Crowded House Kitten Rescue

We have been lucky enough to have dozens of cats come through our home on their way to forever homes. Each one touches our heart in some way and we love and miss them all, even if the forever home ends up someone’s barn or back as a member of the feral colony.

Athena

September 7, 2025

Athena is a lovey tortoise shell found on a friend’s porch. She is very sweet and if our experience with other torties is anything to go by, she’ll be quite the sassy one when she gets older!

adopted

Casper

September 7, 2025

Sometimes we call Casper “Tom Selleck” because of their very prominent mustache. They got the name Casper because they used to be called The Phantom when they were found on a friend’s porch. Originally given that name because they were scared of people and would never let you close them, once they met our other kittens and learned the wonders of a full belly, they definitely became the friendly ghost.

adopted

Finn

August 21, 2025

Finn is a neutered male. Finn was the final kitten from the park litter to get caught, always lingering close to mom and slow to follow the other kittens to explore the treats we left for him. Since getting caught, Finn has warmed up a bit and is the largest of the litter, maybe even part Maine Coon. Finn remains a bit skittish and will require dedication to win him over. He certinaly likes living indoors and having a full belly and we think that in time he could really warm up to someone willing to be patient with him.

adopted

Rusty

August 15, 2025

Rusty came to us from a neighbor who found them on a walk and knew that we rescued kittens. It turned out that they were the first of a litter of kittens found at a nearby park. They were skin and bones and had a cold when they arrived but otherwise in good health. Some hearty food and a soft place to sleep does wonders. They are extremely people-focused and demand to be held whenever possible, preferring to settle on your shoulder or chest for a good nap. I hope you don’t want to nap at the same time because their loud purrs may keep you awake!

adopted

Clem

June 6, 2025

We’re almost certain that Clem is Flame’s brother. He showed up on the same farm in almost the same way just under a year after Flame wandered in. He is quite possibly the sweetest kitten we’ve ever had in our home and that’s saying something. It’s no surprise that he found a home right away. He was adopted with fellow orphan, Sparky and his new owner is very excited to welcome them both into the family.

adopted

Sparky

June 4, 2025

Sparky showed up on campus but he wasn’t from the school feral colony. Instead he rode to school in the engine compartment of a staff member’s car and wasn’t discovered until he meowed for rescue. He’s very sweet and has now gone to a forever home with fellow orphan Clem where he’s now named “Bernie”.

adopted

Dosido

April 2, 2025

Dosido is the most people focused of Dolly’s kittens and they are always meowing at us to demand attention (or treats!). Unlike their sibling Thin Mint, Dosido isn’t all black and has a dark gray mane. We think they will grow up to be longer haired than their siblings. Like the rest of the litter, Dosido has learned from Dolly Momma to be a little wary of dogs, but is fascinated by them and we think they want to be friends.

adopted

Samoa

April 2, 2025

Samoa is the bravest kitten in the Dolly’s litter. They are always eager to play and explore and quick to run off and find new places to hide and climb during playtime. They still love to be held and pet as long as it’s on their schedule!

adopted

Tagalong

April 2, 2025

Tagalong is the runt of Dolly’s litter but they don’t let that hold them back! They are eager to play and wrestle with their siblings and love to play with toys. Tagalong is somewhat quicker to relax when being held but doesn’t want to miss out on any fun, or treats!

adopted

Thin Mint

April 2, 2025

Thin Mint is a sweet and energetic kitten. They are one of the two black kittens in Dolly’s litter (their sibling has more visible gray) but there are traces of some tabby stripes. Thin Mint is very energetic and loves doing zoomies with the others during free play time. They’re also a great climber and love having a high vantage point to watch over things. They also are very people focused as long as you’re not too tall. Tall things can be scary… until you get scritches behind the ears.

adopted

Trefoil

April 2, 2025

Trefoil is a sweet kitten from Dolly’s litter. They love to explore (but often can’t find their way back) and spend time with their momma.

released

Dolly

April 1, 2025

Affectionately known as The Dolly Momma, Dolly was found by a friend of a friend in their back yard. She had decided that tucked under their patio furniture cover was a great place to have her litter of kittens. The kittens were less than two weeks old when we found them but we were able to safely trap them all and bring them home where they could be safe and warm. Since then, Dolly has shown herself to be a very caring mom and has raised her little ones into five adorable and energetic kittens.

adopted

Blossom

October 23, 2024

This is one of four kittens found near the ceramics facility. We think these kittens are slightly older than when we usually find them but it turns out to not be an issue because they’re all total snuggle bugs and are well socialized. Despite their size indicating they’re older, these kittens act a bit young so it’s possible that they’re Maine Coons and are actually 2-3 weeks younger than their weight would imply. Either way, all of these kittens are loving and people-focused. They’re quick to curl up with you on the couch or with their litter mates.

