3. Tripper

Adult (8 years 5 months) · Male · Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · 66 mi from Providence

Meet Tripper!

A sweet eight-and-a-half-year-old Domestic Short Hair cat currently in Bay City, MI, whose handsome tuxedo coat and gentle heart make him a charming companion with a special talent for snuggles.

Weighing around 12 pounds, Tripper is a lovable gentleman who believes the sweetest moments in life are spent curled up beside someone special! He may be a little shy when you first meet, but beneath that cautious exterior is an affectionate boy just waiting to share his love.

Read more about Tripper

Tripper likes to take his time getting comfortable in new surroundings. Once he feels safe, his personality blossoms into that of a devoted lap cat who adores gentle pets, cozy cuddles, and affectionate head bumps. His favorite activity? Snuggling with his favorite human, of course! Those sweet little head butts are his way of saying you're someone special.

This sensitive sweetheart thrives in a peaceful, predictable environment where he can relax without unnecessary stress. Tripper would be happiest as the only pet in a quiet, loving home, as other cats and dogs make him nervous. His experience with children is unknown, so a calm family who respects his need for personal space would be a wonderful match.

Tripper also needs a little extra medical care. Diagnosed with Feline Idiopathic Cystitis (FIC) and urinary crystals in September 2026, he requires prescription food, medication, regular veterinary appointments, and a low-stress lifestyle to support his urinary health. He's neutered and up to date on vaccinations. A patient, attentive pet parent who understands his medical needs will help him stay comfortable and happy.

With kindness, consistency, and plenty of affection, Tripper has so much love to share! Imagine peaceful evenings with this handsome tuxedo boy nestled in your lap, gently nudging your hand for another pet. He's ready for a new chapter filled with comfort, companionship, and quiet moments together.

Could you be the patient, loving pet parent who helps Tripper feel safe enough to share his sweetest snuggles? To learn more about adopting Tripper, contact adopt@joyfulpets.com!

4. Scuttle

Young (2 years) · Male · Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · 43 mi from Providence

Scuttle is a two year old neutered male cat, looking for his home. Here’s what his foster volunteer says about him:

How would you describe the cat's general personality?

Scuttle is an affectionate, playful, and energetic little guy! He loves following his human around and will sometimes lie right on your feet, making it impossible to walk. He’s also quite vocal and loves to meow at you. He’s curious about everything and wants to play with just about anything he comes across.

Does the cat enjoy being pet? If yes, on what parts of its body does the cat like to be pet? Are there any parts of its body that the cat does NOT like being touched?

Read more about Scuttle

Scuttle absolutely loves being petted, especially on the back of his head and under his chin. He may try to grab your hand with his paws when you touch his belly, so he seems to prefer head and chin pets over belly rubs!

Does the cat come on your lap?

Yes! Scuttle loves lying on your lap. When relaxing on the couch, he also likes to snuggle up right against your body. He’s a very affectionate and cuddly companion.

Does the cat like to be held?

Scuttle doesn’t seem very used to being held yet. He stays calm when picked up, but usually jumps down after a second or two.

Does the cat sleep in your bed?

Not sure yet! We haven’t reached the stage of sharing a bed, so I don’t know if he’ll sleep with me at night.

Does the cat seek your attention?

Yes! Scuttle is very vocal and will keep meowing until I make eye contact with him or respond to him. He definitely likes to communicate with his humans!

Does the cat like to play?

Scuttle absolutely loves to play, and solo toys are his specialty! He plays with them very well and loves to run around. He’s still learning how to play with wand toys and often tries to take the wand away so he can play with it by himself. He’s also still figuring out puzzle toys and sometimes has trouble finding the hidden treats.

What are the cat's favorite games and toys?

Scuttle’s favorite toy is his catnip pillow! He also likes to hide his favorite toys and take them out again whenever he feels like playing.

How vocal is the cat? What kinds of sounds does the cat make?

Scuttle is quite vocal! When he’s awake and not resting, he’ll often meow here and there, especially when people are walking around. He also loves meowing in the kitchen, possibly because he associates it with mealtime.

Scuttle makes all kinds of sounds! He meows, purrs, and makes little chirping or trilling sounds.

