Zenyatta

Zenyatta (affectionately known as "Miss Z") is quite the little lady! Over her stay at Paws and Claws, she has wiggled her way into the hearts of so many Paws and Claws volunteers and staff members. Zenyatta has such an identifiable look: her cow-spotted coat, in combination with her big, green eyes make her impossible to miss. Outside of her appearance, she has a lovable personality to boot. She LOVES getting her ears scratched and will roll around on the floor happily to show you how much she's enjoying it. Zenyatta is also very playful and adores her string toys, springs, and her beloved cardboard boxes. Every week, Zenyatta is brought a new cardboard box, which she immediately jumps into and rolls around in. While living on-site rooms, Zenyatta has also gotten the chance to show off her penchant for kittens -- staff have even caught her grooming some of the kittens in the room with her, and taking naps curled up with them! Some other adorable quirks include: playing hide and go seek with her bug toy and scratching ramp, stretching her paws out really far to say hello, and standing up on her hind legs when she really gets into playing and pets.

Lychee

Yuzu and Lychee are truly a special pair of young sisters. They have the sweetest personalities and bring such a wonderful balance to a home! Yuzu is so affectionate and loves to be held, purring away and sticking close. She’s also an especially empathetic kitty who comes to comfort you when she senses someone is upset. Lychee is playful, funny, and chatty, but she also loves being held and petted and will happily soak up affection. They play, nap, and keep each other company, but they also form such loving bonds with their people. Anyone who adopts these sisters won’t just be getting two beautiful cats; they’ll be welcoming two devoted companions into their family.

Lychee has a combination chirp/meow to signal that it’s time to pet or hold her, and basks in the love. While she prefers snuggles in sweet, manageable doses (she does have important play sessions to attend to), she really enjoys being held, and staying close to her people. After a burst of zoomies or a wand session (she also loves cat tunnels and bird toys), Lychee is happy to curl up (or sprawl out belly up) nearby and relax. If her human is close, she’ll even stretch her paws out to gently knead their hand. She is one of *very* few cats who actually enjoys having her belly petted when she’s relaxing!

Yuzu

Yuzu is so affectionate and loves to be held, purring away and sticking close. She’s also an especially empathetic kitty who comes to comfort you when she senses someone is upset. Lychee is playful, funny, and chatty, but she also loves being held and petted and will happily soak up affection. They play, nap, and keep each other company, but they also form such loving bonds with their people. Anyone who adopts these sisters won’t just be getting two beautiful cats; they’ll be welcoming two devoted companions into their family.

Yuzu is a very sweet, affectionate young girl who loves to be petted and held by her humans (she’ll purr and purr). She’ll softly meow to seek out pets and will climb into your lap for snuggle time. Yuzu loves having her cheeks stroked (and she has incredibly soft fur!). She’s happiest sticking close to her human, and makes an excellent work companion (she’ll stake out a spot on your desk to keep you company). Like her sister, she adores wand toys and bird toys, and balances playful energy with long, peaceful rests (especially on soft blankets!). She’s also attuned to her humans’ emotional states - when the foster family’s child has cried in the same room as Yuzu, she’ll promptly run over to sit by the child for comfort.

Valerie

What's not to love about Valerie? From her black-and-white bandit mask, to her absolutely adorable seal impression, all the way to her introverted nature, she is a perfect cat. Valerie first came into the care of Paws and Claws in April of 2025, and has been looking for her forever home since then. When she first arrived at her foster home, Valerie was clearly scared -- she hid away from humans, and rebuked their attempts at kindness. Over the 487 days since her arrival, she has blossomed into a totally different cat. While she doesn't seek out cuddles, she does accept polite headscratches. Valerie isn't the type of cat to curl up into your lap, but she will sit on the back of the couch while you're watching TV, or lay at the foot of the bed as you read. If you're lucky, you may even wake up one morning and notice that she's curled up right next to you, happily snoozing away. She will greet you at the door when you come home, and let out demanding little meows when she wants her favorite snacks, peanut butter or cheese. Valerie has settled into the housecat life so well that she has favorite foods. She feels safe enough to ask her humans for them, too. Valerie's perfect person will need to be someone calm, who respects her need for independence. In return, she promises to keep you safe by monitoring the outside world through the windows, and letting you know when birds or squirrels pass by. Valerie won't be everyone's perfect cat, but she doesn't have to be. She just needs one person to see the perfect companion she already is -- one person to give this senior gal the chance she deserves.

Shallot and Scallion

Meet Shallot and Scallion! These two lovely sisters are and ready to find their forever homes after having been at Paws and Claws for over 160 days. Both of these girls love window-watching, so their foster started taking them for "walks" outside in a cat stroller! Their curious, exploratory nature doesn't end there, however, as they both love to see what you're getting up to. Shallot typically takes the lead as the more outgoing sister, but Scallion still loves attention too -- when she notices you're getting ready for bed, she'll curl up next to you and settle down for the night. Their favorite way to play is chasing toys or treats thrown across the room, like playing fetch! Together, these girls add a nice, comforting presence to any home, and have so much love to give!

Chard

Looking for a desk-mate? Chard is a buttery soft boy with a lover's heart, who wants nothing more than to fall asleep right on your keyboard (so both your hands are free for pets!) His chunky whisker-pads make him look like he's constantly smiling, which he might as well be: Chard is a happy boy, who much prefers cuddles over playing (though do be prepared for his after-litterbox zoomies...) At 5 years old, Chard is more than ready to find his forever home!

