Adopt me
Under a year old

Working on name (options: Mercury, Freddie, Arlo, Echo)

This sweet young boy is very social, tolerates other cats but doesn’t really seem to like other cats. Friendly with people and not timid.

He goes for radiographs on Tuesday and has had multiple vet visits and been on meds since rescue due to possible infection in leg that caused him to limp. He limps less than he did at one point but gait is still not completely normal. Vet had said maybe septic arthritis or infection in bone

We would love to find a longer term foster or forever home for him. Current foster was already maxed out when he needed to be rescued after he showed up as a stray at their home.

Adopter needed

Chopper was named after a character in an anime series called One Piece that also got turned into a live action series on Netflix

He is a very affectionate young adult male tuxedo who gets along great with other cats and loves to demand pets by grabbing the humans’ hair. He is a nonstop purr-er and has some of the most extraordinary whiskers foster mom has seen. In foster care since he was a little kitten and not one adoption application yet! Chopper is around a year and a half old and is such a sweet and expressive boy. He gets along well with his foster kitty friends and especially likes to pal around with McFlurry and Patty if you are interested in two cats. He loves attention and taking naps with his foster parents and is very playful.

Foster / Adopter Needed
Truely is in need of a new home and we need a foster commitment. Her parents are moving out of the country in the next week and unfortunately cannot take her because their living arrangement doesn’t allow cats.
They have reached out to family and friends and no one is willing to assist (even to foster for us).

Trulie is a 7-year-old grey/black/tan striped , green eyed chubby tabby with a warm and quirky personality.

She’s a loving and playful cat who enjoys her independence but also cherishes quiet moments curled up next to her favorite human.

She loves crying at the birds through the window. Loves naps in the sun. Still plays with her toys like a younger kitty.

She thrives in a one-cat household (gets territorial about her humans and home) but gets along with friendly dogs.

Please complete one of our adoption applications so we can screen first best fit.

🐾💗🐾

4 month old Lily is a domestic short hair small, young female. She is very affectionate with her foster Mom and even likes to crawl under the covers and sleep next to her humans. Lily is playful and gets along with her siblings and the other foster cats in the home. She is pretty outgoing, loves canned food and playing with all her toys.

If you are interested in bringing this love bug into your home, please fill out and submit an Adoption Application at:

We need foster(s) to help with kittens and adult cats - North Carolina: fosters needed in Burlington, Graham, Greensboro, Whitsett, Mebane, Gibsonville, Hillsborough.

We cover vet care and can help with supplies for our foster cats if you ask for them and need them. You provide a safe place, lots of love and regular interaction and socialization, allowing kitties to be part of the household - separate for up to two weeks for slow intro if other cats and pets in home. If pets in the home they must be spayed/neutered and current on vaccines.

Apply to foster https://form.jotform.com/221726536443153 (link to app in our bio)

Ideally, fosters need to:
🐾 be able to take quality photos and videos to help us promote the cats;
🐾 good communication with Director and Adoption Coordinator
🐾 transport to vet when they have vet appts
🐾 comfortable meeting potential adopters and making sure it’s a good fit for your foster kitty (we will be there with you if needed)
🐾 willing to foster until adoption no matter the amount of time that takes.

Fostering isn’t a lifetime commitment but a commitment to save a life!

Snow is headed our way. Not a huge amount but enough to make things difficult. I have backup volunteer help if needed to check on Catniss and Hemera’s crew. Everybody has plenty of food and water though and will be plenty warm. Be safe! Stay warm.

I was just sitting 5-10 feet away on porch steps this whole time. Video shot FIVE minutes before successfully trapping black beauty (unknown if male or female). A feral tabby mama cat shows up in video too. Neighbors of where black cat showed up have her kittens and are planning to trap mama and fix through the shelters mighty mousers program. Black beauty was once someone’s pet and they moved and left kitty behind 😡 with a flea collar on. 😡 A friend of mine had a offered a home to black beauty and we will vet the kitty. ......

Keeping up our trend with positive posts today…cause it’s been a rough month and then some…Taylor is looking and feeling great after her December bout with a bacteria found in an aspirate of her liver. She wouldn’t eat well for several days and then the only thing we could get her to eat regularly were about 12 fancy feast broths a day.

