Female Kitties of

I once saw a survey - people were asked which sex was more affectionate - 50 % voted for males - 45% for females (I guess the other 5% were confused or unable to decide)! Which just shows what I believe - both sexes are wonderful. Adopt the cat that you bond with!

Also people wonder which sex to adopt if they already have a cat. I haven't seen any studies but I know this - 2 female cats, 2 male cats or one of each, all work really well in a household if each cat likes other cats and of course if a 'proper' introduction is done.

To most people I look like an 'ordinary' black kitten. Little do they know I'm a very outgoing loving sweetheart! My secret.... I was bottle fed! I learned early on that humans are just the best and being picked up and held means wonderful things like being fed and cuddled!!

My sister, Sacagawea (that's a mouthful!) and I were rescued from inside a construction machine when we were only 5 days old! Our mommy moved our siblings Teddy Roosevelt and Betsy Ross but didn’t have time to move us before we were discovered.

Teddy and Betsy tease us sometimes because we’re smaller than they are (they had more time with mommy) but we counter with the fact that bottle fed kittens are the BEST so we’re super sweet!!! In fact we just love to be picked up and held and will purr at the drop of a hat!!

We’re known as the “famous people” kittens J And true to our heritage we do love to explore ! Pouncing and playing are too much fun, especially with our humans and of course other kittens!! Do you have toys at your house?

My sister (she has already been adopted) and I were saved from living in a storm drain during one of the coldest months this year. It took a couple of baths to get the dirt out of my fur, but it was worth it ... don't you think I am stunning?

I am pure white with a tiny black smudge on the top of my head, and my thick soft fur will remind you of a rabbit when you pet me.

Since my sister and I lived outside for the first few months of our lives, I can sometimes be a little timid. But once I settle in, I'll just about turn myself inside out making sure that you don't miss a spot when you pet me. I do have a few favorites - which you'll soon learn - scratch my chin and ears and I'll push right into your hand. You'll hear my purr motor kick in and see me prance back and forth to show you how happy I am !

I also love to snuggle - if your lap is available, I'll be in it... I'm a real snuggle puss and will definitely keep you company each night while you watch TV or just relax on the couch. So if you're looking for a lap kitten, I'm for you. And I don't mind sharing .. I get along great with other kitties ! I do need to be honest with you about one thing though - I'm not thrilled with being picked up or held. It still makes me a little nervous and I haven't been able to get past that.

Azura

Domestic Short Hair - White

Female

Date of Birth June 1, 2006

Most people look at Azura and see her beautiful white fur, perhaps they pet her and see how 'rabbit-like' it is....but the really wonderful thing about Azura is her personality. She's a love - in fact Azura adores attention! The more you pet her ...the louder she purrs.

Azura loves to be petted and even picked up and held. She really loves to be around 'her' people. She will sit beside you as well as in your lap...especially if you are giving her lots and lots of attention.

Azura would be fine in a household with one other cat and even a calm dog. A multiple cat household would be too much for her - she likes other kitties but too many are overwhelming to her. Azura would do best in a household without small children.

This beautiful affectionate girl is looking for her forever home - are you the home for her?

Note: Azura gets scared at adoptathons - meeting her in private is recommended. This way you can see her in her own environment and you can see how loving she really is. She is a confident kitty and will adapt very easily to your home. Please give her the chance to get to know you.

Betsy Ross

Domestic Short Hair - Brown Tabby

Female

Estimated Date of Birth March 26, 2008

My brother, Teddy Roosevelt and I were rescued from a construction machine shop when we were almost a month old. Our mommy had moved us from inside a construction machine just in the nick of time – our 2 sisters Amelia Earhart and Sacagawea weren’t moved 'in time', but luckily some nice people rescued them.

We tease Amelia and Sacagawea because we had more time with mommy (they were rescued when they were only 5 days old) and therefore we’re bigger. But they tell us they had longer with our foster mom and well don’t tell them but that does sound pretty great. We didn’t know it before we were rescued but people are really great! They got to bottle feed longer than we did (that KMR is yummy!)

