7. Oreo

Adult · Female · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 11 mi from Imperial

Oreo has been an amazing momma more times than she needed to be. Worry no more! No more babies for this amazing 10-11 year old girl(as of 7/26/26). Oreo is a sweet affectionate girl, and would do best in a quieter home. She was a young stray kitty that was hanging around a home that recently had a new buyer. They decided to feed her, and unfortunately with this litter she got a not so great infection, and actually brought her babies to the home of her feeders, because she knew she needed help. So these people got help, momma had surgery, and is doing great!! Now she’s ready for a quiet loving home

13. Lucky

Kitten (4 months 21 days) · Male · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 16 mi from Imperial

Meow, and hello out there! My name is Lucky and I am from a litter of 3 kittens found without our mom when we were very young. We have been raised by humans (and a foster mama cat) and consequently love people! I am around 4.5 months old as of early September. I am a purr machine when my foster mom touches me! When I am not causing chaos or wrestling my siblings, I love to just hang out on my foster mom’s lap while I recharge my batteries. I also love my foster mom’s 7-year-old boy kitty. I would like to be adopted with one of my siblings (Spark and Lucy) or as a companion for a young cat looking for a wrestling buddy. All 3 of us are still learning that humans think our tiny teeth are sharp, so no young children right now, please.

Bobby is a confident, easygoing, and quietly affectionate tabby. He doesn’t need to zoom around the house to prove he's happy.

Adopting a cat in Imperial

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.
