Tabby and Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Friendswood, Texas

Maui is impossibly tiny, unbelievably cute, and already full of personality that’s bigger than life. At just a month and a half old and only about two pounds, he’s the kind of kitten that makes you do a double take—how can something this small be this confident, this loving, and this full of charm? From the very first moment you meet him, Maui has a way of completely stealing your heart.

Maui lives life with a sense of adventure. Every new space is an opportunity, every corner something to explore, and every moment a chance for fun. He is endlessly curious about the world around him and approaches everything with bright-eyed excitement. Whether he is toddling around investigating his surroundings or setting off on a tiny “mission,” Maui carries himself with a fearless, playful spirit that is as entertaining as it is endearing.

Look how cute he is in his YouTube video now https://youtu.be/d8gBKO1bxQQ?si=GKavw2UVa7uQfMC2

What makes Maui even more irresistible is how incredibly friendly and affectionate he is. From the very first meeting, he showed just how social and loving he can be—immediately leaning into pets, welcoming attention, and confidently checking out his new environment. He doesn’t need time to warm up; he’s already there, ready to be your best friend. For such a tiny kitten, his ability to trust and connect so quickly is truly special.

Maui absolutely adores affection. Scratches are his favorite thing in the world, and he melts into them without hesitation. You’ll find him happily soaking up every bit of love you’re willing to give, purring away like a tiny motor. He’s the kind of kitten who will seek you out, curl up close, and remind you just how comforting and joyful a loving companion can be.

He is currently thriving in a loving foster home, where he is doing wonderfully. His foster family describes him as sweet, cuddly, and full of life. He enjoys playtime just as much as he enjoys snuggling, striking that perfect balance between fun and affection. Maui is growing into a well-rounded, happy kitten who is ready to bring warmth, laughter, and love into his forever home.

Maui may be small in size, but his personality, heart, and capacity for love are anything but. He is looking for a home that will cherish his playful spirit, nurture his adventurous side, and give him all the affection he so happily returns. If you’re looking for a kitten who is confident, loving, endlessly curious, and completely irresistible, Maui is ready to make your life brighter in every way.

**Available for pre-adoption only! Kittens will be ready to go to their forever homes at approximately 12 weeks old, giving you plenty of time to prepare for your new family member.**

Why adopt from Three Little Pitties?

The stray and animal overpopulation in the Greater Houston area is the highest in the nation. Statistics show that there are over 1 million homeless animals in this region alone. Three Little Pitties Rescue is a nonprofit dog and cat rescue that partners with the community to make a difference. Our mission is to reduce the homeless pet population through community outreach, free spay and neuter services, and saving all breeds of dogs and cats from the streets or animal shelters that oftentimes have no other option but to euthanize animals for space. This kitty you’ve found online is lucky to be in our program, and even luckier to have you notice it!

Three Little Pitties Rescue (3LP) wants to set you and your new family member up for success! In addition to a fully vetted furbaby you also receive other additional perks such as a code for a free bag of cat litter AND a code for 50% off a 2nd bag of litter from Catalyst Pet, coupons for a fun visit to Petco, and support through our Facebook Adopters group where you can connect with thousands of other adopters, 3LP volunteers, fosters and staff. We seek to adopt to families who understand that these are rescues and will require continued efforts but are well on their way to being the best kitties that they can be! We ask that you give them time (can take weeks to months) to decompress in their new home, do slow introductions to other pets and let their true personalities have a chance to come through.

We celebrated our 7 year anniversary this year! Through the combined efforts of all of our hardworking staff and volunteers, we have placed over 16,000 very lucky dogs and cats into amazing homes! By adopting from us, you save TWO lives! The pet you adopt, and you create an opportunity for another animal to be saved in that spot. Together, we can be heroes.
