Jacob, tuxedo mix
Jacob is a male tuxedo kitten in the care of Austin Siamese Rescue.
Jacob is the life of the party, and he's happy to keep company with dogs. He has mastered his house-training etiquette and already has all of his shots.
From Jacob's current caretaker:
Jacob is about 10 weeks old and came to us with siblings. He is a super sweet boy who loves attention. He's fairly active, but loves sitting in my lap for lots of cuddle time. He gets along great with my three resident cats, respecting their space and warnings. His favorite toys are wands with feathers, balls on a track, and mousies. Contact us to meet Jacob and his siblings.

Peggy Maria, Siamese mix
Peggy Maria is a female Siamese kitten being kept at Austin Siamese Rescue.
Peggy Maria gets along well with other cats. She's already house-trained. Peggy Maria has all her shots.
Peggy Maria's current caretakers say:
Do you want a sweet little girl that will just look at you and melt your heart — that's me. The lady who found us said that we would need house training, but that took about one day. We all figured out that life was good in houses with people. My foster mom says that I need a home with a fur buddy. Also, adopting me along with one of my siblings would be a really good thing!

Look at my sweet face — that's me through and through. I love to play with my siblings and cuddle with my foster mom. It's hard to get six of us in one lap though — I keep falling off. That's why I need a home with more lap space. Foster mom says that I should go to a home that has another fur buddy for me to play with and cuddle with or you should adopt me and one of my siblings together!

Diesel, domestic shorthair
Diesel is a handsome male domestic shorthair kitten being cared for at Purrfect Pals Rescue.
Diesel loves other cats and dogs. Purrfect Pals Rescue, however, recommends he be placed in a home without small children. Have no fear: He's already house-trained. He is vaccinated.
From Diesel's current caretaker:
Diesel and his sister were rescued when they were a few days old, and they were bottle-raised in a loving foster home with other pets. Diesel is outgoing, friendly and very vocal. His purr is constant, which is how he got his name. He's quite spoiled and lets you know when he's hungry or wants to be held. He's a happy boy who enjoys any toy he finds or invents. We are looking for a loving home that is 100 percent indoors for these two kittens.