Chard is 5 years old and FeLV+, meaning he can only live with other FeLV+ cats. Have questions about FeLV? Please email us at adopt@pawsandclawscatrescue.org

Chervil

Who wouldn't want an orange rapscallion in their home? If you agree, then you just have to meet Chervil. This 3-legged boy hasn't let his back-leg amputation slow him down whatsoever. He has an endlessly curious spirit, and loves figuring out how to get on things, under things, near things...you get the point: he is clever and persistent. He can be a bit of a clumsy goober at times, but his perfect humans would be someone willing to help him out and love him through his tumbles and miscalculated jumps. Chervil absolutely loves being in the same space as his humans; although he's not a super cuddler, he will lay up against you and make biscuits on blankets. He'd love a human that adores his quirkiness and energy!

Minos

This leggy boy is Minos, nicknamed Sir-Meows-a-Lot by his foster! It goes without saying that this boy is chatty -- if he's moving around, he's providing live commentary on what he's thinking. He loves people, and will always be looking for snuggletime opportunities, especially in bed (and don't blame him if he is a bit of a bedhog!) On his own, he's playful and curious, and certainly able to entertain himself without human help.

Long John Silver

Long John Silver is a beautiful little kitten, full of love and lots of wiggles! He adores people and will purr nonstop when being held. Long John Silver has tons of playful energy, and will make for a great, energetic companion!

Frankie

Frankie is a terrific companion, being the perfect combination of affectionate and independent. He greets his humans at the door when they arrive home, and hangs out nearby until he's ready for independent exploration. His favorite place, in his foster home, is the windowsill, where he can observe the sights and sounds of the outside world. He can have a playful streak too, especially when presented with ribbons or wand toys!

Treasure Island

Treasure Island is certainly a little treasure! Her favorite way to play is with a paper ball, which she bats around until she tires herself out. Once sleepy, she cuddles herself up in your lap for a nice nap. At night, she crawls right next to you in bed for snuggles until you both fall asleep. Sound perfect? Then meet her today!

Frittata

Frittata is certainly an apt name for this charming girl, as she loooooooves her food. Treats are certainly the way to this girl's heart! She also loves some solid playtime, especially with her current favorite toy, -- although she does tend to cycle through them -- a three-tiered ball-in-track. If humans are involved, however, Frittata will never say no to a wand toy session. When she's tuckered out and her stomach is full, Frittata enjoys simply following her humans around the house, just to keep them company. This relaxing girl just needs a soft place to call her forever home!

Siena

Siena is a petite sweetheart with a gorgeous tri-colored soft coat, ready for pets! When she's happy and engaged, she adorably wags her tail like a dog. She's an interactive cat, who loves to express herself with happy little chirps. When you come home after being away, she greets you at the door and keeps up her end of the conversation, filling you in on what's been going on as you've been away with her meows. Siena is always up for toy-time and enjoys chasing games -- if you want to play with her, she'll never say no, but she can make her own fun chasing toys from one end of the room to the other. When you meet her, give her some scritches on her head and ears -- you'll get some very satisfied chirps!

Pauline

Pauline is the best little kitten you could ask for: affectionate, playful, and oh-so-soft! She loves to be held, and her favorite position is relaxing with her paws and head on your shoulder while she just purrs away. When her foster first welcomed her home, she came right out of her carrier and waited to be picked up in their arms. Pauline could truly be happy spending all day tucked under your chin!

Petrova

Petrova, or Petra in her foster home, is a little sprite -- very playful, goofy, and so much fun! She has the perfect tabby-tiger markings, and, when she falls asleep on her back, you can see the cutest little spotted belly. She's a confident kitten with lots of energy, often too busy with playtime to stop for pets, but when she does slow down, she's very affectionate and full of purrs.

Vonnegut

Vonnegut is a gentle boy with a big appetite and the vocal range of Pavarotti. At 8 months old, he was found in a park, abandoned inside of a cage. He hasn't let this rough start to life dampen his spirits, however. Although he may take some more time to warm up to new humans, he has a curious heart, and his desire to explore will always win over his timidness. Vonnegut spends plenty of time on his own, usually investigating new toys or unexamined parts of his foster home, but always reappears when it's time to eat! He is a curious, easy-going, and good-hearted boy, and we can promise that earning his trust is a rewarding experience.

Toccata and Fugue

These two musical boys are Fugue and Toccata, and they're very happy to meet you! Toccata is a playful little gentleman. While he may be shy at first, it only takes a crinkle ball toy for him to start bouncing around like an acrobat. His favorite place to be? Napping, right behind his brother, Fugue! Fugue's number one talent is that he is an expert sniffer -- he will explore every inch for the house before he chooses his favorite spot. He's a big fan of snacks, and an even bigger fan of his best friend and brother, Toccata. Here's a secret: if you give him something yummy, Fugue will let you cradle him until he falls asleep!

Altair

Altair is a gentle soul, looking for a peaceful home to rest in. He may be initially shy, but he certainly cannot resist a good ear scratch and will warm up quickly with a bit of affection. Once comfortable, Altair is always welcoming of attention, and stays calm regardless of the environment -- 100% a very good boy, even when the vacuum is out! He's very communicative about what he likes, and will tell you just how happy he is with his sweet meow. He may look like a panther, but Altair is an all-around teddy bear.