Does the cat scratch a scratcher? If no, please explain.

Scuttle mostly uses his scratching posts and scratchers. He tried scratching a cabinet door once, but stopped when he realized he didn’t like the texture. So far, he seems to prefer his designated scratching spots!

Does the cat always use the litter box? If no, please explain.

Scuttle uses his litter box very well now and does a great job covering his waste. When he first arrived at his foster home, he pooped on a bath mat and urinated on the sofa. This may have been related to the stress of adjusting to a new environment. Since settling in and getting more comfortable, he has been using his litter box well.

What food and frequency is the cat currently eating?

Scuttle eats four meals of wet food a day, about half a can per meal. His wet food includes Fussie Cat chicken and turkey shreds, RAWZ chicken and turkey shreds, and Tiki Cat chicken mousse. He also has a separate bowl of RAWZ chicken recipe dry food, with about 1–2 tablespoons available to help make sure he gets enough to eat.

Is the cat picky about food?

Scuttle is not picky at all! He happily eats all the food offered to him and always finishes his meals.

What is the cat's favorite treat?

I’ve tried Greenies, Temptations Party Mix, and Churu treats, and Scuttle likes all of them!

What medication is the cat on, and how is it administered?

No.

Does the cat ever swat (claws in) at you? If so, under what circumstances?

5. Tommy

Adult (7 years 2 months) · Male · Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · 66 mi from Providence

Meet Tommy!

A loving seven-year-old Domestic Shorthair cat currently in San Diego, CA, whose handsome silver-gray tabby coat and affectionate personality make him an irresistible cuddle companion.

Weighing 14 pounds, Tommy is a gentle, social sweetheart who believes everyone he meets is a potential new friend! He enthusiastically greets visitors by rubbing against their legs, asking for pets, and sometimes settling right on their feet. Whether curled up in your lap or relaxing beside you, Tommy loves being close to his favorite people. He's also a quiet gentleman who rarely vocalizes, except when being picked up.

Read more about Tommy

When he's not busy spreading affection, Tommy enjoys watching the world outside his window. Birds and squirrels provide endless entertainment, especially when he can chatter at them from his cat tree. His favorite toy is an interactive owl who squeaks and flaps his wings, bringing out Tommy's playful side!

Tommy has Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) and asthma, which requires twice-daily oral Prednisolone. Fortunately, this clever boy has mastered his medication routine! When he hears "Ready, ready, ready, open, open," he opens his mouth, knowing delicious Greenies and Temptations treats are coming. His caregiver happily offers to teach his new family this simple routine. Tommy has reportedly experienced only one asthma episode in the past year.

Tommy is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. He also eats a special urinary-care diet to help prevent crystals. His caregiver has also offered a monthly contribution toward his ongoing care.

This affectionate boy needs a calm, loving home with an experienced cat parent who is comfortable managing his medical needs. His compatibility with children, dogs, and other cats remains uncertain, so thoughtful introductions and careful consideration are important. He would appreciate room to explore, daily playtime, and plenty of opportunities for snuggling!

Ready to welcome this charming, treat-loving cuddlebug into your family? Contact adopt@joyfulpets.com to learn more about Tommy and discover whether he's your next wonderful companion!

6. Winston

Adult · Male · Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · 67 mi from Providence

Meet Your New Best Friend!
Looking for a low-maintenance companion who appreciates the finer things in life—like a long nap on the couch? That's me! I am definitely not a high-energy feline. Since I came from the streets, l am much more of a relaxed couch potato, and I'm completely proud of it. I love a quiet routine, gazing out the window at the world, or settling in for some Cat TV to watch and listen to the wildlife.
When it comes to affection, I prefer petting on my own terms. Too much petting can overstimulate me, so I like to be the one to dictate when it's time for physical love. But just so you know, my two absolute favorite spots to be pet and scratched are on top of my head and right under my chin!
I'm independent but very communicative. When it's mealtime or I'm in the mood for a quick game, I'll come find you. If you happen to be distracted when I really need your attention, l might give you a gentle, polite nibble on your hand or arm. But don't worry—| always follow it up with immediate licks to remind you that I mean no harm! It's just my quirky way of sending a text message. When we do play, my absolute favorites are chasing things on a string and hiding in a cat tunnel to swat at dangling toys.
Bedtime is when I spend the most time with you and when I start to PURR. I have a routine every night: first, I'll get to work happily making biscuits on the blankets. Then, I absolutely love having my head and under my chin scratched while we wind down. Once I've had my fill, I'll contentedly plop myself down at the foot of the bed to sleep through the night with you.
If you're looking for a sweet, predictable, and independent companion to share your peaceful home, I'm ready to meet you!

