1. Hans & Zimmer
Adult (2 years 5 months) · Male · Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 23 mi from Vancouver




Hans and Zimmer are 2½-year-old brothers who have been together their whole lives. They're best friends, and wherever one goes, the other is usually close behind!
Hans is the handsome all-white boy with beautiful green eyes. He's the calm, easygoing brother who takes life as it comes. He's also the nurturing one, always looking out for Zimmer. Hans is usually the first to come say hello, and as long as his brother is nearby, he's happy just about anywhere. He's simply a sweet, happy-go-lucky guy.
Read more about Hans & Zimmer
Zimmer, the grey and white tuxedo with equally beautiful green eyes, is quite the character! He's a self-proclaimed tough guy who really isn't tough at all. He's a bit of a momma's boy, very tuned in to people's moods and emotions, and has a personality all his own. One thing Zimmer absolutely does NOT approve of is closed doors! He needs to know what's happening on the other side, and he'll make sure you know it.
There's a fun story behind their names. The boys were named after their family's favorite composer, Hans Zimmer. When their people leave for work, they turn on Hans Zimmer's music through Alexa to keep the boys company. And believe it or not, the music actually helps calm them down when they're getting a little too rambunctious!
Hans and Zimmer are good with respectful children but haven't lived with dogs or other cats. They are very attached to each other and must be adopted together.
Their family wants them to have a wonderful new home and will send along their medical records, cat supplies, food, and favorite toys to help them settle in.
Location: Hillsboro, Oregon - Rehoming fee: $200 for the pair - Indoor only.

2. Tiger
Adult (7 years 5 months) · Male · Tabby / Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 23 mi from Vancouver



Tiger is 7–8 years old and sadly lost the person he loved when his owner passed away. He is now living alone, and you can tell how much he misses having someone around to love him.
Tiger is a sweetheart who loves attention, affection, and a good lap to curl up on. He has a wonderful purr and would be so happy just having someone to spend time with again. Tiger was an indoor/outdoor cat in the past but is now living indoors only. More than anything, he needs a home where he can feel loved and wanted again.
It's heartbreaking to think of Tiger spending his days alone after knowing what it's like to be someone's special companion.

3. Cat
Adult (9 years 11 months) · Female · Tabby / Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · 23 mi from Vancouver


Cat is a very cuddly 10-year old cat who loves to snuggle under the blankets with her person and she always likes to be near.
It takes her a while to warm up to new cats and dogs but once she does she rules the house with them. She loves singing and will come running anytime someone starts.
She doesn’t do well with toddler age children which is why we sadly have to rehome her, having to keep her separated from our toddler at all times isn’t the best life with her.
She does great with older kids she just prefers children who know what gentle hands means. She loves a lick of ice cream here and there and will be your perfect movie watching buddy.

4. Baby
Young · Female · Domestic Medium Hair / Mixed · 13 mi from Vancouver




I really am just a baby since I am only about 6 months old! I was living outside for some reason and a nice lady was feeding me. She was worried that I might get PG with all those boys hanging around and asked SCC to make sure that will not happen. I am very sweet and loving and have a very quiet meow; so quiet you almost do not hear it unless you are looking at me and see my mouth move. I do have a great purr motor though! I will most likely need to be an only cat since I can be a little dominating with other cats. Older kids that know how to be nice to kitties, would probably be okay and I did not react to the foster's dog when I was in my carrier and he was near.
Read more about Baby
It might be different when I am nose to nose with others but that can be worked out with some time and patience. I am good with the litter box so I may have been an indoor girl at some point. I have been spayed, tested negative for FeLV/FIV, microchipped, vaccinated, and treated for parasites. If you are looking for a cute little bundle of fluffiness, look for me at the adoption events and come check me out. In the meantime, you can fill out an application at sccpets.com and maybe we can meet soon. Looking forward to it!

9. Sassy
Young · Female · Domestic Medium Hair / Mixed · 13 mi from Vancouver




I was found near an apartment complex but no one seemed to know who my owner might be or where I actually came from. The lady who found me didn't realize that I had kittens hidden in the area. That was discovered after my foster mom took me to the vet and it was determined I wasn't pregnant but did have nipples filling up with milk! About the same time, another lady found 5 kittens hidden in a blackberry thicket and it was determined that they were mine. Sadly, one baby didn't make it because there were too many fleas and even a bath in Dawn didn't help enough. The other 4 kittens got multiple baths and were reunited with me so we became a family again.
Read more about Sassy
Before that happened, I was spayed (doesn't interfer with nursing my babies), tested negative for FeLV and FIV, microchipped, and given my rabies shot. I will finish my vaccinations as appropriate for a nursing mom and be treated for any parasites I might still have. Now that all the drama is over, my kittens are eating on their own and weaning, I am getting my shots finished and I am ready for a new home of my own.

