Greetings, peasants! It is I, Missy Mitsubishi, future monarch of your domain, writing to inform you that I seek a new queendom to rule over.

At my prime age of 2 years old, I am young and beautiful and shall make biscuits on the throne for many years to come. I prefer to be the youngest and fairest in my land, and would do better with older subjects who respect my royal boundaries and body language.

Though I am very curious about everything going on in my domain, it does take me a while to warm up to new people and places. Take heed, foolish peasants! Dare to pet me only if I deem you worthy!

I require time and space at first, but if you pass my trials and I judge you well, I shall bestow my love and affection upon you by granting petting privileges and surveying my land whilst laying on top of you.

Ruling over a queendom is hard work, and I love to unwind from royal business by chasing after cat toys and pouncing on them from my secret dungeon lair of cardboard.

Some might call me clingy, but a queen must know her subjects business at all times lest they spark mischief, so following you around and meowing at you is just part of my royal duty and I take it very seriously.

My preferred queendom is one that is calm and predictable, where I can feel comfortable ruling over my subjects in peace and harmony. If you choose to heed my summons, I promise to rule over you justly and wisely and long shall our fair land prosper together.

I am located in a foster home. To learn more about me and set up a visit, please fill out an inquiry form:

Kaya is a delightful feline who enjoys spending her time in the company of her foster family. She loves to curl up and take a peaceful nap often on your lap or near you, but she quickly wakes up if she catches a whiff of something delicious. You'll often find her with her tiny paws tucked snugly against her chest when she's fast asleep, or with her paws gracefully turned out like a ballerina when she's sitting. Kaya is quite the conversationalist and adores engaging in meows with her human friends. She thrives on affection and cuddles, craving attention at every opportunity.

Since her arrival at her foster home, Kaya has blossomed from a shy kitty to a social butterfly who craves pets, grooming, and affection. Brushing her beautiful coat is a pleasure for Kaya and helps with her grooming. Kaya is not that crazy about young kittens as she likes to relax and snuggle. She is eagerly waiting to find her forever home, where she can bring joy, companionship, and plenty of cuddles to her lucky human companions.

Milton Allegro is an incredibly sweet boy who loves making biscuits, chasing toys, and snuggling up. When he's not busy doing one of these things, he can usually be found lounging on the window canopy watching birds.

Milton loves hunting and stalking his prey (colorful balls or dry kibble) and will take his time, waiting for the right moment to strike! Playtime and after eating is when he has the most energy. When he gets the zoomies, he'll dive through tubes and launch himself across the room. His favorite toys are ribbon and feather wands and will usually play until his foster mom gets too tired. Milton's a very curious boy who wants to explore and especially loves high places where he can get a good view. When he's had enough pets or needs space, he may communicate by licking or gently putting his teeth on the skin.

Milton is very welcoming and loves meeting new people. He shows affection immediately but will love you even more if you have a treat. He is food-motivated, which has been helpful in clicker training! Milton responds very well to his name and other commands! Milton has not messed with any houseplants or knocked over any knick-knacks. He would prefer to be an only pet.

If you're looking for a goofy lap cat who loves to play, chat, and snuggle, Mr. Milton is right for you!

Milton is in a foster home. For more information and to set up a visit, please fill out an inquiry form at: https://us10d.sheltermanager.com/service?account=da1619&method=animal_view&animalid=5316&template=animalview

Meet Lucifer Murray -- don't let the name fool you, this sweet boy is a total softie at heart! While he might be a bit shy in the beginning, this gentle soul quickly warms up to people as he enjoys receiving attention, pets and lots of cuddle time. When he is not asking for cuddles, he may be playing with his toys and snuggling up to his catnip toys.

Fair warning, when the happy purrs kick in, so might his adorable drool. It is his signature way of showing just how content he is.

Lucifer Murray is located in the Feline Rescue Adoption Center. If you want to meet him in person, make an appointment with the form at: https://us10d.sheltermanager.com/service?account=da1619&method=animal_view&animalid=6241&template=animalview

Hi, my name is Wumpus Summer Breeze, and I am seeking a chill home where I can nap and look out the window without being bothered. I am great at catching fluttering things on a wand toy and love a good scratch board. Petting me is okay, but sometimes I want to play with your hands instead, so you will want to handle me with care. But I am not aggressive, and I enjoy curling up at your feet at night. Truly, I am a pretty, green-eyed, laid-back calico cat that minds my own business. You will come home from a hard day's work and know that I will be in my cat bed, waiting, not a care in the world.

I am located in a foster home. To learn more about me and set up a visit, please fill out an inquiry form at: https://us10d.sheltermanager.com/service?account=da1619&method=animal_view&animalid=4631&template=animalview

Come meet Ellie Sparkles. She lives up to her name and shines brighter than all the stars in the universe. This low maintenance cat loves to cuddle and make biscuits, acting as an excellent antidote to winter. If you call her, she will run to you to see what you want. It is important that she keep active and manages her weight. Sometimes she will play by herself and at other times she likes to chase after toys. Her interests include using a ball tracker, a mouse kicker, soft cat toys and a kitty fishing rod. She has been known to drag her fishing rod from the living room into the bedroom as a present. She is quick to welcome strangers into her space. She uses her litter box 100% and likes horizontal cat scratchers. She may do best as an only cat or with slow introductions.

Ellie Sparkles has been a delight to foster. Wouldn’t you want to be her adopter to keep those emerald colored eyes shining?

Ella is located in a foster home. To learn more about her and set up a visit, please fill out an inquiry form at: https://us10d.sheltermanager.com/service?account=da1619&method=animal_view&animalid=6169&template=animalview

Hi! My name is Happy Blanche. I am a 9-year-old black and white diva with a unique charm. I have a neurologic condition that makes me partially blind and unable to jump, but it doesn't stop me from being a loving companion. I take daily medication to help me feel my best and I need a little assistance with grooming and baths a few times a week.

I can be a bit shy at first and take some time to adjust to new spaces and sounds. I've lived with dogs before, and as long as they give me space, we're good friends. When I first arrived at my foster home, I had some trouble with the litter box, but now I use it about 90% of the time, especially if it's a flat pan. I sometimes need help keeping my feet clean, finding my food bowl, and getting back to my favorite blue hut. That's where you come in!

I'm a very sweet kitty who loves to be around my humans. Walking between your feet is my favorite game, and I enjoy batting around my little toys. I have plenty of energy and love lounging with my humans. I'm hoping to be an excellent companion for a long time yet!

Happy Blanche is in a foster home. For more information and to set up a visit, please fill out an inquiry form at: https://us10d.sheltermanager.com/service?account=da1619&method=animal_view&animalid=5835&template=animalview

Christina is located in a foster home. To learn more about her and set up a visit, please fill out an inquiry form at: https://us10d.sheltermanager.com/service?account=da1619&method=animal_view&animalid=6188&template=animalview
