This is Vinnie, and he needs a home and a family to call his own. Vinnie is a very active cat who is inside a cat rescue filled with special needs cats, shy cats and elderly cats that don't want to play with him and find him to be too much for them. Because Vinnie likes to play rough, he's scared all the cats away, and here at the rescue he lives on his own. He loves to play with his toys and come out of his cage to run around, but he gets upset with us when its time to go back in his cage. He desperately wants to have a HOME to have free reign in, but to do that, we have to find him a family that can keep up with how active he is!

In November of 2023, Vinnie tried to break into the Lobby of the Frankenmuth Bavarian Inn Lodge! He heard it was a really nice hotel and was in need of somewhere to stay so he thought he’d try to live there, just to find out that cats aren’t allowed in human hotels, and he wound up in the office of Jim Engel, the Lodge’s COO. Jim Engel’s wife happens to be the president of Pet Angel, and that’s how he wound up here with us! We did some investigating and found out that Vinnie was a stray cat that was being cared for by a family who experienced a house fire and was no longer living in their home. They didn’t intend on keeping him, were just feeding him, and that’s when we knew Vinnie had nowhere to go! So we got him all vetted, and now he’s looking for his very own forever home so he can have a happily ever after to his crazy life story so far!

Here's some things about Vinnie:

🛝 Vinnie loves to play, and he plays hard with his friends! He likes to run, climb, and chase toys! He's a big fan of yeowww toys, toys on sticks, springs, crinkle balls, and kick sticks! We think that Vinnie will benefit more in a home, because he'll have space to run and play! Here, he is cooped up in a cage, so when he does come out, he has a lot of pent up energy!

💓 When he gets that energy out, Vinnie loves to let you pet his head and under his chin! BOY, does he purr! He just needs to burn his energy first!

🤼‍♂️ Vinnie likes to wrestle with his human friends! Here at Pet Angel, he hasn't been able to make a kitty friend yet, because most of our other animals are special needs or shy and can't keep up with how playful Vinnie is!

📣 Vinnie likes to talk! He will greet you when you get home, follow you around your house, and tell you all about his day!

🐈 Vinnie hasn't made other kitty friends here at Pet Angel, and is currently being housed solo. We have tried, but he is an alpha cat who plays too rough for our other kitty friends, and they don't understand he's trying to play. If you have a cat who would accept an alpha cat, and can keep up with a wreslte-y boy, they may work well together with a proper introduction! Otherwise, we would recommend Vinnie is a single kitty with a family who can give him a lot of toys to keep him busy!

🐕 Vinnie does not get along with Dogs. Living as a stray, he had to defend himself against dogs, so he will not get along with them anymore.

👧🏼👦🏽 Because Vinnie is playful with humans, he cannot go to a home with children under the age of 12.

✈️🚗 Vinnie does not travel well, and needs a family that will keep him at home, unless he’s going to a vet appointment!

🏠 Vinnie is looking for a strictly indoor only home, where his family will NOT let him outside ever again! He's ready to be a spoiled house cat!

🩺 Vinnie is fixed, microchipped, up to date on all his shots, and negative for FIV/FELV! He's fully vetted, and ready to go home with you!

Hakeem is looking for a home where he can be the only cat!
This sweet boy is a LOVER! He adores his humans, and his catnip toys! Hakeem loves to lay on his fluffy beds, roll around on the floor with a yeowww toy in his grasp, and cuddle with his stuffed cow (that came with him to Pet Angel from his former home!)
Hakeem came to our rescue very scared, and took a little time to come around because he doesn't like the other cats in our building. Now that he's been here awhile, he's really bloomed & is no longer scared! But one thing that hasn't changed is he still doesn't like the other cats, so we keep him seperated from our other cats and he's so much happier that way. Thats why we're looking for a home for Hakeem where he'll be the only pet!
This mini- panther will be your greatest companion! He loved to sleep in bed with his former owner, loves to play with stick toys, and is a big fan of treats and food! You and Hakeem are going to have the best life together... you just need to come adopt him!
To meet Hakeem and see if you're the human he's been waiting for, please submit an application online at https://petangeladoption.com/adopt-a-cat

Gus (floppy ears) & Greta (Prick Ears) are up for adoption and looking for a home together, within the state of Michigan, with an experienced German Shepard owner! Please read their entire bio below before submitting an application to adopt!

