Coal

Hi… my name is Coal.

Adopted December 29, 2014.

When my family took off for Wisconsin, they left a lot of cats behind, and I (with my two babies) was one of them. Happily, I got to live with a foster mom while I raised them, and did she ever take care of US! I’ll let her tell you how she felt: “These cats are the most agreeable, well-adjusted, other-pet-friendly cats I’ve had the pleasure to foster. Coal is very sweet and the ‘mother of all mothers,’ is tolerant with big dogs, and loves people.” I’m a striking, golden-eyed, solid black lady (in every sense of the word), who is yearning for a stable, loving home where I can be feel at ease again. If you can provide that, you’d make me (and my foster mom) ever so happy!

Ballet

Hi… my name is Ballet.

I was adopted on August 20, 2014.
Think June in Arizona. Think a closed-up trailer in June in Arizona. Think a closed-up trailer in June in Arizona with no food and water. Not pretty, is it? Well, that’s where the owner of the trailer found my extended family (including a passel of kittens!) and me after the renters moved out. I can’t tell you how happy we all were to get out of there and into TALGV where it’s cool and there’s all the food and water we want. It may take a while for all of us to recover from that experience, but when we do, we’ll be the most grateful felines on the planet! I’m a longhaired glossy black lady, and I know that a lot of purrs, rubs, and kisses will come your way when you take me home!

Lyric

Hi… my name is Lyric.

Adopted November 22, 2014.

I was born on April 23, 2013, so unlike a lot of pets whose origins are a mystery, you’ll know exactly when to celebrate my birthday each year! The family I lived with for nine months said, “Lyric is a very good and smart dog who craves attention. She loves kids very much and gives kisses like no other.” My only “problem” was that I was too rough with their older female dog (at my age, I’m still into romping!), but I’m getting along with my “roomies” here just fine! I’d love to find an active family that wants a devoted companion to join in the fun. I’m a striking, lanky, black shepherd mix girl who, with patient training and love, is going to turn in to one statuesque and well-behaved beauty!

Tango

Hi… my name is Tango.

Adopted September 27, 2014.

It was only after I arrived with my littermates (the “dance” kittens!), when things started looking up for me in life! We were all part of a passel of animals that came in from TALGV’s Outreach program and had been living outside all our lives. Well, now that I’m safe here and getting to know humans, I’ve got a lot brighter outlook on the world (and humans) and am eager to find my very own special place in the world. I’m a darling young, longhaired, solid black boy whose memory of the great outdoors wants to remain just that — a memory! Just give me a chance to prove how loving and appreciative a rescue kitten can be – your life will be the better for it!

Rumba

Hi… my name is Rumba.

Adopted October 12, 2014.

Arrived June 6, 2014.

Mambo

Hi… my name is Mambo.

Adopted January 24, 2015.

It was only after I arrived with my littermates (the “dance” kittens!), when things started looking up for me in life! We were all part of a passel of animals that came in from TALGV’s Outreach program and had been living outside all our lives. Well, now that I’m safe here and getting to know humans, I’ve got a lot brighter outlook on the world (and humans) and am eager to find my very own special place in the world. I’m a darling young, medium-haired, solid black boy whose memory of the great outdoors wants to remain just that — a memory! Just give me a chance to prove how loving and appreciative a rescue kitten can be – your life will be the better for it!

Blaze

Hi… my name is Blaze.

I was adopted July 7, 2014.

Novie

Hi… my name is Novie.

Adopted December 1, 2014.

After I arrived at TALGV last year, a family with six kids and three other cats made me part of their world. I got along great with all of them except their female cat, so although we tried to work it out, everyone decided I needed to be either an only cat or live with another, laid back, male. I’m a handsome, young “Chantilly” (check us out on the Internet!), who is gentle, quiet (“lazy” has been mentioned!), have perfect house manners (okay, I do counter surf once in a while, but that’s really a “cat thing”!), and I love people. My life would be complete if I had a lap, a bowl of munchies, and a few catnip mice to bat around, so if you have them, we should get together!

Boots

Hi… my name is Boots.

I was adopted July 15, 2014.
Having lived with lots of cats and dogs, you can be sure I’m a pretty well adjusted guy (I’m actually more partial to cat-savvy dogs!). My mom, whose health issues precluded her keeping me, said that I was a “big love” who loves to hunt toys, to sit in your lap and sleep with you, am very smart and know my name (for some reason people think that’s unusual for cats, but it’s really not — we’re no dummies!). I’m a handsome and sleek Tuxedo guy with a delightful white “goatee” and whiskers, so I’m betting if you give me a chance, I’ll win your heart as easily as I won my mom’s! Don’t you think it’s time that you had a furry friend sitting in YOUR lap?

Katie

Hi… my name is Katie.

I was adopted July 7, 2014.

I guess all pet owners hope that they’ll outlive their companions, but that doesn’t always happen. My dad was a loyal supporter of TALGV for many years, so I’m sure he’d be happy knowing that I’m in good hands now. I lived with him all of my life, so you know how close we were and how much I’ll miss him. His neighbors said, “Katie is a great dog and would be a wonderful companion to just about anyone but kids.” (I guess they felt that at my age, kids would be a bit too much for me to “take on” at this stage in life!) I’m a lovely tri-colored shepherd mix, and my dream is to find another quiet home where I can spend my golden years making one more human happy.
Katie qualifies for TALGV’s “Vet Care for Life” program.

Ivy

Hi… my name is Ivy.

I was adopted August 4, 2014.

When you’re found living under a tarp you can be forgiven for being pretty wary of the world! My brother, Hollis, and I were found in Arivaca at five weeks old with our eyes swollen shut and VERY frightened. But that was then, and this is now, and we’ve been nursed back to health and are coming out of our shells more every day (it doesn’t take kittens long to decide that being outgoing and lively is lots more fun than hiding!). I’m a little brown tabby and white girl and I guess all I can tell you is that I’m a “typical kitten” (with all the joy that that entails for humans!) and will one day never remember living “rough” when I was a baby. Why not help me do just that?

Jinx

Hi… my name is Jinx.

I was adopted July 10, 2014.

There’s some confusion as to whether I’m a Ragdoll or a Snowshoe Siamese, but if you’re familiar with either breed, you’ll know that we’re totally awesome, sweet felines, so you get the best of both worlds with me! My family consisted of mom, dad, two dogs and two kids (ages 8 and 10), and everyone agreed that I’m a real sweetheart and a lover (and also chatty if you’re feeling lonely!). My problem is that I occasionally didn’t use my litter box, but I’m pretty sure that my fastidious feline ways would come to the fore in no time in a new environment (and maybe with a watchful eye for a bit?). I’m only 4 years old, so I’ve got lots of time ahead of me to become “Patti Perfect,” and I’m hopeful that you’ll give me that chance!
