Stewart, American shorthair and tabby mix

Stewart is an adorable female American shorthair and tabby mix currently housed at FAT KATZ.

Stewart is the life of the party — she'll get along great with other cats, dogs and children. She is already spayed, she has had all her shots, and she's house-trained.

Stewart's current caretakers say:

Stewart dominates for attention. She will follow you around with eager anticipation of any games or play time. Loves to look out the window and sunbathe. Very vocal and loves to play with pretty much everything. Catnip is a must.

Tokyo, American shorthair

Tokyo is a charming male American shorthair cat being cared for at Street Cat Hub.

Tokyo is the life of the party — he loves other cats. He's mastered his house-training etiquette, and he is vaccinated and neutered.

Notes on Tokyo:

I was hit by a car and lost my eye, but slowly I started to get better. I was a community cat when I was injured, so I didn’t know how to trust people. Strange people trying to touch me was very scary (and still is sometimes), but I’m learning more and more how to trust that I deserve a better life. I am shy when I first meet you, but I warm up.

Rolly Polly, domestic longhair mix

Rolly Polly is a sweet female domestic longhair mix staying at Animal Humane New Mexico.

Rolly Polly is already spayed.

Notes on Rolly Polly:

I like to nurture several other of the homeless kitties here at Animal Humane. I am very affectionate. I'm still shy and adjusting to this new, strange environment. If you have other kitties at home and a quiet, calm house, I would love to go home with you.

More about Olive:

I'm still getting used to my new surroundings here at Animal Humane and am still a little scared. I love neck massages and will start purring loudly. Are you a patient human with a quiet home who's looking for a sweet feline companion?

Luca, domestic mix

Luca is a darling male domestic mix currently residing at Animal Humane New Mexico.

He's already been neutered.

Notes on Luca:

I am a mellow fellow who may seem shy at first, but don't let my wallflower act fool you. I'm really quite affectionate. Once you pet me, I'll lay on my side and purr happily. I also happen to enjoy gentle tummy rubs, and I like to play with wand toys.
