Though much of Ari Gato’s past life remains a mystery, here at the rescue, he is a sweet lovebug who is always up for attention. He has a mighty meow that he uses to call you into the room, and likes to rub his whiskers all over you and make biscuits with his paws. Ari is a fairly laid back kitty, and has been fine with respectful dogs and very disinterested cats. Though he enjoys attention, he can get overwhelmed by lots of activity from small children. Ari Gato has captured our hearts, and we know you will fall for him, too!

Ari Gato is microchipped and fully vetted.

Originally from eastern Washington, Bella is now searching for her forever home in the Seattle area. This adorable cat has a big personality! She likes to chat and roll around on her back in her blankets. A mix of sweet and sassy, Bella enjoys affection, and is very clear when she has had enough. She is also very good about taking her meds. Though we are unsure how she is with dogs, Bella coexists fine with respectful cats. She would do best in a home with no young children. Do you have room in your heart for Bella?

In his foster home, he relishes in receiving lots of pets and affection, and he has a loud and lovely purr! At this time, we are unsure how Freddie is with other cats and dogs; he may do well with older, respectful children, in a quiet and peaceful environment. Do you have room in your home and heart for this wonderful kitty?

Izzy made her way to our rescue after her elderly owner passed away. Now in our care, she is making tremendous strides! Extremely shy at first, Izzy was uncertain about us humans, but now, she’s decided we’re pretty great. She loves chin scratches and attention, and will make muffins and purr away. We are very excited for her to go to a quiet home where she can feel safe and loved…just like she deserves! 

Izzy is microchipped and fully vetted.

Lilly and Jumper are bonded littermates who are searching for their forever home in the greater Seattle area. While Lilly tends to adjust quickly and is very outgoing, Jumper takes more time to get to know you before gladly accepting affection. These two are quite entertaining to watch; they are both fairly energetic and enjoy running around the cat room and playing tag. Lilly and Jumper prefer a home with no children or other cats; we are unsure how they are with dogs at this time.

Lilly and Jumper are microchipped and fully vetted.

Mashed Potato is a special kitty looking for an equally special permanent foster home. She takes daily medications for seizures; due to the effects of her seizure history and medications, it’s sometimes difficult to read her feelings. She has a calm, quiet, and sweet demeanor, and readily receives human affection when she’s not napping away in a plush bed with a heating pad. She also enjoys batting at her own shadow. Mashed Potato coexists peacefully with respectful cats and dogs. Do you have room in your heart for this little potato?

Meet Masika! This kitty is searching for her forever home in the Seattle area.

Masika greatly enjoys receiving pets and attention from our staff and volunteers. She likes to chat, and often follows her human caretakers around the cat room to see if she can help. Though we are unsure how Masika feels about dogs, she is not a fan of other cats and prefers a quiet home with older children (if any). Masika has captured our hearts, and we know she will capture yours, too!

After Nilla’s owner passed away, this sweet kitty found her way to Emerald City Pet Rescue. Nilla absolutely loves people and is very outgoing and friendly. She likes to cuddle with you on the couch, hang out on your lap, and sleep under the covers! In her foster home, she happily follows them around to see if she can help. Nilla prefers a home with no other cats so she can be the star of the show. Because she is mostly blind, for her safety, she would do best in a home with no children.

Once he trusts you, he is very sweet and enjoys belly rubs and being brushed. He also likes to meow to ask for pets! Oz is very good about using his feline inhaler (and expects a treat after each use!). Oz can coexist peacefully with other respectful cats, but would do best in a quiet home with no children or dogs.

Rocket arrived at Emerald City Pet Rescue when his owner was unable to care for him. This sweet kitty enjoys the company of humans and likes to take long catnaps. A good mix of laid back and silly, Rocket makes us all laugh with his goofy side as well -- he likes to chew on brooms and will sometimes kick his leg like a dog when you pet him! Rocket coexists peacefully with other cats and dogs, and would prefer a quieter home with older children. Is Rocket that special kitty you’ve been searching for?

Special Considerations: Available as permanent foster. Prescription urinary diet; incontinent due to spinal abnormality.

Originally hailing from California, Sheetara is a very special kitty who is currently available as a permanent foster. This talkative and teensy lady is very active. She loves to play and will chase balls across the room and pounce on toys hidden in her Ripple Rug. Though she can be extremely loving, Sheetara’s behavior is very unpredictable, and she scratches with very little warning. Due to this, it is best that there be no children in her future home. Sheetara has a spinal abnormality that results in urinary incontinence (something that can happen in her breed), and so needs a person who can provide her with time, patience, and, of course, love!

Sheetara is microchipped and fully vetted.

Stinky holds a dear place in our hearts, and we hope he finds a loving home soon!

Once she trusts you, she will rub her face all over your hands, drool on you, and make biscuits on her bed! Stormy is looking for a peaceful home with no other cats or children; she requests an adopter who will give her plenty of time and patience to come out of her shell. Do you have room in your home and heart for sweet Stormy?

Special Considerations: Prefers a home with no children; recently completed physical therapy after pelvic surgery

Originally from California, Summer is searching for her forever home in the Seattle area! This little kitty was found with a pelvic fracture. She has since received surgery and completed physical therapy; potential adopters should keep in mind that she may have to restart her physical therapy in the future, should symptoms resurface. Sweet and energetic, Summer loves to play and cuddle with cat friends, and so asks for a home with one or more felines. At this time, we are unsure how she is with dogs.

Summer is microchipped and fully vetted.
