All of the cats shown on this page were unwanted cats that were either abandoned on the streets by previous "owners", or were kittens born into the wild, destined for a miserable existence scrounging for food and shelter. These cats and kittens were kindly taken in by foster volunteers who have devoted their time and money to getting them off of the streets and into good, loving homes.

•  Neuro -  Beautiful Black Maine Coon mix neutered male about 3  years old.  He was dropped off at a vet clinic by a "good Samaritan" who found him staggering in the streets.  He was extremely neurologic and could barely stand.  He has improved greatly and has had a battery of tests to ensure his health.  He did have a titer to toxoplasmosis and was treated with success.  He is not 100% and probably never will be, but he is happy and healthy and looking to become part of a family.  He is very talkative and has a wide array of voices.  He needs an inside only home as he is not always steady on his  feet.  This WONDERFUL boy gets along with cats, dogs, you name it!  His pictures don't do him justice, he is a tall, dark, handsome must see!  Better pictures to come....contact Tina at : tropicllc@msn.com

• Fay - Calico/Tortie with White spayed female, about 1 year old.  Her owners moved and left her when she was just under a year old.  She stayed right there thinking they would return for her - but they never did.  She got thin and hungry, and was now pregnant.  She went out in search of food, not far from where she was left behind.  Fay found a nice lady to feed her and finally brought her kittens "home".  Fay was thin and loaded with hookworms.  She has since been spayed and completely vetted, however she has nowhere to live.  She's not just a pretty face.  She is a SWEET, CALM girl, with a GENTLE nature.  However, she is still young and likes to play.  She would LOVE a responsible home where she can be safe and loved.  Would you like to give Fay the life she so deserves?  Contact Tina at : tropicllc@msn.com

* Mary *

• Pierce - Grey Tabby neutered male, about 3+ years old.  He was a stray cat in a shelter preparing to die, when that morning, he was rescued.  He was pretty scraggly, not the kind of cat someone would easily adopt.  He was thin, poor hair coat, scarred ear, and a little untrusting.  He has now been neutered and received all of his vet care, and is fast becoming a HANDSOME, TRUSTING boy!  Pierce has probably never known love - but you can change that.  He is a SWEET, shy boy - calm and quiet. He likes attention and loves to eat!  Pierce has a problem with biting, though.  We're not sure why he does it, or where it comes from, but it happens.  He may outgrow it as he adjusts to his surroundings, but he may also be prone to biting, regardless.  He gets along fine with other cats, but hasn't been around dogs.  He shouldn't be placed in a home with children, contact Tina at : tropicllc@msn.com

* Pierce *

• Mitzi - Grey Tabby and White spayed female, about 3-5 years old. She is a little on the chubby side, and likes to eat!  She is VERY SWEET-NATURED, calm and friendly, LOVES attention, and gets along fine with other cats and dogs.  Mitzi came from a sad neglect case but is healthy and happy now.  All she needs is a happy home!  She has a permanently scarred ear, as you can see in her picture, contact Tina at : tropicllc@msn.com

* Mitzi *

• Forty -  Persian mix Smoke Tabby neutered male, about 3 years old.  He is a handsome fellow, resembling a Persian with short hair.  He has the look and personality of a Persian, without the high maintenance coat.  Forty came from a neglect case where he was kept in a shed with 31 other cats.  When he came into rescue, he was in poor health.  Thin, mouth and ears infected, covered in fleas, and not neutered or vaccinated.  He has been completely vetted, including a complete blood panel and is ready for adoption. The only thing is - he still needs to put on some weight but he is eating SO well (and boy is he a messy eater!), that it shouldn't take long!  He is a FRIENDLY cat, with a slightly aloof personality.  He likes to be petted and will play.  He doesn't mind other cats or dogs. and just needs a real home to settle into, contact Tina at : tropicllc@msn.com

* Forty *

• Pinky - Tabby and White spayed female, just over a year old.  Pinky was found hit by a car. She was a little feral girl, skinny and sick, shocky and injured.  It wasn't expected that she survive.  With good vet care and love she did. She had a broken femur that had to be pinned, as well as some other superficial injuries. She had to spend a long time in a cage for recovery purposes. Looking at her now, you would never suspect her rough start. She is still a little scared of open, busy places, but is otherwise a SWEET,  PLAYFUL girl. She likes to sleep in little cubby holes or under blankets.  She is really a lively special little gal!  She gets along fine with other cats, contact Tina at : tropicllc@msn.com

