PRESENTING! The fabrics litter; Suede, Chiffon, Denim, Chenille, Twill and Taffeta!
Presenting Chenille! SUCH a floofy kitten! This girl is a supermodel - filled with poise and grace, and she knows just how gorgeous she is!
Chiffon is the other tortie sister and what a lovely girl she is! She always has a slightly worried expression on her face - but she is one of the sweetest girls you could ever hope to meet! ADOPTED!
Then we have the two velvety brothers Suede and Twill! They are very hard to tell apart - except that Twill has a white tip on his tail! When these two are wrestling however, it's hard to see that detail!
Denim is the tabby boy and he is oh so curious! ADOPTED!
Taffeta is the brown tabby girl - and probably the most active of the group. She is fiercely protective of whichever toy is her favorite at the moment - and plays a great game of "keep away" from the other kittens!
All of these kittens are good friends as well as littermates and MUST be adopted in pairs.
Jasper is an amazing little fellow! He is super social with people and with other animals - just minutes after arriving from a very long day of travel from an overcrowded shelter - he was headbutting and purring up a storm! Jasper is currently living with Julep, a shy but sweet girl who came to us from an outdoor cat colony.
Jaspers over-the-top enthusiasm for life is encouraging shy Julep to come out of her shell. They make a lovely young pair and must be adopted together.

Ambro is a sweetie- but lacking in social graces! He is currently living with Click, Zip and Twix who are teaching him how to be a better cat. Ambro came in from outdoors as a big kitten. He is getting more comfortable with humans but does not seek affection. He needs to be adoptedwith one of his friends or into a home with a social cat of similar age.
Introducing CLICK, and ZIP!
Originally found as strays with their mom Ramona, these kittens are just lovely!
Just 4 months old, they have been in foster with a family who has children,
Click is the friendliest of the crew. He gives kisses on their fingertips and likes to be petted.
He's not that keen on being picked up - if you do pick him up he wiggles and squirms because he prefers to be ‘on the go’.
Click is playful and bold once he’s comfortable.
He would do well in a house with kids and needs to be adopted with his brother Zip.
Zip is very energetic! Very playful. He does not quite trust people yet, crouches away when you approach him but will let you pet him if he’s busy eating, or if you approach slowly. He loves playing with his siblings! He does really fun and crazy aerial jumps when playing with a wand toy. He is a great hunter, he stalks his toy and when he catches it tries to drag it away...
Zip would probably prefer a quieter home and definitely needs his brother Click.

Introducing Ramona!
Lovely Ramona, was found as a stray along with her kids.
She was taken to a busy shelter, then made her way to the comfort and safety of a nice foster home.
She was shy at first, but has started coming out to visit when she sees food! She has a bit of ‘grumpy cat face’ but enjoys chin scratches and having her head being pet. She seems to like the Hubby in the house more than the kids... she purrs for him and allows him to pick her up... but no one else can at this time.
Ramona is only about 1.5 years old, and is friendly - but needs a bit of time to build trust and bond with her humans. She would be best in a quiet home that has another cat, or people who are around a lot.

Sage was a homeless mama - doing her very best to keep her wee babies sheltered and safe. Fortunately she found some humans willing to lend a hand. Her babies have all grown and been adopted - and now its time for dear Sage to find a place of her very own.
We aren’t sure how Sage ended up outside, struggling to support her little family, but we do know that she cannot go back where she came from.
Sage has been living in her foster home for four months. She has made good progress - but she will probably always be somewhat wary of people. She still doesn't want to be petted... but she will take yummy treats from her foster mom’s hand and Sage is happy to play near her foster moms feet and sleep on the living room couch. Some days she will be very bold and come right up to her foster mom’s feet and give a hiss as if to say”I am hungry, Break out those treats!”.
She is only about one year old, and never hisses at other cats. She would need to be paired with a cat that is already social and accustomed to being indoors with humans. We would love to see her in a home with a cat of similar age. She is so playful, she runs around the house, chases toys and tries desperately to make friends with the two, resident grumpy cats, neither of which want anything to do with her.
Sage may never be a true lap cat but she will be a friend and companion and you will have saved a beautiful cat saved from a hard life on the street.
