-toes and rubbing up to you instead.  Loving the company of other talkative and friendly cats, Jin adjusts to quiet environments the best as he wants to be the one to make the music.  Meet Jin and fall in love.

Juniper #spring-shower-litter

You are here:
LOVES TO SPREAD HER PHERONOMES

 

DOB 5/4/23

Hi there! I’m Juniper, a cute, crafty, and clever brown tabby “ninja” gal who got my name because I’m a little “Junior” who looks like my dad. I’m initially shy with people, but once I warm up, I love to cuddle and to rub my pheromones on everyone!

Foster Meowmy found Momma, my sisters Minnie, Spotty, and Angel, and me in her yard one stormy May day. Thank heavens she brought us inside and promised to find us fantastic forever homes through HOPE. My foster home is calm and quiet without dogs or kids, but I have quite a rambunctious streak in me, so I’m open to a home with kids. I fit in well with the friendly resident kitties.

Now I’m ready to find the forever home that I was promised, and if you’re looking for a shy but sweet “June bug,” I’m your girl! Arrange to meet me today! I promise to leave tiny paw prints all over your heart. Please consider adopting me with one of my sisters in the #spring-shower-litter so we can keep each other company while you’re at work or on vacation.

Kai #king-pin

You are here:
GENTLE GIANT IN PROGRESS

 

DOB 3/22/23

Meow! Meow, everyone! I’m Kai, which means "king" in Persian. I’m a loving, affectionate, gentle, playful red tabby fella who’s the biggest of my litter. Foster Meowmy predicts that I’ll grow up to be a gentle giant. I love to play with toys as well as my siblings. After we tumble and pounce, climb and wrestle, I like to find a patch of sunlight on a window ledge to take a long-deserved nap.

My momma Goldie Hawn showed up as a pregnant stray at a feral feeding station in Tyler. Thank heavens a HOPE volunteer transported her to Houston and delivered her to our foster meowmy’s home the day before she gave birth to our litter of six!

I hope you’ll arrange to meet me. Consider adopting me with another kitten. Two is better than one, and we could keep each other company while you’re at work or on vacation.

Kaori #Velcro-kitty

You are here:
LOVES SITTING BY YOUR SIDE

 

DOB 5/15/23

I'm a cat. Need I say more? I'm independent, so don't pick me up when I don't want to be. But if I choose to sit by your side, lavish me with pets or brushing. At least until I decide I've had enough.  I often choose to go off and play and explore by myself and I'm fine with that. Please don't interrupt my grand adventures.

I do get along with other friendly cats and love playing hide 'n seek or chase with them. Show me a staircase, and I'll get to the top before you can blink. After you settle down for the night, I will sometimes want to come and snuggle with you or keep your feet warm.

Hope you like more independent women because I am definitely that. Come meet me and see for yourself. Please no dogs, unless they are old and will allow me free run of the house.

Link #pound-of-fluff

You are here:
MARCO POLO THE EXPLORER

 

DOB 3/15/23

Meow! Meow, everyone! I’m Link, a brave, brawny, curious tuxedo Maine Coon mix fella with a big plume of a tail and a cute black button nose. I’m captivated by my sense of adventure. I’m a regular Marco Polo who doesn’t mind sniffing out things like the big resident dog. Why not? Investigating the dog usually ends up in a fun game of hide-and-seek with my jumping out and ambushing him.

If my favorite activity is to explore around the house, my least favorite thing is to be stuck in the crate with my sister Myla. That’s because she gets mad at me and starts hissing when I try to snuggle with her. Have you ever seen a kitten hiss? It’s kind of cute but annoying. Heck! She seems to object that I drape myself on her head.

My momma and my 9-week-old #quadruple-fun litter were found outside by a nice couple, who brought us all to HOPE to find us forever homes. I’m delighted that my future foster meowmy agreed to bring us home, where we encountered three teenagers as well as the resident cats and big dogs. No problem! We all integrated beautifully into the dynamics of our foster family.

If you’re looking for a big, handsome “pound of fluff,” pick me! Arrange to meet me today! I promise to leave paw prints all over your heart!

Little Bobbie #bestie-of-Tango

You are here:
RESCUED AS TINY ORPHAN, COVERED IN LEAVES & STICKS

 

DOB 4/7/22

Hello everyone! I’m Little Bobbie, and I’m an adorable, petite dilute gray tabby kitten with white mittens and locket. Don’t you love my sweet, angelic face?

I was a two-week-old orphan, covered in leaves and sticks, when I was rescued from a field. Neighbors had witnessed dogs chasing away my mother; alas, she never re-appeared. Several cat lovers took me inside and bottle-fed me along with several other bottle-babies, Butch, Sundance, and Violet, who are my same age.

I have so much fun playing with my surrogate siblings. We tumble and pounce, climb and wrestle with each other, and when we’re exhausted from all the fun, we collapse in a kitten puddle. I’d love to be adopted with my fostermate Tango. That way we can play all day while you work or go on vacation.

I get along great with the 3 resident adult cats and 2 big dogs in my foster home, so there are a lot of households where I would fit like a glove. Arrange to meet me today!

Loki #low-key-lovebug

You are here:
DEFINITELY LOW-KEY

 

DOB 4/1/22

Mew! Mew, everyone! I'm Loki, a sweet, gentle, easy-going dilute torbie gal with white tuxedo markings who loves it when Foster Meowmy scratches my ears, cheeks, and chin as well as when she brushes me softly. Torbie means that I'm a pale brown tabby with random patches of buff tabby. The effect is quite striking as it looks like I've gotten sprinkled with caramel in a candy factory! 

I got my name Loki because I'm LOW-KEY! I'd fit best in a quiet, calm home with equally low-key kitties and without noisy children or barking dogs. If there's too much noise or commotion going on around me, I cautiously retreat to a safe spot. I allow Foster Meowmy to pick me up and hold me, but, like most kitties, frankly I feel safer on the ground. 

During a major storm, I was rescued with my litter of five kittens from an apartment complex. We were all grateful to be safe inside our foster home where we could kiss the hardscrabble life good-bye. I realized right away that Foster Meowmy was an angel, and it took me only two weeks to allow her 23-pound resident poodle around me and my babies. 

Now that my babies are weaned and I'm fixed so I'll never get pregnant again, I'm ready to find my furever home. Could that be with you? Arrange to meet me! Foster Meowmy testifies that I'm as beautiful on the inside as I am on the outside!

Lollis #loves-her-freedom

You are here:
FOUND AS A JOBSITE STRAY KITTEN

 

DOB 8/26/22

Mew! Mew, everyone! I’m Lollis, a delightful torbie gal who has quite a heartwarming rescue story. (“Torbie” means that I’m a brown tabby with patches of peach that makes me look like I was splashed with caramel in a candy factory.) I was a stray orphan kitten fending for myself when future foster meowmy spotted me at her jobsite. It didn’t take me long to decide that she was meant to be my savior. I ran to her, and she scooped me up. I cuddled in her lap to make the unforgettable journey to my foster home, and we’ve been bonded ever since.

Once in my foster home, I was overjoyed to kiss the hardscrabble life good-bye! Boy howdy! Brimming food and water bowls, climate control, and safety from predators all spelled security and happiness to me. I get along great with the other cats and resident dogs. I have a playful and independent spirit, which makes me a perfect companion for kids. Although I usually maintain my freedom, there are those rare, cherished moments when I need a little snuggle and will seek cuddles from my hoomans.

