Interested in adopting a pet — or just looking at some lovable kitties near you? There are dozens of great cats up for adoption at animal shelters in and around Seattle.
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.

Cilla, domestic
Cilla is a charming female domestic cat being cared for at Washington German Shepherd Rescue.
She's been vaccinated and spayed. No need to worry: She's already house-trained.
Notes from Cilla's caretakers:
Cilla is a 3-year-old, female, dilute torti who needs a home as the only cat. Cilla will greet you at the door and talk to you non-stop until you fuss her. If you sit down, she will be on your lap in a second purring, madly. When you go to bed, Cilla will curl up right next to you, and the moment you wake up she will turn on her back so you can rub her soft tummy. Cilla is an excellent spider hunter and killer, and she will eat them also so no need for clean-up. Cilla is active, playful, affectionate, curious and gentle.

Kato, snowshoe
Kato is an adorable male snowshoe cat currently housed at Seattle Animal Shelter.
Kato is already neutered.
Here's what Kato's friends at Seattle Animal Shelter think of him:
Half Siamese and half Snowshoe, Kato has the bluest eyes you ever did see. He's use to his good looks drawing in a lot of attention, but this 10-year old has a few things to say about his breed. Kato's surprised how much Grumpy Cat has made Snowshoe mixes so famous. But, he's not one for a social media following and fame, preferring a quiet and calm life. Kato does admit he's an independent cat, but also likes people and affection. He's gentle and shy with strangers, but after spending a little time getting to know you, he says he would appreciate lots of pets to his beige, cream and snowy white fur.

Hickory, domestic longhair and domestic shorthair mix
Hickory is a male domestic longhair and domestic shorthair mix currently residing at Seattle Animal Shelter.
Hickory is neutered.
From Hickory's current caretaker:
This long haired beauty is Hickory—look at those amazing whiskers! He can be shy at first meeting, but is actually quite friendly and affectionate (with an independent side). He especially enjoys head rubs! Curious like all good cats, Hickory is gentle relaxed and mellow. He does tolerate other cats. The best home for this guy will be calm/quiet/mature with some prior cat experience.

Silvie, domestic shorthair
Silvie is a charming female domestic shorthair cat being kept at Seattle Animal Shelter.
She's already been spayed.
Silvie's current caretakers say:
Silvie is a sweet calico girl who loves to chirp and sing, curl up for naps inside of cardboard boxes and cozy up to you for pets and brushings. If your hand is just out of petting range, she'll probably do her signature hop-for-pets move to make sure your hand finds her. Silvie especially likes chin and ear scratches, but she's been known to do the elevator butt move, too. She's not a fan of tummy touches or being picked up, but she's polite about setting her boundaries. Silvie would do wonderfully in a nice quiet home with mature adults.
