Some of Our Cats at HART

Looking for a permanent, loving home... The cats on this page are all being cared for in our foster homes around the Greater Portland area while they wait to be adopted. Many of these cats are recent mothers whose litters have all grown and been adopted and now they are looking for their forever homes; some weren't happy in the shelter environment and preferred a quieter place to spend their days; and others just needed attention and TLC. Cats in foster care are generally faster to adapt to their adopted home because they have been living in a home environment. All of these cats are healthy and awaiting your visit, so contact the shelter (207-829-4116; email: info@hartofme.com) to make an appointment!

Pretzel and Guinness- Baby males Pretzel and Guinness are both super friendly, very sweet kitties who love both people and each other. Guinness is a sleek, shiny black with two small white spots, one on his neck and one on his belly. Pretzel is a beautiful patched tabby. They have extremely loud purrs and love to brawl with each other and play with all sorts of toys. They are very high energy, but when they finally settle down, they both love to snuggle in the nearest lap. Pretzel often leans with her front paws up on your arm or chest. Guinness's meow sometimes sounds like a bark, and Pretzel has a very insistent mew when she wants people or food. Guinness will sometimes hides when he hears a loud or sudden noise, but comes back out right away to investigate the source. They have great personalities and are full of love. While they are both comfortable with small children, they must be carefully supervised so they don't get accidentally stepped on as they (Pretzel especially) can't get out of the way as quickly as most cats, and when picked up they must not be dropped since their legs don't have normal shock absorbing ability. Please call to meet this super pair of special kittens!

Not typical cat independence (although she's got a streak of that, too), just somewhat unaware of what's going on outside of her world.Houdina sleeps through the other cats in her foster home playing loudly then when she wakes up she'll walk through the home crying until someone gives her attention. She is playful on her own (with bat toys and bags) and enjoys playing with her foster parents with wand toys. When she's ready, she loves to nap in a lap, and when she wants attention she demands it (and gets it). She's got a wicked great motor, too. And as you can see she is just as cute as a bug.