Yes, I chose Foster Meowmy, and now it’s time for you to choose me to be your next feline companion. I want to become an integral part of your life and make every day an adventure worth sharing. Arrange to meet me today, and let’s form a bond that's unbreakable!

LOVING WALLFLOWER

 

DOB 4/9/21

Have you met Mama Lu, aka Miss Lu, aka LuluLove? She's somewhat independent and prefers to stay out of your way, but doesn't mind the ocasional demonstration of love.  She allows you to pet her, kiss her and hold her for a few minutes at the time. But once she's had enough you'll know.

Lu likes to play with her foster siblings but not for long periods of time. This independent spirit would do well in a quiet home and even one where people are gone for hours at a time. She is 100% capable of entertaining herself.  This sweet tortie is waiting to meet you.

Melanie #daughter-of-Stella

You are here:
TURNS ON PURR MOTOR WHEN PETTED

 

DOB 6/23/23

Hi there, everyone! I’m Melanie, a very sweet, curious, and playful tortoiseshell gal who’s mostly dark with a swath of orange that splits my face in two.I have long legs and move like a panther. My momma Stella and I were rescued from Foster Meowmy’s driveway when I was about 3 months old. I was pretty skittish when I first arrived, but my foster family has nurtured my trust by offering me Temptation treats from their hands. I’m progressing on the socialization curve and turn on my purr motor when I’m petted. Frankly, I’m very interested in being with people as well as the resident dogs and other cats.

I’m a playful gal who loves to play soccer with balls and to lunge at wand toys which Foster Meowmy waves over my head. I can get into trouble because I like to explore. When I’m all tuckered out from my kitten antics, I like to catch a nap at the top of the cat tree.

I’m ready to find my forever home, and I’d welcome having friendly dogs or cats to keep me company while you’re at work or on vacation. You might even consider adopting me with my momma Stella. Most of all I’d like my hoomans to be lavish in petting me and dispensing Temptation treats! Arrange to meet me today!

Mia #mamma-of-Delta

You are here:
EASY-GOING AND PLAYFUL BED BUDDY

 

DOB 4/15/22

Mew! Mew, everyone! I’m Mia, a gentle, friendly, easy-going, playful patched tabby with white tuxedo markings who loves to spend time in my foster meowmy’s lap or bed. Don't you love my prominent peach-colored blaze on my nose and forehead?

I was a friendly, abandoned young stray who was living paw-to-mouth in an apartment complex. One day I brought my three 3-week-old kittens to the lady who had been feeding me. One thing led to another, and I eventually arrived in my HOPE foster home, where I proved to be a loving and protective teenage momma.

Now that my kits are weaned and I’m “fixed,” I’m ready for my forever home. I’d do great in a home with other cats or dogs but probably not young children. I’m young and playful yet past the kitten craziness, so I’d be much less likely to cause chaos in your home or break your prized possessions. Arrange to meet me today! And you might even consider adopting me with my son Delta.

Mickey #bonded-to-Minnie-Mouse

You are here:
LOVES TO BE CRADLED IN ARMS LIKE A BABY

 

DOB 11/8/22

Meow! Meow, everyone! I’m Mickey (Mouse), and I’m a sweet, friendly, playful brown tabby fella with white tuxedo markings who’s very bonded to my identical-twin sister Minnie. I love it when Foster Meowmy picks me up and holds me like a baby. I just look up adoringly as she rubs my tummy at the same time. Boy howdy! It’s like I’m in heaven. My other favorite thing about Foster Meowmy is that she gives me yummy Churus squeezable treats.

But I’m no couch potato! No sirree! I love to zoom through the kitty-tunnel and to chase Da Bird wand toy mercilessly about the whole room. I also enjoy tumbling and pouncing, climbing and wrestling with the other kitties in my foster home.

But Minnie is by far my “bestie.” You see, we were abandoned together in southwest Houston and fortunately rescued when we were eleven months old. The trauma of surviving the hardscrabble life as strays has made us especially close. In fact, I anxiously cry when Minnie’s out of my sight because I’ve always been her protective big brother. People have a hard time telling us apart except I’m larger and have a broader face, which you’d expect since I’m a macho boy!

Although we’re happily situated in our foster home, we realize that it’d be best for us to find our forever home with fewer other cats to share our hooman’s attention. Although we could be adopted separately, it would be perfect in our book if we could stay together since we’re “attached at the hip.” Consider adopting the pair of us so we can keep each other company while you’re at work or on vacation.

BOTH LOVE CHURUS SQUEEZABLE TREATS

 

DOB 11/8/22 

Meow! Meow, everyone! We’re Mickey and Minnie (Mouse), bonded identical twins who are sweet, friendly, playful brown tabbies with white tuxedo markings. People have a hard time telling us apart except I (Mickey) am larger and have a broader face, which you’d expect since I’m a macho boy! We both like to cuddle with Foster Meowmy when she offers us yummy Churus squeezable treats on her finger.

I (Mickey) love it when Foster Meowmy picks me up and holds me like a baby. I just look up adoringly as she rubs my tummy at the same time. Boy howdy! It’s like I’m in heaven. But I’m no couch potato! No sirree! I love to zoom through the kitty-tunnel and to chase Da Bird wand toy mercilessly about the whole room.

We both enjoy tumbling and pouncing, climbing and wrestling with the other kitties in our foster home. But we are by far best forever friends with each other. You see, we were abandoned together in southwest Houston and fortunately rescued when we were eleven months old. The trauma of surviving the hardscrabble life as strays has made us especially close. In fact, I (Mickey) anxiously cry when Minnie is out of sight because I’ve always been her protective big brother.

Hey there, everyone! I’m Mikey, a sweet, friendly, curious, playful, and entertaining “bicolor,” which means that I'm mostly white with grey tabby on my head, back, and tail. I got my name from a 1972 Quaker Oaks “Mikey Likes It” commercial of a toddler who would “eat anything.” That’s me, and I’m not ashamed at all! There are cats starving in China, so no food should be tossed out!

You see, my family moved out of their apartment and left me behind to fend for myself outside. I’m a happy-go-lucky kind of guy, so I made the best of my situation. I enjoyed climbing trees, chasing squirrels, and following folks when they walked their dogs. I assumed that an open apartment door was an invitation for me to mosey on in, and everyone adored me. Only problem was, nobody wanted to adopt a stray cat, which is what I really wanted. So “I ate anything” until my future foster meowmy decided that she wanted to foster me until she could find me my forever home with a family who’d never abandon me again.

Here I am in my foster home, happy as a lark with the other kitties. I love to cuddle beside Foster Meowmy as we binge on Netflix and Animal Planet, and when she heads for bed, I curl up at her feet. And boy howdy! I love to entertain my hoomans when we interactively play with feather wand-toys and laser pointers as well as when I play soccer with my crinkle balls and catnip mice. I’d be a great kids’ playmate as long as they knew that I don’t like to be picked up.

Arrange to meet me today! Incidentally, there are advantages to adopting a kitty like me who’s past the stage of kitten mayhem. I’m much less likely to cause chaos in your home or break any of your treasured accessories.

