Alder
Alder is a sweet and very intelligent young adult cat. He has quite a bit of energy and can creatively have fun with almost anything, though he prefers to play with his humans rather than alone. He also enjoys looking out the window and investigating things around the house. He’s not just a ball of energy though. He likes to cuddle and when picked up, he will lick his person’s face and nudge his head into theirs. He also often shows his curiosity by looking up at his people and tilting his head - almost like a puppy!

Winifred
Winifred has the look of a storybook heroine: big eyes, tiny face, a delicate presence… but don’t be fooled, she’s also a fierce wand-toy warrior! She plays tug-of-war with all the gusto of a terrier, and once she wins, she proudly drags the toy straight to her water bowl like a trophy.
She’s a girl who blossoms with gentle company, sometimes surprising her foster by initiating a cuddle session. And while she’ll always be remembered as an excellent mama (she raised her own kittens plus an adopted bonus baby), she’s ready to retire from motherhood and lean into being someone’s beloved companion.
Winifred is soft, playful, and full of quiet charm- the kind of cat who rewards patience with deep sweetness and delightfully quirky habits.

Hazel is a 1.5 year old chirpy Tortie looking for her forever home. She loves nothing more than running around after her humans, playing with her rabbit wand toy, or flopping on the kitchen floor and purring happily while you make dinner.
Hazel is looking for a home where she can laze away the days in her hammock, eat allll the wet food she can persuade you to give her, and make biscuits next to you on the sofa.
Hazel will need a single pet home without any other kitties harshing her vibe, thank you very much! Hazel has juvenile gingivitis and requires regular cleaning of her pearly whites to manage her condition, (which she is very brave about).

Dexter
Dexter the Cat: A Feisty and Playful Spirit
Dexter is a whirlwind of energy, always ready for action and adventure. Mischievous like a toddler, he turns every moment into playtime, whether he’s tossing his fluffy bat, pouncing on a stuffed dragon, or chasing the elusive laser light. His fearless nature means he faces life head-on, never hesitating to launch a sneak attack—or pull off a clever little heist.
Despite his playful antics, Dexter has a soft side. After a long session of self-entertainment, he loves nothing more than to curl up in a warm sweater, nestled against a familiar chest for a quick nap. With an affectionate demeanor and an independent streak, Dexter is truly his own man—a cat full of personality, charm, and endless energy.
Dexter wants to be adopted with his best friend Ike so they can continue to play (and cuddle)!

This playful girl is always on the move, zooming through hallways, bouncing off walls, and pouncing on her beloved toy mice. Hunting and chasing are her favorite pastimes, often leading to surprise attacks from beneath the blankets!

Though initially shy, once Moon Pie warms up, she becomes a talkative and affectionate companion.

If you put him somewhere (like the couch or your lap), he tends to flop and settle in like "welp, this is my life now." Being a tripod does not limit his mobility at all, either. He has no problem jumping on the bed or couch, although he is a bit clumsy doing so. Reindeer primarily wears a little sweater to protect his healing stitches, which he tolerates very well (and looks adorable in!) Reindeer is the perfect relaxed companion.

Uptown's personality is a blend of his two siblings, Lakeview and Edgewater. He's a bit more timid than the confident Edgewater, but comes out of his shell rather quickly with a bit of time. He's very playful, and loves to rope his brother into some rambunctious activities like any good kitten would. He has no issues eating, using the litterbox, or using the cat scratcher. While Uptown could go independently, he would love to go home with his brother, Edgewater, who makes him a more confident kitty.

Edgewater
It's a big-ear convention when the siblings Lakeview, Edgewater, and Uptown come together!
Edgewater is the most social of his siblings, and was friendly and playful the minute he came under the care of Paws and Claws. He loves to have his gorgeous coat brushed, or use the cat scratcher to get out his excess energy. Edgewater is an independent cat who does not necessarily have to go home with any of his siblings, but would help his brother, Uptown, thrive in any home.