Gus and Greta wandered up the driveway of Pet Angel’s board members home right before thanksgiving and acted like they’ve lived there their whole lives. It was evident the pair were once wearing collars, but were not anymore. Our board member scanned them for microchips, and they were chipped! But upon further investigation, the microchips were not registered. In fact, they were completely scrubbed, and didn’t even show us which organization originally microchipped them. After a weekend of investigating, we were able to find their adoption post from an Animal Control in February, which led us to their names and their former owner. Upon investigating their former owners page, we saw they were trying to rehome the pair in October. We reached out, and at first, the former owner denied owning Gus & Greta. Then, they confessed that they could no longer care for Gus & Greta and asked us to rehome them. All this to say, it is evident that Gus and Greta were dumped near Frankenmuth by their former owner, and they scrubbed their microchips so the dogs could not be linked back to them. Other members of the community reached out reporting they had seen Gus and Greta wandering for at least 2 weeks before our board member had them, so the poor duo had been abandon and left to their own for quite a while. We reached out to the animal control they were originally adopted from and were able to get their medical history from them, but this animal control did not have space to take them back in. They were originally found by this animal control wandering together as strays, with no information on where they came from before that. So twice now, Gus and Greta have been left wandering on their own in the wild, which makes us so sad because they are big human lovers!! While we are a cat only rescue, we did not want to leave Gus and Greta without anywhere to go and we don’t want them to ever be wandering in the wild again, so we stepped up and are now their guardians and are taking the role of placing them into a FUREVER family very seriously.

Both Gus and Greta love people and are friendly lovers toward humans! From the moment they met our board member and her family, they wanted pets and to follow them around. Gus is especially fond of people and wants to give them his affection and attention. Greta likes it too, but Gus is the one who will steal your hand from petting her with a sneaky snout nudge. He loves to offer you his paws while being pet, while Greta likes to reach up to hug your neck with her front paws and give you face kisses. She likes to give attention before her breakfast, and Greta REALLY likes her food! So much that she will try to finish Gus’s food if he takes too long. Gus prefers to eat in the same room as Greta and doesn’t like to eat separately from her, but they need to have some distance between them because you know… she’ll finish her food first and then steal his food! Giving Gus his bowl first, followed by Greta a few feet away, gives him a bit of a head start. They are not free-feeders, as they’d eat all the food you give them, so they need to be on a feeding schedule.

Both Gus and Greta love squeaky balls SO much! Their favorite toy is the ChuckIt! Ultra Ball! Gus will even play fetch with himself with his squeaky ball! The two also enjoy bully sticks! However, both Gus and Greta should not be left unattended with destructible toys like toys with stuffing, tennis balls and toys made of non-durable materials, because they will destroy them pretty quickly and you do not want them to ingest any of these materials. Indestructible toys are the best option for them! Both Gus and Greta know the command “Sit” and can recall (although, we don’t recommend they are off leash in a non-fenced in area, due to their history of being left wandering twice before.) As we said before, both dogs love to be around people and will follow you ALL over the place! They really enjoy running outside, and love playing in the snow! As far as we can tell, the two are potty trained as long as they are regularly taken outside. Keep in mind, there will be an adjustment period as they get used to your schedule and you learn how often they need to be let out, but once you and Greta and Gus get into a rhythm with a potty schedule after they are home for a few weeks, they should have no issues (but give them grace during the introduction period into your home!)

Pet Angel’s Vet is an experienced German Shepard owner, and she recommended that we purchase Wisdom DNA Tests for both dogs. These tests will not only give us their exact ages and be able to tell us if the two are biologically related, but it will also tell us if Gus and Greta have any genetic conditions that may need extra care as they age. Our vet is suspicious that Greta is showing signs of Hip Dysplasia already. There are also other genetic conditions that German Shepard’s may have, and our vet also wants to make sure that we place them with a family who will be dedicated to their medical care to ensure they are never dumped, left wandering, or end up in a rescue again. We have already conducted the DNA test, but it can take up to 4 weeks for us to get the results back. We do not want to wait that long to find them a home, so we will move forward with an adoption prior to test results coming back and will share the results with the adopters once we get them. We are looking for an owner that will be dedicated to Gus and Greta regardless of the test results and give them any veterinary care they may need in the future if they do have any genetic conditions that require extra vet care. This is why we are looking for an owner that has experience with German Shepherds already.