Mimi Lou #sweetie-pie

You are here:
PURRING LAP-KITTY

 

DOB 12/30/22

Mew! Mew, everyone! I’m Mimi Lou, a friendly, loving, and affectionate brown tabby gal. I may be wearing “plain brown clothes” on the outside, but I’m distinguished on the inside by the nobility of my heart -- I recently heard Foster Meowmy tell someone that I’m THE sweetest rescue whom she’s ever had. By the way, she’s rescued LOTS of kitties! I love to cuddle in her lap, and that’s when I turn on my purr machine to show my contentment. My coat is very soft, and my ears are tufted like a bobcat’s, but I don’t have a stubby tail

I turned up as a stray in Foster Meowmy’s neighborhood. When my caretaker went into the hospital, Foster Meowmy stepped up to bring me inside and get me fully vetted. I must’ve been someone’s young, misplaced pet because I immediately adjusted to indoor life and started spending quality time on Foster Meowmy’s lap. I’ve re-discovered a kitten’s joy of playing soccer with my toys as well as lunging and pouncing at the wand toy when Foster Meowmy waves it over my head.

I don’t respond when Foster Meowmy’s resident cats hiss at me. Although I'm fine with other cats, if the kitties in my forever home aren’t friendly with me, it’d be okay with me to be an only cat-child. I’d never protest to getting 100% of my hooman’s love and attention! I can always entertain myself with my toys and by watching the wildlife outside my window.

Arrange to meet me today! I’m all ready to climb up in your lap, turn on my purr motor, and let you guess its decibels! My heart has so much love to give – all I need is YOU!

Mimosa #marble-swirls

You are here:
PRETTY AS A MIMOSA BLOSSOM

 

DOB 5/16/23

If you like the “high” you get from a Sunday-brunch mimosa, I’m the kitty for you! Mew! Mew, everyone! I’m Mimosa, and I got my name because I’m such a sweet, amazing, friendly, and affectionate “feel-good” Classic-tabby bicolor kitten. "Classic tabby" means that I have marble swirls on my sides instead of the usual mackerel stripes. "Bicolor" means that I’m mostly white with brown tabby on my head, back, and tail. I also was named Mimosa because I'm as pretty as the tree's cotton-candy-like blooms. I'm really a stunning sight for sore eyes, if I do say so myself!

I love attention, and I’m one of the few kitties who actually likes to be picked up by Foster Meowmy. At bedtime, I love scampering under the covers and then settling down to snuggle next to Foster Meowmy for the rest of the night.

I was crying for food when Foster Meowmy opened her front door one morning. She has a reputation for being a tenderhearted “cat lady,” so most likely I was dumped by a neighbor who had found me. Of course she brought me inside, where I fit in seamlessly with her other cats and small dogs.

The adult cats have ended up being my surrogate mommas who’ve taught me everything that my momma would’ve taught me if she were here. I also enjoy tumbling and pouncing, climbing and wrestling with the older foster kittens. I’m very nimble at scurrying after the red-laser dot when Foster Meowmy bounces it around the room.

Now I’m ready for my forever home, which can have other friendly pets. Arrange to meet me today! If you take me home, next Sunday brunch you can have a Mimosa on me to celebrate!

Minnie #bonded-to-Mickey-Mouse

You are here:
LOVES CHURUS SQUEEZABLE TREATS

 

DOB 11/8/22

Meow! Meow, everyone! I’m Minnie (Mouse), and I’m a sweet, friendly, playful brown tabby gal with white tuxedo markings who’s very bonded to my identical-twin brother Mickey. I’m a cuddly girl who loves the yummy Churus squeezable treats which Foster Meowmy offers me on her finger.

I enjoy tumbling and pouncing, climbing and wrestling with the other kitties in my foster home. But Mickey is by far my “bestie.” You see, we were abandoned together in southwest Houston and fortunately rescued when we were eleven months old. The trauma of surviving the hardscrabble life as strays has made us especially close. In fact, Mickey anxiously cries when I’m out of sight because he’s always been my protective big brother.

Although we’re happily situated in our foster home, we realize that it’d be best for us to find our forever home with fewer other cats to share our hooman’s attention. Although we could be adopted separately, it would be perfect in our book if we could stay together since we’re “attached at the hip.” Consider adopting the pair of us so we can keep each other company while you’re at work or on vacation.

Missy Longstocking #docile-lapcat

You are here:
THE MARVELOUS MISS STOCKING

 

DOB 4/15/22

Meow! Meow, everyone! I’m very, very sweet, friendly, and curious Missy Longstocking, a sleek, elegant harlequin gal with big jade-globe eyes and who’s mostly white with large patches of dark gray. Foster Meowmy named me “Longstocking” because I’m tall with graceful legs that look to be wearing gray stockings. Meowmy is amazed that I don’t have one ounce of “catitiude,” and I heard her exclaiming that I’m the most docile cat she’s ever met.

Although I’m not a big fan of being picked up, I happily curl up in Foster Meowmy’s lap and turn on my purr motor, which sounds like a perking coffeepot. We then enjoy prime-time together as she gently brushes me or offers me squeezable treats. But I’m no couch potato! No siree! I adore interactive play as Foster Meowmy waves the fishing-wand toy over my head because I can show off my acrobatic prowess as I lunge and pounce on my “prey.”

I have quite a dangerous backstory. A Good Samaritan was driving down Beltway 8 when she spotted me, partially inside a bag, as I huddled in the median. Thank heavens that she’s not scared of much, so she pulled over and quickly grabbed me as cars whizzed by. When we got home, she saw that I was a little bruised, nicked, and scraped as well as very traumatized but overall healthy and uninjured.

I tolerate the other cats in my foster home, but I definitely don’t love them. I haven’t been around kids, but I was fine around a small, polite dog. Since I’m friendly and well-adjusted, I might be very compatible with well-behaved children and cat-friendly dogs.

If you’re searching for a beautifully marked lady-long-legs who looks like a thoroughbred racehorse, I’m your gal! Arrange to meet me so we can exchange warm cuddles and you can guess the decibels on my purr motor. Incidentally, there are advantages to adopting a young kitty like me who's past the mayhem of kitten craziness. I'll cause less chaos in your home and not be as likely to break your treasured accessories.

Mittens #polydactyl-cutie-pie

You are here:
I CAN BE YOUR VERY OWN BABY DOLL!

 

DOB 3/22/22

Hey there, everyone! I’m Mittens, a sweet, gentle, very submissive dilute-calico gal who’s friendly and sociable with hoomans of all ages. I'm a "bicolor," which means that I'm mostly white with blue and cream patches on my head, back, and tail. I’m what’s called a “polydactyl” because I have more toes on my front paws than most kitties. I’m very petite, and although I’m full grown, I’m the size of a seven-month old kitten.

My future foster meowmy was on a TNR mission when she found me, friendly but pregnant and living paw-to-mouth in a feral-cat colony at a very low-income immigrant apartment complex in southwest Houston. Thank heavens Foster Meowmy scooped me up and brought me home with her to foster me. I’m adjusting well to my safe, secure indoor life with brimming food and water bowls, climate control, and toys to play with.