09/01/2025

Just trapped the abandoned black cat I posted about the other day. We spent yesterday afternoon, this morning trying and I came back about 30 min ago and set trap again and set up a large carrier with hopes they’d go in one. I had them in my arms yesterday and placed in carrier but it was difficult trying to close carrier door and they escaped. Former owners moved and left it behind. Had an old blue flea collar on. They have a home with a friend. We will vet and fix if not already fixed. Not sure yet if a boy or girl. rescued and safe headed home!

09/01/2025

Chester had his sutures removed today, almost 2 weeks after exploratory surgery. Good news! Not cancer! Most likely FIP which we already started treating 2 weeks ago. Since then he’s gained over a lb!

09/01/2025

GIZMO is about 5-6 months old now and ready to find a forever home! He’s fostering with other cats. Apply to adopt via www.sparklecatrescue.org/adopt and see if you are a purrfect match for him.

08/01/2025

You could not ask for a sweeter kitty. Brooklyn is just under a year old (around 9-10 months old) and is ALWAYS seeking human affection and attention. If you don’t mind a real affectionate cat who wants to be near you, she’s your girl. She’s fostering with her sister Hudson, and other cats. She has done well with new cats. Apply to adopt via https://form.jotform.com/92366480127156

NOT fip. Maybe constipation or she’s just a big cat
$92.88 vet visit

Chiquitita is fostering in Mebane NC with Joan and Kertis (since last summer). They messaged me yesterday morning about her abdomen looking abnormally large. Foster parents are working today so Joan dropped her off with me and I am taking her to a 940 appt at this morning. Our greatest worry of course is wet FIP. 🙏 and ❤️. we will treat her if it is FIP and have meds on board. Meds started yesterday as a precaution. Meds won’t hurt her even if it ends up not being FIP. Donations most appreciated to help with visit, CBC and Chem panel. Please donate to help with this unexpected expense.

Overlooked and such a sweetheart, he’s so handsome…and smart and playful. Jack Black has been waiting a long time to find a furever home and it’s not because we’ve ‘prevented it or had him since he was a kitten’. He’s just not had any interest. He came to us as an adult 3 years ago! He’s a people cat and loves getting attention. He can be a little rough with cats that are nervous so if there’s a cat in the home they need to be very confident. Apply to meet n greet / adopt via www,sparklecatrescue.org

Chiquitita

Good news! It’s about time we can have good news after a vet visit! Chiquitita apparently is just a chunk. They do not believe it’s FIP. Foster will try to isolate her and make sure she’s making 💩 and not constipated. Whew! .....#sparklecatrescue #goodnews #fostercat #orangecats #gingercats #chiquitita #abbacat #fosteringsaveslives #adoptdontshop

Help this kitty

Update: A friend may be assisting to get kitty inside. She is talking to my other friend who contacted me GRAHAM NC. A friend texted me this video. Someone she knows has been feeding cat since neighbor put kitty outside and moved. Sparkle Cat Rescue does not have any foster space available to be able to take kitty in. Please email [email protected] if you are able to give kitty a home. We will report to shelter as a stray but they won’t take in. We will ask for you to complete our adoption application also so we can screen properly. We have no further info about cat. Maple Ave., Graham NC near Granddaddy’s. .....#homelesscats #straycats #blackcats #cats #grahamnc #burlingtonnc

Grace

Grace was returned over a week ago from a home she’d been in for 4 years. Allergies of a child caused her displacement. She temp fostered with Sherry and Billy last week until her new foster @theaudreyshore returned from traveling over the holidays. I’m so grateful to these fosters for taking her in when we were faced with a sudden return in an already full rescue. Grace is 4 years old, born in the spring of 2020. We pulled her and her two sisters from a crowded rural shelter during the Covid pandemic. They were at risk of euthanasia. Grace is going to be fostering with a large cat friendly dog and a senior cat at Audrey’s. We hope to find her. Second chance forever home soon. She’s a petite smoky tabby/tuxedo and very unique beautiful markings.
