Saving Southern Kitties

10/31/2026

Happy Halloween from all of us at SSK and sweet little tuxedo boy Sylvester who has decided to be Tweety for Halloween. 🤣🐾

Sylvester is waiting for his person or people to come. He is a sweet young fella , low key, playful and loves a cuddle. He can be a bit nervous with the little kids so older kids 12+ are probably better suited. He had been in foster with Secret and likes other kitties so we're sure he'd be a great friend to your kitty.

Come out to Rivergate PetSmart in Charlotte NC and meet sweet Sylvester!

🐾🐱Introducing Louise...( aka Weezie )🐱🐾

This little lady landed in a local shelter injured and needed her back leg amputated. You wouldn't even notice she is so quick and gets around fabulously.

Louise is just over a year and a fun and playful girl. She can get over stimulated and will do a little play bite , so we feel kids 12 and over will be better suited for her. She is snuggling a lot more with her foster Dad and wants nothing more than her forever family.

She has played well with other kitties but can feel overwhelmed at times with younger kitties and will swat giving them a message that she's had enough. We feel an older calmer pup should be ok.

Louise is a really nice girl learning her way around on 3 legs and doing great!

She'll be making her Halloween debut with her foster dad tomorrow, Saturday October 31st from 1:00 to 3:30 p.m. at Rivergate PetSmart in the Steele Creek area of Charlotte NC.

Come out and meet Louise!

Sweet girl Secret has really captured the hearts of our volunteers. She has really come out of her shell and is just a wonderful little lady. She's getting overlooked and honestly we aren't sure why.
When picking a kitty really consider the personality of a cat and what would be a good match for your family.

Beautiful Secret wants to share all of her secrets with you. This just over a year old little gal is such a sweet and quiet young lady. She likes other kitties as she's been friends when Sylvester when in her foster home. He is also still available. Kids over age 6 are probably better suited for her. Little ones surprise her.

Come visit Secret at the adoption center at Petsmart at Rivergate mornings or evenings when volunteers are in and fall in love with this sweetheart!

Good tips

cats have sensitive hearing. Pay attention to the tone of voice (and volume) you use when calling or connecting with your cat.

Beautiful personality plus boy Harvey has moved into the kitty center at our Petsmart at Rivergate Shopping Center in Charlotte NC.

Harvey likes other kitties but does need younger kitty friends around his age (he's just over a year) as he likes to play, chase and be chased. That can be too much for an older kitty. If you're seeking a playmate for your young kitty he may be just the guy. Harvey needs time to adjust to his new surroundings so cat experienced owners please. He likes being where his people are but doesn't necessarily like being picked up; but he'll happily sit next to you on the sofa. Harvey is curious and smart. We think he'll do fine with a kitty friendly pup as well. Harvey has been a well behaved guest at his foster home and has enjoyed his playtime with other young kitties.

Come meet Harvey mornings or evenings when volunteers are in at the kitty Center.

It may seem like a little thing, and you may not even realize the times you've ignored your cat's body language, but this is a huge factor in trust-building.

Cats are particular about the conditions of their litter box, and many are particular about their food. Others are particular about having access to certain places in the home, toy preferences, among many other things. Is there something your cat is very particular about?

🎶🎙Introducing Jolene...🎶🎙

Watch out ladies she just may steal your man.
This little 5.5 month old petite beauty will be coy and shy at first, but once she warms up and feels comfortable she is a real sweetheart.

Jolene is easy going, likes other kitties and would be a good friend to another younger kitty like her.
She may prefer older kids to toddlers and we're sure she will be fine with calm pups.

Seeking a purrfect little friend? Jolene may just be the one! Come visit her at the kitty Center at Petsmart at Rivergate Shopping Center in Charlotte NC. Volunteers are in mornings and evenings.