However, trying to survive at that feeding station had been a very bad experience because I’d had to fight for food amongst the intact toms. So I’m understandably fearful of other cats and need to be an only-cat child in my forever home. If you’re looking for a baby-doll kitty who’ll always be the size of a kitten, I’m the polydactyl girl for you! Arrange to meet me today! I promise to leave paw prints all over your heart – not just because I’m eye candy but also because I’m so affectionate and loving.

Mixie #sister-of-Moji

You are here:
SUGAR AND SPICE

 

DOB 9/1/23

Hey there, everyone! I’m Mixie, a sweet yet mischievous "bicolor” gal, which means that I’m mostly white with grey tabby on my head, back, and tail. I’m a pleasant mixture of affectionate and playful. I absolutely love it when Foster Meowmy scratches my ears, cheeks, and chin – but, then again, it’s also lots of fun to play interactively with her while she darts the laser pointer around the room. And boy howdy, can I jump when she waves the feather wand toy over my head! I can’t decide who to be – lover girl or playgirl -- so I’m Mixie.

The offspring of a feral momma, my litter of five was rescued from the mean streets of Houston by some Good Samaritans. I’m proud to say that I was the “leader of the pack” of three sisters and one brother. Hey, I’m all for Girl Power!  I like my foster home with all the indoor amenities like brimming food and water bowls, safety from predators, and climate control. The resident cats are fun to play with, and the big gentle Golden Retriever is a good nanny.

Now I’m ready to find my forever home, so I can’t wait to meet you! In case you’re looking for a pair of beauties, it’d be the cat’s meow if you’d adopt both me with my favorite sister Moji. That way we can keep each other company while you’re at work or on vacation. You’ll be a lucky family to have a sweetheart friend like me to pet and play with. Just give me a chance to relax and adjust to my new “digs.”

Moji #sister-of-Mixie

You are here:
HAPPY FACES ON BOTH HER WRISTS

 

DOB 9/1/23

Hey there, everyone! I’m Moji, a sweet yet very playful pastel brown tabby gal with big round eyes set in my angelic face. My name is short for Emoji because I have very distinctive Happy Faces on both of my wrists. I clearly favor my Foster Daddy, and I absolutely love it when he scratches my ears, cheeks, and chin. Even though I’m the smallest of my litter and low to the ground, boy howdy, can I jump high when Foster Daddy waves the feather wand toy over my head!  

The offspring of a feral momma, my litter of five was rescued from the mean streets of Houston by some Good Samaritans. I adore my foster home with all the indoor amenities like brimming food and water bowls, safety from predators, and climate control. The resident cats are fun to play with, and the big gentle Golden Retriever is a good nanny.

Mothra #monster-duo-kitty

You are here:
SWEET TALKER

 

DOB 8/24/19

Well hello everyone! I’m Mothra, a smart, gregarious, curious brown tabby "princess" with white tuxedo markings. I was named after a giant flying moth that was a popular "heroic" monster in horror films. I absolutely LOVE people and the cuddles that we share. I’m a “talker” who chirps and trills for everyone when I greet them, and then I plop down to receive a good belly rub.

I get along great with the other gentle cats in my foster home as well as a service dog who drops by occasionally. I’m accustomed to the calm and quiet of my foster home, so I’d probably do best in a home without chaos and without kids.

My siblings Godzilla and Woobee were found with me as orphan kittens during Tropical Storm Imelda. Although I'm available separately, i would be the cat’s meow if I could be adopted with one of my siblings so we could keep each other company while you’re at work or on vacation.

If you’re looking for a beautiful, chatty princess who’s past the mayhem of kittenhood, I’m your girl! Arrange to meet me today! I promise to leave tiny paw prints all over your heart.

Noto #brother-of-Axl-Rose

You are here:
LOVES TO BUNNY-KICK HIS CATNIP TOY

 

DOB 4/15/23

Meow! Meow, everyone! I’m Noto, a sweet, shy, and undemanding black DSH/Bombay mix fella who has a sleek, shiny coat and is distinguished from my twin black brothers by my square jaw. Foster Meowmy chose my name because it means “known” in Japanese: she “knows” that I’m there, but I maintain a silent presence and don’t clamor for attention. I’m somewhat of an aloof loner who likes to sleep under the bed or in the smallest box that I can find -- except when I snuggle with my twin brother Axl Rose, with whom I’m especially bonded.

My favorite toy is one that I can embrace with my front paws and kick with my back legs. Boy howdy! It's quite something to see as I diligently work on punching it to kingdom come! Although I get along with the resident cats, Foster Meowmy thinks I’d do best in a quiet home without noisy small children or barking dogs.

I was born to a feral momma whom Foster Meowmy eventually trapped, spayed, and returned to her neighborhood. When we were ready to be weaned, Foster Meowmy snapped up my #dark-n-shady-six litter and brought us inside to safety and to socialize us for our future fantastic homes. Arrange to meet me today, and consider adopting me with my twin brother Axl Rose. That way we can keep each other company while you’re at work or on vacation.

Oreo & Hershey #bonded-sibs

You are here:
VERY SPECIAL PAIR

 

DOB 10/11/23

These two lovely kitties would be thrilled to find a home together. What's better than a barrel of monkeys? A house full of kitties. These well-behaved kittens do have a lot of energy, but are generally very gentle and non-destructive. Oreo, the female, is more affectionate than her brother, Hershey, since he has a one-track mind when he starts playing with his toys. We believe Hershey may be somewhat special-needs as he was developmentally slower than his sister. Both know how to use the litterbox though and will delight you with their charming ways.

Otto #tuxedo-tabby

You are here:
SWEET BUT SHY

 

DOB 8/21/20

Meow! Meow, everyone! My name is Otto, and I’m a sweet though shy brown tabby fella with white tuxedo markings. Don’t you love my white locket and four white mittens? I’m very sweet with my foster meowmy as well as the other cats in my foster home. I love and trust my foster meowmy when she pets and holds me. I even allow her to clip my claws.

When I was about a month old, my foster meowmy found my three siblings and me in an old abandoned car. After she got us all vetted and vaccinated, I was supposed to be adopted with my sister Zelda. When I arrived at my new home, I was my typical shy self because I was scared, so I found a hidey hole. Unfortunately the family didn’t give me the chance to settle in and warm up to my new surroundings, so I immediately went back to my foster meowmy.

I’m looking for forever adopters who will be patient with me as I warm up and feel comfy in my new “digs.” Ideally they will want to adopt me with one of my foster playmates like Squeeken whom I know well. Nothing like the moral support of a buddy to build my confidence in new situations!

Arrange to meet me today! There are advantages in adopting a cat who's past the stage of kitten mayhem. I'd be much less likely to cause chaos in your home or break your treasured accessories.

Peppa #loves-to-be-held

You are here:
WONDERFUL LAP KITTY AND BED BUDDY

 

DOB 7/16/22

Mew! Mew, everyone! I’m Peppa, a sweet, loving, easy-going tuxedo gal who has an adorable black button nose. Foster Meowmy testifies that I am a wonderful lap kitty and bed buddy. When I want Meowmy to pick me up, I gently tap my paw on her leg as if to say, “Here I am! Take me into your arms and love me.”

Foster Meowmy found me as a 6-week-old orphan on the premises of a security company in northwest Houston and brought me home. I get along great with the other resident kitties as well as the cat-friendly dogs here. I’m a playful gal who loves to chase the red laser dot that Foster Meowmy bounces around the room.

