Meet the Cats
Marigold: the cafe cat!
Estimated Birthday: July 25, 2016
Favorite Toy: Catnip Banana
Marigold was an exceptionally lucky kitten! Hers was the last litter trapped in 2016; a family sheltering in a barn slated for demolition. Marigold has a ventricular septum defect...a hole in her heart. We are running the gamut of veterinarians to see what we can do to give her the absolute best life possible.
Marigold doesn't act like a cat with a wonky heart...she is full of love and life!
She plays with skitter toys, and loves to play tag with the other cats. She is UNDERFOOT ALL THE TIME. Literally. She will rub her back on the underside of your foot as you try to walk. It is almost as endearing as it is life threatening.
Marigold is currently 7, and going strong! She is the official cafe cat for the Alley Cat Cafe, and gets almost as much attention as she wants.
We aren't sure what Marigold's future holds, we only know that she will embrace it wholeheartedly.
Anderson
Estimated Birthday: September 22, 2021
Anderson is a wonderful boy, and he's super grateful to be inside!
He was born in a trailer park where cats were seen as vermin, and exterminated with great prejudice and cruelty.
Originally Anderson was going to be a TNR cat, but when BCR became aware of the likelihood of him not making it too far in life, he was brought into the crew. (Shoutout to Katt, and all their patience!)
Anderson is a good natured and reasonably mellow dude, who gets along with all the people he meets. He travels well, behaves at the vet, and does his best to be the poster child for giving feral cats a chance!
This sweet boy gets along well with other cats, and is pretty good at keeping himself entertained. If you're looking for an easy keeper, Anderson is ready for you!
Percival
Estimated Birthday: November 18, 2021
Percival is a sweet little purrbug who is figuring out this indoor life adventure.
He was found in a trailer park, and we aren't sure if he was feral born, or dumped as a kitten, but his life was hard and outside.
Luckily the woman who fed him was looking out for his well-being, and he joined the BCR crew!
Percival is amazing with other cats, and fits in well with many social dynamics. He's sweet and affectionate with the child he's fostered with, but not particularly impressed by dogs.
Percy loves to sit with his person and occasionally give a little head bump to remind them to scritch his ears. As long as you're showing him love, he'll stay by your side!
If you're looking for a sweet ginger boy, Percival is ready for his forever family!
Jester
Estimated Birthday: March 17, 2022
Jester is here to entertain you!
This silly boy loves to be around people, and thrives off love and laughter.
He's an absolute toy fiend, and if you ever can't find him, just check the toy basket!
Jester is incredibly good natured, and does well with kids, cats, and respectful dogs.
If you're looking for someone to keep your heart full of happiness, adopt Jester today!
Campbell
Estimated Birthday: November 13, 2021
Do you need some soup for your family? Meet Campbell! This feral born teen mom had four kittens; Hot and Sour, Miso, Butternut, and Clam Chowder...plenty of soups for all!
While her feral born beginning can make her a little shy with new people, once she knows what's what and who's who, Campbell is a sweet and curious little companion.
She's absolutely marvelous with other cats, and completely drama free. Because she's a bit nervous to start with, we'd recommend a home without small/manic children or dogs. She's fostered with a very respectful young child and even just the little weirdnesses that come from that occasionally have her removing herself from the play zone. Adults are her jam.
If you're looking for a wonderful addition to your family, Campbell is the one for you!
Ninja Panther
New to the cat room, Ninja Panther is an energetic, in-your-face adorable rascal!
She's curious about everything and a heck of a climber. Both spry in spirit and physique,
she's sure to sneak and pounce right into your heart!