More Pictures of Betsy Ross

I'm such a pretty girl - with just a hint of red and blond in my thick coat that sets off my green eyes! Although I am a quiet, non-assuming girl, I CRAVE attention. I love to rub my head against your face - and if you'll gently scratch my shoulders, I'll reward you with lots of loud purrs. Sometimes to get your attention, I'll start to do cute little moves which looks almost like I'm going to stand on my head. Then when you're tired and ready to settle onto the couch for the night, I'll be right by your side - snuggled against your leg .. and please, save a spot in bed for me too ! If you're too busy, I am also great at entertaining myself - especially if you have a window and a birdfeeder. I'm just a very content little girl !

You may notice from my picture that I have a 'notch' in my left ear ... that's because I was trapped when I was a young kitten. When they spayed me, they also marked my ear because they thought I would have to be released back outside. Imagine their surprise when I turned out to be friendly and rubbed my head against theirs. I started to purr and give quiet meows, to thank them for taking such great care of me and to ask for more attention !

Many people would call Callie a calico. In reality she's a 'torbie'. A torbie is a tortoiseshell tabby. I'm sure you can easily see her tortoiseshell coloring but can you spot her tabby stripes? Needless to say she's a beautiful kitten!

Callie is shyer and more reserved than most other kittens. She needs to go to a home that will love her and be patient with her while she adjusts. I think Callie would enjoy a home with another cat or kitten in it.

While she starts out shy and reserved she does like to be held and will even fall asleep in your lap!

Cedar is a medium haired Tortoiseshell or "Tortie". I'm sure you can tell from her pictures she's a stunning little girl!

Cedar and her siblings Juniper and Forrest were rescued when they were close to 8 weeks old. They came in scared but have made a lot of progress.

Cedar is the most reserved of the group (not overly surprising she is after all a tortie - a coloring known for having their own plan) . She does like to be pet and will sit on your lap and let you hold her. However she needs to go to a family that will be patient with her while she adjusts to a new home. She's not a fully confident outgoing kitten....yet. However she's got it in her to be a total love once she feels comfortable with a new place and people.

Cedar is the 'look before you leap' type. She likes to watch her brothers - to see how new adventures/ experiences go for them - before she 'takes the plunge' so to speak.

Cedar is great with other kitties but would probably run from small children.

Many families will be tempted to adopt Cedar based on her looks. We really want just the right family for this wonderful little girl. One with lots of patience and love. Cedar will require a slower than usual introduction to a new household. Obviously we'll walk the lucky family through it step by step!

One of the first things you will notice about me is how very silky and black my fur is - I just have a small white locket at my throat and pretty yellow eyes. When I was very small, I was one of over thirty kitties that an elderly couple was trying to care for....it became a bit too much for them, so I was trapped and given to my foster mom.

Although I still tend to have a quiet nature, I love attention and playtime. My favorite is to play hide and seek from under the bed and jump out at your feet as you walk by. I also love to curl up by your legs at night, have some one-on-one petting time and fall asleep by you. I have the cutest little squeaky meow that I use to remind you I'm ready for some cuddle time - and your biggest reward will be the loud puurrrr you hear, especially when you scratch my ears and head.

My mom says that I am one of the sweetest kittens she's ever had. Won't you come love on me and give me my forever home ??

Look at this beautiful Grey cat! Her name is Crystal. She is a very loving cat. She loves to walk back and forth and rub up against toes and feet when you sit in a chair. You can scratch her head or pet her as much as you want. She enjoys playing with cat toys (I chase this rubber ball in a round thing and spin it over and over) and gets along well with other cats. She has not quite grown into being a lap cat, but has not had much time to explore people’s laps either.

She loves to look outside, or rub on any catnip toy! Often you can find Crystal looking through the railing of the steps at our house. Her cute little face looking over the edge as people and animals walk by. She is good with kids but is not fond of being picked up and held for long. If you are looking for a loving, sweet cat that will love you back, she is the one!

Have you checked out my 2 different eye colors? Doesn't that give me a unique look? Well here's the good news - that's not even the best thing about me - I'm a total love to boot!

I just adore affection - go ahead pet me! You don't need to stop just keep going. I love that....lots and lots of attention just for me!

