4. Winnie

Kitten · Female · Domestic Short Hair · 36 mi from Wanamingo

Winnie is a beautiful white-and-gray young cat with a playful spirit. At less than a year old, she still has plenty of kitten energy and loves chasing toys, exploring, and playing with her feline friends.

Winnie can be a bit shy and may need some time to adjust to new people and surroundings. She isn't the type to rush into your lap on day one, but with patience, a calm environment, and a little understanding, she will continue to gain confidence and show her sweet personality.

Winnie gets along wonderfully with her feline companions and would likely thrive in a home with another friendly cat who can help her feel secure and show her the ropes.

Winnie is spayed, fully vetted, and ready to find a forever home where she can blossom at her own pace. If you're willing to give a shy young cat the time she needs, Winnie could be a wonderful addition to your family.

8. Razia

Adult (1 year 4 months) · Female · Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · 42 mi from Wanamingo

Razia arrived into our care as a (semi-)feral momma. Thankfully, she was young enough and sweet enough to adapt beautifully, over time, to not only living with humans but loving affection from humans. Razia has a huge motor and soaks up loving from those she knows and trusts. She is sweet, gentle, loving and gets along well with other felines. Razia is a year old. She's been spayed and vaccinated against rabies and distemper. Razia and her kittens tested negative for both FIV and feline leukemia.

(By the way, she isn't a fan of cameras.)

9. Shomo

Adult (2 years 10 months) · Male · Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · 42 mi from Wanamingo

Shomo is an absolutely amazing fella, so very good-natured. We don't know what trauma happened to him, but he came to the rescue needing his tail amputated, cognitively impaired, and needing help with his bladder and bowel. The dear boy simply cannot read others at all. He assumes the very best of absolutely everyone. (We use him to assess other felines as he does not react to their fear.) Shomo happily greets visitors at the door, and he loves everyone. The dear boy cannot resist crinkle bouncer toys, leaping high into the air to catch them. (He isn't the best at landing.)

Read more about Shomo

Shomo needs an extra special home as his bladder requires expressing at least every 12 hours. He has a difficult bladder to squeeze, and he isn't a huge fan of having that done. The dear boy needs someone with strong hands. He cannot urinate on his own. His bladder would rupture if not expressed. We keep his stools firm so that we can control his bowels as well, simply helping him empty his rectum when he urinates (by using external pressure).

This loving fella enjoys cuddling with felines and humans alike. He is available for adoption for $50.

Please note that Shomo is located in New Prague, MN.

Adopting a cat in Wanamingo

Most rescues ask you to fill in an application, meet the cat, and pay an adoption fee that usually covers spaying or neutering, vaccinations and a microchip. Many are foster-based, so you'll often meet your cat in a volunteer's home rather than a shelter.

Senior cats are often the calmest companions and the slowest to find homes. If you'd like a settled, affectionate cat, ask the rescues about their older residents.

Kittens go quickly, especially in spring and summer. If you've fallen for one, contact the rescue soon, and think about adopting two: young cats keep each other company and out of mischief.