Black Pearl

Ahoy, matey! Step aboard our ship and meet this swashbuckling litter of 5. These well-socialized kittens have VERY hearty appetites -- true pirates who are not afraid of plundering food from each other.

Queen Anne's Revenge, the only female in her litter, is the boss of meal time and the most likely to steal food from her siblings.

Maple Syrup

These two girls are sweeter than sugar -- meet Molasses and Maple Syrup! They are, to quote their foster, "the best." They're happy to play, especially when presented with plush mice or balls, but are just as happy to laze around and nap. They love people, and make the most wonderful biscuits when they're being pet, but they enjoy time away from humans, where they can groom and play with one another independently. If you want a relaxed set of bonded girls, Molasses and Maple Syrup are for you!

Excavator

The Construction Crew kittens—Steamroller, Cement Mixer, Excavator, and Dump Truck—are four of a kind: happy, playful, friendly, cuddly, and full of bouncy, bubbly kitten energy. They love snuggles, curling up on laps, and finding sunny spots. They are hardworking kittens—batting balls, chasing toy mice, wrestling with each other, zooming through tunnels, and racing to the top of the scratching post. When they are all tuckered out, you’ll find them cuddled up together on soft blankets in their favorite nooks. These playful, affectionate, and happy-go-lucky kittens just need their forever homes to explore!

Mallow

Mallow is a soft, gooey girl who clings to you like marshmallows to a graham cracker. She is an affectionate girl who loves hanging out with her person, whether that be cuddling in their lap or sitting on a window perch nearby. Her perfect person is someone who understands the importance of morning cuddles, as Mallow loves to wake her person up in the morning to snuggle -- her foster does report that Mallow knows what the snooze button is, however! Playtime is important to Mallow too, so she hopes to find her forever home with someone who won't mind waving a wand toy around for her. She is a sweet, affectionate, and playful girl who would make an excellent lifelong companion.

Jolly Roger

Yo-ho! Make sure you don't miss out on looking at these two orange tabby brothers, Tick-Tock and Jolly Roger. Jolly Roger, the bigger of the two, is inquisitive and energetic. He has a hearty appetite, enjoying eating, playing with toys, and frolicking with his brother. Tick-Tock, the smaller brother, tends to be a bit more cautious when it comes to new experiences. Once he gets comfortable around you, he can't stop himself from coming over and saying hi and getting some pets. Together, these two promise a lifetime of fun -- all they're missing their forever home!

Crepe

Crépe is a bitsy cat who is gentle with her human and would enjoy a quiet life watching over you. She's got her fussy and grumbly vocalizations, but actually she's quite pleased with many simple things. She enjoys a sunny spot on the bed or nearby ledge to watch the world out the window while being near you, or having a third or fourth nap in her favorite round scratcher/bed combo. She might crawl into your lap if you have a plush blanket and you can lean in to hear her very soft purrs!

When it's playtime, you can enjoy chuckling at her dive, slide, and roll over in pursuit of a wand toy (especially on a bed!), her delight dashing through a tunnel, or when she grumbles and clutches a rolled up towel or yoga mat to rabbit-kick it excitedly. More often than not, she's spent after a few sprints and would like to plop on her side and have you dangle the wand toy for her to bat around. She's a great companion for reading time, movie night, and nap time.

Mr. Smee

Mr. Smee may not be an old man, but he certainly has the soul of one! This spunky little guy takes his role as household supervisor very seriously and likes to keep a close eye on his favorite people at all times. If you get up to leave, expect some dramatic grumbling and a well-timed flop across your legs as he tries to convince you to stay put. Despite his grouchy commentary, Mr. Smee is incredibly affectionate and loves snuggling close, especially if it means giving you one of his signature face-smush greetings. This quirky, loyal companion is ready to bring plenty of love and cuddles to his forever home.

Bluejay

Bluejay is a tweety three-year-old girl with the personality of a kitten! She's always ready for a play session, and is (of course) fond of an interactive toy she and her human can play with together, but she can just as easily entertain herself by batting a toy around the room. She loves to follow her people around from room-to-room, curious about what they're getting up to (and can she be involved?!) Her foster's favorite quirk about her is that Bluejay will frequently come running into rooms that they're in, happily meowing and updating them on what she's been up to, before settling into one of her favorite spots nearby to settle down. For Bluejay, her ideal adopter would be someone ready for play sessions, then cuddle sessions, followed by some more play. She relishes in attention, and her sweet personality is sure to win you over.

Little Sparrow

This girlie with the permanent wink is Little Sparrow -- and little indeed! Her small size and one eye doesn't slow her down for even a second: she loves to run around, play, and explore just like any other kitten. Once she tires herself out, Little Sparrow loves to nestle up right by her humans and sleep away. She's truly a precious baby that will bring fun and laughter to her forever home.

Pollen

No allergies here -- just little miss Pollen! This 4-year-old girl is sweet and chatty, with the gentlest, softest meow you'll ever hear. She uses that meow to gain your attention, particularly when she's looking for some gentle scritches or some help finding the sunniest spot in the house. Pollen's ideal home is with someone who wants a low-key, low-maintenance pet!

