🌤️ This calico beauty is Cloud, an affectionate feline friend with a heart full of sunshine! 💛

Cloud is a one-year-old cuddlebug on a quest to find her forever home. With her friendly and playful spirit, Cloud is the purr-fect companion for families and other kitties alike!

Though she enjoys sharing her world with cats and children, we’re unsure about dogs. 🤔

Mars 🔭🪐

Nine cats were introduced to our care after being abandoned in a local park. Each kitty had a planet’s worth of personality! 🪐 So we named them after our solar system. (Of course, we had a Pluto! 😂)

Today, we introduce you to the last of this stellar crew—Mars, our adorable holdout. He’s just waiting for the very best humans to come along!

Maybe that’s you? 🤩

At about 16 weeks old, Mars is a blend of independence and affection. He doesn’t seek out attention much, but loves to snuggle at night. Mars will be there by your side, keeping watch over your dreams. 😴💭

While he may dart away like a shooting star when approached, if you sit quietly, he’ll brave the distance and come say hello! With a sprinkle of love and a dash of patience, Mars will transform in a loving home into the loyal companion you never knew you needed. 🌟

Mars prefers a home without the hustle and bustle of children, but would benefit from other kitty companions. 🐱

Contact us about meeting out-of-this-world Mars! 🌠

Lighting up the sky with cute: Roman Candle 🎆 and Sparkler! 🎇

Roman Candle is Sparkler’s brother. The littermates are approximately 10-12 weeks old.

Meet Roman Candle:
He has a gorgeous swirly tabby coat pattern often referred to as “mackerel.” He’s a bit hesitant among humans, but can be coaxed to play and has started becoming braver! Given time and opportunity to settle into his forever home, he'll do just fine. 😺

Roman is good in a home with other cats and dogs.

🐱 Meet Sparkler:
Sparkler’s gorgeous coat is truly hard to describe! She's got lovely tabby stripes with orange peeping out in between. 🧡

Sparkler is very playful and curious! She loves tussling with her brothers. She isn't the cuddliest kitten ever, but as time has gone by, she's definitely started warming up!

Sparkler is good in a home with other cats and dogs.

These kittens may be adopted individually or as a pair.

I’m always on the lookout for new adventures and playtime. I get along with other cats and children. Bring on the kittenish antics and shenanigans!

Pot Pie is a stunning long-haired male around 2 years old. Check out all that fluff! 🩶

Pot Pie came to us with his lovely coat severely matted. His fur is growing back, but he still has some bald spots. His coat will be truly glorious once it’s fully grown in! 🤩

Anyone who adopts Pot Pie must be aware that long-haired cats take a lot of maintenance, such as brushing and grooming.

Pot Pie was also very skinny upon rescue, and had bad ear mites. Some of these issues take time to resolve. 🕰️

This handsome lad is a gentle, affectionate companion who’s good in a home with other cats and children.

Meet Pot Pie at Happy Cat Cafe! 😺☕️ Discover if he’s your forever feline!

ADOPTION UPDATE:

We received this update from Mermaid’s adopter today. We’re not crying, you’re crying! 😭

“This was Mermaid, now Angel who I adopted a week ago. She is giving me love and smiles as I recuperate from a mastectomy and chemotherapy for 12 weeks.”

We are so glad she is bringing you so much joy at a time you really need it. Many warm wishes for a continued speedy recovery! ♥️

Mermaid has two sisters, Dragon and Chimera, who would loved to be adopted together! Check them out on our Petfinder page that can be viewed through www.figandfriendspetrescue.org/adopt

Sometimes it can be harder for certain cats to get adopted. Often their personalities are shyer, they aren't as striking in coloring or they don't do well outside a foster home so don't get as much exposure to potential adopters.

Whatever the case may be, we have several cats currently in our care that have had their adoption fees sponsored as a way to encourage potential adopters to take another look at these lovely cats. This means that while you don't have to pay an adoption fee, you do have to apply and get approved.

Below are pictures, names and descriptions of the cats currently with sponsored adoption fees. Find out more about them here: https://www.petfinder.com/search/pets-for-adoption/?shelter_id%5B0%5D=MI1158&sort%5B0%5D=recently_added

If you are interested in giving one of them the chance they need, fill out an application online at www.figandfriendspetrescue.org/adopt