Based off the veterinary history we were given from their previous animal control, Gus is estimated to be 3 years old and Greta is estimated to be 4 years old, however our vet guesses this may be incorrect and they may be slightly older. The DNA test we have done on the two will give us their exact age. The vet information we were given from their previous animal control states that Gus was suspected to have an allergy to fleas based off of patches of fur he was missing when they got him in January of 2025, so it is important he gets monthly flea prevention (he is currently not missing any fur, but he also does not have fleas and is on monthly flea prevention with us to ensure he doesn’t get those itchy bugs.)

Gus and Greta have met other large dogs (one adult female, one male puppy) through a proper dog introduction and had no issues. It is important to understand how to properly let dogs meet. First meetings should be made outside the home (at the meet and greet) on a leash. Watch for their body language and let them learn each other through sniffs. Then, all dogs should be taken on a walk together with the dogs at the same length together (no dogs infront of each other.) Between Gus and Greta, Greta is the alpha of the two.

Both Gus and Greta are fixed, microchipped (which we have re-registered and are now linked to Pet Angel) up to date on all their shots, and are receiving monthly heart guard and flea prevention. They are friendly with kids, but due to Greta’s jumping up to put her paws on your shoulders, should not be placed in a home with young children. Your children should also be familiar and comfortable around large dogs that like to give shoulder “hugs.” Our vet has recommended that Gus and Greta are not placed in a home with small dogs or cats.

We are dedicated to finding the perfect family for Gus and Greta, and applications are now open to apply for the bonded pair. Applications will be helped in order of the best fit for the duo so if you decide to submit an application, please take your time filling out your application and ensure all information is correct and filled out with detail, as it will help us determine the order of applications to consider. If your application passes the initial inspection, we will conduct a phone interview with you, and check both a personal and vet reference (and if you rent, a landlord check) before approving your application for a meet and greet. If your application for adoption is approved, we require everyone who lives in your home to come to the meet and greet with Gus and Greta prior to an adoption. This meet and greet will be held at the facility Gus & Greta are being housed at in Saginaw. We are not allowed to have dogs in our facility, as we are a cat only facility, so we cannot hold the meet and greet at Pet Angel. You and your entire family will meet Gus and Greta and get to spend some time with them. If you have other dogs, we also will do a meet and greet with your dogs and Gus & Greta at this meet and greet and go on a walk together for a proper doggie introduction. Expect the meet and greet to be at least an hour long if you don't have other dogs, or a hour and a half long if you have other dogs. After the meet and greet is over, we will send you home with a copy of the adoption contract to review and give you some time to think about Greta & Gus and make sure they are who you want to join your family.

Gus and Greta have not had the best luck with finding somebody who wants to keep them FOREVER, and we want to ensure that their next home is their forever home. We want to give you the time to really consider them, and ensure that you are going to keep them for the rest of their lives. If you think you are the owner these two are begging for, please read our adoption procedure and submit an application online at: https://forms.gle/2yCjictaaAptaYd86

Keep an eye on your email inbox after submission. If your application is denied, we will email you.

Azalea's adoption bio has changed! When we originally got her, she did not do well with other cats. But throughout her time at Pet Angel, Azalea warmed up to the other gentle adult cats who live here, and now lives in a free roam room with 3 kitty roommates! We updated her adoption bio, so she can now be adopted into a home that has other gentle cats, or could also be a single cat. But this opens up more possibilities for homes for her, and we're so excited she is starting to bloom more and more as she is with us longer!

Hi, my name is Azalea! I have had a hard past, but am looking forward to a bright and beautiful future!