Conch

These insta-charmers are Whelk and Conch, and they are so happy to *sea* you! Conch can be a bit reserved at first, but she warms up quickly -- especially with the help of treats! She is a curious girl who is especially interested in other animals, including dogs. From the second you meet her, you can just tell she's a sweetie!

Whelk

These insta-charmers are Whelk and Conch, and they are so happy to *sea* you! Whelk purrs contentedly the moment he lays eyes on you, and will follow you around the house, just waiting for the opportunity to be picked up. He loves playing, and can make a toy out of anything.

Arcturus

Arcturus is a sweetheart, named after one of the brightest stars in the night sky. After getting to know him, we're certain that Arcturus, like his namesake, would light up any home he goes to! He's affectionate, and particularly fond of following humans around from room-to-room, watching as they do chores or hang around. When he notices you have a free hand, he likes to come up to you and headbutt to get your attention for some pets. He is a loving, chill kitty, ready to find his forever home!

Tamari

In pairs, there's typically an extrovert and an introvert. In this adorable duo, Tamari is the one who comes right out to see what's up, is the first to say hello, the first to get the tussle going with her sister...the classic outgoing kitten! Her sister. Mirin, is more circumspect. For her first few days in foster, Mirin preferred to thoroughly inspect her new environment--and the people in it--before showing off her playful side. Once settled, however, Mirin became an absolute dynamo when it came to hide-and-pounce with her sister. Now that she's come out for her shell, Mirin gives her foster gentle little licks and nose-boops for pets, and is an absolute lovebug. Together, they are the cutest, happiest little chaos kitties. When all is quiet, their foster will peak their head in to see how they're doing, and both girls will lift their sleepy heads up and give them snoozy blinks.

Tracy Chapman

Tracy Chapman is a loving girl who, at 10 months old, knows exactly what she wants: love! She can be a bit shy at first, but her drive for affection outweighs any apprehension she initially feels. Once she warms up, she becomes an absolute lover. Tracy loves being picked up, showered in pets, and being doted upon! To show you her appreciation, she'll rub her face against your face, making you feel extra special.

Big Ben

True to his namesake, Big Ben is a big boy with an impressive vocal range, going from baritone meows to squeaky chirps, all depending upon his mood. He is curious and confident, being the first to investigate suspicious noises, birds outside the window, or those with free hands they could be using to pet him. Even though he's a chunky boy, he thinks he is the tiniest kitty in the world, and will climb into your lap the moment he sees the opportunity. His foster's favorite quirk of his is that Big Ben sees ice cubes as the ultimate feline delicacy, both as treats and toys. Chatty, gentle, and just a bit clumsy, Big Ben is a sweetheart who would thrive in any home.

Prose

Prose is a petite little lady of few words who, once she's comfortable, emerges as a playful and rambunctious girl! She loves other cats, both as playmates and comforting companions, and can often be found batting around a toy with a feline friend, or snuggled up next to another kitty for a nap. When she's by herself, her favorite way to play is to stand claim to a cardboard box, or chase around balls and springs. Prose's perfect person is someone who wants an affectionate, yet independent kitty!

Donna and Sophie

Mamma Mia! This mother-daughter duo is ready to find a forever home. Donna is a loving, doting mother to her little kitten, Sophie, with no time together slipping through her paws. Donna loves getting pets, and will never say no to some loving, but usually spends her time chasing after her energetic daughter. Sophie is a classically rambunctious kitten: she loves roping her mother into her roughhousing, and when she thinks no one is looking, shows off her goofy side through some intense play sessions. Together, they'd love to go home with someone who enjoys giving them attention, whether that be through pets or play, but who also gives them their space when they want some mother-daughter time too.

Fiji

Fiji may be the smallest of her litter, but don't count her out! She's a total chiller, who much prefers to observe the action before pouncing into everything herself. When in a playful mood, you can usually find her flouncing around with a pom-pom toy in her mouth, like the cute huntress she is. She loves being held, especially if you face her out toward the world so she can observe everything.

Voss

Voss takes his role as big brother very seriously, and can often be found clinging to his sister, Fiji, for playtime and snuggle time. His foster has given him the nickname "The Engineer," because they say they can "see the wheels turning in his head as he tries to figure out an obstacle." Talk about unstoppable kitten force! His perfect person is someone who can handle his bursts of playful energy, while also being prepared to handle his intense cuddling needs. He's just a baby!

Irene

Irene is the kind of cat you see in pet commercials -- so sweet, so well-behaved, so cuddly, and SO gorgeous. The distinctive black spot on her nose is the cutest thing about her, as she presses that very nose right against your face when you hold her. Irene is slowly becoming more curious and interested in exploring the world around her, and of course can't resist playing with her favorite spinny toys. If you want a kitten, you're missing out if you don't meet Irene and let her show you just what an excellent biscuit-maker she is.

Dasani

These two kittens are Dasani and Ice Mountain, and they're determined to steal your heart! Dasani is the confident, adventurous one of the duo. He tends to lead the charge when it comes to mischief, but Ice Mountain is never far behind! Together, they play and wrestle the day away -- they love to bring their "catches" (aka toys) over to you in their mouth for you to "ooh" and "aah" over. Although they're certainly energetic, they'll always wind down at the end of a long day, ready for some one-on-one snuggle time. Ice Mountain is the cuddliest of the two -- he loves to be carried around like a baby, and it's just the cutest when he looks up at you with his big eyes! As soon as either gets into your arms, they start purring like electric motors, showing just how much they love you. Having been at Paws and Claws for over 50 days, we've gotten to see these kittens blossom and mature, and we're confident that they are ready to find their forever homes.

