Interested in adopting a pet — or just gazing at some furry felines near you? There are dozens of darling cats up for adoption at animal shelters in and around Colorado Springs.

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.)

Lala gets along with other cats and kittens easily and loves to receive attention from her humans. She still loves to play with laser pointers and feathered wand toys, but would much rather snuggle up with you.

He has been vaccinated and neutered, and he has mastered his house-training etiquette.

Notes on Tolstoy:

I appreciate a slower approach and am initially cautious due to my previous life, but in time I start purring when petted. I am learning and trusting more, but still uncertain about humans. I enjoy petting, particularly when snuggling with a friend. A calm and patient household is best to blossom further.

No need to worry: She's already house-trained and spayed, and she has had all her shots.

More about Treasure:

I have learned to appreciate human love, and I am quick to start purring when petted. My greatest opportunity to develop trust is through play, particularly with feathery wand toys. There is still an element of wariness if you feel too close, and I'll back away. I will be happiest in a calm home where I can ease into a comfort zone and develop a relationship.