* Pinky *

• Riley - Solid Black spayed female born in May 2002.  Riley has a SUPER soft, shiny black coat, and large gold eyes!  She is super sweet and loving, can't get enough attention. She has the SWEETEST little face and disposition you can't help but fall in love! She was born to a stray mom who was rescued along with her other kittens and all were adopted long ago.  Riley was up for adoption when she was younger but then ran into some undiagnosed health problems and was removed from the website.  After lots of time, tests, and surgery she has finally been diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).  Initial treatment consists of meds and food and since treatment, she is doing wonderfully!  Riley's only special need is that she will require a prescription diet. The food can be purchased at any veterinarian and is no more expensive than any other prescription food.  Without the diet, she will have intermittent vomiting, diarrhea, and weight loss. This disease makes her less adoptable, but no less deserving of a loving home and family.  Riley is great with other cats and dogs and should adjust to any home, contact Tina at : tropicllc@msn.com

* Riley *

• Ginger -  Light Creamy Orange and White spayed female.  She came from a crisis situation involving many cats where the owners could no longer care for them.  Ginger's age is unknown so we'll just call her a young adult.  She probably is no older than 3-4 years.  She is a SWEET cat, rather calm.  Gets along fine with other cats and although fearful of new dogs, she should adjust to a home with nice dogs if need be.  Ginger is a beautiful creamy orange color with a cute face and personality!  She is getting a bit chubby also.  She is CUTE and FRIENDLY and should adjust to just about any home, contact Tina at : tropicllc@msn.com

* Ginger *

• Squirt -  Black and White spayed female born Sept 2004.  Squirt was a tiny kitten dropped off at the front door of a vet clinic.  She was very little earning her the name Squirt.  She had a terrible case of ear mites that led to an ear infection which ultimately caused some neurological problems.  Once the ear infection was cleared up, the problems resolved leaving a slight residual head tilt.  Squirt has had a full battery of tests to insure her health and is ready for adoption.  She is SUPER FRIENDLY, very playful, and active!  She purrs all the time, loves people and other cats, and should do fine in just about any home, contact Tina at : tropicllc@msn.com

* Squirt *

• Leaf - Siamese mix male born in March 2003. He is mostly white with a dark tabby tail and a few tan spots on his back and head. He has a slightly stocky build and bright blue eyes. Leaf came from a high kill shelter with his littermates (who have all been adopted) when he was very young, probably born to a feral mom. He is a little on the shy side, but once he warms up to you he can't get enough attention! He doesn't love to be held but LOVES to be pet and has a cute playful personality. Leaf gets along wonderfully with other cats and dogs. He needs a patient home willing to give him lots of attention and a little extra time to adjust. He's a great cat looking for a special family! contact Tina at : tropicllc@msn.com *Leaf*

• Raven - Born approx. June 2003, Shiny Black spayed female. Raven has a soft, shiny, solid black coat. She was given up when she was about 9 or 10 months old because her owner was moving and couldn't take her. She was taken from her mother young, and raised as an only kitten so she can be kind of bossy. This hasn't helped her find a loving home and family. She really is a nice cat, she just has a strong personality. She has a brave heart and fears no evil. You can vacuum next to her without even a flinch! She is never timid, never hides, always out for all to see! She may take a few extra days to adjust to everyone and everything, but once she's comfortable, she's a joy to have around! She will lay in contorted positions exposing her belly like she hasn't a care in the world. She currently lives with many cats and a few large dogs and is just fine but would do fine as an only cat also. She probably wouldn't make a good "companion" for another cat as she chooses to sleep and play alone or with her human friends. Because of her bossy nature, she probably shouldn't be placed in a home with young children. As you can see in her picture her left ear has been tipped, contact Tina at : tropicllc@msn.com

* Raven *

         *Raven (& Clovis) *

• Gino - Born February 2004, Medium-haired Light Orange with slight Tabby markings, neutered male. Gino's owner gave him up when he was about 4 months old because "she couldn't keep him". He lived with children for the first few months of his life. He's very sweet, loves attention, and is SO CUTE! He is very curious and social and LOVES to play! He lives with other cats now, and plays and cuddles with them. However, he needs a little extra time to adjust to new cats and surroundings. He isn't used to dogs, but would probably do okay with them if given some time to adjust. Gino would do fine as an only cat, but could be placed in a home with other cats as long as his new family gave him a few days to acclimate, contact Tina at : tropicllc@msn.com