10. Parker
Adult (5 years 5 months) · Male · Domestic Medium Hair / Mixed (medium coat) · 23 mi from Vancouver



Parker, estimated to be about 5 years old, showed up in the Orenco neighborhood in Hillsboro, wandering around without a home of his own. Luckily, a kind person noticed him and decided to help. After making sure he was neutered and received his first vaccinations, Parker came into the care of Cat's Cradle Rescue, where he's been enjoying life as a foster kitty.
One of the sweetest things about Parker is how he asks for attention. He has these great big paws, and when he wants you to pet him, he'll gently put one on your arm or lap. It's pretty hard to resist him when he does that!
Read more about Parker
Parker loves to cuddle, but he's a long boy and likes to have enough room to stretch out and get comfortable. He also has wonderfully thick fur and a big, happy purr. With the colder weather coming, he'd make a pretty nice lap warmer!
We don't know how long Parker was out on his own, but we're glad someone cared enough to help him. He's such a sweet boy, and we'd love to see him settled into a home where he can stretch out, be loved, and never have to worry about being on his own again. Parker lives in Hillsboro with his rescuer and his rehoming fee is $125. Parker is indoor only.

11. Vergie
Adult · Female · Domestic Medium Hair / Mixed · 13 mi from Vancouver



Let me explain why I won't exactly look like my picture when you meet me. When I was inside all the time, I had a beautiful fluffy black coat with those brownish-gray highlights in the sun. However, after my brother, Tyler, and I moved to a different state and couldn't stay with our owners due to apartment rules, we went to stay with our human grandparents. Problems started because the two resident cats didn't like having to share things, so we started going outdoors to keep from having fights. Not an ideal situation to a cat that was used to being pampered and indoors all the time. I ended up with some mats and my highlights went away when my hair wasn't as fluffy.
Read more about Vergie
Once I'm used to you and new surroundings, I am a vocal girl and will tell you all the gossip of the day! I would prefer a calm, quiet home where I can be the one and only but I will tolerate my brother, if you are looking for a pair of lovebugs who are already used to being together. I do not like dogs and even though I was raised with young kids, I would prefer not to be around them. I have been spayed, tested negative for FeLV/FIV, microchipped, vaccinated, and treated for parasites. I do like a clean litterbox or I have been known to poop outside of it. What can I say? I am a bit of a diva!

12. Hubie
Adult (6 years 4 months) · Male · Siamese / British Shorthair / Mixed (short coat) · 23 mi from Vancouver



Named after Adam Sandler’s character in Hubie Halloween, Hubie is every bit as sweet and silly as his name suggests! One look into those jaw-dropping blue eyes and you’ll be hooked. And his gorgeous markings? Just wait until you see him in person!
Hubie is a big, beautiful 6 year old boy with a fun personality. He loves to explore, wander around the house checking things out, and entertain you with his silly antics. He's playful and agile, but also pretty chill and independent. He doesn't need to be the center of attention all day, but he sure does enjoy being near his person.
Read more about Hubie
Hubie can be a little unsure and fearful at first, so he'll need someone who will give him time to settle in and feel safe. Once he's comfortable, you'll get to see what a wonderful, funny, loving cat he really is. He would thrive in a home where he can relax, roam, and just be himself.
He loves sleeping near his person, and one thing is certain—you will NEVER miss breakfast with Hubie around! He takes his morning meals very seriously.
Hubie is indoor only and lives in Damascus with his family. Hubie's rehoming fee is $150

13. Scotland
Adult (4 years 6 months) · Male · Tabby / Domestic Long Hair / Mixed (long coat) · 23 mi from Vancouver




Scotland is looking for a home where he can serve, protect, and keep his favorite human safe! With his striking good looks, mesmerizing green eyes, and adorable little fangs, this handsome boy is quite the charmer.
Scotland is a wonderful mix of silly, sweet, and laid-back. He's happy to spend his days as your faithful office assistant, keeping you company while you work or just hanging out nearby. He's a lover, but he also has an independent side and is perfectly content doing his own thing.
Read more about Scotland
And then there's the 8 o'clock hour! That's when Scotland gets his zoomies and shows off his silly, athletic side. He's agile, playful, and so much fun to watch.
Scotland can sometimes get a little overstimulated with affection, so he appreciates gentle head pets while you get to know his boundaries. He's not an aggressive boy—he just has a lot of love and excitement packed into that handsome body!
He would be happiest as the only pet in the home, where he can be the center of attention and your one and only feline companion.
Scotland really is a go-with-the-flow kind of guy. He's affectionate without being clingy, independent without being aloof, and just an absolute joy to have around.

