4. Luna Grace
Young (1 year) · Female · Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · 33 mi from Chelsea



This beautiful girl, Luna Grace, is approximately one year old and has the sweetest soul. She is incredibly friendly, loves people, and is always happy to make new human friends. No hiding when visitors come over - she welcomes everyone.
Luna Grace’s favorite place is curled up on someone's lap soaking up love and attention. She’s not particularly interested in running around playing with toys, she’d rather spend her time relaxing and enjoying your company.
Luna Grace wasn’t immediately comfortable meeting another cat so a home with other cats would require slow, patient introductions.

6. Noira
Kitten (7 months) · Female · Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · 33 mi from Chelsea




Meet Noira, a charming young kitty dressed in a gorgeous, sleek black coat. She has plenty to say and loves being close to her people. If you leave the room—or leave her on her own—she may call out to let you know she’d much rather be with you!
Noira is especially people-focused and seems more interested in human companionship than in spending time with other cats. Her idea of the perfect evening is settling in for a cozy nap right on your chest, where she can be close and soak up all the affection. When she’s content and purring, she may even drool a little—one more sign that she’s completely relaxed.

7. Whisky
Young (2 years) · Male · Domestic Medium Hair (medium coat) · 33 mi from Chelsea










Meet Whisky - He was found outside a kind woman's home, waiting at her door day after day, hoping to be let inside. It was clear he wanted a home of his own, and with winter approaching, we couldn't bear the thought of him spending another day outside. So we rescued him!
Read more about Whisky
With his gorgeous, unique markings, extra long whiskers and eye brows, (thus the name) one black nostril and what looks like black eyeliner that a rock star would wear, Whisky is tooooo cute! Check out the pictures! He wants to be where you are and will follow you any where. One adorable thing he does is he loves to stretch out and he's really long...and his tail is super long too. Underneath the handsome face is a sweet, special boy who just wants a home and to feel safe and loved.
Now in his foster home Whisky is discovering the joys of being a cat! He's learning to play with toys, and watching him figure it out is absolutely adorable. He especially loves being pet behind his ears and neck, and as he learns to trust you and feels safe, this handsome boy will become the ultimate lap cat.
Whisky is loving just how wonderful life indoors can be, and he deserves someone who will give him the kindness, and love he's been waiting for. Will you be his family and give this special boy his forever home?

9. Rayven
Adult (11 years 6 months) · Male · Domestic Medium Hair (medium coat) · 33 mi from Chelsea






This lovely 11-1/2 year old boy is a total cuddle-bug. He was surrendered to us after his companion human passed away. He will let you know when he wants pets by head butting you and chirp-purring for attention.
He’s been an only cat for most of his life, and should be in a home where he is the sole pet. A quiet home with one or two adults would be ideal. He needs someone who can make his golden years loved and cared-for.

11. Kelly(must be adopted w/Konnie
Kitten (6 months) · Male · Domestic Short Hair / Bombay / Mixed (short coat) · 33 mi from Chelsea




Kelly and his sibling Konnie were rescued by a gentleman shortly after their mama was hit by a car leaving them orphans. He could not keep them, but he took them in out of the cold so they would be safe from harm until he could find a rescue to take them. After hearing their story and meeting them, we took them in and had them spay/neutered and vaccinated. Within 2-3 days these precious siblings showed their sweet, gentle and playful personalities. Suprisingly, Kelly is just a bit more shy than his sister, but with love and patience he will blossom. They enjoy their toys and are both purr machines when picked up. If you are ready for a purr-fect pair of good natured kittens, look no further. These two are ready made for any loving family.
