Give a feline a family this Friday

Each week, the Houston Cats Examiner will tell you about a few kitties in need of a loving home. Millions of animals are put down each year, but by adopting versus buying from a pet store or breeder, you can help.

Please check out the "Adopt a Cat" box in the right-hand column of this page for links to local shelters with more deserving felines in need of families.

* The Houston Cats Examiner thanks each shelter for use of information and photos and for simply helping animals on a daily basis.

Tipper

I was tossed aside like a piece of trash and left for dead until someone found me and brought me to a vet for a check up. That person then found out that I had a vision problem, so they abandoned me at the vet's office. No one seems to think that a kitty can get around the house with bad vision. Well they are wrong! I prefer a one story house, no young children, someone who doesn't move the furniture around a lot, and must have a kind heart. I enjoy playing with shinny things, sitting in the window getting a sun tan and curling up in your lap while you watch television with me. I am looking for love.

I'm a three-year-old Siamese boy. I'm laid back and very independent, and I like to oversee eveything. I am such a handsome boy and will look into your eyes with my pretty blues.

Tuesday

I am a 1-year-old domestic medium-hair calico girl searching for a purrrfect forever home. After being thrown from a moving vehicle, I consider myself lucky to have another chance at life. Even though I've had a rough life so far, I'm VERY sweet-natured and enjoy the affections of kind humans. I would love to be your friend every day of the week and for years to come! 

Want to adopt Tuesday? Please contact the Citizens for Animal Protection at 281-497-0591 or visit them on the Web at http://www.cap4pets.org/.  

 Mickey

I'm a six-year-old brown tabby boy who loves getting petted. I will start off timid and quiet, but if you approach me and speak to me gently, I will warm up to you. I'm a cat who is well worth your patience! I will need lots of love and time to settle into my new home ... preferably a quiet, all-adult household. Another non-aggressive cat is fine too, because I'm very gentle.

Want to adopt Mickey? Please contact the Homeless Pet Placement League by calling (713) 862-7387 or visit them online at http://www.hppl.org/

I'm a beautiful long-haired tortoiseshell girl, and I'm only about six-months old! I would love to have a home where someone would have time to play with me. I'd also make a great companion for another kitty. I've been at the shelter for two months already, so please come get me outta here!

Want to adopt Peggy? Please call the Houston Humane Society at 713-433-6421 or visit them on the Web at http://www.houstonhumane.org/.
