Kid-Friendly Cats for Adoption in Macon, GA: 30 Cats Good with Children

Kid-Friendly Cats up for adoption near Macon, GA

Rescues and shelters within 100 miles of Macon have 69 kid-friendly cats up for adoption. Here are the 30 newest, each with photos, their story and how to reach the rescue looking after them.

Every cat on this page has been marked by their rescue as good with children, usually because they've lived with kids in a foster home.

1. Primrose

Kitten · Male · Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · 59 mi from Macon

Thankfully someone scooped these orphans up and made their odds ever in their favor, as they were brought to a local shelter and pulled by our rescue to bottle feed - they were in rough shape, encrusted in flea dirt, and with a respiratory infection brewing. Some meds, formula, and love and these babies are absolutely thriving little competitors. Primrose is the smallest of the crew, and while she is small she is mighty. She is posted here with her littermates for pre-adoption, as she didn't make weight for her surgery yet but will be going this week.

This precious girl was found at a local Walmart by one of our boys in blue and brought in to animal control at about 2 weeks old , eyes just opened and absolutely covered in fleas. She was bottle raised, and is now learning to play with other kitties her age. Wallie is a social and curious girl who loves to play and get all the attention.

6. Corona

Kitten · Female · Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · 59 mi from Macon

This dynamic duo was found by a local resident at about a week old, mama didn’t make it back to them, so they reached out to the community for help and the babies made their way to us to be bottle raised. Around the time they would have been born, there was a solar eclipse happening, so they were named Eclipse and Corona. Corona is the blue girl, reminiscent of the lighter halo visible around the eclipsed sun. They are extremely playful, and are either found bouncing wildly around and wrestling, or snuggled up to nap and recharge for the next play session. Corona is probably the slightly more outgoing of the two, she’s always at the front of the line investigating whether you’re here to shower her with love or food.

Around the time they would have been born, there was a solar eclipse happening, so they were named Eclipse and Corona. Eclipse is the solid black boy resembling total darkness during an eclipse. They are extremely playful, and are either found bouncing wildly around and wrestling, or snuggled up to nap and recharge for the next play session. Eclipse is very sweet, though a tad more reserved than his sister until he recognizes friend or foe.

8. Beckham

Kitten · Male · Domestic Long Hair (long coat) · 59 mi from Macon

Beckham is one lucky little dude who might have used one of his nine lives already just trying to survive. He was found one night in the middle of the road near a soccer complex at about 5 weeks old, eyes crusted shut, unable to see the cars whizzing. Thankfully one of our own was one of those cars, and she was able to get turned around and scoop him up before he got hit. Once he recovered and started to hold his eyes open, we could see that one eye was back to normal but the other had severely swollen conjunctiva, where we couldn’t even yet see the eye. Antibiotic drops and blood serum have healed it remarkably, and while there will always be cloudiness in that eye, it is evident he still has some useful vision that was preserved.

It doesn’t phase him in the least, and Beckham is an active, playful, and entertaining boy looking for someone to engage with and burn off all that athletic energy!

This tiny white tiger tends to hang back and observe before jumping into the fun, preferring to watch for a few moments before choosing the right moment to join in the play. She is calm and can be reserved when first meeting new people, but give her a little time to warm up and her gentle nature shines.

We would love to see Mia adopted together with one of her siblings: Maverick, Merlin, or Millie. She has been spayed, combo tested negative, received her fvrcp and rabies vaccines, dewormed, and microchipped.

Molly is beautiful, sweet, gentle, affectionate, loving and COMPLETELY DEAF. She would do best in a calm home without small children or dogs. Understandably, she can be startled by children and dogs since she cannot hear them approaching.

Molly feels happiest when she can look to her babies for cues about things that are happening around her, so we would like to see her adopted together with one of her babies: Maverick, Merlin, Mia, or Millie.

Molly has been such an amazing momma to her kittens, it's time to find her furever home who will understand her special needs and give her the love she deserves.

Adult (2 years 11 months) · Female · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 45 mi from Macon

"Courtesy Post" This pet is not in the custody of Street Paws. We are assisting a family with placing their pet to help the pet find a suitable home.

WINNIE: Part Cat. Part Parakeet. All Heart.

Hi, I’m Winifred, but you can call me Winnie! I’m a young orange girl looking for a home with sunny windows, cozy laps, and a human who doesn’t mind occasionally doubling as a perch. Yes, I like sitting on shoulders. Why should birds have all the fun?

Read more about Winifred

My favorite activities include climbing cat trees, investigating boxes, supervising the world from a window, and perfecting the art of sunbathing. I’ve got plenty of playful, kitten-like energy—but when it’s time to recharge, your lap might just be my favorite spot.

There’s one little thing you should know: I like to take introductions slowly. New places and new feline friends can feel a little overwhelming at first. Give me patience, a gentle welcome, and time to settle in, and you’ll get to watch my curious, affectionate personality blossom. Think of it as earning your way into a very exclusive friendship!

I’d especially love a home with another cat who could become my buddy, with time for us to get acquainted at our own pace.

Have a sunny window, a little patience, and an available shoulder? You might be my purrfect person.

Adoptions are generally limited to an approximately 150-mile radius of Locust Grove, Georgia. Exceptions may be considered under certain circumstances.

The adoption fee for all cats is $125. Each cat receives:

Age-appropriate vaccinations
Spay or neuter surgery
FeLV/FIV testing

Chip, Tiny Explorer, Full-Time Sidekick

Chip has been through more than most, but you’d never know it by the way she carries herself. After being rescued from a house fire where she and other cats were left behind, Chip decided life was still meant to be lived fully, and she does exactly that every single day.

She’s confident, social, affectionate, and full of personality. The kind of kitten who doesn’t wait for life to come to her, she walks right into it.

And honestly… she’d probably tell you that herself:

Hi. I’m Chip.
I’ll be the one greeting you at the door, yes, every time. You’re welcome.

Read more about Chip

I don’t really do the whole ‘hiding under the couch’ thing. I prefer a strong entrance. Tail up, little strut, tiny meow… make eye contact… you get it.

People? Love them. Cats? Also love them.
Honestly, I’m trying to be friends with everyone.
I’m what some call a little shadow. I prefer devoted sidekick.

If you’re walking to the kitchen, I’m coming. If you’re folding laundry, I’m supervising.
If you’re exploring the house, I’ll be exploring with you. I like to know what you’re doing at all times, not because I’m nosy… because I’m invested.

I take my job as Professional Explorer very seriously.

New box? Inspecting it. Cabinet opened? Investigating. Mysterious lizard in the projector? Still tracking the case. I also have the cutest little meow, which I use strategically.

My fur is extremely soft , I’ve been told this is important information.

I love toys, I love people, I love other cats, and I fully intend to befriend every living being in my vicinity.

Anyway, if you’re looking for a confident kitten with personality, curiosity, excellent greeting skills, and strong friendship goals… I’m available!

Adopting a cat with children in Macon

Bring the whole family to meet the cat before you adopt, and ask the rescue how the cat behaves around children your kids' ages.

Teach children to let the cat come to them, to stroke gently, and to leave the cat alone while it's eating, sleeping or using the litter box. Give the cat a high or quiet spot to retreat to.

Relaxed adult cats are often a better match for young children than kittens, which scratch and nip while they play.
