MIA

Mia is a beautiful female Siamese/tortoiseshell mix. She has blue eyes and mostly the Siamese appearance. We do not know her actual age, but she seems to be a young adult, 1 to 2 years old. She is friendly with people, and we will be learning more about her response to other animals as time goes on.

SAM

Hi! My name is Sam, and I'm a 3-month-old (as of 8/18/2010), male grey/white kitten with loads of love to give. I was found as a stray when I followed a pretty little girl home from school. I kept pouncing after her feet until she picked me up and brought me home. I have loads of love to give, and am extremely laid back. I'm in a foster home now with 3 large (over 50 pounds) dogs, and I find them very amusing, and they don't bother me at all. I also live with a large female feral cat, and I'm even winning her over! I am so sweet and loveable that everyone falls in love with me, and I love everyone. I'm a purring machine that loves to snuggle around your neck and sleep next to you at night. If there is an empty lap around, I grab it! I love children, and I love to play. I'm going to be a loyal, loving companion for that special family that chooses me.

SAPPHIRE

Sapphire is a gorgeous, but overweight, rare dilute tortoiseshell female, and also a Manx, which is to say, of course, that she is tailless. We think she is about two years old. She is fine with being picked up and not at all skittish in the presence of strange people or another cat.

MAX

Max is a declawed, blondish tabby. At about 9 years old, he’s not even middle-aged for a cat these days. He has no health problems. We have taken him out to adoptathons in very busy, loud places, and he just curls up in a lap or in a basket and greets everyone who comes by. When he’s tired of that, he goes to sleep in spite of the noise and people around him. When you meet him in his home, he’ll come forward and say, "Wow! Company!" Max is fine with older children and with dogs, but he has hidden from very young children. He tolerates other cats well. Max currently lives with a single, older lady whom he follows all around the house. He could go to any type of home and be happy--and make a person or family happy.

BIG JOHN

Big John is one very big handsome kitty -- 15+ pounds-- and was born in April 2008. He’s best characterized as a white cat with patches of black -- the black on his back looks like wings, and the black on his head looks like a jaunty little beret -- maybe a French angel? John is a lovable cat, who just wants to be with his people and be petted and cuddled. This cat is not afraid of strangers -- he sees them as other opportunities to receive more attention. At adoptathons, he’s the cat we can have on harness, sitting on a table or sitting in a lap -- he doesn’t mind all the strangers cooing and petting him. He loves to cuddle -- in a lap or in bed. Many times when he’s sleeping, he stretches cleeeeear out on his back, with his hind legs extended and his front paws sort of dangling in the air. He likes to play, and will entertain himself with toys, which he ends up putting under the various pieces of furniture for his foster parents to retrieve (thus providing good exercise for all!) John gets along with most other cats -- most predominantly cats who are younger than he is. In his foster home, he enjoys playing with several of the other cats. Although he does engage in active play, he really loves "sitting around," probably the reason he’s such a big boy. This is a VERY smart cat -- he learns very quickly. When one talks to him, he watches and listens attentively. Because he’s so big and can play pretty energetically, we feel he’d be best in a home where all the residents are of older elementary school age or older.

ODIE

Odie is a sweet, loving brown tabby with big green eyes. He wants to be the center of attention and is very verbal--he will talk to you when you talk to him. He gets along well with other cats and a big dog (over 50 pounds) where he is currently being fostered. Odie was a big boy when he came to us and has taken some weight off, but he'll always be a big boy, as he is big-framed. Odie currently eats both dry and wet food, and likes both. He loves to play with all types of toys but really likes to play when you will play with him. He is a very personable kitty and seems to like both females and males and will be anyone’s shadow who will allow him to do so. If you have company, this big boy won't be hiding--he'll want to be in the center of the action!

BELLA

INTRODUCING THE AMAZING "PORTIA BELLA"! -- Faster than a speeding ball! More powerful than shoestring and shoe combined! Able to leap multiple dogs in a single bound! ("Look! Over on the couch!" "It's a bird!" "It's a plane!" "It's Bella!")... Yes, it's Bella ... visitor who came to her foster house with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal cats! Bella ... who can convince children (and full grown men) to do her will, just by a soulful glance and her incredible mind power, able to stop a treat with just the twitch of the paw, and who, disguised as a playful cat, fights a never-ending battle for truth, justice, and the American Cat way! ------
Bella has socialized very well and, as a young cat, is VERY curious -- which tends to get her in trouble -- and VERY playful. She romps, runs and has fun all day. Her FAVORITE game is "find out what's under the covers." She is very gentle and rarely uses her claws when she knows she is playing with a person or animal. She is not going to be an "all-the-time lap-kitty," but she is very much a lover. She visits her foster mom and dad on the couch and in bed throughout the night and will lay her head on her paws so she can get as close as possible (very cute). She would not be happiest as the only animal in a home, as she is very social, and very tolerant of all animals (one of her foster brothers is a schnauzer). Young children would have to be considerate of the fact she is young also, but she will be incredible as she mellows some.

LUCY

My name is Lucy and I’m a female, about 4 years old. I’m a short-haired, dark tortoiseshell. I’m spayed, very playful and sweet, and love to sit on laps and snooze. I adore human attention, but for a while I didn't like other cats. I did make friends, though, with another SARG kitty in my foster home. I think I might be o.k. with a dog, too. Wouldn’t you like to get to know me? I promise you a lifetime of cuddles.

LITTLE BIT

Little Bit is a kitten who was found as a stray in mid-March. She loves everyone and loves to sit in any lap that will have her. She is well-mannered and litter-trained, and not afraid of other cats, nor of large dogs. She is a small, female calico, mostly white with orange and brown markings, and an orange-striped tail. As of the end of March, she is still being treated for the skin problem on her face, but when she is healed, she will be ready to be someone's wonderful little companion.

DIAMOND

Diamond is a pure white, little girl kitty who loves people. She’s small, and the vet believes she’s about a year old or less. She wants most of all to be with someone, preferably being held--a real lover. This little one impressed the shelter personnel so much that they considered keeping her as a resident shelter cat--an honor for a stray. Diamond has some unusual characteristics. She’s a polydactyl with excess toes on both front paws. In addition--as is the case with some pure white cats--she’s probably deaf, or nearly so. However, being deaf is not a problem for indoor cats--which all SARG adoptees are. She doesn’t mind dogs.

LADY JANE GREY

Lady Jane is a year-old (as of late June, 2010) cat whose original elderly owner had to surrender her due to major medical problems. She is a rare dilute tortoiseshell with medium to long fur--an absolute beauty to see in person. Her temperament is just as wonderful as her looks. This little one just wants to purr in someone’s arms--she loves being held, but looks around and notices everything going on around her. Lady Jane appears to get along with other cats and seems not to mind dogs. She’d probably be fine in any type of home, but might love a home where she can be around people much of the time.
