Hiya! My name is Frankie! I am a 2 year old girl, with suuuuuper soft fur and an exceptionally cute face – or so I’ve been told! I agree though, I am very cute and would love to find a new family who appreciates my adorableness in all its glory. I enjoy exploring and playing with toys, but my FAVORITE thing is lap time. I love to rest my cute little head on your arm and put my paw on your hand. I am not the biggest fan of other cats, so I would prefer to be the only kitty in your company please.

If you would like to meet Franki in person, please fill out a cat adoption application on our website!

Are you looking for a kitty that doubles as a life coach/motivational speaker? Perhaps someone to boost your “self-esteem”? Well, we may have just who you need here!

Our girl Esteem aka “Estie” is a gorgeous 1 year old female, who is looking for a loving home to call her own. Esteem was previously a stray, and has been described as very social and friendly!

From her foster: 
“Estie is an absolute sweetheart, and has come out of her shell so much since coming to my home. She started off a bit shy and skittish, but has since revealed herself to be a loving, social, playful, and gentle soul. As I write this, she is laying next to me, belly up, with her arms stretched out and purring! Her absolute favorite thing in the world is being together, and I think that she will do best in a home with someone who is around a fair amount and is looking for a buddy to be by their side. Estie loves eye contact and will stare at you lovingly when she’s happy. She will let you know that she’s wanting some pets by, ever-so-gently, tapping you with her paw and sitting patiently to receive. 

While I can’t speak to her experience with cats (though I could see her enjoying a buddy), she has tolerated small, chill dogs easily and also does really well meeting new people! She’ll plop herself right in the middle of anyone sitting on the couch. As for her extracurriculars, Estie LOVES to sit in the window and watch the birds! She also really loves playing with string-type toys. She, oddly, is not motivated by wet food but loves her crunchy food!

All in all, Estie is a sweet and calm girl who is looking for a forever home with someone who loves a snuggle. She has done really well in my house with just me and her, she enjoys the peace “

If you’d like to meet Esteem, please fill out a cat adoption application on our website today!

Meet King Cobbler! A 2½-year-old Scottish Fold with a face that says “I’m judging you” and a heart that says “Please keep petting me.” His adorable grumpy expression is one of those irresistible features that makes you smile the moment you see him. But don’t be fooled. Behind those folded ears and serious eyes is a total sweetheart.

Cobbler isn’t here for the hustle and bustle or chaos. Toys? Meh. Zoomies…? Maybe on Christmas morning. This handsome gentleman is all about the finer things in life: lounging like royalty, receiving slow, adoring pets, and curling up next to you for long, cozy purr sessions.

He’s laid-back, calm, and wonderfully affectionate. The kind of cat who will happily spend the afternoon napping in his cozy bed or stretching out beside you on the couch, letting his soft rumble fill the room. Cobbler is an old soul with a gentle spirit, and he’s ready for a home that appreciates his relaxed vibe and top-tier snuggle skills. 

Cobbler isn’t just special because of his folded ears and sweet nature, he has A LOT of long, dense, luxurious fur. The kind of coat that makes him look like a regal little cloud drifting around your home. Because of that, he will need daily grooming and brushing, not just to keep him looking fabulous, but to help him feel his best. It’s a simple routine that turns into bonding time, and Cobbler absolutely loves the extra attention.

Cobbler would do best in a solo cat household – there’s only room for 1 king around here!

If Cobbler sounds like the perfect cat for you, fill out a cat adoption application on our website today. He will join your home with a fresh new hair cut ( no more matts!) ♥️🐱

Looking for a smooth, rich new addition your household? Well, why not try Kerrygold!

Sweet Kerrygold here is a 9 month old female snowshoe mix. Other than being very pretty, she is also an affectionate, gentle spirit, with a lot of love to give. She really enjoys soft headscritches, and will purr constantly for as long as you are giving her attention.

Kerrygold has lived with another cat and a small dog in her past home, but due to her shy nature, we think that she would do best in a home with animals who are as calm and quiet as she is. So, if you need a kitty that is sure to butter you up, please fill out a cat adoption application today!

Kerrygold is currently located at Pets on Broadway – 2762 NE Broadway, Portland, OR 97232. Stop in between 10:00am to 7:00pm to have a meet and greet with Kerrygold and then fill out the adoption application on our website! ❤️🐱

Chive adds a little extra flavor to every moment! Meet Chive, a 3-month-old brown and white mixed-breed pup with a big story and an even bigger heart! This little adventurer made his way from the Texas floods all the way to Portland, ready to start a brand-new chapter in a loving home.

Chive is everything you’d expect from a happy, healthy puppy. Wiggly, friendly, curious, and full of joy. He loves people, gets along great with other dogs, and is always excited for whatever the day brings. Whether it’s playtime, snuggle time, or a brand-new toy to investigate, Chive is in.

He and his sister Fig have been thriving in their wonderful foster home on acreage, where they spend their days running around, exploring the outdoors, and learning all about the big world. Chive already has the makings of the perfect adventure buddy, energetic when it’s time to play, and sweet and snuggly when it’s time to settle in.

If you’re looking for a sweet, loyal companion, apply on our website!