14. Saint
Adult (1 year 7 months) · Male · Tabby / Mixed (short coat) · 23 mi from Vancouver



Saint has had a rough start in life, having been neglected since he was a kitten. But underneath that handsome, soft coat is a big sweetheart who just wants to know he's safe, loved, and finally home.
Saint will need a little time to settle in and learn to trust his new surroundings. But once he feels comfortable, you're in for a treat! He absolutely loves head scratches, or "scritchies and lovies," as we call them. And when he's really enjoying himself, he slobbers all over you!
Read more about Saint
Saint is playful, curious, and independent with just the right amount of attitude. He likes to keep an eye on what's happening around the house, almost as if he's making sure everyone is safe. He enjoys interacting with people and even banters back and forth with the other cats through the door. But Saint can be a little territorial, and we think he'd be happiest as the one and only cat in a calm home where he doesn't have to share his kingdom.
And then there's the carrier! Saint is still working on his traveling manners and can put on quite a dramatic performance when he's inside. But the minute he's let out, he looks around as if to say, "What? I just wanted OUT, people!" He's quite the character!
We used to tell him, "You're no angel, but you are a Saint!" And over time, he really has grown into his name, although he'll always do things on his own terms. Saint live in Damascas with his rescuer and his rehoming fee is $150. Indoor only.

Marquam, 2 years old, loves to chirp and talk. It is music to your ears. He is all the right amounts of loving, chill and fun.
He is independent and will be happy to survey your home to ensure everyone's safety. He also likes to plop down on your desk whilst you're working and give little (love?) bites if you try and move him LOL. After a few minutes he will wander over to his own spot.
Welcome this best boy into your world and you will be smiling forever after. Slow intros to cats and dogs to ensure a perfect harmony.

Young (3 months) · Male · Domestic Medium Hair / Mixed (medium coat) · 23 mi from Vancouver








Hello, We are Ash, Cinder & Boo. We do not like to brag, but we are the most beautiful kittens you will ever meet, we're also three of the most affectionate. Almost perfect! Ash is the extremely handsome all black kitten. Boo is the cute little tuxedo guy, and Cinder is the dashing ginger boy. We are living in a foster home with big cats and small dogs. We are not exactly best friends with the other pets, but we are learning to coexist. After all, we are adorable, but we also know we are not in charge of the entire household. (however, we are plotting the take over).
Read more about BOO, ASH and CINDER
We have not met any children in our foster home, but our foster mom believes we will do just fine in a home with gentle and respectful kiddos. We do have opinions of our own, and we are not afraid to express them. We do get lonely when we don't have a buddy to play with or snuggle with, so our foster mom feels we would be best adopted as a pair or into a home with a friendly young cat who could be our new sibling.
We love watching the world go by as we sit in the window seat or in our cat tree ~ indoors of course! We're looking for an indoor only home where we can be pampered, adored and admired for the gorgeous little creatures we are. Our foster mom loves us bunches, but she says it is time for us to find our very own forever home. We think this sounds like a pretty good idea, especially if our new home comes with comfy places to nap, toys to chase, and humans who are willing to provide an appropriate amount of admiration. Do you think we are the kittens you have been waiting for? Fill out a pre- adoption application, and lets arrange a meeting. We promise to be charming

17. Woodland Crew Kittens
Young (3 months 6 days) · Male · Domestic Short Hair / Tabby / Mixed (short coat) · 23 mi from Vancouver





