Medea is a majestic, house-panther-sized diva who firmly believes she is the radiant center of the universe. Tipping the scales with pure, unadulterated jollity, she carries her round silhouette with the cheerful swagger of someone who has never met a carb she didn't like. While folklore suggests black cats bring mystery and quiet shadows, Medea clearly missed the memo. She operates strictly on sunshine, boundless optimism, and an overwhelming desire to narrate every single moment of her day.

Silence simply does not exist in Medea’s world. Whether she is announcing her triumphant arrival from a nap, reviewing the quality of her dry kibble, or giving a breathless running commentary on a dust mote drifting near the baseboards, she always has a speech prepared. Her sunny disposition means every chirp, trill, and dramatic yell is delivered with maximum charm and zero indoor voice. To know Medea is to love her, mostly because she will happily corner you in the kitchen and talk your ear off until you agree that she is, indeed, the sweetest giant muffin to ever grace the tile floor.

He has jet black fur and gorgeous green eyes. He is mischievous in nature and is always scampering around to find more mischief and mayhem. We believe he will be very athletic as he gets bigger and his legs gained more muscles and strength. We often catch him climbing his cat tree and he is fearless of height.

9. Copper
To meet Copper, please text 214 621 1139.
Copper is the most adventurous kitten in his litter. He was always the curious one, the one that has to investigate anything and everything.

Good thing he has a nice set of lungs, so he can call his foster mom for help to extricate him from his wandering mishaps.

It's hard to scold him because he will immediately start purring and give cute little head butts with his muzzle and will lovingly rub his cheeks against your face. Like all tabbies, he is sugary-sweet in every way. We love him so much and can't wait to meet the right family to be his forever home.

10. Tucker
Meet Tucker! Tucker is a sweet, affectionate 2-year-old boy who was rescued after being found injured outdoors. He quickly showed everyone that he loves people, enjoys being petted, and has a gentle, easygoing personality. We suspect this lovely kitty has been abandoned because he is simply too sweet and trusting to be an outdoor feral cat. Tucker is recovering well from a bite wound and is FIV-positive, but with good care he can enjoy a long, happy life.
Read more about Tucker
Now Tucker is looking to win the big lottery—a loving forever home with owners who will be madly in love with him for life. Tuxedo cats are incredibly smart, oftentimes highly vocal, and extremely affectionate to the humans in their household. Most owners are devoted to these beautifully marked cats as they make champion housemates for life. If you're looking for a kind, loyal companion with a big heart, Tucker is ready to meet you.

11. Whisper
To meet Whisper, please text 214 621 1139
Meet little Whisper - our oddball of a kitty. There is a Walmart parking lot cat colony in Plano where several feral cats are scrambling around for food among dangerous traffic and cars. Little Whisper was barely 7 weeks old when she was also found starving and trying to make her way in the world. We don't know how she managed to scrounge around for enough food to survive. Even at 7 weeks, she was a tough cookie. It took a seasoned trapper to catch this canny one.
Read more about Whisper
Whisper went into foster care and have been loved and pampered ever since. However, it appears that the feral genes are strong in this one and despite all efforts to cuddle her, Whisper prefers to settle next to her caregivers but turns her cute nose up at all offers for contact or hugs. The domestic side of her loves being an indoor cat where food is plentiful and fuzzy blankets are everywhere.
We are looking for a loving family who understands the independent nature of the colony cat. Whisper enjoys a comfortable home life and believes that her beauty and grace are enough to earn her keep in snacks and high-quality food. Just like British royalty, she is appalled at any attempts to grab and cuddle her. This is a kitty that will happily lounge on your softest cushion or fluffiest blankets and slow blink her way into your heart. She leaves the door open for high hopes that the day will come when she willingly leaps into your lap and accepts it as her rightful place. But until that day comes, you just have to keep loving her and bribing her with yummy snacks. Are you that family? If yes, contact us so we can show this haughty little creature to you.

17. Crabgrass
Crabgrass was part of a feral colony, but came to us young enough to decide that people are Just Fine! He's a real love bug, and wants as much lap time as possible. Crabby is a gorgeous light brown tabby, and looks like a sand cat. He's still a bit shy about new things and people, so he'd do best in a quite home, but would get along well with older kids and other pets.

Adopting a cat in Lucas
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.
