1. Charlotte

Senior (12 years) · Female · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 37 mi from Huntersville

Char/Meck Animal Control was notified by a couple that a cat had shown up at their house. She was scanned for a microchip that came back to the SCHS...from 2015! Unregistered, we have CHARLOTTE back and have caught her up on her vetting. She is a total sweetheart: calm, friendly, but with not many teeth. This, however, does not stop her from eating and she enjoys her meals. She is also four-paw declawed, but doesn't hold that against us. She will make a wonderful lap cat!

Meet Golden Snitch!Four months old. Professional cuddler. Former roadside fugitive.G Snitch wasn’t exactly looking for a home when he was found.

DAYS. (My 8-year-old daughter got the first purr)But once he figured out that humans could mean soft beds, a full belly, gentle scratches, cuddles, and feeling safe...

15. Main

Kitten · Female · Domestic Medium Hair / Mixed (long coat) · 11 mi from Huntersville

From her foster "MEET MAIN — A LITTLE MAMA WHO DESERVES A MAIN STREET OF HER OWN!Her name is Main. Her story started on Main Street. But the place she belongs is in YOUR heart. Beautiful MAIN is a young black-and-white, medium-haired kitty who was found on Main Street in Wilkesboro with her two kittens.And this wasn't a family we could simply leave to fend for themselves. They were holding up along a very busy section of Main Street, putting this little mama and her babies in tremendous danger. So Main and her kittens became a rescue priority.But here's the thing about Main…SHE WAS BARELY MORE THAN A KITTEN HERSELF.

Read more about Main

This young girl had already become a mother before she had really gotten the chance to be a baby. When Main first entered rescue, she was painfully thin. Fortunately, this little girl has discovered one of life's greatest pleasures: FOOD! Main has a wonderfully healthy appetite and is steadily putting on the weight she desperately needed. With regular meals, safety and plenty of love, she's beginning to show us who she really is. And WHO SHE IS… is pretty darn wonderful. Main is EXTREMELY SWEET and affectionate. She has a lovely, gentle disposition and genuinely enjoys being around people. But don't let her mama status fool you—she's still a young kitty herself! She loves to play with toys and is ready to experience all the fun things she missed while growing up far too quickly.Now her kittens are vetted. Main is vetted. And this little family is ready for their next chapter. MAIN IS FULLY VETTED: Spayed Distemper vaccinated Rabies vaccinated FeLV/FIV negative Microchipped Treated for fleas Treated for intestinal parasites Main would be a wonderful addition to so many different kinds of homes. She would likely be happy in a home with children and/or other cats, but she could also be perfectly content being the only kitty in an adult-only home. After everything this little girl has been through, what she deserves now is simple:A safe home. A full food bowl. A few toys. A soft place to sleep. And someone who will love her for the sweet, beautiful girl she is. From a dangerous stretch of Main Street Wilkesboro…to the safety of rescue…NOW MAIN IS LOOKING FOR THE STREET SHE'LL NEVER HAVE TO LEAVE — HER FOREVER HOME."Kittens may appear older in person, pictures are typically updated monthly

Adopting a cat in Huntersville

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.