David Bowie

David Bowie is the guy with the permanent wink on his face! He is an affectionate, cuddly companion is just as perfect as any cat could be. In foster, his days mostly consist of independent play time with as many toys as he can get his paws on, chasing his feline-siblings around, and curling right underneath his foster human's chin for snuggles. Don't get us started on David Bowie's singing, either: his meows are just a series of little squeaks! David Bowie would love to go home with someone who will reciprocate affection and playtime -- in return, he promises to be "an angel on Earth," as his foster described him.

Cassandra

Cassandra can see the future...she can see herself in your home! She's a calm and incredibly loving girl, always wanting to be close to her people. She'll walk right up and give you a few gentle licks when she's ready for some pets, and then back up like a little dumptruck to commence some serious back scratches! She's playing, and especially fond of chasing a toy around the house. She's the perfect fix of affectionate, playful, and adorably quirky -- plus, we think her cross-eyed look makes her all the more distinguished and easy to fall in love with!

Ragetti

Ragetti, the long-haired guy on the right, starts off as shy and reserved, but quickly becomes confident with encouraging pets and treats. Once comfortable, he's ready to show off just how sweet he is with his magnificent purr. Come meet him today!

Pintel

Pintel, the short-haired boy on the left, is rambunctious, lively, and full of capital-E energy! As a kitten, he's fearless and courageous, conquering any toy that dare stands in his way. He is adaptable, and would suit any home well.

Spinach

Spinach, or Spin-chan to his fosters, is a sweet boy with mismatched white socks! He loves hanging out on windowsills, getting pets behind his ears, and purring like a thunderstorm. He's a sweet and gentle boy -- except when it comes to his wand toys! When Spinach plays, he plays hard, and rests even harder. In his forever home, he just wants a nice and soft lap to nap in!

Sarah Paulson

This cutie is Sarah Paulson, and she's ready to find her forever home! Over the 75 days she's been in foster, Sarah Paulson has had the chance to blossom into the friendly, energetic, and curious cat she was born to be. She loves to be involved with whatever her humans are doing, and her perfect human would be someone wanting a little shadow to follow around all day long. She loves to observe her foster while they cook, sit right on top of their puzzles, or examine their sewing supplies while they sew -- like we said: curious! If she sounds perfect, come and meet her today and bring her home -- just make sure you have plenty of hair ties at home for her to play with, as they're her favorite.

Watercress

If you want a bitsy kitty with a chirpy meow, a cat with an insatiable drive to capture spring toys, and a companion to sleep right on top of the freshly dried laundry (to keep it warm, of course!), then Watercress is your perfect pet. This girl doesn't want much -- just someone to toss her toys around for her to chase! In return, she promises to confidently investigate anything new she notices around the house and to fall asleep right by your feet every night.

Cloudy

Cloudy, Rainy, Snowy, and Windy all promise to be by your side, no matter the weather! Cloudy is rambunctious, to say the least. She is playful and active, always roping her siblings into her hijinks and mischief. If you want an energetic kitten to keep you on your toes, Cloudy is the girl for you!

Rainy

Cloudy, Rainy, Snowy, and Windy all promise to be by your side, no matter the weather! Although Rainy's name may remind you of dour weather, we promise that she is just a peach! She's a quiet girl who prefers a chill, calm environment -- her personality is like reading while rain hits your window. She loves to be held, however, and will purr contently when being pet.

Snowy

Cloudy, Rainy, Snowy, and Windy all promise to be by your side, no matter the weather! Snowy can be shy at first, but with a little bit of patience (and plenty of Churu treats!) she comes out of her shell and shows off her playful side. Once comfortable, she loves rolling around with her siblings and chasing wand toys heartily. When tuckered out, she'll come over to her most trusted human and wait patiently for the petting to start.

Windy

Cloudy, Rainy, Snowy, and Windy all promise to be by your side, no matter the weather! Windy is the friendliest kitten you'll ever meet -- she perks up as soon as she sees a human, and is always excited for playtime. She entertains herself well by batting her toys around or chasing her siblings, but Windy loves her humans most of all.

Forte

It's not everyday that you meet a father-daughter bonded duo, but Piano and Forte certainly are proof that it does happen, and it is just the cutest! Forte, the father, is one of the sweetest, calmest cats you'll ever meet. He has the gentlest personality, and takes Piano's kitten antics in stride. Whenever he settles down to relax, it's usually somewhere he can keep an eye on his daughter. No matter what she's up to, he's always quietly watching over her. As if he couldn't get any more adorable, Forte has six toes on each of his front paws, making him look like he's gotten mittens on!

Piano, in contrast, is a tiny bundle of endless energy. She's always hopping from one place to another like a little bunny, always curious and ready for her next adventure. Her favorite thing in the world is to play, especially with her dad, Forte. You'll often find her chasing him around, pouncing on him, or trying to convince him to join in another game.

