Interested in adopting a pet — or just looking at some cuddly kittens up for adoption? There are dozens of endearing kittens up for adoption at animal shelters in and around New York City.

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 kittens 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.)


Hazel, domestic shorthair

Hazel is a female domestic shorthair kitten staying at Ready for Rescue.

Hazel is friendly as can be, and she loves other cats. She has been vaccinated, and she's mastered her house-training etiquette.

Here's what her friends think of her:

Hazel is nothing short of a little miracle. Rescued off the street as a tiny kitten, she was extremely sick, and we weren't sure she was going to make it. But, fast forward a few weeks and she's all well and the perfect little kitten.
