Only Cats

Some kitties 'have' to be around other cats, some are independent enough to go 'either way'. Still others would really like to be the 'star' of the household and be an 'only' cat. The cats on this page would really enjoy being the center of attention. Do you have the right home for them?

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.

I adore being held; especially leaning on your shoulder - anything as long as I'm in your arms! I'll also rub around your legs and curl up next to you, looking to have my head and shoulders rubbed - I'm a real love.

In case you haven't noticed I have wonderful soft silky fur (even if I do say so myself)

I'm called BobTale because well, I have a Bobtail but I wasn't born that way so I'm "Bob with a Tale". And don't worry my tail was injured when I was younger, but it's okay...it doesn't hurt me. And it doesn't look 'icky' but if you run your hand down it (go ahead I don't mind) you can feel it's rather twisted and obviously a lot shorter than it should be.

I'd love to be an only kitty - lots of attention just for me. But I do like other kitties they're fun to play with. There are dogs living in my foster home - they're OK but I don't play with them because I've got other foster kitties and humans (!) to play with (that is when I'm not 'busy' lounging around). Yup, I'm a laid back boy who just loves to nap on the bed. Come on by and pet me or rub my tummy - I'm all about that plan. Want to pick me up and cuddle for a bit ? I'd love that!

Hey hey hey…. Look at me!!! My name is Charlie. I am a beautiful all black cat that LOVES to be pet. You may not see it here, but in my foster home (where I am more comfortable) I follow my parents around and beg for them to rub me. Once they start I roll on my back and have them rub my face, chest, back and stomach! I start to purr and will stay there forever. You should hear my purr, it is so loud…. I love attention! I am very much a cat that likes to be next to my owner. I do well with kids but I am not a big fan of other cats. I love to sleep next to you on the bed or lay between your legs on the couch. When my foster parents are not home, I lay in the sunlight or watch the birds out the window.

Domestic Short Hair - Black and White

Male

Estimated Date of Birth October 12, 2005

Hi there, my name is Claude. As you can see I am a big boy! I love to lay around and look outside at the birds.

I am a complete love and enjoy being loved on. You can scratch my back or rub my head and watch me roll over and purr. I can't get enough attention!! There is nothing more I enjoy than spending time with people and having us love each other. When I am ready I jump up and will lay in your lap to sleep a bit.

I like playing with other cats and am OK with dogs!

I'm a great companion, and will hang on your every word, purring affectionately. You can almost hear me purring from across the room!

I am a very sweet boy and just want a family to take me home. I will be your forever friend (and be glad to show you) if you would adopt me. Will you pet me and make me your best friend?

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

Domestic Medium Hair - Black and White

Female

Estimated Date of Birth 6/1/07

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 !

Little Cloud

Domestic Short Hair - Gray and White

Female

Estimated Date of Birth August 14, 2006

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!

Little Cloud is truly a wonderful companion who is in need of a family that will give her attention and love. She is not shy and will gladly greet people she does not know.

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!

Livingston

Domestic Short Hair - Gray and White

Male

Estimated Date of Birth June 6, 2007

I've been in rescue for some time now, and while I love each and every one of my fosters, some are just extra special to me. Livingston is just such a foster. He came in with 3 siblings all of whom adjusted more quickly than he did. Livingston was on the shy side. It's so amazing to see him today. He's gone from hiding behind the toilet to jumping on my lap while I'm on the computer and refusing to take no for an answer. I find myself loving on him simply stunned at how far he's come and trying to explain (to him) that I need to get the website updated ....to which he responds by helpfully sits on my computer table within easy petting range. Such a smart boy!

Livingston really likes to have his head scratched, his tummy rubbed and to be petted in general - he is 'all about' affection. In fact you'll often find him rubbing up against your legs 'hinting' for more lovin'! Expect lots of PURRING from this sweet boy. And he likes to be picked up and held - what more can you ask for in a kitty?!

Livingston will probably take longer than the average kitty to feel comfortable in a new home. He needs a family that is patient and willing to give him all of the time he needs to feel 'at home'. Livingston would prefer a home without small children. IMO he would run from them - a bit too active for his taste.

Livingston gets along well with other kitties, although I think he would be very happy as an only kitty. He's not afraid of our dog or puppy at all!

Are you the PURRfect home for this sweet handsome boy?

Marshmallow

Domestic Short Hair - Gray and White Tabby

Female

Estimated Date of Birth March 22, 2007

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!

Rosella

Domestic Short Hair - Dilute Torbie with White

Female

Date of Birth April 14, 2003

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!

Sir Hunter

Domestic Short Hair - Brown Tabby with White

Male

Estimated Date of Birth October 14, 2004

Hello, allow me to introduce myself I am "Sir Hunter". I was just 'Hunter' until I came into Hobbes House, they already had a Hunter in their program so I was knighted so to speak!

My former family was in the military - they were transferred overseas and couldn't take me with them :-( It's all a bit confusing to me. I like my foster home, but I do miss my family. My foster dad, Dan is a nice guy but he keeps taking me out to adoptathons and they're no fun!

So I'm searching for a new forever family. Let me tell you a bit about myself. I'm a great cat, if I do say so myself. I love attention, I'll purr quite happily when you are loving on me - I just adore being petted. I also love to rub my face against yours. Want to pick me up and carry me around - that's great - it means more attention for me!

I get along really well with people (of course) and other cats. My previous family had small children - they liked to pick me up and carry me around - which is fine by me. I like kids.

Overall I'm a very sweet boy, a total love in fact. So ... are you my future forever family? If so please hurry up and adopt me, my bags are packed and I'm ready to go home!