When I was first found, my eyes were so incredibly infected that the humans who found me thought I didn’t have eyeballs. They were able to catch me and brought me to 4 Paw Vet to get immediate vet attention because again- my eyes were so badly infected my eyeballs were not visible, so they thought I was an eye-less cat. After Dr. Barb was able to treat my eyes for a few weeks and the infection started going away, my eyeballs were revealed and everyone was a little shocked to discover that I actually DO have eyeballs! Once I could see, I instantly started warming up to everyone around me. I stayed at 4 paw vet for months while they nursed me back to health! They spayed me, got me all my vaccines, and tested me with other animals. They discovered that I am EXTREMELY afraid of dogs, so they asked Pet Angel (a cat only rescue, so there are no dogs here) If I could join their rescue to find me a home, and they said yes! So I joined Pet Angel! Upon my arrival to the rescue, I was so afraid I pooped all over myself. But the Angel’s were able to clean me up, and gave me a few weeks to decompress. I've been at the rescue for months and have truly bloomed since joining pet Angel, and I'm ready to meet my new family!

I am so, incredibly sweet. In fact, if you could hear the photos of me in this adoption post, you would just hear LOUD purring- because I am always purring when humans come around me! My purrs are so loud, you won’t believe how a petite gal like me can purr this loud! I adore hidey hole beds and love to be in small, warm hidey holes! I am also obsessed with hammocks! I am a gentle, soft-spoken, quiet girl. I get nervous with fast movements coming toward me, and get hesitant when it comes to new surroundings. When there’s a lot going around, I like to retreat to my own space, so I’m hoping to find a quiet home that I can feel calm in all the time! With patience, time, and gentle interactions with humans, I become more confident and comfortable. Moving to my new home will be a little nerve-wracking for me, but Pet Angel will walk my family through out to make it easier for me, and after a few weeks of a slow introduction, you’re going to wonder how you ever lived a life before me!

I am fixed, microchipped, up to date on all my shots, and am negative for FIV/FELV. My eye’s are fully healed and need no extra care moving forward! I am looking for a strictly-indoor only home where there are NO DOGS (and a guarantee there will never be any dogs. Meaning, my future family will not get a dog later during my lifetime. I have been tested with them and will not ever be able to be around a dog.) I also need a home with gentle children over the age of 12, as I have not done well around rambunctious or active children. I would do great in a home as the only cat, or in a home with 1 or 2 other laid-back, relaxed, easy-going cats. If you cat likes to run, play and wrestle- I am not the right match for them.

I am so sweet and gentle and I just know that once we have the chance to meet and begin building a relationship together, you’re going to call me your soul cat. I can’t wait to meet you! If interested in a meet and greet to see if we’re the purrfect fit, please submit an application at https://petangeladoption.com/adopt-a-cat

We are SO SAD for Baby and Betsy. After over 2 years of being in our rescue and up for adoption, and never having a meet and greet of their own, we thought we had found the purrfect family for them. We had an amazing interview, got their application approved, and we were all excited for the family to meet the girls... but the family ultimately ghosted Baby and Betsy. We are heartbroken for the girls. Not ONCE have they had somebody interested in them, they've met families that have come to adopt their roommates but never somebody coming to meet them, and all of their former roommates are now adopted, so they've just watched all their friends get adopted time and time again, and keep asking us "when is it our turn?" "Is it something that we did?" "We love people, why don't they want us?!"

So, we're here again, searching for the purrfect family who would love some loving, sweet twin girls to be their new family members! These girls are such lovers, and are going to be the best duo for the purrfect family that fits with what they're looking for! They love attention, love cat treats, love to snuggle together, enjoy running on their cat wheel, are violently obsessed with watching TV, will be so excited to have windows, and are great with kids! The only thing is these girls are little queens, and they do not get along with other female cats or dogs- only each other and male cats- making it a little harder for them to find a home. Additionally, the twins are bonded, so they are looking for a home together! Let me tell you a bit more about them!

💜 Betsy and Baby look VERY similar, so to tell them apart, Betsy wears a purple collar, and Baby doesn’t wear one at all (she won’t keep it on, Betsy will!) Betsy's tail also curls toward her back, while baby's goes straight up in the air! Another way to tell them apart is that Betsy has a black nose, while Baby has a pink nose! However, once you get to know the girls, you’ll be able to tell that Betsy is lighter than Baby, and Baby is wider than Betsy (in the kindest way possible😉)

📺 Both twins are violently obsessed with watching cat tv on YouTube. They beg for you to turn it on, and climb to their respected spots to “watch their shows” Betsy chooses to watch at the top of the closest cat tree to the tv (Pictured in post,) while Baby likes to watch from further back. Their tails flick, and they’re will stare at the screen for HOURS! We think they would enjoy looking out windows, but would love an owner who will continue to play cat TV for them!