Whipped Cream

No ice cream sundae is complete without Whipped Cream, Hot Fudge, and a Maraschino Cherry! Hot Fudge, the male of the litter, is a cuddly guy who loves to sleep right in the crook of your neck. He's super laid back, but can still play with the best of them. Most of all, he's happy to go with the flow of his siblings or humans! Maraschino Cherry is the definite leader of the pack. She's constantly playing, whether that be with toys or with her siblings, but cuddles hard when the time is right. Whipped Cream is the most laid back and gentle of the group, but still has some healthy kitten energy. When getting cuddled, which she loves to do, she makes the cutest little grunting sounds!

Kirby

Meet Kirby! Named after the pink puffball himself (and our Programs and Facilities Assistant!), Kirby is a playful and friendly companion who is ready to find his forever home. Kirby loves interacting with humans, and is especially fond of lap-sitting and lounging. When he's energized, he loves playing around with a wand toy, or scratching at his cat tower. If you want the best of both worlds, energized and loving, then Kirby is the cat for you!

Splish

Splish and Splash are two teensy kittens, ready to meow and mew their way into your heart! Splish, the male tabby cat, loves human attention and will gladly climb into your arms and purr his little heart out. Splash, his confident older sister, is just as chatty, and loves being on the receiving end of attention. There's one guarantee we have with these two: when they look up with you with those eyes that take up half their face, you won't be able to stop yourself from taking either of them home!

BBQ

Sweet and tender? Sounds like BBQ to us! BBQ loves to follow his humans around from room-to-room, and lets out little high pitched, squeaky meows to ask for some attention. He is an incredibly curious boy who can often be found exploring every nook and cranny of home, and jumping up to high spaces to observe the world from up above. BBQ is a lovely companion who would thrive in a calm, loving home!

Vincent Price

There’s just something special about black cats, and Vincent Price is no exception. He isn’t like those other cats that immediately roll over for anyone—he takes his time and makes sure you are trustworthy. But, when he does decide you are worthy, he rewards you with tons of headbutts and the opportunity to pet the silkiest fur in the world. And, like his namesake, Vincent Price has a distinctive voice he uses to say hello when you enter the room. Cast in a patient home, Vincent can flourish into a starring role, or scene-stealing supporting performance.

Magik

Magik is a young and hip cat, ready to make your acquaintance and then do whatever you want to do! Wands, springs, mice - you name it, and if it's in your hands, it's the coolest toy she's ever seen. At food time, she will eat whatever you put in front of her with no complaints. When it's bedtime, she'll find a cozy corner and go right to sleep. The only mistake you can make with this easy-going cat is not taking her home today!

Psyche

This gentle girl is Psyche, and she's looking for a peaceful home to settle into. She looooves to people watch, and can usually be found staring at you with her big, yellow eyes, perched on a windowsill or couch edge. Her favorite way to play is with a feather toy -- she gets the cutest zoomies! If you're looking to get on her good side, nothing entices Psyche more than a Churu treat.

Vader

If you're looking for a best friend, there to listen to you and respond back with grumbly meows, there to watch TV with you, or there to follow you around the house like a little shadow, Vader is, without a doubt, the guy for you. He takes all of 5 minutes to warm up to new people, as his love of attention always wins over. With just a bit of coaxing, Vader is out and about, flopping over to show off his tummy and get some belly rubs. Vader isn't a lapcat persay, but he promises to not leave your side, and will loudly ask for pets when he wants some specialized attention -- scratch his head, and you may just see him pop up on his two hind legs. He isn't particularly interested in toys or playing, but he loves to explore and chat with you about his findings!

Cupid Shuffle

These kittens are ready to shuffle and slide their way your heart! Locomotion is the largest of her litter, and with that, the most confident -- she is playful, adventurous, and tends to take the lead with her siblings. Cupid Shuffle is a well-rounded kitty who is always up for whatever; he adores eat pets and turns into putty in your hands when you give her scratches. Macarena can be a timid girl, but shows off her playful, loving side when around other cats. She loves to follow around her siblings and her foster's resident cat! Electric Slide can start off shy, but once he realizes he's safe, he just wants to be held and coddled. He's a total love bug. Any of these kitties would make excellent additions to your home!

Dim Sum and Hot Pot

What's better than Hot Pot and Dim Sum? (Hint: nothing!) These two kittens are warm, comforting, and ready to take home today. Dim Sum, the black and white kitten, is generally cool, calm, and collected, but don't be fooled into thinking she isn't up for playtime! She is the bravest girl, always crafting new escape plans to get out of her playpen. She has a sweet side to her, as well: she loves to get wrapped in a warm washcloth for head scritches and naps in your arms. Hot Pot, the brown and white kitten, is small but mighty. He wishes he could follow his sister around everywhere, and loves to follow in her mischievous footsteps. He's just as happy to snooze in your arms for hours...until his next burst of energy hits!

Wendy Darling

Wendy Darling is a talkative girl with a sweet meow and even sweeter disposition! She is curious, energetic, loving, and warms up quickly as she gets to know you. She loves to stay close by her humans, letting out adorable, chirpy meows, and soaking up all the cuddles and attention she can get. If you are hoping to find a gentle and loving companion, Wendy Darling is it!