Did I mention I'm a Princess? It's true and as a Princess I need lots of attention (oh did I mention that before?)! I like other kitties as long as they respect my princess status. Sometimes I need to hiss at them to remind them of "who" I am. Of course I adore the idea of being an only kitty and having all of the love/ attention lavished upon me.

Can you imagine someone actually left me behind in an apartment? What were they thinking?

If you'd like to take me home and love on me all of the time - just let these nice Hobbes House Folks know! I don't show very well at adoptathons ( kind of scary to me) but they can arrange a private meet and greet in my foster home - there you can see what a wonderful kitty I am!

Juliet - a beautiful name for a beautiful cat! Juliet is just stunning with her beautiful soft medium length fur and her adorable coloring. But she's not just another pretty face - she's a love too!

Juliet came into us pregnant and wanting nothing more than tons of affection and nice place to live. She gave birth to handsome "Mickey Mouse" and his sweet little sister "Minnie Mouse". Off topic we were going to go with a "Lost" theme with the kitten names "Jack" and "Kate" but Mickey's unique face changed that plan!

Juliet adores attention - she is 'all about' being loved on and even picked up and held. Juliet gets along really well with kids. She's a nurturing soul - we separated her from her kittens (so they could wean) and let her hang out with some other older kittens. She's their mother figure. Juliet is OK with other adult kitties but would love to be an only cat and have all of the human attention focused on her!

If you are looking for a beautiful loving girl - Juliet just might be the love of your life!

I have such a sweet face... don’t you just love the white locket on my throat ?! I am a beautiful girl who will follow you around so that you can give me lots of attention. I really love gentle head rubs, kisses, full body pets, sitting on your lap and sleeping with you! Nap time or night time, I'm your snuggle girl and love to 'make biscuits' on your lap. How could you resist petting me ... my fur feels like black silk ?! I really am a 'people' kitty and will show you how much I love you by my loud purrrrr! I am not overly fond of other kitties, except for my brother, Martell .. I just don't like the competition for your affection. I do get along great with dogs though - at my foster mom's I actually do 'wheelies' to rub up against their black lab.

I'm also all about play time - catnip toys, chasing a bell ball and my all time favorite, running after a laser light. Don't you have a spot in your house for me - I'm such a love of a girl !

I know, you must be saying “that’s a big cat “! In my previous home I was free fed and ate all day long. As much as I enjoyed it, I am now in the process of dropping weight. I have lost 2 lbs. and working on losing more. I love living in my foster home. I get to run around the house and play with all the toys! I have little toy mice, this thing with a feather on it, and something with a mouse on a stick!

I LOVE attention. I lay down and wait for humans to pet and rub me. There is nothing better than having humans rub my face, head and back. I get along great with other cats and don’t mind being held at all.

When human companions are not around I love to jump up in a cat climber and look at the window. Don’t let my size fool you, I can get around and jump high!

A side note - we rescued Little Cloud when she was a tiny 2 week old bottle feeding kitten! She was adopted as a kitten and then returned to us (the young girl in the house 'lost interest' ). Bottle fed kitties are really wonderful cats!

Let me be blunt - I'm looking for a lap to fill. That's right, I want someone to let me sit in their lap and love on me. I love to be petted and have my head scratched. Sometimes I'll rub up against you to remind you that I need petting.

I'm an adorable small cat, with a really slender tail - it kind of gives me a unique look :-)

I really like dogs (even the crazy 50 lb puppy that lives in my house) and I like other kitties - even if they're in 'my' lap. You see I'm a sweet kitty that doesn't want to cause any trouble. If someone else is sitting in my human's lap I'll just curl up next to the other kitty or right up against my human's leg. Anything to be close to people.

I like everyone even kids! So if you've got an empty lap that needs filling ... look no further - I'm your gal!

Cute Nacoma looks like a 'bobtail' or a 'manx' in fact she's neither at least not by birth. She came in with a severely injured tail that had to be amputated. As a result she's got an adorable little tiny tail. It's SO cute!

You can see by her pictures (I think she should be a model - she's so cute and photogenic!) she's got stunning markings! But that's not all.... Nacoma has a great personality as well. She loves attention and will purr like mad to 'reward' you! She enjoys being picked up and held and even cuddling. Of course she's a kitten too so she loves to pounce and play - either with you or with other kittens.

