3. Nomad
Kitten (2 months 6 days) · Female · Tuxedo · 39 mi from Decatur




Teeny tiny Nomad earned her name well after riding 25 miles under a car before being rescued and safely secured! Thankfully her foster mom stepped up to care for her and she has grown leaps and bounds in the last few weeks. Still though, she loves car rides, adventures, and sneaking out of her secure space when no one is watching! She's always up for fun and attention from anyone available, and will accept snuggle time with the other cat or even dog in her foster home!

4. Wren
Kitten (6 months) · Female · Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · 41 mi from Decatur

Apply to meet Wren and see if you would like to give her the wonderful gift of home!

14. Piper
Kitten (4 months 29 days) · Female · Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · 41 mi from Decatur





Piper is a cute little tabbico ready to pipe right up and make your home more exciting! Her markings are very unique, with her inner eyeliner, signature M on her forehead, and wild-rabbit-like lower back. She has been the shyest of her litter, but she is doing great in foster and learning that people are fun! Piper loves the classic squeeze treats, and also feather toys, and these things are encouraging her to approach her foster mom. She just needs a little time and effort to form a deep bond with someone special. She would do well with her brother or one of her sisters (she has a special relationship with Pippa), or we have other kittens who could be a companion to her as well. The most important ingredient in her new life is you! Consider applying to meet Piper and see if she might be the newest member of your family.

Adopting a kitten in Decatur
Kittens usually go to their new homes from about eight weeks old, once they're eating on their own and have had their first vaccinations. Most rescues spay or neuter them before adoption, or include it in the fee.
Think about adopting two. Kittens raised together play with each other instead of your ankles and furniture, and many rescues charge less for a pair.
Kittens need more of your time than grown cats: several small meals a day, plenty of play, and a home with cords and small objects tidied away.
