Looking to adopt a pet? Here are 4 charming cats to adopt now in MilwaukeePhotos: Petfinder

Interested in adopting a pet — or just gazing at some charming cats? There are dozens of deserving cats up for adoption at animal shelters in and around Milwaukee.

Animal shelters and pet rescue groups work hard to care for unhoused pets and connect them to loving homes. Hoodline used data from Petfinder to power this roundup of cats currently available for adoption.

(Details like pet availability, training, vaccinations and other features are based on data provided by Petfinder and may be subject to change; contact the shelter for the latest information.)


MeowMeow, domestic shorthair

MeowMeow is a male domestic shorthair cat being kept at Second Hand Purrs.

He's already house-trained. MeowMeow is neutered, and he has all his shots. MeowMeow is a special needs pet, so please inquire about his specific care requirements.

From MeowMeow's current caretaker:

MeowMeow is a very affectionate cat once he gets to know you. He loves to play with his string toys (especially the ones with feathers on them). He will also play with soft toys, balls and cat nip pillows. MeowMeow is on a prescribed wet food to help keep his urinary tract healthy.

Simba, domestic longhair

Simba is a handsome male domestic longhair cat in the care of Milwaukee Pets Alive.

Simba gets along well with other cats and dogs. Milwaukee Pets Alive, however, wants to place him in a home without small children. Fear not: He is already house-trained. He is already neutered, and he has all his shots.

From Simba's current caretaker:

Simba's just as lovely on the inside as he is on the outside. His foster family describes him as social, playful, and sweet! A “total package” kind of kitty! Simba enjoys a relaxed, laid-back, calm home environment with people who can be described as the same where he can feel confident and secure (he's been through so much). Simba does not want to share a home with young children.

Cassie, domestic shorthair

Cassie is a female domestic shorthair cat currently housed at Second Hand Purrs.

Second Hand Purrs wants to place Cassie in a home without small children. She is already house-trained. Cassie is spayed and vaccinated.

More about Cassie:

If you want a middle-aged, low-energy female cat with cattitude, then I am your girl! I can be loving, though. What I really need is a home with no other animals or small children. Then I will be totally happy and will blossom! I like being stroked behind my ears but I am not too interested in running around and playing. A quiet home would be ideal for me.

Peaches, domestic shorthair

Peaches is a charming female domestic shorthair cat staying at Milwaukee Pets Alive.

Peaches wants to be your one and only: She will need a home free of other cats, dogs and children. She has been vaccinated and spayed. She's already house-trained.

Here's what Peaches' friends at Milwaukee Pets Alive think of her:

“Best friend” and “loyal companion” is how those that know Peaches describe her. She’s so sweet and affectionate. While Peaches isn’t a lap cat, she likes to cuddle when you’re sitting or lying down. She'll immediately plop down next to you and has to be touching you somewhere! Peaches’ is very playful and her favorite toys are wand toys - actually, she loves the "stick" end of the toy that her humans make "pop out" from under her cat cube, etc. for her to pounce on.
