In the shelter's words

Hi! My name is Buttercup and I am available for adoption! I was surrendered to RASKC on August 31, 2026 because my owner had too many cats. I am a shy gal that came in with a lot of other cats. I am still settling in here at the shelter, so I am very shy and shut down at this time. I am looking for a quiet home where I can settle in and take my time to get to know you. Since I was not showing well in the shelter I am currently in a foster home to decompress. Please fill out a foster interest form for the chance to meet me!

    In the shelter's words: Hi! My name is Burnadette and I am available for adoption. I was brought to RASKC on May 13, 2026. I had 4 kittens so I went into a wonderful foster home so I could continue being a mom to them! They are now grown so I am ready to find my forever family. My foster says this about me, "Bernie is an excellent athlete and a loyal friend. She would love to live with you and play laser pointer tag forever. Bernie was a street cat, but she's softened up and prefers being close to her people. She would do best in a quiet house with someone who is willing to take the time to help her get comfortable.

    Updated October 5, 2026

    In the shelter's words: Hi! My name is Freja and I am available for adoption. I was brought to RASKC on October 5, 2026. I was in a wonderful foster home for a bit and this is what they had to say about me, "Freja is a sweet, resilient girl who has had a pretty tough couple of years and deserves a safe, loving home of her own. Freja previously had a home but was abandoned at an apartment complex about two years ago. Since then, she has been surviving outside and has had multiple litters of kittens. Despite everything she's been through, she has very clearly remembered how to trust people and how to be someone's cat.

    In the shelter's words: Neutered Male Domestic Mediumhair Cat Hi! My name is Felix and I am available for adoption. I was originally brought to RASKC on August 22, 2026, then adopted and returned on October 2, 2026 because living in a home with a young child was too much for me. I have been very patient, playful and sweet while at RASKC, but I would do best in a home without younger children. I may be a little head shy at first, but if you offer me a churu I can't turn it down :) I am a medium-haired cat which means I will require frequent grooming, please keep that in mind!

  • Cardi

    domestic short-haired cat

    BabyFemale

    Updated August 31, 2026

    In the shelter's words: Hi there, My name is Cardi (short for Cardamom). I came in with my two siblings and was a very undersocial kitten. I went out to a foster home at the start of September where I learned that not everything is scary and that getting love (on my terms!!) is actually pretty nice. I am a purr machine once I get comfy with you and will just cuddle up for a day of love. I lived with a large cat and after a slow introduction with him I did really well! I also lived with a medium sized dog. He took longer for me to learn to trust but towards the end I was starting to get there.