7. Tilly

Adult (2 years 7 months) · Female · Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · 74 mi from Providence

Meet Tilly, a sweetheart who is ready to find a lap—and a family—to call her own! This affectionate girl loves being petted, climbs into laps, and makes it clear that snuggle time is high on her wish list. She’s also discovering the fun of toys, showing off her playful side between cuddle sessions.

Tilly would be happiest as your one and only pet, with all that love to herself. She can coexist with other cats, though she prefers her own space. When she met a dog, she chose to keep her distance. A home with another respectful pet could be a possibility with thoughtful introductions. She has been fine with the children in her foster home.

8. Benny

Adult (8 years 6 months) · Male · Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · 66 mi from Providence

Meet Benny!

A lovable eight-and-a-half-year-old Domestic Shorthair cat currently in Gig Harbor, WA, whose handsome brown tabby coat, charming white accents, and affectionate personality make him one unforgettable gentleman!

Weighing approximately 16 pounds, Benny is a big, cuddly sweetheart with an even bigger personality. This handsome boy is a devoted companion who loves being close to his favorite people. Whether he's curling up in your lap for petting, following you from room to room, or serenading you with his impressive vocabulary of meows, Benny knows how to make everyday moments special!

Read more about Benny

One of his most endearing quirks is his beloved emotional support toy, which he proudly carries around while searching for his favorite human. He's also an enthusiastic mealtime supervisor who will happily escort you to the kitchen, especially when delicious lickable treats are involved! Despite his mature age, Benny still enjoys playful adventures, occasionally fetching toys or surprising everyone with an impressive leap into the air.

Benny is looking for a calm, loving, adult-only home where he can be the center of attention as the only pet. He's strictly an indoor gentleman who appreciates familiar routines, gentle affection, and plenty of companionship. A single pet parent or couple who spends considerable time at home would be wonderfully compatible with his affectionate, devoted nature.

Benny experiences anxiety, particularly during stressful changes, high winds, or unexpected encounters with animals. He typically responds by running or hiding, although he has experienced two isolated episodes of heightened reactivity during unusually stressful situations. Patient caregivers who understand feline body language and provide a peaceful environment will help him feel secure. Veterinary visits can also be stressful, but prescribed medications have successfully helped him navigate challenging experiences.

This neutered sweetheart is healthy, vaccinated, and ready for his next chapter! Although located in Gig Harbor, WA, long-distance adoption arrangements may be possible for a suitable family.

Benny has so much personality, affection, and companionship to share with someone who appreciates a wonderfully vocal, devoted feline shadow. Are you ready to welcome Benny into your life and discover the joy of having this affectionate, one-of-a-kind companion by your side? To learn more about adopting Benny, contact adopt@joyfulpets.com!

9. Tinker

Adult (6 years 3 months) · Male · Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · 66 mi from Providence

Meet Tinker!

A sweet and shy six-year-old Domestic Short Hair currently in Franklin Square, NY, whose gentle personality comes wrapped in a striking white coat decorated with handsome gray patches.

At around 22 pounds, Tinker is a wonderfully big boy with a tender heart! He can be timid when first getting comfortable, but patience gives this affectionate fellow the chance to show just how loving he can be. Once Tinker feels secure, he enjoys affection, being picked up, and spending time with the people he trusts. Show him love, and he has a charming way of returning it right back!

Read more about Tinker

Tinker also has a playful side waiting to emerge. He enjoys a variety of interactive cat toys, including favorites from brands such as Frisco and Catstages. He has amusing little habits that add personality to his days, and his vocal nature means his family can expect the occasional feline commentary, too! Watching this initially shy boy relax, play, and share his affectionate side can make everyday moments feel especially rewarding.

