Sept. 2026 THOMASINA is one of the sweetest cats we have ever rescued!
Now she is also happy and healthy after successful dental surgery (and successfully completed fundraiser!) this past summer!

Read more about Thomasina

August 20, 2026 Terry shares that Thomasina’s surgery went well!
She lost most all of her teeth and 1 of her canines that was cracked. Thomasina was purring this evening when Terry was petting her. Updated fundraiser – we need $1,900 to cover the cost of this surgery and her brother, Thomas’s, vet checkup as well.

August 15, 2026 I noticed that THOMASINA was not responding to my petting her and had her head tucked down between her front paws! I knew something was wrong.

Our veterinarian, the
Sound Cat Veterinary Hospital
, worked her in for me on Aug. 14th and we learned that she needs FULL MOUTH EXTRACTIONS!

Her surgery this Thursday, August 20, 2026!

We want her to be healthy & happy so we have to do this for her!

Thank you and please pray for her swift recovery. As we await her surgery date, I’m keeping her more comfortable with pain medications.

4. Tasha

Adult · Female · Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · 72 mi from Greenville

Meet Tasha — a little girl who has been through far more than any cat should have to endure, and somehow came through it still believing that people are wonderful.When Tasha arrived at the shelter, she was suffering from bladder stones that had likely been causing her pain and discomfort for months. She also had a severe, untreated urinary tract infection that was likely responsible for the stones forming in the first place. Despite feeling absolutely miserable, Tasha was nothing but sweet. The shelter staff fell in love with her and advocated hard to get her the help she desperately needed.We brought Tasha into rescue and were able to get her into surgery just a couple of days later.

Read more about Tasha

Fourteen bladder stones were removed, and her bladder was filled with pus from the infection. Unfortunately, her troubles weren't quite over. Five days after her first surgery, her bladder sutures failed to hold, causing a life-threatening complication that required an emergency second surgery. Tasha came frighteningly close to losing her life.But this little girl is a fighter.It has now been two weeks since her second surgery, and Tasha is doing wonderfully. She is healed, happy, comfortable, and no longer experiencing the pain that had been her normal for so long. She is now on a special prescription diet to help prevent future bladder stones, and we are committed to keeping her healthy and giving her the happy life she deserves.And what does Tasha think about all of this? Mostly, she thinks people should be paying attention to her.This girl LOVES butt scritches and will happily roll over and over again to make sure you don't stop. She adores attention and affection, and despite everything she's been through, she has remained one of the sweetest cats you could ever meet.Tasha didn't get the easy start she deserved. She spent months hurting, survived two major surgeries, and came terrifyingly close to dying. Now she's ready for the part of her story she has been waiting for: a loving forever home where she can finally be spoiled, comfortable, and adored.If you're looking for a sweet, affectionate girl who will happily trade endless butt scritches for endless love, Tasha may be your girl.Adoption fee of $120 includes spay, microchip, vaccines, deworming, FIV/FeLV testing, and flea preventionApply here: https://2pawsup.org/applications/adoption-application/

Young (5 months 27 days) · Female · Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · 84 mi from Greenville

Bussi

DOB: April 1, 2026 (est)

Spayed Female Short Hair Dilute Tortishell

Hi! I’m Bussi! If the name looks familiar, it’s because my brothers and I were born when the Carolina Hurricanes made their Stanley Cup run, so we’re all named after the players. Pretty cool origin story, if you ask me! As you can see, I’m quite a lovely dilute tortie, and I like to think my personality is as pretty as my coat.

Read more about Bussi

I’m looking for a home where I’ll have another kitty friend to play with. I’m not scared of much of anything. In fact, I’m usually the one leading my brothers right into mischief. After all, someone has to keep things interesting, right?

So, I’m probably not going to be the best goaltender you’ve ever seen (unlike my namesake), but you probably won’t sneak a Churu past me. I love toys...ALL the toys. I really love burning off some energy chasing the laser light. Oh, you say you have a dog? Well, it just so happens that I hold the family title of the First Kitten to Give a Dog a Nose Boop!

If you’re looking for a little sass and a lot of love, I may be the perfect girl for you. So, let’s get to know each other. Contact Best Friend Pet Adoption and let them know you want to meet Bussi!

Young (4 months 29 days) · Male · Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · 84 mi from Greenville

Winston

DOB: May 2026 (est)

Neutered Male Short Hair Grey

Hello, I’m Winston! Okay, so let’s talk about my coat, because it is pretty unusual (and gorgeous, if I do say so myself). It’s an unusual grey with these warm orange undertones running through it. Sort of like a bit of pumpkin spice, so ,very on-trend, wouldn’t you say?

Read more about Winston

Confession: I’m a little on the shy side at first, especially when I’m somewhere new, but I’m also pretty curious and will quietly explore my surroundings. I like to take my time to feel comfortable before I fully let my guard down. But when I do? I’m a full-blown love bug who loves nothing more than being held by my person while they’re standing up. I just love being at people level! I also love curling up right next to you, just so you know I’m settled in.

I’m hoping for a person (or family) who is patient letting a new kitty friend get comfortable (kids over age 10 would be best, since I need a little gentleness to come out of my shell). I need a kitty friend to help me with my confidence, but I also get along great with dogs. If that sounds like your home, let’s get to know each other. Contact Best Friend Pet Adoption and tell them you want to meet Winston!

Hi, I’m Quincy! I’m a kitten on a mission, and that mission is to explore literally everything. New room? I’m carefully inspecting every nook and cranny. New box? I’m all over that, too! If it’s new, I’ll be bringing my investigative skills and exploring it fully.

Now, I’m not just a detective. I’m also quite the lovey-dovey kitten, so get ready to be love-bombed with kisses and full-face boops! When I’m not exploring, my favorite place to be is somewhere on you—your shoulder, your chest, even tucked right into your neck like I’m the perfect fit.

Read more about Quincy

I’d love a forever home with another kitty friend to explore and play with. I’m also good with dogs, who are nice to cats (of course). Kids should be at least age 6, since I’ve got a lot of love and energy to give and want to be sure everyone stays safe.

Hi, I’m Jarvy!

I got my name after a Carolina Hurricanes player because my foster family loved watching the playoffs—and just like my namesake, I’m always on the move!

I’m an energetic, curious kitten who’s constantly playing, exploring, and finding my next adventure. If there’s a box nearby, you can bet I’ll be inside it (or trying to figure out how to fit!). Life is just too exciting to sit still for long.

Because I have so much energy, I absolutely need a playful feline friend to wrestle, chase, and burn off zoomies with. I’ll keep my buddy entertained and make sure there’s never a dull moment. If you’ve already got a cat-loving dog, I’d love to make a new friend!

When playtime finally winds down, I’m happy to recharge before heading off on my next big adventure. If you’re looking for a fun-loving, mischievous kitten to keep you smiling, I just might be your perfect match! Get in touch with the nice people at Best Friend Pet Adoption and let’s get to know each other.

Adopting a cat in Greenville

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.
