🐾 Kessie 💛

Kessie has come such a long way during her time at Wishbone House. While she may seem a little shy at first, she loves gentle pets and quickly shows her sweet side once she feels comfortable.

We think Kessie would enjoy going home with her friend Roo, but she may do just fine on her own with a patient family willing to give her a little time to settle in. Watching her confidence grow has been a joy, and we can't wait for her to find a home of her own.

💕Caretaker Tuesday💕

This week let’s hear from Annelise!

“Midnight is a beautiful black cat with a gentle soul and a heart full of love.
She may be a little shy when you first meet her, but with patience, kindness, and a few gentle pets, she quickly begins to warm up and show her sweet personality. Midnight
absolutely loves attention and enjoys being petted once she feels comfortable.

She is a calm, loving companion who would thrive in a quiet, caring forever home where she can continue building trust and sharing affection.
Midnight is looking for someone who will give her the love and reassurance she deserves — and in return, she'll reward you with loyalty, companionship, and plenty of cuddles.

If you're looking for a sweet, affectionate cat to welcome into your family, Midnight may be the perfect match.”

🐾 Meet Uno 🖤🤍

Like our boy previous resident, Stripes, Uno has been through leg surgery…and just like Stripes he’s proving to everyone how resilient cats can be. He may always be a little bow-legged, but that doesn’t stop him from living life like the playful kitten he is!

Right now, Uno is recovering in foster care, where he’s been enjoying birdwatching from cozy window perches and soaking up as much human attention as possible. He’s a true people-cat and definitely prefers company over being left alone for too long. Thankfully, he’s healing well and will be back at Wishbone House as soon as he’s back on his feet. 😉

This special guy is looking for a home where he can keep healing, keep playing, and keep being loved exactly as he is.

⚫️ Dottie ⚫️

It’s a mystery to us why this social girl is still ruling the Wishbone House. Dottie loves attention and human interaction but she also loves to find a comfy nap spot to be all by herself. If you can’t find her you can always crack open a can of cat food and she will magically appear!

Come and visit Dottie or check out other adoptable cats on our website: www.wishbonepetrescue.org

🐈‍⬛ Linguine 🍝

This black kitten may be mistaken for Nero (our other black noodle kitty) but he has a personality all his own! It took him a while to warm up to Wishbone House life but now he will gladly take any attention you are willing to give. He especially loves hanging with his buddy, Rigatoni!

💕Caretaker Tuesday!!💕

This week is Carol and her sweet boy, Gumdrop!