This indoor gentleman currently lives alongside other cats. Tinker may be timid around feline companions at first, but he can become playful and tolerant once he has time to settle in. He is suitable for a family with calm, respectful older children who can give him the gentle interactions he appreciates. Because Tinker has reacted to dogs, he needs a loving home without canine companions.

Tinker is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and has a clean bill of health. His new family should be committed to keeping him safely indoors, giving him time to adjust at his own pace, and treating him as a cherished member of the family.

One companion is already especially close to Tinker’s heart: his brother, Kittycat. These brothers have been together their entire lives and Tinker would love to be adopted with Kittycat if possible.

Meet Faxi!

Read more about Faxi

If you are looking for an adorable, sweet, loving, playful, active kitten, Faxi is your guy. Found on the streets at 5 months old, Faxi was congested and had a head tilt. Upon bringing him to the vet it was found that he had a polyps in his right ear that was causing him to tilt his head to one side, and was also causing congested sound he was hearing. He has had surgery to remove the polyps and is recovering nicely in his foster home. His head tilt only makes him look cuter, but should resolve itself in time. He will do fine in a home with kids and other cats. He has not been introduced to dogs. He will make a great addition to your home and provide you with much entertainment.

Faxi was born around April 14, 2026, and is currently being fostered in Waterbury. He is fixed, up-to-date on shots, and has tested negative for FIV/FeLV.

Meet Machiavelli!

A spirited four-and-a-half-year-old Domestic Long Hair currently in La Quinta, CA, whose essence is a delightful mix of affection, confidence, and conversation wrapped in a beautiful mackerel tabby coat.

Machiavelli is an incredibly sweet and outgoing girl who believes the best place to be is wherever her favorite person happens to be! She loves following her people from room to room, offering companionship, supervision, and probably a few opinions along the way. Very vocal and expressive, Machiavelli has no trouble letting you know exactly what she wants, especially when what she wants is more attention and love.

Read more about Machiavelli

This medium-sized beauty has an easygoing nature paired with plenty of energy. She is happiest when she can be involved in daily life, whether she is keeping you company during a quiet afternoon, trailing behind you as you move around the home, or requesting another round of affection. For someone who enjoys a social cat with a big personality, Machiavelli can bring plenty of warmth, amusement, and lively conversation to each day!

Machiavelli is an indoor-only cat, and her new family will need to continue giving her a safe, enriching life indoors. She is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, and has no known health issues.

Because Machiavelli seeks lots of attention and prefers not to compete with other cats for affection, she is looking for a loving home where she can shine as the solo cat and soak up all the companionship she craves. She has not been around children or dogs, so her compatibility with them is unknown. A caring environment where she can be the center of feline attention would suit her beautifully!

With her friendly spirit, chatty nature, and enthusiastic devotion to her people, Machiavelli is ready to make everyday routines feel a little more entertaining. She is the kind of companion who will make sure you rarely feel alone and always know when it is time for cuddles.

Could this affectionate, talkative tabby be the joyful companion you have been hoping to welcome into your family? To learn more about adopting Machiavelli, contact adopt@joyfulpets.com!

Adult (6 years) · Male · Domestic Long Hair (long coat) · 66 mi from Providence

Meet Little Boy!

A gentle six-year-old Domestic Long Hair currently in Amherst, MA, whose affectionate spirit, conversational nature, and handsome black coat make this 12-pound boy an unforgettable companion.

Read more about Little Boy

Little Boy is a huge sweetheart who wants to be part of everyday life! He thrives on frequent attention and a predictable routine where he can follow his people, chat about important cat business, and settle nearby for some quality togetherness. He enjoys firm petting, playful tussling, brushing, and, amusingly, a good rump pat! When he has had enough attention, he communicates politely by holding or gently pushing a hand away. Sometimes, when affection ends too soon, he will even pull your arm back toward him!

This social boy loves food-shaped catnip toys, rope, hair ties, resting, following people, and being followed himself. He has also mastered the charming habit of sitting at the table like an invited dinner guest! Visitors get to see his confident, friendly side, too.

