Kanga is a playful young girl with enormous beauty and loving potential. We have been watching her build self-esteem and become more outgoing and engaging with people.  This progress needs to continue in a new, forever home. Kanga is a Tortoiseshell, spayed, 3 years of age, fine with respectful cats, but terrified of dogs.  She is independent, while also being sweet and enjoying calm attention from people.

The gentle touch of a foster mom proved to me that humans can be kind.

Ivy's tipped right ear is the result of a local trap & release program for feral cats.  (Ears are tipped to indicate which of the feral cats have been spayed/neutered.) But this little beauty was still a kitten and so we agreed to take her and place her in a loving foster home to be socialized so that she could one day be adopted into a caring, forever home. Ivy's foster mom worked with her diligently for many months and succeeded in domesticating her. Ivy is a Tortoiseshell, now about 2 years of age and very sweet with soft-spoken people.  She enjoys perching as high as she can on tall cat tree furniture, independently away from the other cats. Please ask for her by name in Nevada SPCA's Cat Condo playrooms. Special thanks to Pet'ographique for this lovely portrait to help her get adopted.

Rejoice in the enchantment of felines like me.

One of the greatest benefits of the free-roaming Cat Condo playrooms, besides giving cats freedom and less stress, is that they get a say in who they interact with. Some cats will run to certain people, choosing them. Anna Lisa lights up when she sees children.  During recent tours of the Cat Condos by schoolchildren, she rubbed her back on their legs and gave them lick kisses on their hands and faces. Anna Lisa is a beautiful Tortoiseshell with light green eyes, spayed girl, about 3 years young. At the time of rescue she was huddled under a trailer, terrified.  She has now become a confident, majestic girl. Please visit and ask for Anna Lisa by name.

I love people.

She is a very social girl and would love a forever home where she can soak up loving adoration daily. Lala is spayed, just a year of age or so, and she has enchanting tortoiseshell coloring.  She is now ready for adoption and she anxiously awaits her knight in shining armor. We rescued Lala off the streets.  She was found roaming on the side of a very busy thorough-fare, terrified, close to The Las Vegas Strip. The dangers outdoors are a thing of her past.  This angel is content now to live strictly indoors for her safety and protection. Please visit Nevada SPCA's free-roaming Cat Condo playrooms and ask for Lala by name.

He dumped me because his wife loved me.

Update: Shady Lady was adopted on November 3rd! Shady Lady , a gorgeous girl in appearance and spirit, found herself a pawn in a troubled marriage. She was reportedly rejected by a jealous husband who feared his wife loved Shady Lady so much that it was "interfering" with their relationship. These innocent angels just want to be part of families, safe and cherished, but they usually lose their homes and lives due to dynamics in human relationships they cannot understand or control. Indeed, there is much to love about Shady Lady . She is a kind, gentle youngster with a curious nature. She is a Tortoiseshell, spayed, about 2 years of age, and ready to meet you today in Nevada SPCA's free-roaming Cat Condo playrooms, one of 200 rescued cats awaiting new forever homes. Please be sure to keep her strictly indoors only for her protection.