🛋️Betsy is obsessed with the cat couch that’s in their room! She’s almost always laying onto it (you can find the same one on Amazon!)

🏃‍♀️Both girls love to use the cat wheel in their free roam room, and are often seen taking a leisurely stroll on it throughout the day! Sometimes, they walk on it together!

👯‍♀️not only are they twin sisters, but they actually REALLY like each other! They are often found cuddling in the same bed together, and groom each other daily!

🕺Betsy and Baby love people, but they have a soft spot for human males. These girls FLIRT with human males, both adults and children. They will love you too ladies, but these two girls are going to be daddy’s girls!

👶🏼 Betsy & Baby wouldn’t do well with young children under 8, because they are known for giving a slap or two when they’re over attention. However, they’ve done amazing with children over the age of 8 (especially, little boys!)

👑When we say the girls are queens, we mean it in every way. They share the role of “alpha cat” in their free roam room. They get along well with male cats who will submit to them being the alphas, but Betsy and Baby do not accept other female cats in their turf. Therefore, they are looking for a home without other female cats. If your male is an alpha cat, they are probably not the best fit for you.

🐕 It doesn’t matter how nice, or small, or big, or friendly your dog is. If we’re being honest, Betsy & Baby will be aggressive towards your dog. They are looking for a home with no dogs.

🏡 Betsy & Baby are looking for a strictly indoor only home within the state of Michigan.

🩺Betsy & Baby are both fixed, microchipped, up to date on all their shots, and negative for FIV/FELV.

📍They are located at Pet Angel Adoption & Rescue in Frankenmuth!

Hi there, my name is Gene! I’m named after Gene Belcher from the TV show Bob’s Burgers! I am on the hunt for my forever home, and am hoping you’re the human I’ve been looking for!

In the beginning of June, a family found me and my siblings Tina and Louise, and we joined Pet Angel in foster care, as we were too tiny to be on our own in the rescue. Two other single kittens named Teddy and Angel joined us in foster care and the 5 of us had so much fun with our foster parents and with each other! Once we were fixed and big enough to join the rescue again, our foster family adopted Louise & Teddy while Angel, Tina and I came back to Pet Angel to go up for adoption. The 3 of us met the other kittens at Pet Angel, and we all reside together as roommates. My sister Tina just got adopted this week, and I'm hoping I'm next!

I am absolutely obsessed with the cat wheel (by one fast cat) that is in our free roam room. I am on it more than I am not on it, just walking or running my day away. If I accidently get spooked, instead of hiding, I jump on the cat wheel and start sprinting!!! I am a little bit more on the timid side than my sister or other roommates, as I get spooked easily and need a little more time to adjust to change. However, I am NOT shy- I absolutely adore people and attention. I love to be pet and just melt the second you start petting me. I love attention, and I can’t get enough of it! You might notice in my pictures that I am slightly cross eyed- nothing is wrong with me, and I can see just fine, it’s just how I was born!

I am looking for a strictly indoor-only home with other cats, meaning I need to be adopted to a family that already has other cats that will want to be my friend, or you need to adopt one of my roommates (maybe one of my roommates?!) I would not do well as a single cat, as I really depend on other cats to feel comfortable! I have not met a dog before, but with a slow and proper introduction, I would likely get along with a dog that will not hurt me. I would also do great with gentle, older children. Because I am easily spooked, I wouldn’t be the best choice for a baby, but would do well with children a bit older. I am fixed, microchipped, up to date on all my shots and tested negative for FIV/FELV. I am up for adoption at Pet Angel Adoption & Rescue, located in Frankenmuth Michigan, and am looking for a home within the state of Michigan only. If you would like to come and meet me and see if you’re the owner I’ve been hoping for, please read about Pet Angel’s adoption procedures and submit an application online at https://petangeladoption.com/adopt-a-cat
