❤ Please share! This is Katrina and she is with Waverly Pet Rescue! Please help us find her forever home! Thank you! ❤

Katrina was a stray cat trying to survive on the streets of Shell Rock, Iowa. She was being fed by a kind lady so that helped keep her alive. After trying to find an owner with no luck, another resident contacted us, and we were able to take this sweet cat in. Katrina is up to date on shots now, tested negative for FeLV/FIV, and was already spayed and front declawed. Really glad we could take her in as declawed cats do not survive long on the streets because they cannot catch food or fight off predators.

Katrina is about 5 years old as of October 2026. She is super friendly and very loving. And wow does she purr and purr. One little pet and her motor is running and it is loud. I cannot express enough how sweet this cat is, even to someone she has just met. If you are looking for a cat to love on and keep you company, she is the one!

She has not been around cats or dogs yet. Will update later once we know more about her. Seems like she would be ok around children as she is very easy going.

Katrina's adoption fee is $95.00.

😽 Please share! This is a Waverly Pet Rescue kitty and her name is "Bella". Sharing is a way for you to help us find our adoptable pets a forever home. Liking this post helps us to stay in the NewsFeed. 😽

--Bella--
*She is very sweet, friendly, and loving.
*She is not a total fan of being picked up and held so a home with no children would be best.
*Bella is a princess and she desires a home that will treat her that way.
*She needs a home with no other cats.
*She likes to be petted but can get over-stimulated at times and then you need to stop petting her or she will nip your hand. This is common with many cats and not a big deal. A cat will give you signs of when they have had enough, swooshing of the tail, ears go back, etc. Bella needs a true cat person who understands this and will follow her cues.

💘 Please share! This is "May" and she is a Waverly Pet Rescue kitty! Sharing is a way for you to help us find our adoptable pets a forever home. Thank you everyone for the support, we appreciate you! 💘

--May--
*She is shy at first until she gets to know someone. She needs to be integrated into a house very slowly over weeks and months.
*She is looking for that special someone to have a close relationship with.
*She loves to be petted and loves to come over right by you for affection and love.
*She gets along well with other cats and needs to be adopted into a home with other friendly and gentle cats. She would not do well with alphas or cats that tend to bully.

What do you do when your dream cat that you adopted will not get along with your other cats? Well, as a cat loving family, Burt's adopters did everything to make it work. They followed all of my advice. Followed advice from their vet and even put him on anxiety medication which did actually help somewhat. Watched all of Jackson Galaxy's videos and did it all. And still, Burt was like nope...he still tried to attack the other cats in the home.

He was adopted in April. After 6 months of trying, it was very clear it was not going to work to have Burt live with other cats. They were heartbroken to email to say they wanted to return Burt so he could find a home without other cats where he could be happy.

This does not give Burt many options in life as he hates other cats, and also dogs, and also children. Do you know how almost impossible it is to find a home for a senior cat like this? Not to mention impossible to even find him a foster home.

So I suggested something that I have done with personal cats of my own. I give them their own room. It is set up like a cat paradise, but only one cat lives there. I suggested they do the same for Burt. Give him his own room where he can live without other cats, and his family can spend time in there with him. They were thrilled with my suggestion and they told me that they couldn't believe they didn't think of doing this themselves! They immediately switched mindsets and set up a room all for Burt. He is happy now, very loving, and all is well. So proud of them for all they are doing to keep Burt.

Most people seem to think all pets in the home must get along to keep them all. Sometimes that doesn't always work out but they are your family, and you make it work no matter what. I decided to share Burt's story to encourage others to find ways to keep your cat, no matter what. There's millions of homeless cats out there. You can help this epidemic by keeping your cat and stop trying to give them away to shelters, rescues, friends, family, or anyone that will take them. Talk to cat experts, your vet, do some reading and find ways to make it work. Please Keep Your Cat.
