14. Abigail
I think I would like to be an only child... but I can live with other kitties... you just gotta give me some time to adjust.
I love drinking straws... I will steal them from you; or you can just give me one.
I also love drinking from the faucet; just turn it on a little and I will take it from there!
Now that I don't have babies, I love to play with toys! Small bouncy balls are a favorite!
And I have a super cute orange tip on my tail! I tried really hard to be a tortoiseshell... but came out mostly a tabby... so I am a torbie!

15. Mamacita Margarita
Hi, I’m Mamacita Margarita, but my friends call me Margs! My story started when I was found at my foster mom’s coworker’s home, where I had given birth to my babies inside a wall. Unfortunately, there were termites in there with us, and when the exterminator needed to come, we had nowhere safe to stay. That’s when our foster mom stepped in and took my little family home with her. I’m an incredibly sweet and friendly young girl, but I’m also very shy. The funny thing is that I really, really want your affection. I’m just not immediately convinced that trusting you is a good idea. My foster mom says you can practically see the debate happening on my face.

I want to come out. I want the pets. I want the love. But are you trustworthy? Give me a little time and patience, though, and eventually the desire for love wins. Once I feel safe with you, I’ll come out to rub against you and soak up all the affection I’ve been wanting. I might even give you one of my special little love bites. I get along just fine with other cats, both young and old. I’m simply a girl who needs a little extra time to learn that I’m safe and that the people around me are kind. I’m looking for someone patient who won’t rush me and will let me come out of my shell at my own pace. Once I decide you’re my person, you’ll have all the love I’ve been holding onto. I’m a sweet young mama who just needs someone willing to love me as much as I’ll love them.

16. Sativa
Super unique coloring, gorgeous green eyes, this happy spunky girl is just a joy.
Her mom, a super sweet orange tabby, randomly showed up, heavily pregnant, in someone's yard on a country road back in April (we assumed someone dumped her ). Thankfully, momma had been eating well. One bath and two days later, she went into labor!
Sativa was born 3rd of 4 kittens, around 1am on April 21st, and she was by far the smallest. She has grown into such a sweet, affectionate cat - loves head rubs and has fallen asleep repeatedly on her foster mom's chest (watching her grow up from birth has been so cool )
Read more about Sativa
She has been raised with many other kittens, and is regularly socializing with adult cats. may be shy at first but will warm up quickly. She's been raised with many other kittens, and is regularly socializing with adult cats. Recently we've started bringing our nice old-man pug into her room to help her get used to dogs. Overall she's just a wonderful cat
Medical Note: She was diagnosed with a mild heart murmur at the low-cost spay neuter clinic, therefore we are waiting for our regular veterinarian to reassess and spay her. However, when it comes to mild murmurs in young cats, "they are often Physiologic (innocent) murmurs. These are often seen in healthy young cats, especially during excitement or stress. These are usually benign and may change in intensity with the cat's activity level." -

Indica was born 1st of 4 kittens, around 1am on April 21st. She has grown into such a sweet, affectionate cat - loves head rubs and has fallen asleep repeatedly on sther foster mom's chest (watching her grow up from birth has been so cool ). But as a rule, she is the most independent of her siblings and is perfectly happy hanging out by herself. She of course loves playing with her siblings and the other kittens she's grown up with too, so she would do well as an only cat or with a friend or two.
She's also spent regular time with the older cats in her foster home, and has recently started seeing the chill old pug that lives in her foster home, as he is wonderful with kittens. She would prefer a quieter home, but otherwise would do well in most environments.

Adopting a cat in Huntsville
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.