However, scurrying after the frisky red dot has not always been a piece of cake for me. Out of the clear blue sky, I was challenged with mobility issues starting about a week after my spay surgery. Foster Meowmy was horrified to see me suddenly not be able to support the weight in my back legs, although that didn’t stop me from "walking on my elbows" the best I could, which was nevertheless at quite a fast clip. “My goodness,” heartbroken Foster Meowmy thought, “Peppa is just a 5-month-old kitten!”

For three months, Foster Meowmy did her due diligence and took me to several vets, but it wasn’t until she finally took me to a pain-management vet specialist in The Woodlands that she found someone who could treat me successfully and non-surgically. He diagnosed inflammation in both of my rear elbow joints from either a congenital or traumatic injury.

God bless him because he relieved my pain and inflammation with cortisone and joint lubricant injections in both my back legs and started me on a regimen of monthly Adequan injections. It wasn’t long before – voila - I was playing and running around as if nothing had ever been wrong! What a miracle, thanks to HOPE’s Emergency Medical fund, collected from sales of the annual HOPE cat calendar!

The good news is that with long-term arthritic management, I should be able to live a basically normal life. My only ongoing treatment is for Foster Meowmy to give me monthly Adequan injections. So, although I’m considered a “special-needs” kitty, my chronic mobility problems have responded splendidly to injections and are easily controlled. Aren’t you happy that I need no daily PILLS???

I hope that my technically being a special-needs kitty has not quashed your interest in having me plop myself in your lap or snuggle next to you in bed. I’d do fine as either a solo kitty or companion to your resident dog or cat. Also consider adopting me with one of my feline playmates with whom I’m already bonded. Two is better than one, and we can keep each other company while you’re at work or on vacation.

Perseus #expert-snuggler

You are here:
MAINE COON WANNABE

 

DOB 6/24/23

Perseus may have exaggerated a little when filling out his online bio. He was just trying to get more people to swipe right. His brother Achilles was getting all the inquiries, and he was feeling a little left out.

This sad guy is not the most outgoing or the fluffiest, but he has a heart of gold and a fragile ego. Perseus is a first rate snuggler, and he comes alive when BirdTV is turned on. Are you willing to give this underdog a chance?

Pretzel #snack-pack

You are here:
LOVES TO BE PHOTOGRAPHED

 

DOB 3/28/23

Do you like very photogenic kitties who ham it up in front of the camera? Do you need a willing subject for your skillful photography? If so, then I’m the lass for you! Mew! Mew, everyone! I’m Pretzel, a very sweet, active, and fun-loving bicolor gal. “Bicolor” means that I’m mostly white with black on my head, tail, and back. I’m a very friendly, easy-going, and playful kitty-girl who just loves people, so being held by Foster Meowmy is one of my favorite parts of the day

I enjoy playing and hanging out on the cat tree with both my littermates and the other foster kittens. I can also entertain myself by playing soccer with balls with bells and chasing catnip mice.

My litter of four, Peanut, Popcorn, Snickers, and myself, a.k.a. the “#snack-pack,” was born in a nice lady’s back yard. She rescued us but turned to HOPE to find us fantastic forever homes. I have a blast tumbling and pouncing, climbing and wrestling with my siblings, and when we’re thoroughly exhausted, we collapse in a kitten puddle.

Now I’m ready to meet my forever family, and I’d be miserable if I didn’t hang out with another kitty in my new “digs.” It’d be the cat’s meow if you’d consider adopting me with one of the #snack-pack so we could keep each other company while you’re at work or on vacation. Arrange to meet me today!

Princess #seeks-attention

You are here:
REGAL EYE-CANDY

 

DOB 8/25/22

Meow! Meow, everyone! I’m Princess, and I’m a sweet, shy, calm, and loving lynx-point Snowshoe/Siamese mix gal with gorgeous pale blue eyes that’ll melt your heart. I’m pretty stunning “eye candy,” if I do say so myself. I enjoy purring and being petted while I snuggle in Foster Meowmy’s lap.

Frankly, I could relax more with my hoomans – maybe even sleep with them -- if I didn’t get so distracted by the resident pets in my foster home. The male of the two cats is a real pest, and all the silly dog wants to do is play with me. So when Foster Meowmy is busy or not around, I entertain myself by playing alone with my toys.

I was a teenage momma who was living paw-to-mouth with my son Myles when future Foster Meowmy noticed us in her apartment complex. When she found out that he was in my second litter and that his siblings had died, she said, “Enough is enough!” Myles and I were so grateful that she brought us inside out of the rain and cold and that we could kiss the hardscrabble outdoor life goodbye.

Now I’m fixed so I’ll never be in the predicament of an unwanted teenage pregnancy again. So I’m ready for my forever home, and I hope it’s just as calm and quiet as I am. A family with well-behaved children who dote on me or empty-nesters who spend lots of time at home would be perfect because I’d love to be lavished with the hooman attention I crave.

Princess Leia #easygoing-girl

You are here:
TALK TO ME! TALK TO ME, BABY!

 

DOB 6/6/22

Mew! Mew, everyone! I’m Princess Leia, and I’m a sweet, easy-going, laid-back bicolor patched-tabby gal, which means that I’m mostly white with brown tabby on my head, back, and tail, and there are random red patches that decorate the tabby portions. I have gorgeous, trusting big green eyes and a cute splash of brown on my nose that drips onto my left cheek. Don’t let my grumpy face fool you – Foster Meowmy says that I’m actually a huge sweetheart. Boy, howdy! I love it when Foster Meowmy talks sweetly to me and scratches my neck.

I was rescued with my litter of four kittens when they were two weeks old. I know, I know – I look like a baby myself, but I am already a retired mother. I’m especially bonded to my son Poe, who looks a lot like me. Now I’m “fixed” so I’ll never have to worry again about being a teenager who’s trapped in an unwanted pregnancy.

So now I’m searching for my forever home. I’m hoping it will be a quiet one without barking dogs and noisy kids. My heart has so much love to give – all I need is YOU!

Spotty #spring-shower-litter

You are here:
BEAM ME UP, SPOTTY!

 

DOB 5/4/23

Hi there! I’m Spotty, a curious, cute, and crafty tortoiseshell “ninja” with a striking orange nose-blaze whose name was inspired by the Star Trek catchphrase “Beam me up, Spotty.” I’m not as shy as I was initially, and I’ve come to just love cuddling with Foster Meowmy. I’m like the Chatty Cathy doll because I have no trouble chirping and trilling for everyone.

Foster Meowmy found Momma, my sisters Minnie, Juniper, and Angel, and me in her yard one stormy May day. Thank heavens she brought us inside and promised to find us fantastic forever homes through HOPE. My foster home is calm and quiet without dogs or kids, but I have quite a rambunctious streak in me, so I’m open to a home with kids. I fit in well with the friendly resident kitties.

Now I’m ready to find the forever home that I was promised, and if you’re looking for a shy but chatty ninja, I’m your girl! Arrange to meet me today! I promise to leave tiny paw prints all over your heart. Please consider adopting me with one of my sisters in the #spring-shower-litter so we can keep each other company while you’re at work or on vacation.

