5. Marble
Young (1 year) · Female · Dilute Tortoiseshell / Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 13 mi from Cincinnati



Marble - where to begin? Someone took her to a shelter - pregnant - but the shelter would not take her in. Someone in the lobby felt sorry for her and took her home.
Marble was in rough shape....all of her kittens died, probably because Marble was malnourished and too young.
We stumbled upon the situation and offered to get several of the people's cats fixed...but when we got Marble home, we realized she was in no condition to have surgery! She was only 4 1/2 pounds! The family agreed to surrender her so we could give her the medical attention she needed.
Read more about Marble
Well fast forward - she is a good as new! So friendly and playful....she LOVES toys and is hilarious! It is hard to get pictures of her because she is always on the go! So fun....we are so happy for her!
Born likely fall of 2025, she is spayed, microchipped, vaccinated and negative for fiv/felv. Adoption fee $60. Here is our application

Female · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed · 5 mi from Cincinnati




Hello everyone!
Read more about Abby
My name’s Abby! I’m a cute tuxedo girly kitty! I was brought to the shelter with my Sister Tabby (she’s the other kitty in the pic collage) on 6/20/26! We were tiny little babies then! We were found on the streets of Covington KY without our Mama. We are around 16 weeks old currently! Ever since being in our foster home, I’ve really blossomed! My foster parents said I was a really scared little girl at first but now I’m pretty brave thanks to my sister Tabby! She’s always the first one to try anything! I now roam freely in the house with Tabby, another cat and even a 100lb dog!! My foster parents say I’m really the sweetest little girl with a motor that won’t stop purring 24/7! I’ve also been told I have the cutest meow!! I love being cuddled, petted and just loved on! I also love to play with toy wands and even my foster dogs toys!! I even like to head but my k9 friend and make biscuits on his fur! So I think I’d do great in a home with other animals! But my purrfect home would be one with Tabby! Tabby and I are not only sisters but BFFS! We do everything together especially snuggle! We really would love to find a home together! I can’t imagine not being with her! I can’t wait to find my furever!
I’ve been spayed, UTD on vaccinations and microchipped. My adoption fee is $125 or $225 for Tabby & I!

Kitten (3 months 15 days) · Male · Tabby / Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 13 mi from Cincinnati




Are you looking for your new best friend? Do you wish cats could be just a little more obsessed with you? Meet Boo!
Boo loves nothing more than to be picked up and given a big bear hug. Plop him on your lap and he's purring. Throw a toy and he's after it, though he might get distracted by his tail along the way. Found outside in a busy city neighborhood, Boo was lured by the delicious smells of chicken and salmon dry food, and became quite fond of his human snack dispensers -- and most other humans, too! Since coming inside, he has grown into a silly, sweet boy, always ready to play, or let you rub his head, or tell him what big paws he has!
Read more about Boo
Given his rough start in life, Boo does take a bit of time to warm up to new people and environments, but once he feels safe, he is happy to let his full personality show. He's still getting used to how big he is, and loves to cuddle, trip on his own paws, and play with other kittens both big and small. No dogs, though, please -- too scary!
Estimated DOB June 2026. Boo is neutered, fully vaccinated, combo tested negative, and microchipped. To meet Boo, go to: https://www.pfcatrescue.org/adoption-application/

Read more about Cosmo
This kitty cat needs a forever home. He is very sweet but he is also
very mischievous. He likes to be near you if you are home and enjoys
snuggles and nap time if he is in a calm mood. However, he is often in
a playful mood and grabs, bites, and chases as play. He needs lots of
play and attention and if going to a home with other cats or dogs-
they need to be personalities that are tolerant of kitten energy and
play.
In my experience with my two girl cats at home- he wants to play too
hard and runs them out of rooms. He is not afraid to get on kitchen
counters and tables to search for snacks and get into whatever he can
find. He needs to be in a separate room when you are cooking. I think
he will calm down as he gets older and has the potential to be a very
sweet, unique pet- he just needs lots of patience, attention, and a
home that is the right fit for him.
He is estimated to be about 1 year old. He has been neutered and
vaccinated, but needs his follow-up booster shots (I have paperwork
detailing what he has had). He has a fractured canine that would need
to be seen by a vet, but he is not currently in any pain or showing
any signs of infection.
He is a silly little guy who will make you laugh. He was very chill
when he was seen by a vet, so I would anticipate those kinds of
errands and appointments being relatively easy. He allows you to pick
him up and can be very chill at times.

We are looking for someone to adopt a sweet Calico named Molly. She was
my late father’s lap cat and we brought her home a few months ago.
She's always been an indoor cat. We already have quite a few cats and
she seems to be better suited for a single cat home. She loves attention
and likes to cuddle. She’s fixed and has all her shots. She’s approx
5 years old.

Adopting a cat in Cincinnati
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.
