Young (1 year) · Female · Tortoiseshell / Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 77 mi from Gulfport






Meet Snickerdoodle the Queen Mother Snickerdoodle has a story that began with uncertainty but is headed toward a bright future. She was one of two young mother cats abandoned alongside a group of kittens in a cage outside a veterinary clinic. Because both moms were caring for the kittens, it's impossible to know which kittens belonged to which mother. What we do know is that Snickerdoodle helped make sure every baby had a chance at a better life. Snickerdoodle is a sweet, affectionate young cat who is ready to leave motherhood behind and enjoy being pampered herself. She loves attention and has a gentle, loving personality that makes her a wonderful companion. Of course, no description of Snickerdoodle would be complete without mentioning her adorable "snooty" side! Some of her photos make her look like she's judging everyone around her, but don't let that expression fool you. Behind that slightly regal look is a sweet girl who enjoys affection and would love a family of her own. After helping raise kittens through a difficult beginning, Snickerdoodle deserves a forever home where she can be the center of attention for a change. If you're looking for a beautiful young cat with personality, charm, and just a hint of cattitude, Snickerdoodle may be the perfect addition to your family. Come meet Snickerdoodle and discover why this sweet girl has everyone smiling with her glamorous, slightly snooty expressions! Please remember: Unless otherwise specified, all our kittens and cats are strictly indoor pets.

17. Spirit
Young (4 months 28 days) · Male · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 77 mi from Gulfport








On a warm evening at the
end of summer
, a wire cage was quietly left on the front porch of a veterinary clinic. Inside was a huddle of confused,
three-month-old kittens
, abandoned under the stars. Among them was
Spirit
, a little fighter who was about to prove exactly how he earned his name.
Spirit was breathtakingly beautiful. He looked like he was wearing a pristine, snow-white suit capped with a sleek,
stormy-grey cape
brushed perfectly across his back. But it was his eyes that caught everyone's attention. When he was a tiny baby, a severe infection had swept through his nest. While his body recovered, the illness left his left eye permanently clouded and discolored.
Yet, rather than taking away from his beauty, it only enhanced it. Paired with the clear, icy sky-blue of his right eye, his unique gaze gave him the mystical look of a tiny, resilient prince.
Now
five months old
, Spirit has completely outgrown his rough start. He is healthy, entirely pain-free, and bursting with affectionate kitten energy. He doesn't know he looks any different than his siblings; he only knows that he loves to purr, play, and climb into warm laps. Spirit started his life left on a clinic porch, but his resilient heart is ready for a beautiful new chapter in a forever home.
Please remember: Unless otherwise specified, all our kittens and cats are strictly indoor pets.

Young (4 months 22 days) · Female · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 83 mi from Gulfport



Marleigh female 15 weeks
This girl needs a special home. She came in having severe seizures that were treated due to an underlined condition. She is healthy and ready to go, no more seizures, but there was a little brain damage from them so she’s just a bit slow. She acts like a normal cat, but very, very mild temperament and has no issues eating drinking using the litter box. She just doesn’t play and have the hyper activity that are normal kitten wood. I actually think she has some peripheral vision loss.
She has been spayed, combo tested for feline leukemia/feline aids, up to date on vaccinations, wormed and flea treated.

24. Pinto
Young (1 year) · Male · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 77 mi from Gulfport





Meet Pinto — Your New Best Friend!
Pinto’s story started in a heartbreaking way — he was dumped out of a car at a park near a busy street. His rescuer witnessed the entire thing and immediately stepped in to save him. Despite what he’s been through, Pinto’s spirit is nothing short of incredible. Pinto is a love bug in every sense. The moment you walk toward him, he starts purring — loudly — as if he’s saying “thank you” for every bit of kindness. He adores attention, seeks out affection, and melts into anyone willing to give him pets. He’s grateful, gentle, and eager to bond with a family who will cherish him. Pinto is extremely affectionate, social, and trusting. Ideal for families, singles, anyone wanting a cuddly companion. Despite his rough start, Pinto is healthy, sweet, and ready for a safe, loving home. Pinto would thrive in a home where he gets plenty of love and attention. He’s the kind of cat who wants to be near his people and will reward you with nonstop purrs and affection.
Pinto is the definition of resilience and gratitude. He’s not just looking for a home — he’s looking for a family. If you want a cat who will make you feel appreciated every single day, Pinto is your guy. Please remember: Unless otherwise specified, all our kittens and cats are strictly indoor pets.