Squirt #brother-of-Bowser

You are here:
LIKES TO DROWN HIS TOY MICE

 

DOB 9/15/23

Hey there, everyone! I’m Squirt, and I’m a sweet, playful taupe tabby who loves my twin brother Bowser so much that we are inseparable. I play fetch with my tiny fuzzy balls and soccer with my catnip mice. Then I carry my mouse around in my mouth and just may drop it into my water bowl just to make a little mischief.

My future foster meowmy had been feeding my feral momma, who outwitted Meowmy when she tried to trap Momma. Eventually Momma brought Bowser and me to Foster Meowmy when we were six weeks old. We allowed ourselves to be caught and adjusted well to the indoor life. We even made friends with the resident chi-pin puppy, who ends up being a great playmate.

Now I’m ready to find my forever home, so I hope you’ll arrange to meet me. Consider adopting me with Bowser since we are so bonded to each other. That way we could keep each other company while you’re at work or on vacation. I promise to leave tiny paw prints all over your heart.

Stella #momma-of-Melanie

You are here:
MORE TO HUG

 

DOB 8/30/22

Hi there, everyone! I’m Stella, a very sweet, quiet, easy-going, beautiful “bicolor” gal, which means that I’m mostly white with gray tabby on my head, back, and tail. My kitten Melanie and I were rescued from Foster Meowmy’s driveway when I was about one year old. I was pretty skittish when I first arrived, but my foster family has nurtured my trust because I’m very food motivated. I’m progressing on the socialization curve and becoming more and more affectionate because I love to be petted. Frankly, I’m very interested in being with people as well as the resident dogs.

I’m a mellow gal who loves to relax. My favorite place is hanging out in the family rocking chair. Since I was a stray who was living paw-to-mouth, I’d never had toys to play with. I’m quickly learning to have fun playing soccer with balls and catnip mice. I guess you’d say that I’m a “couch potato no more!”

I’m ready to find my forever home, and I’d welcome having friendly dogs or cats to be my fur buddies.  You might even consider adopting me with my daughter Melanie so we could keep each other company while you're at work or on vacation. Most of all I’d like my hoomans to be lavish in petting me and dispensing Temptation treats!

Arrange to meet me today! Incidentally, there are advantages to adopting a gal like me who's beyond the stage of kitten frenzy. I'm much less likely to cause chaos in your home or break your favorite accessories.

Sweetie Pie #purrs-sweet-nothings

You are here:
ENAMORS ALL HOOMANS

 

DOB 2/24/15

Hey there, everyone! My name is Sweetie Pie, and you can imagine how I got my moniker: I’m a sweet, quiet, loving “torbie” gal with big green eyes. “Torbie” means that I’m a brown tabby with random patches of orange that look like I’ve gotten sprinkled with caramel in a candy factory.

My favorite spot is on Foster Meowmy’s lap because I thrive on head and chin scratches. That’s when I turn on my purr motor or give her Eskimo kisses to show my delight. I don’t even mind being held, and when I was at the vet recently getting my dental, I hugged one of the vet techs and purred sweet nothings in her ear when she snuggled me to her chest.

In my pensive moments, I like to hang out in my kitty cubbyhole with my plush toy and look out the window as the world walks, scampers, or flies by. I’m fine alone while Foster Meowmy’s at work as long as she greets me by gently touching my head before my meals. Believe it or not, my favorite treat is malt-flavored kitty toothpaste!

I had been an outdoor stray who hung out on three porches at Foster Meowmy’s apartment complex for a few years. Two neutered male kitties protected me from other unfriendly cats at the community feeding station. The neighbors called me “Scaredy Cat” because I ran away when anyone got too close. Everyone assumed that I was an unsocialized feral cat, but when a HOPE volunteer trapped me, the vet discovered that I was already spayed; so my ear was notched, and I was released back outside.

But then I had a blessing in disguise: I injured my leg around Thanksgiving. So Foster Meowmy brought me inside to recover (now 100%) and ended up keeping me inside because of the freezing winter weather. Well, I made a miraculous transformation once I was inside and proved that I had probably been someone’s pet in the past who unfortunately was abandoned or had gotten lost. It took being safely inside again for my sweet disposition to shine and to enamor all my hoomans, including the vet staff!

I’m ready to find my forever home now! Foster Meowmy thinks I’d be perfect for anyone who’s looking for a quiet lap-companion to binge on Animal Planet or Netflix with them. This could be retirees, adults, or even well-behaved children, although I’m scared of dogs and wild, unfriendly cats. Arrange to meet me! Incidentally, there are advantages to adopting a mature kitty who’s past the mayhem of kittenhood. I’m much less likely to cause chaos in your home or break any of your treasured accessories.

T'Challa #black-panther-prince

You are here:
LIKES TO SNUGGLE RIGHT NEXT TO YOU

 

DOB 10/1/22

Are you a fan of T’Challa, the fictional African prince who's called Black Panther in Marvel comics? Then you'll understand why Foster Meowmy gave me such an unusual moniker – I’m a sleek, strong, and handsome mini-black panther who looks to be a Bombay mix fella with my shiny patent-leather coat and big globe eyes.

I’m a sweet boy who loves the Eskimo kisses Foster Meowmy showers on me when she picks me up. Although I’m not a lap cat per se, I am a Velcro cat who likes to stick close to her. I prefer to position myself right next to her when she’s lying in bed or sitting on the sofa, and I'll follow her into the bathroom if she allows me.

I’m a smart fella who, like many Bombays, is very dog-like. I've learned to "sit" as well as to give “high fives.” Plus I’m a playful athlete who loves to play fetch. I scamper off to grab whatever toy Foster Meowmy tosses for me and even sometimes bring it back!

I showed up as a stray at Foster Meowmy’s house, and when her family showed me some love and attention, I decided to hang out permanently – rain or shine -- on their front porch. So they decided that I was someone’s misplaced pet who needed to be brought inside. I adjusted easily to the indoor life and play very well with the six resident cats. Foster Meowmy is amazed that when they surround me, I’m not aggressive at all, even when the grumpy ones try to provoke me. Yes, I always act like the African prince that I am!

Although I’m contented with my foster family, I realize that it’s time for me to find a loving forever home of my very own. I hope you’ll arrange to meet me today! I have so much love to give – all I need is YOU! Incidentally, there are advantages to adopting a kitty who's past the mayhem of kittenhood. I'm much less likely to cause chaos in your home or break your treasured accessories.

Tango #bestie-of-Little-Bobbie

You are here:
"MOST WONDERFUL OF KITTENS"

 

DOB 4/7/22

Howdy everyone! I’m Tango, a loving and mellow yet funny and lively red tabby fella with a warm personality and a great sense of humor. Foster Meowmy describes me as “the most wonderful of kittens who deserves an A+ home.”

I was found as an orphan in the street next to a pile of debris in the Lindale area. I fit right into my foster home where there were several other rescued kittens who were my same age, although we‘re not related.

I have so much fun playing with my surrogate siblings. We tumble and pounce, climb and wrestle with each other, and when we’re thoroughly exhausted from all the fun, we collapse in a kitten puddle.

It would be the cat’s meow if I could be adopted with one of my foster mate Little Bobbie. I’d be happy to give you an extra kiss because we could keep each other company while you’re at work or on vacation.

I get along great with the 3 resident adult cats and 2 big dogs in my foster home, so there are a lot of households where I would fit like a glove. Arrange to meet me today! You'll fall in love with me the second you meet me. I'm all ready to settle into my A+ new home!