Iceberg

Iceberg is a sweet, slightly shy boy who feels more confident when supported by his sibling, Romaine. When he's confident, he's an absolute lovebug of a cat whose number one passion in the world is eating! Outside of getting his (more than fair) share of treats, he enjoys scratching on his cat tree and playing with his siblings.

Romaine

Romaine is a feisty but friendly girl. She loves pets, attention, begging for treats, and following her mom, Lettuce, around. Romaine's special talent is being able to turn anything into a toy, and her favorite pastime is antagonizing her siblings and chasing her foster's dog's tail.

Uno and Skip-bo

Draw two! Uno and Skip-bo are a big-eyed duo who are pure joy and sweetness. From their first day in Foster, they've both been ready for pets and snuggles after tiring from a good play session. They are total kittens in all the best ways, playing hard and cuddling even harder. Skip-bo, nicknamed Bowie in his foster home, is slightly bigger than his brother, and has a cute little meow. Uno is smaller, has one white whisker, and uses his meow like a megaphone!

Great Smoky Mountains

Senior cats are often some of the most overlooked pets for adoption, solely due to their age. If you want an affectionate, cuddly, and downright silly companion, Great Smoky Mountains is 100% the man for you, no matter his age. At 13 years old, he still loves to play, and is happy to make his own fun: in foster, Smoky's favorite "toy" is a sock, which he holds against his chest with his front paws and kicks with his hind legs. His quirks include: rubbing his face against EVERYTHING, pushing himself against your hand for pets, and turning his fur-brush into a gum massager. Smoky is a calm, gentle, fun, Churu-loving, and social cat who loves to spend time with his humans. In short, he would make an excellent companion -- all he needs is the forever home!

Cuddle Bug

Cuddle Bug, nicknamed Bug in her foster home, is a purrfect little lady! She ADORES attention, but is still getting used to affection -- she'd love to go to a forever home where she can get lots of lap-sitting practice in! Her favorite toys are ones double or even triple her size (you should see her wrestle with her giant dog-sized worm toy!) Cuddle Bug is a total purr factory, and would be an absolute delight to adopt.

Barnacle

Looking for a sweet, gentle companion who lives up to his name? Barnacle is a snuggly little cat who likes to stick to his humans like a barnacle to a ship hull! His favorite activity is curiously following you around, quietly observing, and making sure he receives some pets along the way. As a former stray, he now loves curling up on soft places - like a cat bed, a pillow, or best of all, his people’s laps!

Circlet

Circlet is a gorgeous girl with a personality as lovely as she is. She loves to play, enjoys being held, and is equally happy doing her own thing and exploring her surroundings. As the leader of her siblings, she’s already had plenty of practice calling the shots and is more than ready to take on the important job of ruling her new household. Playful, confident, and sweet, Circlet is ready to meet her forever family!

Coronet

Coronet is a darling boy with two great loves: adventure and a good nap. If your lap isn’t available, he’ll happily find the silliest spot to curl up, whether that’s on a hardwood table, atop a free weight, or tucked into a shoe rack—but when a warm lap is available, that will always be his favorite place to rest. Playful, sweet, and curious, Coronet would love nothing more than to find a forever family where he can explore, play, and curl up beside you.

Crown

Crown is aptly named because this sweet boy is destined to be king of your lap. His purrs could power a city, and he’s happiest curled up with his people, soaking up all the love he can get. He enjoys a good feather toy and has a playful side, but nothing beats settling in for a cozy cuddle. Sweet, affectionate, and absolutely charming, Crown is ready to rule his forever home.

Diadem

Diadem is an incredibly sweet girl who will have you falling in love with her in no time. She loves to play, enjoys exploring on her own, and starts purring almost immediately when she’s in your arms. She has the perfect mix of independence and sweetness, happily entertaining herself one minute and enjoying cuddle time the next. If you’re looking for a playful, well-rounded kitten with a wonderful personality, Diadem may be your perfect match.

Tiara

Tiara has had a rough start to life with her eye troubles, but this brave little girl doesn't let impaired vision slow her down. She loves climbing, playing, exploring, and, most importantly, finding a person to curl up with. Her purrs start the moment she’s with you, and she is happiest when she’s getting some well-deserved cuddles. Resilient, playful, and incredibly sweet, Tiara is a little gem who deserves a forever family to love her as much as she’ll love them.

Royal

Royal is a sweet, fun cat who is ready to make herself at home immediately! Her long legs, slinky tail, and big yellow eyes are reminiscent of children's literary icon Pete The Cat, and she happily participates in reading time with her foster family's six-year-old every night. As befits royalty, she is not particularly interested in sitting on anyone's lap, but does like to stay close by and observe in case her presence is required to sit on a book or walk on a computer keyboard. Bring Royal home and let her love you the best way she knows how: bringing you a freshly hunted hair tie!

Sand Dollar

Sand Dollar is a happy kitten with strikingly beautiful features, including white-tipped ears. He loves to play with toys and explore, and is affectionate and brave around humans. He happily explores the home and takes breaks for petting from his human companions. He loves to play with wand toys, fuzzy balls, and anything else! He would love to be adopted with his little brother Sea Urchin, as they spend time napping, exploring, and playing together and are bonded and the perfect “matched set.”

