Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Cleveland, Ohio

✨ From the Cold to Comfort: A Family’s Second Chance ✨
Meet Charity, a beautiful tuxedo mama estimated to be 3 years old, who showed incredible strength and devotion during one of the harshest cold snaps at the start of 2026.

We received an urgent call from a local dispatcher about a mama cat who had given birth in an apartment carport during dangerously low, negative temperatures. The residents knew these babies wouldn’t survive without help and were desperately searching for someone to step in.

We reached out to one of our amazing fosters and rushed to help. Despite a few hurdles along the way, we were able to safely gather the kittens, though heartbreakingly, a couple did not make it. At the time, Charity was too scared to be caught, darting under cars and trucks trying to protect herself.

Her babies were immediately placed with one of our dedicated bottle fosters, who kept them warm, safe, and fed through the night. The very next day, we were finally able to bring Charity to safety and reunite her with her little ones 💕

From that moment on, she proved to be an incredible mama. Thanks to her love and the care of her foster, her kittens have grown into happy, healthy, and absolutely gorgeous little personalities.

These babies are full of life…
🐾 Adventurous and playful
🐾 Curious about the world around them
🐾 And when they’re all tuckered out, they turn into the sweetest cuddle bugs

At one point, you could often find all of them piled together on their foster’s lap, soaking up love and warmth 🥹

Two of their siblings have already found their forever homes, but these precious babies are still waiting for theirs:

• Barnum – brown tabby, male
• Phillip Carlyle – tuxedo, male
• Prince Constantine – tuxedo, male/female
• Wheeler – brown tabby, male

Each one carries a piece of this family’s incredible journey… and they’re ready to bring that love into a home of their own 💛
