Meet Xao
(pronounced as Zaoww)
Xao is about 1-year young, little Xao is looking for a quiet, comfortable home and a special person to call her own.
Once she feels comfortable, Xao is sweet, enjoys pets, and likes spending time with her person. She’s more of a “hang out beside you” girl than a “pick me up and carry me around” kind of kitty—and there’s something pretty sweet about simply having her nearby.
Xao would be happiest in an adult-only home with someone who understands cats and will give her the time and space to settle in at her own pace. A little cat-whisperer experience certainly wouldn’t hurt!

25. Yoshi
Young (4 months 27 days) · Male · Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · 33 mi from Elyria



Yoshi is an adorable 5-month-old boy who is looking for someone willing to give him a little time to show just how special he really is.
Yoshi and his littermates were trapped and brought into rescue with their mama. Because they didn’t get much exposure to people during those important first few months of life, Yoshi can be cautious with new people and new surroundings. He isn’t the kitten who will necessarily show you his whole personality on day one—but give him a little time, and you’ll get to meet the REAL Yoshi.
Read more about Yoshi
Once Yoshi realizes he is safe and can trust you, he is incredibly sweet, loving, playful, and affectionate. We’ve watched that personality come out, and multiple people who have spent time with him have seen what an amazing little guy is hiding behind that initial shyness.
Yoshi would do best in a calmer home with someone who understands that trust isn’t always instant. He needs a person willing to give him a few weeks to settle in, build a relationship, and learn that he is safe and loved.
And we’re willing to give YOU that time, too! Yoshi can go into a foster-to-adopt home so you can spend a few weeks getting to know one another and make sure it’s the right fit.
If you’re willing to invest a few weeks earning this boy’s trust, we truly believe the reward will be worth it. Sometimes the animals who make you work a little harder for their love end up giving you the very best kind.
Adoption is $175 which includes his neuter, age-appropriate vaccines, microchip and current monthly prevention. To fill out an application for this animal or a general application click HERE.

Adult · Male · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 29 mi from Elyria



Meet Fireweed!
Fireweed showed up in an established colony, and immediately we knew by his lack of an eartip that he was a newbie. Unfortunately, newcomers are pretty common in this colony, as people tend to dump their cats there when they no longer want them. He found himself a nice lady’s porch to live on, and when we came to pick him up, he was curled up by the front steps! He knew exactly where to come for help and where he knew he’d be safe. When we called out to him, he picked his head up, did a big stretch, and came to tell us hello!
Fireweed is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on parasite prevention.

Maple is the ultimate little shadow and wants nothing more than to be right by your side (and head), happily soaking up all the belly rubs you’re willing to give. Behind her fierce, elegant looks is the sweetest, most affectionate little angel who just wants to be close to the people she loves.

Why adopt an adult cat in Elyria
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.