Thomas #3-men-in-black

You are here:
CUTE MILK MOUSTACHE

 

DOB 9/26/23 

Hey there, everyone! I’m Thomas, a big, bashful, and playful tuxedo fella with white mittens and vest as well as an adorable “milk moustache.” I’m the giant of my litter and a little chubby, but heck – I’m more to hug! I actually heard Foster Meowmy say that I’m “nice and squishy for petting.” Despite my burly physique, I love playing with wand toys and can easily jump four feet in the air to catch “da bird” on a string. Ah, what athletic prowess I can display!

My brothers Todd, William, and I were about 10 weeks old when we showed up at our future foster meowmy’s community-cat feeding station near her garage. Initially I was the shyest of the orphaned trio, but once I learned about cuddles and pets, it wasn't long before I became like a big baby in Foster Meowmy’s arms.

If you’re looking for a handsome, macho, acrobatic dude who luxuriates when I’m cuddled, I’m the guy for you! Arrange to meet me today, and consider adopting me with Todd or William so we can keep each other company while you’re at work or on vacation. Let’s write new chapters in our lives together.

Todd #3-men-in-black

You are here:
CUTE WHITE DOT ON HIS UPPER LIP

 

DOB 9/26/23 

Hey there, everyone! I’m Todd, a sweet, friendly, gentle tuxedo fella with white mittens and vest who has a tiny white beauty – errr “handsome” – mark on my right upper lip. I love attention and affection from my foster meowmy and show it by turning on my purr machine, which sounds like an outboard motor. I’m a pretty laid-back dude who’s happy to sit inside the cat tunnel and enjoy watching my brothers Thomas and William make fools of themselves playing. Don’t get me wrong, though, I’m no couch potato! I love to chase the wand toy as well as my brothers and to play soccer with my toys.

We three were about 10 weeks old when we when we showed up at our future foster meowmy’s community-cat feeding station near her garage. From the get-go I was the friendliest of the orphaned trio and convinced the other two boys to let Foster Meowmy take us inside to safety. Ah, the bliss of cuddles, pets, and Churus treats! I’m not usually very domineering, but I push to the front of the line when Foster Meowmy is squeezing out the Churus!

If you’re looking for a handsome, easygoing dude who has a wonderful purr, I’m the dude for you! I’m definitely not a type-A, take-charge personality, so Foster Meowmy thinks I’d do best in a home with another kitty. Arrange to meet me today, and if you don’t have a resident cat, consider adopting me with Thomas or William so we can keep each other company while you’re at work or on vacation. I promise to leave tiny paw prints all over your heart.

Tom Sandoval #plays-iPad-games

You are here:
SNUGGLY SIESTA KING

 

DOB 4/15/23

If you think the actor Tom Sandoval looks like a hunk dressed in black, you should see me! Meow! Meow, everyone! I’m Tom Sandoval’s namesake, an affectionate, saucy, friendly black DSH/Bombay mix kitten with a sleek, shiny coat. I can be quite the snuggly Siesta King who loves to curl up in bed with either Foster Meowmy or my sister Maddox, with whom I'm very bonded. I soak up any attention that Foster Meowmy gives me, especially when she’s dispensing Temptation treats.

I’m a playful guy who loves to play soccer with toy mice as well as engage with iPad games. And of course I love to tumble and pounce, climb and wrestle with my three sisters, Maddox, Lala, and Katie. I can also entertain myself by scaling the cat tower and playing with its dangling toys.

When my Foster Meowmy was walking on her driveway one day, she spotted my feral momma and my litter of four under the house of her next door neighbor. She trapped, spayed, and released Momma but brought us kittens inside to socialize us. We fit in beautifully with her other pets, and now that we're ready to be adopted, she promises to find us all fantastic homes.

If you’re looking for a handsome, gentle, easy-going fella who gets along with other cats and small dogs, arrange to meet me! Consider adopting me with one of my sisters so we can keep each other company while you’re at work or on vacation.

Tori #marble-swirl-girl

You are here:
I'M A REAL GEM TO BE AROUND

 

DOB 6/1/22

During the dog days of summer, “Marble Swirl” makes you think of ice cream, but I’m a #marble-swirl-girl because I have gorgeous dark marble swirls (instead of mackerel stripes) on my sides. Mew! Mew, everyone! I’m Tori, and I’m a super-sweet, vocal brown "Classic tabby" gal who loves to rub up against Foster Meowmy’s legs and invite her to pet me. Admittedly, I’m not a lap cat yet, but I will jump in Foster Meowmy’s lap so she can scratch my cheeks, chin, and ears. Boy, howdy! That feels great!

I birthed my six kittens at a country house near a dumping ground in Cleveland, where I was among many friendly but unfixed stray cats. Thank heavens that HOPE took all my family into their program to find us fantastic homes! I probably had been someone’s pet who got misplaced because I adjusted easily to being an indoor cat. I especially like all the indoor amenities, like climate control, brimming food and water bowls, and a cardboard scratch pad to nap on after I’ve sharpened my claws.

Other than a few initial warning hisses, I didn’t react negatively to Foster Meowmy’s resident cat. Now we’re comfy with each other, and I even rub my pheromones on him. However, since I’d had to guard my food when the outdoor stray cats tried to steal my food, I don’t like it when he comes near my food. Incidentally, I may be tiny, but my appetite is anything but tiny!

True confessions! I’m somewhat of a “special needs” kitty because I tested positive for heartworms. There is no treatment for cats who test positive for heartworms as there is for dogs. Instead, I’m to be given a prescription flea/heartworm preventative like Revolution monthly. Whereas HOPE recommends that all Houston cats stay on flea/heartworm preventative for their lifetimes, adult heartworms usually die within 2-3 years.

I hope you’ll arrange to meet me. Foster Meowmy testifies that I’m “a gem to be around.”  Come find out for yourself!

Trevor #great-with-dogs

You are here:
ONE CHILL DUDE

 

DOB 7/23/23

Meow! Meow, everyone! I’m Trevor, a sweet, very friendly brown tabby fella who’s always chill and laid-back. Not much ruffles me, and I’m never aggressive or agitated with the other foster kitties. A bonus is that I get along great with the resident dogs. Although I was initially shy when I met Foster Meowmy, now when she opens the door, I run up to greet her with my tail as straight as a flagpole.

My brother Ira and I were born in a garage in Katy, and when we were eight weeks old, we were brought to Foster Meowmy to get ready for adoption. She thinks I’m a handsome boy with my long legs, and she marvels that I’m slim and trim despite the fact that I’m a hearty eater.  

Now I’m ready to find my forever home. Arrange to meet me today! I promise to leave tiny paw prints all over your heart.

Tris #sister-of-Alice

You are here:
TAKES THE PRIZE FOR SWEET

 

DOB 8/7/22

Mew! Mew, everyone! I’m Tris, a friendly, confident, and playful bicolor gal who loves to spend time with my Foster Meowmy. I’m called a bi-color because I’m mostly white with gray tabby on my head, back, and tail. My foster meowmy says she's never met a group of kitties as sweet we are, and she considers ME the “star of sweet!”