Meet Hans & Frans, Uncle Baby Billy & Aimee Leigh. These four kittens were found orphaned in the woods and are now learning that the world can be a safe, wonderful place.
The three ginger tabby brothers are a playful little hunting team, and their slightly older sister from another litter, Aimee Leigh, has been helping care for them while learning to trust humans herself. Bring out a fisher toy and the whole crew springs into action! They chase, strategize, and take turns catching their “prey.”
Read more about Woodland Crew Kittens
These little survivors are actively socializing and still building confidence, but they're making amazing progress. Slurpy treats straight from your fingers? Yes, please! Crunchy treats hand-delivered? Absolutely! They're okay with being picked up, and once you start petting them around their chins and necks, the big purrs begin to rumble.
Twice the kittens, twice the fun! These little woodland friends would love to be adopted in pairs so they can keep a familiar friend by their side as they settle into their new homes. They already know the comfort of growing up together, and having a sibling or trusted companion can help make the transition to family life a little less scary and a lot more fun.
They're not hiding anymore, but they're still learning to feel safe and confident in their surroundings. Their future adopters should be prepared to set them up in a secure, kitten-proofed space with no inaccessible hiding places where they could disappear or become difficult to reach. A smaller, safe room with cozy, accessible beds and familiar comforts will help them settle in, build trust, and continue their socialization. They'll need patient people who understand that earning their trust is a process and who will celebrate every little victory along the way.
They're not quite cuddly lap kittens yet, but they're curious, playful, and learning every day that human hands can bring kindness, comfort, and snacks. With time, consistency, and gentle interaction, they have so much potential to blossom into wonderful companions.
These babies need patient adopters who will let trust grow at their own pace and give them the safe environment they need to succeed. In return, you'll get front-row seats to their transformation from woodland babies into confident, cherished companions. Pairs $300. Indoor only. These kittens live in Tigard with their rescuer.

20. Emma
Adult (3 years 5 months) · Female · Tuxedo / Domestic Long Hair (long coat) · 23 mi from Vancouver



Emma is a petite, long-haired tuxedo girl about 3 - 4 years old, who really just wants a quiet, comfortable home. She's not a clingy cat, but she does like being close to her people. When everyone is sitting on the couch, Emma will usually curl up on the loveseat nearby. She likes being part of the family without having to be right in the middle of everything.
Emma's favorite time of day is definitely mealtime! This little girl LOVES her tuna, and don't bother trying to convince her that some fancy new flavor of canned cat food might be better. She's made up her mind!
Read more about Emma
Emma currently lives with two other cats and she doesn't care for the elderly female cat and spends a lot of time hiding from the younger male. She isn't fond of dogs either. Being such a petite little girl, I think she'd simply feel more comfortable if she didn't have to worry about other animals. Her best home will be to have you all to herself.
Emma isn't the kind of cat who demands your attention every minute. She's perfectly happy just knowing you're nearby. Give her a soft place to curl up, a peaceful home, and her favorite tuna, and I think you'll have one very happy little kitty! Emma lives in Beaverton with her owner and her rehoming fee is $50.

22. Maxine
Adult · Female · Domestic Medium Hair / Mixed · 13 mi from Vancouver




Maxine is a gentle, sweet girl looking for her forever home. Maxine spent her entire life outdoors, but thanks to a kind woman who made sure she always had food and shelter, she was cared for. She had several litters of kittens, and now that she has been spayed, her days of motherhood are behind her. She is ready to enjoy the safe, comfortable indoor life she deserves. Since coming into foster care, Maxine has really started to blossom. She loves being petted and is learning that being picked up can be okay, although she hasn’t had much experience with it yet. She has already come a long way with human attention and is becoming more comfortable and trusting every day.
Read more about Maxine
Maxine may be a little vocal or growl when she is unsure at first, but don’t let that worry you—it’s all sound and no bite! She hasn’t done this in quite a while, and I believe it was partly related to protecting and caring for her kittens at the time. With kindness, patience, and a little time, I truly believe Maxine will make a wonderful and loving companion. She is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, treated for parasites, and tested negative for FeLV and FIV. Maxine has spent her whole life taking care of herself and her babies. Now it’s her turn to be loved, spoiled, and safe. If you’re looking for a sweet girl who just needs someone willing to give her a little patience while she learns what it means to be loved, Maxine may be the perfect cat for you.

23. Isabella
Adult · Female · Siamese · 13 mi from Vancouver



Hi there! My name is Isabella. My human dad is moving and can't take me with him, SCC offered to help me find me home. So, let me tell you about myself. I am about 2 years old and a playful girl. Transitions can be bumpy sometimes, so while I might be timid at first, your patience will be rewarded with lots of love! I love to be petted but I will tell you, I have been known to give warning bites, not hard, but would be better with older kids that understand cat signs. I like to play, especially with those wand toys! I have my favorites. Those (and treats) are always great for bonding. I love being close to my person.
Read more about Isabella
I have been known to nibble on toes and am a great lap companion. I don't have any dog experience, well, or cat experience for that matter. You really only need one cat anyway, right? I have lived an indoor life and that suits me just fine. I am current on vaccines and microchipped and I am very good with my litter box.

