4. Minnow
Meet Minnow! This adorable boy may be a little shy at first, but it doesn't take long for him to warm up and show you his sweet side. He's a big fan of treats and, even better, a cozy spot on your lap!
Minnow gets along wonderfully with cats of all ages and would likely love having a playful feline friend to romp, chase, and get into kitten mischeif with. He hasn't been around dogs yet, so we're not sure how he would feel about having a canine roommate.

5. Lo Mein
Hi, my name is Lo Mein! My foster mom says I'm a confident and outgoing kitten. I love to explore and play! Right now, my favorite toys are teaser wands, balls that crinkle and these silly little plastic springs that are just too much fun!
When I'm not busy playing, I love to follow my foster mom around, rub on her legs and get pets. I also don't mind being picked up and cuddled although I am still a kitten and have things to do so sometimes cuddles are a little short right now but my foster mom says I'm getting more cuddly as I'm getting older. Anytime I get attention, I purr loudly!
Read more about Lo Mein
One of my other favorite things is food! I love Churus and come running for my wet food at night! My foster mom has also bought me a couple of treat puzzles and I'm a whiz at those!
My foster mom says to mention that I'm really good at using my cat scratchers and leave carpet and furniture alone. I have cardboard and sisal scratchers and like them both!
When I first came into foster, I was with my brother. He's been adopted but, when he was here, we played well together... we loved to run around, pounce on each other and wrestle but could also play independently. I'd probably do okay with and maybe even enjoy another cat in the home, especially if they're playful, but this isn't a must. I've also met my foster mom's golden retriever and like her... she's not very playful but I follow her around, boop noses with her and rub on her fluffy fur, so I could easily live with a cat friendly dog as well!
Lo Mein's adoption fee is $100 and includes her spay, microchip, current vaccinations, and an FeLV test. Last Hope requires that all animals be kept as indoor only pets and that adopters have a history of having kept their pets altered and current on vaccinations and preventatives. Our adoption process includes a background check, home visit, and a vet history check. If you would like to meet Lo Mein, please submit an adoption application on our website, Adopthope.org.

6. Tony
Tony... Tony the Tiger that is! He is a big, handsome orange guy weighing in at about 15 pounds, and he has plenty of love to give! He absolutely loves pets, attention, and being around his people!
Tony enjoys wandering around and checking things out, but more often than not, you'll find him lounging comfortably in his bed, taking it easy, and enjoying the good life. He's the perfect combination of curious and laid-back!
Tony has not shown himself to be a huge fan of other cats, so he may do best as the only cat in the home. He has not yet been dog tested, so we do not know how he feels about canine companions.

8. Smoky
At just around 3 years old, Smoky has lived quite a sheltered life. His previous owner never introduced him to other animals and declawed him at a young age. Like most adult cats who are declawed, Smoky can be bit mouthy when overstimulated or upset. Due to this, he is looking for a quiet home without any children and with an experienced cat owner who can help him learn to trust people again. He has shown to be hissy with other cats and may be best suited as an only pet.
Read more about Smoky
Smoky has begun to show us his playful and loving side as well. He enjoys stretching out and "scratching" on cat towers despite not having any claws. He also really loves churu treats and receiving all the pets once he trusts you... specifically all the butt scratches he can get. He is just a goofy guy looking for someone that is willing to understand him.
Smoky's adoption fee is $85 and includes his neuter, microchip, and current vaccinations. Smoky is seeking an indoor only home with adopters that have a history of having kept their pets altered and current on vaccinations and preventative care.