• Crystal - approx. 3 - 5 yrs. old, Black and White spayed female. Crystal was found as a stray on a busy highway. Her family couldn't be located, so she is now looking for a new home to call her own. She had a bad infection in her mouth, but has since had her teeth cleaned and a couple pulled. She is a thin, long cat, but now that her mouth is better, she may put on weight. She is fairly laid back and quiet, loving a warm lap and some nice conversation. Crystal is a little standoffish at first, but will adjust fairly quickly. She is friendly and loving with people, she is okay with other cats, and she seems okay with children, contact Tina at : tropicllc@msn.com

SPECIAL NEEDS KITTIES - The following cats and kittens need a little extra attention due to various situations.

Feline leukemia (FeLV) and feline AIDS (FIV) are two completely separate diseases with different modes of transmission.  Feline leukemia is shed in saliva, blood, urine, tears and feces  It can be transmitted via grooming, food and water bowls, and litterboxes.  It can also be spread from a mother to her kittens.  Some positive cats are considered carriers, meaning they carry the virus and are capable of spreading it but are healthy and may live many years.  Leukemia positive cats can have transient infections and should be retested a few months after a first test to determine a true result.  Feline leukemia positive cats should not live in the same home as negative cats.   

Feline AIDS positive cats, on the other hand, usually live long, healthy lives.  The major route of virus transmission is by deep bite wounds that occur during fighting.  Casual contact such as grooming, sharing food and water bowls, playing, snuggling, and other forms of casual contact are NOT associated with transmission.  Isolation of a feline AIDS positive cat is not necessary in a stable household unless the feline AIDS positive cat fights with the other residents.  Positive cats can live with negative cats as long as everyone gets along.

Neither of these diseases can be transmitted to dogs or people, they are highly species specific,  infecting cats only. 

Since only brief descriptions are listed here, you may e-mail Tina at tropicllc@msn.com with questions or for more information or you may visit http://kittenrescue.org/catcarequestions.htm

Please consider a special needs cat, as these cats are less likely to be adopted but just as deserving of loving homes!!

• Wotan - Born approx. October 1, 2005, Cream Mackerel Tabby neutered male.  Tests FIV+ so far, and will be tested again, as possibility that he might be negative.  Wotan is a sweet boy who lives for love & attention! Very playful and active, good with other cats.  Could be homed with another FIV+ cat or as an only cat.  Contact Debi at:  dawilliams@bellsouth.net.

• Streak of Light  - is a BEAUTIFUL Turkish Angora, neutered male, who is about a year old.  He has long white hair and a BIG, FLUFFY tail! Too bad we couldn't get a picture with his eyes open, because he has one blue eye and one greenish yellow eye!  He is a calm, sweet boy that LOVES to just sit in your lap.  He loves to be pet and doesn't mind being brushed.  He doesn't even mind other cats.  But sadly, Streak is leukemia positive (FeLV+), so he must be the only cat or live with other leukemia positive cats.  If you are looking for your one and only - won't you consider giving this special boy a place to call home?  Contact Tina at : tropicllc@msn.com

* Streak *

• Bleu - is a Siamese Lynx/Tabby Point neutered male about 2+ years old.  He is a BIG, HANDSOME cat with a loving personality!  Bleu is FIV+ but don't let that scare you off.  He's okay with other cats and has a lifetime of love to give!  Contact Tina at : tropicllc@msn.com

* Bleu *

• Fifty -  Medium-haired Grey and White neutered male probably born sometime in 2003.  He is mainly short haired but has a little bit of fluff to his tail and around his neck.  Fifty was found living outside a convenience store next to a junk yard.  He was dirty, hungry, smelled of grease, and his coat a dull rough texture.  He was starved for food and attention.  He was probably someone's cat when he was young because he is friendly and affectionate.  Scared at first but trusts quickly.  Maybe he was tossed aside when the thrill of having a kitten wore off or when his family could no longer care for him.  We will never know how he made it to the streets but hopefully he will never end up there again.  He is a large boy with a cute expressive face.  He is friendly and LOVES attention.  He gets along fine with other cats and seems ok with dogs.  Fifty is FIV+ making him more difficult to place,  but he should adjust fine to just about any home,  contact Tina at : tropicllc@msn.com