24. Rocky
Adult (7 years 11 months) · Male · American Shorthair / Tabby / Mixed (short coat) · 23 mi from Vancouver



Rocky is an 8-year-old American Shorthair with a sweet personality and a funny little way about him. He loves it when you talk to him, especially if you give him a few head scratches while you're at it. He's quite the purr machine when he's happy! Rocky also has a playful side and loves a good game of hide-and-seek with his favorite person.
Rocky is a little sensitive to loud noises and he would love a quieter home where he can relax, feel safe, and just be himself. Once he gets comfortable, you'll get to see what a loving and entertaining companion he really is.
Read more about Rocky
Sadly, Rocky's owner is moving and will be staying with family who have dogs that aren't friendly with cats. As much as his owner would love to keep him, it just wouldn't be a safe situation for Rocky.
At 8 years old, Rocky still has plenty of playfulness and affection to share. He's not asking for much—just a peaceful home, someone to chat with him, a little playtime, a warm lap to sit on and plenty of those head scratches he loves so much.
Rocky lives in Tualatin with his owner and his rehoming fee is $100. Indoor only.

25. Betelgeuse
Adult (7 years 11 months) · Male · Bombay / Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) · 23 mi from Vancouver


This very personable, 8 year old kitty, is fully vetted and ready for a new home. He has had bloodwork and a dental and is a healthy boy! Betelgeuse is the perfect cat for someone who wants a cat companion. Somewhat dog-like, Betelgeuse seeks out his person for pets and interaction, chirps when he has something to say like, “what’s for dinner?” and curls up next to his foster to watch TV together.
Read more about Betelgeuse
Betelgeuse does not seem to be much into toys at his foster home, at least not yet. He’d rather follow his foster around, sleep on the bed, lay on the couch and be wherever his person is. Very relational, Betelgeuse will be a wonderful friend to whoever adopts him. He is not a fan of other cats or dogs; he just likes his humans!
Betelgeuse's adoption fee is $200 and he lives in Portland with his foster family. Indoor only.

26. Mimi
Young (5 months 28 days) · Female · Domestic Short Hair / Tabby / Mixed (short coat) · 23 mi from Vancouver



Mimi is a sweet, playful 6-month old girl who can turn just about anything into a toy! If she can't find her favorite toys, she'll happily find something else to entertain herself. She loves watching the world go by from a window and enjoys playing with her furry friends.
Mimi is wonderful with kids and people of all ages. She grew up with a small dog and another cat, so she's used to having animal companions, although we don't know how she'll do with unfamiliar dogs or cats.
She's also a pretty quiet little girl who rarely meows, even when she's hungry. But if she wants you to open a door, she'll let you know!
Read more about Mimi
One of Mimi's sweetest habits is curling up beside you when you lie down. She loves sleeping next to her person, just like a warm, cuddly stuffed animal.
Mimi is litter box trained and spayed and would make a lovely companion for someone looking for a playful kitty who also loves to snuggle.

29. Nova
Young (1 year 1 month) · Male · Domestic Short Hair (short coat) · 23 mi from Vancouver



Nova is a sweet, spunky, and energetic 1-year-old cat with a big personality who plays actively and would love an energetic dog or equally playful cat who likes to interact. He enjoys being around people, playing with his favorite wand toys, and soaking up the sunshine on his window seat when playtime is over.
Read more about Nova
Nova is neutered and an indoor cat who would love a home where he can get plenty of attention, playtime, and cozy spots to relax. Nova does well with dogs and older children, but he can play a little too rough and likes to be in charge when it comes to other more sedate animals. Because of this, he would do best in a home without other cats or young children and his ideal family would understand his energetic, spirited nature and help him channel his playful energy in positive ways.
Nova is still young with the potential to be a wonderful companion. We hope to find him a loving home where he can feel comfortable, get the attention he craves, chase his favorite toys, and enjoy many sunny afternoons in his window seat.
Nova lives in Portland and his rehoming fee is $50. Nova is indoor only.

30. Sophie
Adult (2 years 5 months) · Female · Tabby / Torbie / Mixed (short coat) · 23 mi from Vancouver



Sophie is a mistress of biscuits! She has an incredible talent to knead, drool, and purr simultaneously. She is happy to be cuddled next to you, or on you, but is hesitant to be picked up and carried. She would do well in a multi cat household, unknown history with dogs and children.
This pretty little lady likes the good life with lots of time for biscuit making, of course. In the sunshine is her favorite spot and on your lap or near you is even better! Sophie is 2-1/2 years old, healthy and she adapts easily to change. Healthy, spayed and vaccinated - microchip and registration included. Rehoming fee for Sophie is $125.

Why adopt an adult cat in Vancouver
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.
