Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Springfield, Missouri

They don’t call me Beelzebub for nothing—mischief is practically my birthright. Born on 3/9/26, I may be small now, but I’m already living up to my legendary name with a bold spirit, a curious mind, and just the right amount of energy. I’m what you’d call an “orange boy in training,” which means I bring the full package: silliness, confidence, and a tendency to dive headfirst into whatever catches my eye. I’m already in the middle of the action, having the time of my life. But don’t let my devilish charm fool you—I’ve got a soft side too. I’ve started coming up to my humans more and more on my own, and I’ve discovered that cuddles are actually pretty amazing. If you find that perfect spot under my chin or on my head, I might even reward you with a few sweet purrs. Not bad for a little troublemaker! I love to play, I love to eat, and I love being a happy little kitten. Life is just one big adventure, and I’m determined to experience all of it. Because I’m still young, I’ll likely do just fine with dogs, other cats, and kids—as long as we take things nice and slow at first.

I’ll be getting neutered on May 19th and will be ready to take over your heart (and probably your home) just a few days after that. So if you’re ready for a little fun, a lot of love, and a kitten with a name as legendary as his personality… I’m already waiting.


My adoption fee is $75. This fee includes my vaccinations, FIV/FELV testing, de-wormer, spay/neuter, microchip, and flea preventative. Fill out an application at https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/ROS/Cat if you would like to meet me!