Lakeview
It's a big-ear convention when the siblings Lakeview, Edgewater, and Uptown come together!
Lakeview is a sweet, timid girl who needs a bit of reassurance before she opens up. Although she tends to not approach you initially, she's secretly ALL about attention. If you gently pick her up or start petting her, she melts into you, headbutting for more pets and loving. With more time, she's sure to come out of her shell more and reveal that sweetheart personality we're sure she has. She has all the right kitten habits, with no issues eating, using the litterbox, or scratching furniture. While she has no issues with other cats and plays well with her brothers, she would do well as a solo cat due to her reserved nature.

Broadway
Look at those big eyes and sleek, black coat...don't you just want to take her home? This is Broadway, a shy adult cat with a lot of heart. While she can be slow to warm up, she's a true sweetheart. In her foster home, where she's been given the space to blossom, she spends most of her days nuzzling up for pets and batting her favorite squeaky toy around. With Broadway, the old adage is true: good things come to those who wait, and she is certainly a cat worth waiting for.

Loop
Loop is the golden standard of kitten. Her favorite thing in the world is people, and she shows her endless devotion by licking their fingers, toes, and noses. She's almost always purring, even without you touching her, and making biscuits with her tiny paws. Her favorite toy is a snakey wand toy, which she trots around proudly after catching it. She's quite playful, but needs a quiet, dark space to take her cat naps. She's delightfully chatty, using her sweet chirps to let you know when she wants to play (which is quite often!) Loop is also quite brave, and was exploring her foster home with her tail raised high almost immediately. She is an absolute gem of a cat, and would bring a lifetime of joy to whoever brings her home.

Crunchwrap is everything a kitten should be—playful, friendly, and full of bouncy, happy spirit.

Like her littermates, this little Taco Bell kitten is outgoing, sociable, and affectionate. She a sweetheart who's especially quick to approach for cuddles, and also loves a good adventure. When she's not chasing after one of her littermates, she's finding new places to explore and new heights to climb. She's done well with her foster family's cats, and also made fast friends with their dog, snuggling up on his tail—which is twice as big as her entire body! One of her funniest tricks is dragging a spinny disk toy to all sorts of places...it isn't a small toy, but nothing's going to stop little Gordita.

Chalupa Supreme
Like her littermates, this little Taco Bell kitten is outgoing, sociable and affectionate. Although Chalupa was born with swimmer's syndrome (meaning she has no kneecaps), she has not let that stop her from all sorts of kitten adventures, whether that's playing tag with her littermates, climbing up the cat tree, or chasing the cat wand across the floor. She's been a good sport about having her tiny legs bandaged, and it's paid off with excellent progress. As a result of her swimmer's syndrome, she can't move as fast as she'd probably like, which means she can be a bit more cautious in new situations. Quite understandably, she can spend more time watching from the sidelines before hopping into the action. She's growing increasingly comfortable with her foster family's dog, and she's made friends with her family's cats as well. One of Chalupa's cutest habits is falling asleep sitting up after a long session of playtime. Silly Chalupa! She also enjoys climbing into a lap for snuggles and a churu treat, and her cuteness and can-do spirit are irresistible.

Baja Blast
Baja Blast is an absolute sweetheart. With her soulful eyes and extraordinary whiskers, she's a true beauty, inside and out. Everyone she met has been a friend. Affectionate and sociable, she's quick to reach out for cuddles when a new person enters the room. When she arrived at Paws and Claws, she was emaciated and exhausted, bravely caring for her babies. Even during those first days, she was trusting, full of love, and ready for snuggles.
She's been a devoted mom to her three kittens, allowing them to explore--including meeting the very large resident dog--but still racing over to them at the first sound of an anxious mew. She's been unbothered by her foster family's dog and has been polite, respectful, and friendly with other cats. Now that her babies are becoming independent, Baja has blossomed into an effervescent young cat who confidently and happily exploring her new surroundings. She loves to run through the house, playing chase with her kittens. She enjoys leaping at feather wands, hunting the mouse tail of her spinny toy, chasing a cat nip toy, and watching the world go by as she looks out the window or relaxes on the cat tree.