Hello. My name is Rosella (but you can call me Rosie) and I am the sweetest kitty ever. I am a very special girl. I have 4 white paws and a white chest and tummy...but the rest of me is a diluted torbie - I am truly beautiful!

I LOVE attention. I have very loud purrs and I will snuggle very closely with you. I have also started a new trick with my foster mom that I like to do...sometimes when she's sitting on the couch, I like to sit on her shoulders and get my face just as close to hers as I possibly can. I will even give you sweet nibble kisses ever so gently just to tell you how much I like you. Naturally I'm a lap kitty - I like nothing better than to cuddle up on you.

This next part is kind of sad ... when I was found, my collar was growing into the fur on my neck - I was abandoned, alone and hungry...but still so very sweet! As you can see by my 'pink ribbon', I am a survivor of cancer. During my spay surgery, they found a small mass, and although they don't really call it breast cancer when found in kitties, that's what it was. The surgeon did a great job in getting the tumor ... it was on the small side (less than 1 cm) which is good for my prognosis. They also verified that the area around the tumor was cancer free, so they were sure they removed it all. Although they can't guarantee that the cancer won't return, the fact that it was small and completely removed do side in my favor.

I will make you a wonderful new friend and companion. Please give me a chance. You will be so glad you did!

Beautiful Snickerdoodle is a stunning tortie. She's almost golden in color! Snickerdoodle has a long body and tail giving you the long lean impression. She has all black whiskers except for one white one. I know it sounds like a strange thing to mention but it's really quite cute to see that single white whisker on her !

Snickerdoodle isn't just a beautiful kitty - she's got a great personality to match. Snickers (as we call her around the house) is a smart kitty she's figured out how to position herself to get the most attention. She loves to be petted and will make sure she's in a good 'spot' so you can conveniently love on her. If I'm petting another kitty she'll run on over to join in. If I'm walking around the bedroom she'll hop up onto the bed so it's 'easier' for me to pet her. Smart girl!

Snickers loves other kitties and likes to be loved on by anyone with a hand. She is however a little slower to adjust to new surroundings. Once she feels at home you can see what a love she is. Sometimes kitties that adjust slower make the best friends!!

So if you have room in your heart and your home for this sweet girl - let us know! We'd love to introduce you.

Hello, my name is Snow White. I have two brothers Hocus Pocus and Abracadabra. If you're looking for a pair of kittens - Hocus Pocus and I make a stunning couple!

As you can see from my pictures I'm quite photogenic! I'm all white except for this funny little gray smudge on my head. My foster mom says it looks like someone took a paintbrush and just ran it across one time by accident! I think it gives me a really unique look!

I'm more than just a beautiful kitten. I'm fun, playful and affectionate too. A lot of white kitties seem to be on they shy side - not me! I love attention! In fact I adore being picked up and held. Hold me, love me then let's play!!!

I get along well with other kitties and have been introduced to dogs. Kids are pretty cool to hang out with - they like to play with me which is GREAT!

Tika is a stunning dilute calico who just loves attention. From day one she was a total love! When she came in she was very pregnant – she’s done a great job raising her babies and now she’s ready for a home of her own!

Tika likes to be picked up and held and will hang out with you endlessly if you love on her! Tika will even let kids pick her up and carry her around. She’s just a great cat!

As you can see from her pictures Topaz is just too cute! Her beautiful tortie coloring and her tabby stripes give her that unique torbie look.

Topaz came into our program as a young kitten. She loves attention - anytime I go near her she stands up and wants me to pet her. In fact she loves it so much her long slender tail quivers with excitement and she rewards me with a wonderful PURR! Topaz seeks out attention when she really wants it - she'll hop up onto my computer desk and walk back and forth while I pet her. And if I'm going upstairs she'll position herself at the bottom so I can pet her and then when I start to walk up the stairs she'll run up ahead of me and stop at the top so I can pet her some more.

Topaz loves other kitties and gets along well with our dog. She will compete with other kitties for your attention.

Topaz is a love of a kitty who needs a home that will appreciate her for who she is - a cat who loves affection and wants (even craves) to be pet but not picked up or held.