• Copper - Copper is a sleek, Light Orange spayed female about 1 and 1/2 years old. She has a short, soft coat, a small pointed face resembling that of a Siamese, and a long, slender body. She is extremely social and LOVES to play. Copper was a skinny stray living on the streets trying desperately to care for her three young kittens. She was rescued, but just days later broke with Panleukopenia, an extremely deadly disease that ultimately claimed the lives of two of her kittens. Much time, money, love, and hope went into saving Copper's life. After being hospitalized and deathly ill for weeks, she finally made a full recovery. Here is her story...

  "My Name is Copper and I dont do adoption events very well, so it is unlikely someone will become smitten with me at PetsMart and take me home. Such outings are just way to scary for me but Im a wonderful little cat and most deserving of a great permanent home. So look beyond my growl-ly out of my element disposition and visualize me parked somewhere in you kitchen, where I spend most of my time, waiting for you to come home and serve me dinner.

  Heres what you should know about me if you would consider taking me home with youI do not especially like living in a multi-cat household even though Im managing at the present. Stresses such as those associated with yapping schnauzers or screaming kids would probably cause my hair to fall out. Sometimes I even growl at my twitching tail, if it sneaks up on me. I am loyal to my litter box even though I hate to run the gauntlet of cats to get to it. My only bad habit is rabbit-kicking rolls of paper towels left sitting on the kitchen counter!

  So, if you are currently cat-less (and maybe dog-less and kid-less), want a devoted, loving feline companion, and have a wall-mounted paper towel holder, then Im for you!"

  Sincerely, Copper 

  To adopt this GREAT cat, contact Ellen at : catnapper1@mindspring.com

• Thomas -  Black and White neutered male about 3 years old, probably born sometime in 2003.  Because of his sweet nature, Thomas was probably loved very early in life and then lost or left on the streets to eke out an existence the best he could.  He wasn't neutered and probably had to fight for food and territory as many unaltered cats do.  As a result of this fighting, he is now FIV+.  He showed up at someone's house after one of the hurricanes with lots of superficial skin abrasions and hair loss, probably due to the many fleas.  She began to offer him food but couldn't afford to care for him or get him proper treatment.  She brought him to a vet clinic to be euthanized.  His coat was a dull, rough, off black color and his white feet were stained brown.  He had fleas, earmites, sores all over his body, ulcers in his mouth, and many diseased teeth.  He was thin and starved and ate with excitement every time he was fed.  He was treated for fleas and earmites, given 2 baths, which weren't successful in removing the years of stains from his white feet, neutered, dewormed, and put on antibiotics for his skin and mouth.  A week later he was sedated again and most of his teeth removed.  The remaining teeth were clean, polished, and given a fluoride treatment.  Through it all, Thomas remained a WONDERFUL, friendly cat hungry for love and attention.  He is always loving, and fast becoming a handsome, healthy cat.  He has a loud meow which he uses when yelling for attention, which he can't seem to get enough of!   We think he is making up for lost time.  Thomas is ready for adoption and would love a family to give him the life he never thought possible.  He is VERY social and should adjust to just about any home. contact Tina at : tropicllc@msn.com

• Eve - Bobtail Longhair Black and White spayed female, about 2 years old.  She is a pretty little girl that LOVES to play!  She is VERY social and friendly.  Unfortunately, Eve is feline leukemia positive (FeLV+) and would need to be placed as an only cat or with other FeLV+ cats.  She is used to living with dogs and would make a good companion for a nice cat loving pooch!  Photo forthcoming, contact Tina at : tropicllc@msn.com

• K - Medium-hair, Grey Tabby and White neutered male, about 2-3 years old.  He was rescued from a Circle K - hungry, dirty, and lonely.  He is a LOVING boy that can't get enough attention!  He has a soft, fluffy coat and CUTE face!  He gets along fine with other cats, but hasn't been around dogs.  He is FIV+. "K" will make aWONDERFUL addition to any family willing to give this special boy a place to call home!  contact Tina at : tropicllc@msn.com