Little Boy is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations. He has a history of anxiety and recently received dental care. His family should be prepared to continue supporting his veterinary, food, grooming, and litter needs.

His litter box habits are an important part of understanding what Little Boy needs. He reliably uses his boxes for bowel movements but frequently urinates in a standing, marking position, sometimes spraying the nearby wall. Stress and environmental changes appear to play an important role. Notably, after moving into a new home previously, his spraying stopped completely for about two months. It later increased alongside dental pain, reduced access to the home, and, more recently, sharing his environment with a dog. His spraying has improved significantly during periods of reduced stress and consistent routines, so a calm, stable environment would be best. He needs at least two very large boxes, including a large covered option, softer litter, and consistent daily cleaning.

Little Boy needs to be the only animal in his new family. He has not adjusted comfortably to cats or dogs, and his compatibility with children is unknown. A pet parent who is home most of the day, such as someone retired, working from home, or living in a multigenerational family, could give this people-loving boy the companionship he craves.

Could this talkative, affectionate gentleman be your new table guest, brushing buddy, and constant companion? To learn more about adopting Little Boy, contact adopt@joyfulpets.com!

Adult (3 years 7 months) · Female · Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · 66 mi from Providence

Meet Gwynnie!

A sweet three-and-a-half-year-old Domestic Short Hair currently in Oceanside, CA, whose affectionate spirit and playful personality shine through her sleek black coat.

Read more about Gwynnie

Gwynnie is a people-loving girl who knows how to make cuddle time extra special! Settle into a comfy spot, and she may climb onto your lap and begin making her adorable “happy paws,” kneading away while enjoying your company. She does not particularly enjoy being held, but she loves choosing closeness on her own terms. She can be shy initially, then blossoms into a friendly companion once she feels comfortable. She has a special fondness for men and happily gravitates toward the men in her family.

When Gwynnie is ready for action, she makes her intentions charmingly clear by bringing her favorite toy to her people! She loves chasing toys up and down the stairs, relaxing on her cat perch, enjoying treats, and enthusiastically celebrating wet food. Life with Gwynnie offers a delightful combination of playful bursts, cozy lap time, and plenty of feline personality!

Gwynnie needs to be the only cat in her new loving home. She has become increasingly uncomfortable sharing her environment with other cats, including hissing, swatting, and occasional marking outside her litter box. However, there's wonderful news! Since being given her own separate space away from the other cat, Gwynnie has stopped marking entirely and consistently uses her litter box. This encouraging improvement suggests that a calm, cat-free environment may help her maintain these positive habits.

Gwynnie has no bite history and has not shown aggression toward people. She is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations. She is compatible with calm, respectful, school-age children and older. Her compatibility with dogs has not been assessed. A gradual transition, beginning in a comfortable contained space before expanding her access, will help her settle in.

Gwynnie needs a family who enjoys companionship and can spend plenty of time with her. Could this happy-pawed, toy-delivering girl be the companion ready to brighten your days? To learn more about adopting Gwynnie, contact adopt@joyfulpets.com!

18. Chester

Adult · Male · Domestic Short Hair / Tabby (short coat) · 67 mi from Providence

Hi, I’m Chester, and I’ll be honest—I’m a bit of a complicated guy At 4 years old
For the most part, I’m a friendly, handsome boy who enjoys attention and spending time with my people. But I also have some quirks that make me special. Sometimes, if I’m caught off guard or become overstimulated, I can react by biting or attacking. Because of this, I’m looking for someone who understands cats like me and is willing to learn my signals and respect my boundaries.
I’ve been in a few homes already, and what I really need is a patient, cat-savvy person who will accept me for who I am and give me the stability I’ve been missing.
I’m looking for an adult-only home where I can be your one and only pet—no kids, no cats, and no dogs, please. In the right home with someone who understands that not every cat fits into a perfect little box, I know I have the potential to be a wonderful companion.
Could you be the person willing to give a misunderstood guy like me the chance I deserve?
If you are interested in adopting, applications can be found on our website www.ahimsahaven.org.