Sea Urchin

Sea Urchin is an adorable tiny boy, much smaller than his brother, Sand Dollar. That doesn’t stop him from keeping up with all the fun and kitten antics! Sea Urchin is playful, brave, affectionate, and loves to be with humans. He loves being pet and purrs happily whenever he is getting affection from his human companions. He is even brave around the family dogs— observing and approaching them with interest. Sea Urchin and Sand Dollar are bonded, spending playtime and nap time with each other and getting along perfectly.

Dollywood

In honor of the great Dolly Parton, we have Miss Dollywood, whose meow has a bit of a twang! Dollywood came to Paws and Claws with a large, open wound on her back, but the pain she was in from that didn't stop her from trusting humans with her whole heart. She loves snuggling, and her favorite way to show affection is by bumping her face right into yours. Dollywood will be a sweet and loving companion to whoever is lucky enough to bring her home!

Abalone

Abalone is looking to find someone to nap alllllll over. She purrs from the second someone picks her up, and relishes in any and all attention directed her way. Her favorite way to snuggle? Wrapping her whole body around your neck, like a little scarf. She's the perfect little sister to her foster's resident cat, and is confident and adventurous (as any good kitten is!) If you want an expert biscuit-maker, she is certainly the gal for you!

Thomas O'Malley

A long way away from the French countryside: meet Mr. Thomas O'Malley! This aristocat is 3 years old and ready to find his duchess* (*fortune and title not required!) He loves meeting new people, and uses his dashing good looks to charm folks into giving him extra Churu treats -- not that anyone seems to mind giving him some extra love.

Spoon

This tiny-yet-mighty girl is Spoon! Her favorite place to rest is in the hammock of a cat tree, where she can fall asleep looking out a window. When she's up from her cat-naps, she's playing with spring toys and toys that crinkle -- her absolute favorites! She loves being around her people, and loves to tuck her foster family in at night before heading off for some alone time. Spoon is the perfect mix of independent and loving, and would make for a great companion in any home!

Fork

This little sous chef is Fork, and he's ready to go to his forever home, where he can help his humans prepare his meals! Once he's finished inspecting his pate, Fork is ready for playtime. He isn't picky, though: wand toys, stuffed mice, or crinkly balls make him equally happy. Once tuckered out, he's ready to curl up on the couch beside you and snooze away.

Spork

Spork, just as his name implies, is a perfect combination of snuggle bunny and energetic young cat. When he sees your lap is free while lounging on the couch, he'll climb right in and make himself at home. He loves to run off and play (or just hang out in spare cardboard boxes), but will always return to get some loving.

Skipjack

Skipjack, or Skippy in his foster home, is a happy-go-lucky orange boy looking for his forever person to charm the socks off of! With Skipjack, the adage about orange cats is true: he has one braincell, and it works very, very hard. His sense of curiosity is bigger than his survival instinct; he loves to investigate the vacuum, even as it runs right next to him, or run into rooms/closets without a care in the world as to if the odor is closing. This does, however, mean that Skippy is supremely unbothered by intense petting sessions, being picked up at a moment's notice, or getting kisses all over his fuzzy body. He's an excellent cuddler, but is very likely to accidentally walk on you while sleeping. Skippy's favorite way to play is to hunt his brother, Albacore, down, but seems supremely shocked when Albacore decides to tussle back. His favorite way to sleep is flat on his back, snuggled against you, his brother, or his father, Tuna Melt. Don't be alarmed if he tries to groom you like he does his siblings -- it's out of love! And don't be shocked if he's fascinated by mirrors and always trying to look at himself (or accidentally bumping into them...). If you want a clumsy, charming, and downright adorable boy, Skipjack is the cat for you.

Albacore

Meet Albacore -- like his mustache? Us too! This handsome guy is 6 months old and an absolute pro at playtime. He loves to tussle with his brother, Skipjack, and father, Tuna Melt, but will halt all rambunctious activity the second he sees that your lap is available. Albacore, or Albie, loves watching TV, especially anything that moves: when his foster watches Formula 1, he chases the cars across the screen, and bats at the mouse on his foster's computer screen. At night, Albie sleeps tucked right next to his humans, and will even sleep upside down if it means he can lean against you.

Tuna Melt

Papa Tuna Melt is a lover at heart: ready to melt all over his forever family like...a tuna melt! This 2-year-old guy is a total chiller, motivated most by pets and snuggles. His modus operandi is simple: getting as close to you as possible! He's a total shadow-cat, and is completely relaxed when his rambunctious sons, Skipjack and Albacore, play all over him. In fact, Tuna Melt has his only playful streak, but he's much more casual about it, preferring to laze around as he bats at string. He's confused by squeezy treats, but absolutely obsessed with cheese (the way to his heart!) When an energetic mood strikes, he loves to hide in bags (backpacks, mailer bags, etc) and wait for the perfect opportunity to jump out and surprise his sons. Tuna Melt is also fascinated by human routines, and loves to watch his foster parent get ready in the bathroom, curled up right in the sink.

Panko and Breadcrumb

These bready boys are Panko and Breadcrumb, and they are ready to find their forever home! Breadcrumb, the silver fox of the duo, is highly affectionate, agile, and adventurous. He may take a few days to settle into a new environment, but once he does, he owns the place. When he sees your lap is free, he's there to snuggle! Panko is his more reserved brother, who tends to follow Breadcrumb's lead. Panko certainly isn't shy when it comes to playing, however! When these two play, their wrestling puts WWE to shame.