Chonkers

September 2, 2024

Chonkers is the biggest of the auto shop kittens rescued in early September 2024. Since then, they’ve blossomed into the biggest of their litter and also the most independent. Very people-focused and always welcoming of affection, they tend to get annoyed if you take them away from play time… cuddles can wait!

adopted

Tater Tot

September 2, 2024

Tater Tot is the most curious of the auto shop kittens and is sure to steal your heart! They are extremely people-focused and love nothing more than cuddling up with their favorite humans. With their big, beautiful eyes and soft, fluffy fur, this kitten is an absolute delight. As soon as you pick them up, they’ll start purring contentedly, happy to soak up all the attention.

adopted

Dusk

September 2, 2024

Dusk is one of PJ’s kittens and came to us with their siblings at only ten days old. One of their siblings is also a little black kitten and we know one of the two is a boy but since they look so much alike we’re not sure which one! Dusk is the smaller of the two black siblings but that doesn’t stop them from going full-tilt when it’s playtime. Dusk is particularly fond of Persephone and is often seen snuggled in for a nice with their sister.

adopted

Felix

September 2, 2024

Felix is one of PJ’s kittens and came to us with his siblings at only ten days old. He is one of the two siamese boys and is very outgoing. He loves to wrestle and is always eager to explore but also loves settling down for a good nap when the playing is done.

adopted

Gio

September 2, 2024

Gio is one of PJ’s kittens and came to us with his siblings at only ten days old. He is one of the two siamese boys and like his brother is quite the adventurer. He was the first of the litter to venture out from the birthing bed and since then hasn’t stopped exploring! Like all of this litter, he’s also quite the attention bug and is always eager for some cuddles.

adopted

Inky

September 2, 2024

Inky is one of PJ’s kittens and came to us with their siblings at only ten days old. One of their siblings is also a little black kitten and we know one of the two is a boy but since they look so much alike we’re not sure which one! Rambunctious and a talented climber, Inky takes playtime very seriously. They are very drawn to people and will stand there demanding some affection and the love to be carried around.

adopted

Itty-Bitty

September 2, 2024

Itty-Bitty was the most outgoing of the auto shop kittens but also the runt. It’s important to share his story so everyone knows how much he was loved, but please be warned that it’s not a happy ending.

adopted

Persephone

September 2, 2024

Persephone is one of PJ’s kittens and came to us with her siblings at only ten days old. She is the runt of the litter and an absolute sweetheart. A little shier than her bold siblings but still eager to play and very eager for human attention, Persephone is an absolute sweetheart and will be a perfect pet!

adopted

Roxy

September 2, 2024

Roxy is one of the auto shop kittens found in early September 2024. They were found with three litter mates right as they were emerging from their den and starting to explore the bigger world. Luckily we also caught their mom and were able to get her spayed and rereleased. Roxy is the lightest colored of their siblings, sporting a grayish coat and more white than the others. They are incredibly people-focused and always meowing at us to come cuddle them. As soon as you pick them up they start purring and love being carried around.

adopted

Gretel

July 15, 2024

Gretel came in with their litter mate Hazel. They showed up on campus suddenly and the volunteers who feed the cats notified us that people were playing with them. Because they are so comfortable with humans we think they were raised off-campus but their markings are characteristic of the tabbies in the colony. Our best guess is that they were picked up very young, raised in someone’s home, and then dumped back on campus.

Spider Lily

July 14, 2024

Spider Lily was rescued from a small trailer park that was going to be demolished. He was found with his 3 siblings (two tabbies and one gray) and his mother (small, sweet, and all black) at approximately 8 weeks old. We have his mother with us now (she has been tested, vaccinated, and spayed - she’s also looking for a loving home).

adopted

Espresso

July 8, 2024

Espresso arrived with their two siblings (Tuna and Firefly) and their momma. Espresso is full of energy and eager to play now that they have a full belly and some good rest.

adopted

Firefly

July 8, 2024

Firefly arrived with their two siblings (Tuna and Espresso) and their momma. A little shy at first but they warmed up quickly and have been very eager to have some comfort and constant food supply.

adopted

Tuna

July 8, 2024

Tuna arrived with their two siblings (Firefly and Espresso) and their momma. Eager to stand out from their twin siblings, Tuna woke up ready to play after a hearty breakfast. The dogs interest them and they love sniffing them as they walk past the crate.

adopted

Flame

July 4, 2024

Flame was found entirely by themself with no sign of momma or litter mates. Its been some of the hottest days of the year so we fear the worst, but this spunky little one is quite the survivor! Surprisingly mobile for their age/size and entirely comfortable with humans, cats, and dogs alike, this little one has a real independent streak. Flame was almost immediately adopted by (Cheeto and they have become fast friends.