Adult (6 years 3 months) · Male · Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · 66 mi from Providence

Meet Kittycat and Tinker!

Bonded six-year-old Domestic Short Hair brothers currently in Franklin Square, NY, whose sweet personalities come wrapped in two distinctive looks: Kittycat’s gray and tan tabby coat with white accents and Tinker’s white coat with handsome gray patches.

Read more about Kittycat and Tinker

These big, lovable boys have spent their entire lives together, and their bond is an important part of their story! Kittycat, about 18 pounds, is the more outgoing brother, a friendly, affectionate fellow who happily returns the love he receives. Tinker, about 22 pounds, can be shy at first, but once he feels comfortable, his loving side shines through! Both enjoy being picked up, have vocal personalities, and bring plenty of playful energy to their indoor routine.

When playtime begins, Kittycat and Tinker enjoy a variety of interactive cat toys, including favorites from brands such as Frisco, PawsPik, and Catstages. Their playful sides add plenty of fun to the day, and each brother has his own amusing little quirks that are sure to keep their new family smiling! After the fun, these affectionate companions know how to make love a two-way street. Give them warmth and attention, and they are ready to send it right back!

Together, they offer twice the companionship, twice the charm, and countless cozy moments to brighten ordinary days. Kittycat and Tinker currently live alongside other cats. They may be playful or simply tolerant around feline companions, with Tinker sometimes needing a little time to warm up. They are suitable for a family with calm, respectful older children. Because they have reacted to dogs, they need a loving home without canine companions.

Both boys are neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and have a clean bill of health. Their new family should be committed to keeping them safely indoors, treating them as cherished family members, and welcoming both brothers together so they can continue sharing the companionship they have always known.

Could these affectionate, playful brothers be the double helping of feline friendship your family has been waiting to welcome? To learn more about adopting Kittycat and Tinker together, contact adopt@joyfulpets.com!

Young · Female · Domestic Short Hair / Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · 67 mi from Providence

I’m about 4–5 months old and came to the shelter as a semi-feral kitten with my sisters, Baby, Sassy, and Posh. With lots of patience and love from our volunteers, I’m slowly learning that people can be pretty wonderful!
I’ve made great progress and will even purr while cuddled in your arms. I still have some trust issues, though, so I’ll need a patient adopter who understands that building a bond with me will take time.
I’d love to go home with one of my sisters, or to a home with a friendly feline companion who can help me feel safe and confident.
Give me the time and patience I need, and I’ll keep showing you just how sweet I can be.

29. Stewart

Adult (2 months 23 days) · Male · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 87 mi from Providence

Happiness, joy, and pure love really do come in one tiny, fluffy package—and his name is Stewart (aka Stewie).

Once we discovered that the secret to his heart is a good scratch behind the ears, Stewie quickly decided humans are his favorite thing (tied with his beloved rattle ball). He has an industrial-strength purr motor—and when he’s extra happy, he adds in a drooly little “love bonus.” Yes, it’s as adorable as it sounds.

Stewart is also very vocal—he’ll happily “talk” to you, and make it clear when he’s ready for pets. He’s an easy kitten to read and loves that back-and-forth interaction with his people.

Read more about Stewart

Don’t let his clingy singleton-kitten past fool you—Stewart is the best of both worlds. He’s perfectly content entertaining himself during the day, and by night he is ready for full-time snuggles.

Stewart gets along well with other cats, has a heart of gold, and carries around the sweetest, most positive little outlook on life. Whether your home is big or small, full of kids or calm and quiet, Stewart will fit right in and love you endlessly. He hasn’t met a dog yet, but with a gentle intro, we think he’d do just fine.

If you’re looking for a social, playful, affectionate, certified lover boy with top-tier snuggles and unmatched charm, then Stewie is your guy.

Stewart was born on June 16, 2026, and is currently being fostered in Southington. He will be fixed, up-to-date on shots, and has tested for FIV/FeLV.

All of our cats and kittens are cared for in loving foster homes. "Meet and Greets" can be arranged only after an application has been submitted and approved.

Applications for adoption can be found at our website at www.fosterandforever.org.

Why adopt an adult cat in Providence

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.
