1. Yoshi
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.

2. Silver
Silver is a beautiful 4-month-old girl with a sweet, gentle soul who is still learning that people can be pretty wonderful.
She’s the shy sister of the bunch and has taken a little longer to come out of her shell, but she’s making progress every day. She is just now starting to approach her foster family on her own, which is a huge step for this little girl!
Here’s the funny part—Silver may act unsure about coming to you, but pick her up and that little purr motor turns on almost instantly. Put her on your lap, give her some gentle pets, and she settles right in and enjoys the attention.
Read more about Silver
Silver just needs someone willing to let her blossom at her own pace. We think she would do best in a quieter home with a patient person who understands that the shy ones are often worth the wait. Once you earn Silver’s trust, we have a feeling you’re going to have one incredibly special little girl.
Sometimes love just needs a little patience.

3. Rosie
Rosie is an adorable 5-month-old sweetheart who is looking for someone willing to give her a little time to show just how wonderful she really is.
Rosie and her 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, Rosie can be cautious with new people and new surroundings. She needs a calmer home and, most importantly, someone who understands that earning her trust may take a few weeks.
But once Rosie decides you’re safe, get ready—because this girl has SO much personality hiding behind that initial shyness!
Read more about Rosie
Rosie is affectionate, sweet, and loves attention and cuddles once she’s comfortable. She enjoys being close to her people and definitely has lap-cat potential. She’s also quite the little acrobat! Give her a dangly mouse toy and she’ll leap through the air trying to catch it, and break out the laser pointer and she is ready for action. She even has the cutest little chirps that make it pretty hard not to fall in love with her.
Rosie isn’t necessarily going to show you all of this on day one. She needs someone who will give her the chance to settle in, learn her new surroundings, and build trust at her own pace. Give her a few weeks, and you’ll start seeing the funny, affectionate, playful little girl we already know is in there.
Rosie can also go into a foster-to-adopt home, giving you a few weeks to get to know one another and make sure it’s the right fit.

4. Cora Bell
Cora is a beautiful 3-year-old calico with an incredibly loving, affectionate personality. This sweet girl wants nothing more than to be by your side! She’ll happily follow you from room to room, chatting along the way and making sure you always have company.
Cora loves attention, affection, and of course, her wet food! She’s also wonderfully comfortable around dogs—even a big 79-pound dog is no big deal. She’ll stroll right past him without batting an eye.
Read more about Cora Bell
When it comes to other cats, though, Cora has made her feelings pretty clear. She did not enjoy living with the last kitty she was paired with, so we feel she would be happiest as the only cat in her forever home. She’s perfectly willing to share her people with a respectful dog—she’d just prefer not to share them with another feline.
Cora is a sweet, confident girl with so much love to give. If you’re looking for a beautiful little companion who wants to be part of your everyday life—and you’re looking for just one special kitty—Cora may be your girl.

7. Moritz
Hi! My name is Moritz, but my foster mom calls me “Little One.” I was found all alone outside and had to be bottle-fed for my first few weeks of life. Just look at me now—I’ve grown into one handsome little guy!
Even though I haven’t lived with any cats yet, I had visits from my cat cousins and I loved it . I’ve been raised alongside two giant dogs, and they’ve become my best buddies. When I’m not lounging in my favorite chair or falling asleep in the funniest places, you’ll usually find me helping groom my foster siblings’ ears. It’s the least I can do to thank them for letting me crash at their house!

8. Bunnie
Bunny is a gorgeous 1-year-old girl with a stunning dark coat and soft, smoky coloring underneath that makes her truly one of a kind.
This sweet girl has experienced quite a bit of change recently, so she may need a day or two to take everything in and decide that her new surroundings—and her new people—are safe. But give Bunny just a little patience, and you’ll quickly see the loving girl underneath.
Once she feels comfortable, Bunny’s sweet and affectionate personality begins to shine. She enjoys attention, companionship, and simply knowing that she has someone nearby who loves her.
Read more about Bunnie
Bunny isn’t asking for much—just a safe place to land, a little time to settle in, and someone willing to let her come out of her shell at her own pace.
At only 11 months old, she has a whole lifetime of love ahead of her. And we have a feeling the person who gives this beautiful girl her chance is going to wonder how they ever lived without her.
Sometimes the sweetest friendships are worth waiting just a little bit for.

Adopting a cat in Fairlawn
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.