Every rescue in our care receives comprehensive vetting, which includes:
A combo test
Deworming
Spay/neuter procedures
Vaccinations
Microchipping
We take every possible step to ensure their health and happiness, giving them the best chance at a long, fulfilling life.
While we do everything in our power to provide healthy rescues, it's important to note that some animals may have genetic health conditions we cannot predict (since we don’t have their family history). Additionally, medical tests—though highly reliable—can occasionally yield false negatives. Unexpected health issues may arise, either before or after adoption, but thanks to our thorough vetting process, the likelihood of a long and healthy life is very high.
Additional adoption details:
Transportation fees, if applicable, vary based on distance and expenses.
Home checks may be conducted.
Our standard tax-deductible adoption donation is $188.
For special breeds, uniquely colored, or exceptionally adorable rescues, we may request a higher donation to help cover vet expenses.
Can't adopt? Consider donating, sponsoring, or volunteering! Every form of support makes a difference.

25. Tortillini
Adult (2 years 1 month) · Male · Domestic Medium Hair / Tabby / Mixed (medium coat) · 77 mi from Gulfport






Meet Tortillini!
Tortillini is a handsome 2-year-old medium-haired tabby with white and absolutely stunning green eyes. But as beautiful as he is, his personality is what really makes him special. Tortillini is a total love bug who adores people and soaking up attention. If you're looking for a cat who wants to be your buddy, this boy is ready to apply for the position!
Tortillini was originally adopted as a kitten, but unfortunately, he found himself back with the rescue after being found a good distance from home. Thankfully, he was microchipped, and the clinic that found him was able to scan his chip and get him safely back to us.
Read more about Tortillini
There is one important thing to know about Tortillini: he is not good with other cats and needs to be the only cat in his home. He has plenty of love to give his people, so he doesn't need feline roommates to keep him company. He would love a home where he can be the center of attention and have all the love to himself.
Tortillini is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, tested negative for FIV/FeLV, and is on parasite prevention. His adoption fee is $188.
Please remember: Unless otherwise specified, all our kittens and cats are strictly indoor pets.

29. Kali
Young (1 year 1 month) · Female · Bombay / American Shorthair / Mixed (short coat) · 77 mi from Gulfport



Kali’s story is one of quiet bravery. She came to us young, scared, and already pregnant — a baby carrying babies. But she rose to the moment with the kind of devotion only a young mama can show. She protected her kittens, nurtured them, and gave them every bit of strength she had.
Her kittens have now grown and moved on, and Kali is ready for her own chance at safety and love.
Kali is gentle, affectionate, and deeply deserving of a peaceful indoor home. She’s still young, still playful, and still hopeful. She wants a person who will cherish her not just for the mother she was, but for the wonderful companion she is.
If you believe in second chances, Kali is ready for hers.
Please remember: Unless otherwise specified, all our kittens and cats are strictly indoor pets.

Meet Phoebe
Phoebe is a beautiful 5-year-old long-haired tuxedo girl who is looking for a very special home. She is a calm, quiet girl who truly thrives in a peaceful environment. Phoebe would do best in a home without children, or with older children who are gentle, calm, and respectful of her space.

Why adopt an adult cat in Gulfport
An adult cat's personality is fully formed, so the rescue can tell you how they are with people, other pets and busy households. Many have lived in foster homes and are used to family life.
Grown cats are calmer and need less supervision than kittens, which suits people who work long hours or have young children.
