Daisy and her four kittens were found outside in St. Peter's, MO. They were in dire need of help when a woman rounded them up and found placement at Country Acres Rescue. Daisy came to us in bad shape. She had an eye infection, worms and a serious Upper Respiratory infection, poor baby! CAR quickly got her vetted and on several different antibiotics. Daisy is healthy and happy. She loves watching people walk by her window, so curious. She is a little nervous of new people, but she is learning to trust our staff and volunteers more and more with each day. She is a gorgeous Torbi cat looking for her second chance at life!

Hi, my name is Ruffle a
nd I'm about 6 months old. I was found stray with my 2 siblings and surrendered to Bond County Humane Society so we can find loving furever homes. I have beautiful calico fur. When I first came to the shelter, I was really scared of everything and everyone. Eventually I learned that people were great for cuddles, pets, and especially food! I might take a little while to get used to you, but when I do I will want to sit on your lap. Oh...I do like playing with any other cats, so if you have a feline buddy for me to hang out with, that would be a wonderful bonus!

Hi there! My name is Walker. I was just a tiny baby, barely a pound, when I was discovered in the hood of a car at a salvage shop. A kind man found me and took me to a foster home. Now, I'm a happy and healthy 5-month-old kitten. My favorite thing is to snuggle up next to my human. I also enjoy playing with my toys and taking naps because I'm growing up. I've been fully vetted and am ready to find my forever home. You can meet me anytime at my foster home in Maryland Heights. I am FIV +

King Arthur is a sweet boy, who is about 2 years old and looking for his family.

She has extra toes and an extra helping of adorable!Emmy’s story is one of those that makes you wonder how she ever ended up in a pound in the first place. She was set to be euthanized at a local pound, so we snatched her up and brought her home.

Moochie — Ready to Retire from Being a Dresser Cat Moochie spent much of his life as a community cat. Then he disappeared.He wasn't seen for about a month, and when he finally showed up again, the people who knew him thought he was dying. They took him to their local animal control, Heartland was contacted, and Moochie came into our care. He was skinny. His fur was yellow. He was depressed and just seemed to have given up.Once he was with us, we discovered he also had cat lice. His coat was in such terrible condition that off it came—Moochie was shaved completely naked. And so began the recovery of one very sad, very naked cat.

Would you consider offering a cat like SeaSmoke a chance at forever? She is waiting!

My name is Marmalade. I was found hanging out in a feral colony during a "fixing" event. I turned on my charm while I was waiting for neuter surgery and the caretakers realized that I am adoptable. I crave attention and am willing to get in a lap to get attention! As of March 17, 2026, I am approximately For more information email my foster dad or send adoption applications to strayhavenfeline@gmail.com.Shortly after my arrival to this rescue group, it was noticed that I had a bulge on my side. The vet said it was a body wall hernia most likely from a bite from another cat. During the surgery to repair the hernia, another smaller tear in the mesh was discovered that was definitely from a bite.

Bella is one of our young mommies! She raised adorable kittens very well (coming soon), and she is ready to be the center of attention. Bella is easygoing, but she has had it with other cats, and she is the only pet you need. So many kittens took it out of her! She also loves to greet her humans and is sweet natured with just a silly sprinkle of tortitude. It doesn’t hurt anything that she’s teeny and beautiful. Estimated at only two and fully vetted, Bella is all ready to start her life with a family!

Becca, and her babies - Judd & Agnes - were humanely trapped by a Country Acres' staff member. This sweet feline family were found roaming her Mom's property in Pacific, MO.

Becca is super affectionate, loving and just one of the sweetest cats at CAR. Becca is very interested in whatever you are doing - she engages you. Becca plays with her toys in her room independantly, it is so endearing to watch. Becca would be the most wonderful cat to a loving family.

Reva needs a little help and patience. We know she is a sweet cat because we spent a lot of time with her one-on-one in the intake area, even giving her medicine for typical parasite control. She was always calm and relaxed and had a very comforting demeanor--in fact, her kittens are the ultra-social litter, mostly dilute torties, with R names! She raised those babies to be so friendly, but Reva herself is having a little trouble getting used to a community room. This honestly isn't a huge surprise when it comes to cats in general, as most need a gradual transition to any new situation. It's amazing most of our cats do so well when it's not really practical for us to slowly introduce them! So Reva is feeling a little shy right now and doesn't always want to come out, though she is not fighting or causing any problems. She is just taking things at her own pace, and we hope a bit of time will help her adjust so that this description can be updated! Before you meet beautiful Reva, you must know that she's had hard times in her life and she may not crawl right into your lap. . . but you also must know that she does like people, and she just needs time and stability to shine and to bond with the human she has always dreamed of. Would you be willing to take a chance on her? Could you find a place in your heart for her to get comfortable and share her purrs forever?

Handsome Norman is a favorite among his human friends and ready for a beautiful life! How such a cat came to be on his own, we have no idea, but we find all kinds. It is typical for cats to take some time to adjust to new situations, but after a short while, Norman found himself strolling the adoption floor comfortable and happy. (It probably helped that his people were so enthusiastic about offering him extra love!) He is a fairly chill cat, but that doesn't mean he isn't up for a play session if engaged! He likes to cuddle and love, and is always trying to get to his humans. Norman had a bad URI when we found him, and his eyes have a unique look at the time because we are treating an eyelid condition. They are doing much better than they were!! Norman does not act for one second like he's uncomfortable, feels sorry for himself, or even knows he looks different, which he barely does. He can see just fine. What he sees is that cats are nice friends and people are perfect for loving and being loved!! What more could you ask for in a pet than that? Applying to meet Norman does not obligate you to adopt, but he is worth knowing.