I was rescued by a kind woman who found me and my sisters Lucy, Alice, and Victoria as orphaned kittens when we were so young that we needed to be bottle-fed. Once we were eating on our own, our tenderhearted future Foster Meowmy responded to the plea on the HOPE FaceBook page that we needed someone to foster us until we were adopted. She brought us to our foster home, where we enjoy tumbling and pouncing, climbing and wrestling with each other until we collapse in a kitten puddle. I’m a happy girl whose life is a repeated cycle of play-sleep-eat.

Since we were bottle-fed and familiar with being handled by hoomans, we’ve always been very friendly and sociable – even with strangers. In fact, we come out to meet visitors! Although we haven’t been around kids in our foster home, I’m sure we’d be fine with well-mannered children because we’ve been very comfortable around the Great Pyrenees dog and the other resident cats. These kitties have acted like aunts and uncles who've taught us everything that our momma would've taught us if she'd been around.

I hope you’ll arrange to meet me! I promise that you’ll find that I’m perfect! Consider adopting me with my sister Alice. Two is better than one, and we could keep each other company while you’re at work or on vacation.

Turquoise will  gently win your heart and fill it with joy. She's dying to meet you. P.S. This cutie loves playing in running water.

Urso #star-bright

You are here:
GOOD-TIME-FELLA

 

DOB 4/21/23

Meow! Meow, everyone! I'm Urso, as in the constellation Ursa Major, aka the Big Bear, because I'm so handsome that I'll leave you star-struck. I'm a super-sweet, easy-going, friendly, and affectionate bicolor fella who loves to cuddle in Foster Meowmy’s lap and give her kisses on the face. “Bicolor” means that I’m mostly white with brown tabby on my head, back, and tail.

My feral momma birthed me and my two “constellation” sisters Delphinus and Andromeda in a neighbor's junky yard. My future foster meowmy TNR'd our momma and first scooped up my sisters when they wandered into her yard. However, the neighbors wouldn’t allow Foster Meowmy to come onto their property to retrieve me, so she had to wait about a month for me to wander into her yard before she could bring me inside to join my sisters. Outside I’d been living paw-to-mouth because my momma couldn’t nurse me anymore. So I had some catching up to do on my nutrition to match my sisters’ size, but I’m gaining weight fast as I feast on the brimming food bowls.

I’m an amiable, laid-back boy who always seems to have a good time and get along with any cat. But I’m no couch potato! No siree! I'm also an energetic and super-playful fella who can entertain myself by playing soccer with my toys. I also play well in a group -- I tumble and pounce, climb and wrestle with my sisters, and when we're exhausted, we collapse in a kitten puddle.

Foster Meowmy likes it that I’m so well behaved. I respect her daily routine and understand when it’s bedtime. Heck, I love to sleep and fall asleep quickly. Who wouldn’t with my exhausting exercise regimen? Although I like it here in my foster home, I know what’s best for me is to have a forever home of my own.

William #3-men-in-black

SUPERB JUMPING SKILLS

 

DOB 9/26/23 

Hey there, everyone! I’m William, a sweet, playful black domestic short hair/Bombay mix fella with a sleek, shiny black patent-leather coat and copper-penny eyes. I love to lick Churus squeezable treats off Foster Meowmy’s fingers, and to show my delight, I turn on my purr motor, which sounds like a perking coffeepot. Even though I’m the smallest of my brothers, I don’t let that stop me from being right in the middle of the action when Foster Meowmy waves the wand toy over my head. “Da Bird” needs to be stopped, and I’m the guy to do it! I have superb jumping skills and can leap four feet straight up in the air to catch it in a death-grip.

My brothers Todd, Thomas, and I were about 10 weeks old when we showed up at our future foster meowmy’s community-cat feeding station near her garage. I love my brothers and when I’m thoroughly exhausted from playing with them or Da Bird, we’ll snuggle together for a nice cat nap.

If you’re looking for a handsome, athletic dude who can purr up a storm, I’m the guy for you! I may be small, but I’ve got a big heart and plenty of determination. I’m the feline equivalent of little Rudy Ruettiger, who landed a position on the Notre Dame football team in the 1993 movie “Rudy.” Arrange to meet me today, and consider adopting me with Todd or Thomas so we can keep each other company while you’re at work or on vacation.

Woobee #your-furry-security-blanket

You are here:
SPUNKY CUDDLEBUG

 

DOB 8/24/19

Hi everyone! I’m Woobee, a spunky, funny, entertaining Turkish Van mix gal who’s mostly white with black on my head and tail. Don’t you love my white blaze running up my nose? Because I’m such a snuggler, I was named after the child’s security blanket popularized in the movie “Mr. Mom.” 

I’m a lap cat extraordinaire. I absolutely LOVE people and the cuddles that we share. I'm full of zany antics and have a plucky attitude. I’ll bunny-kick a stuffed animal and then come sit in your lap to get praise and to snuggle.

I get along great with the other gentle cats in my foster home as well as a service dog who drops by occasionally. I’m accustomed to the calm and quiet of my foster home, so I’d probably do best in a home without chaos and without kids.

My siblings Mothra and Godzilla were found with me as orphan kittens during Tropical Storm Imelda. Although I'm available separately, it would be the cat’s meow if I could be adopted with one of my siblings so we could keep each other company while you’re at work or on vacation. If you’re looking for a real lap cat who’s the life of the party and who’s past the mayhem of kittenhood, I’m your girl! Arrange to meet me today! I promise to leave tiny paw prints all over your heart.

Zephyr #graffiti-boy

You are here:
STREET URCHIN TO PAMPERED PET

 

DOB 4/28/23

Have you ever seen a kitten whose body looks like a canvas that a graffiti artist has started splashing with tiny spots of black paint? Meow! Meow, everyone! I’m Zephyr, a sweet and playful fella who’s pure white except for my black toupee and just a few pale smudges of gray on my shoulders. I’m one of the #graffiti-boys who were all named after graffiti street-artists because our momma Clara birthed us on the mean streets of Houston. The good news is that I’m a little street urchin no longer. No siree! I’ve been babied, cuddled, and kissed ever since I was rescued and started living in my foster home, where I eat yummy culinary delights and sleep on soft down pillows! Yep, I’m truly a pauper-turned-prince!

My brothers, Banksy and Donti, and I are fascinated by everything in the bathroom. That’s because there’s all kinds of great things there -- toilet paper, paper towels, rugs, humans, toys, shampoo, water, and our favorite, the occasional roach. I can’t describe the fun of rolling ping pong balls and cat spring-toys – anything with curves – along the sides of the bathtub like it’s the perfect skateboard park.

And it’s fun to sit on the edge of the tub and play hide-and-seek behind the shower curtain. We’ve destroyed a few shower curtains by batting each other with our little claws, but Foster Meowmy thinks that’s a small price to pay for the hours of enjoyment we have playing peek-a-boo through the clear plastic.

I’m particularly bonded to Donti. We’re always up to some kind of kitten business – exploring, menacing each other, wrestling with each other. When we’re exhausted, we collapse in a kitten puddle with Banksy and may even nuzzle with our sweet momma Clara.

If you’re looking for hours of entertainment with a handsome fella’s who’s a feast to the eyes, I’m your man! Arrange to meet me today, and consider adopting me with Zephyr (and don’t forget Banksy!) so we can keep each other company while you’re at work or on vacation. Just think – you can get all your cat-needs met with our little Instacat family.
