Carin' About the Strays Rescuing abandoned & orphaned kittens, providing them care & support, and adopting into forever homes Carinโ€™ About The Strays, depends solely on volunteers.

Nonprofit We are based out of Cookeville TN serving Putnam County. We specialize in pregnant females, orphaned kittens, injured animals which are treated at Ragland and Riley Veterinary Hospital . Our rescued animals are placed in a foster home, where they can be socialized and house trained, which gives them a better chance to be adopted, and make the adoption more successful. We are a Cat Rescue

, but will try to help dogs and other animals find the help they need. Our animals have come from environments that were not healthy for the animals such as abandoned animals, orphaned kittens, pregnant females or animals that were given up due to owner financial or other issues. We rely on sponsors and donations to pay for medical bills for our rescue animals. We are always looking for foster parents for our animals that are in need of a loving and caring home. Get Involved! Become a Foster Parent: Fostering animals is a rewarding experience! Many of the animals have had bad experiences with the human population and are scared and untrusting, by becoming a foster home you will be able to socialize and gain the animals trust, and in doing that they will be better prepared to be adopted into their forever homes. It is very rewarding when you recognize the difference you have made in the animals life. Donate can! We accept monetary donations and we also gladly accept pet carriers, cat toys, treats, food, and anything else that can help with the health and comfort of our animals while they are in our care. Any and all donations are appreciated. Contact: [email protected]

These three adorable gray kittens are still looking for their forever families! None of them are spoken for yet, and weโ€™d love for them to find their homes before their spay/neuter appointments. That way, they can go straight from foster care to your loving armsโ€”no stops at Petsmart condos needed! ๐Ÿ’•

These sweeties are ready to bring love, playfulness, and purrs into your life. Could one (or twoโ€ฆ or all three!) be your perfect match? ๐Ÿฑ

Meet Luther! ๐Ÿ–ค

Luther is a stunning 6-month-old male kitten with sleek, all-black fur and a heart full of love. This playful little guy has endless energyโ€”he adores his toys, zooming around the house, and engaging in fun play sessions. But beneath all that energy is a super sweet and affectionate soul who just wants to be loved.

Luther is a bit shy with new people at first, but once he feels safe, he blossoms into a cuddly, loving companion. He absolutely adores other cats and dogs and thrives in a home with furry friends who can show him love and companionship. In fact, he prefers the company of animals and finds comfort in their presence.

When mealtime rolls around, Luther can be quite the little talker, especially when he knows treats or wet food are on the menu! If youโ€™re looking for a playful, loving kitten who will be a devoted friend to your pets, Luther is the perfect match.

Are you ready to give this sweet boy the forever home he deserves? Apply to adopt Luther today!

When this family came to us wanting a kitten friend for their one-year-old cat, we suggested they consider adopting two kittens instead. Why? Because kittens thrive with a buddy who matches their energy, playfulness, and curiosity!

Well, letโ€™s just sayโ€ฆ we nailed it! These two adorable siblings are now living their best lives in their new home, playing nonstop, cuddling together, and even softening the heart of their older kitty sibling a little more every day. ๐Ÿ’•

Adopting two kittens isnโ€™t just funโ€”it also helps prevent single kitten syndrome, which can lead to behavioral issues when kittens donโ€™t have another feline friend to learn from. Plus, watching them grow and bond together is priceless!

If youโ€™ve been thinking about adding a loving companion to your family, weโ€™ve got plenty of adorable cats and kittens waiting to meet you. Let us help you find your purrr-fect match!
