This sweet little cat can talk up a storm, keep you entertained with her playful antics and curl up on your lap to give you loads of affection. Meet Olive! A spritely, young black and brown Tortoiseshell/Mixed, Olive is full of life and looking for her forever home. It might take Olive a while to get used to you, but once she overcomes her initial shyness she will become a playful, affectionate companion who will follow you around the house and even greet you at the door in the evening! She’s described by her foster as easygoing, loving and curious. Her favorite activities are carrying her toys around and chasing them all over the place. You’re sure to be entertained by her antics. 🙂 When this little cutie is ready to relax, she is more than happy to curl up next to you on a chair or a bed. When she’s into serious relaxing, she can be found kneading her special blanket, especially if you are underneath it to get a kitty massage. We think she’s one loving cat. Do you think you could make Olive the newest member of your household? Olive is 50% off through January. Apply to adopt Olive here or...

Her full name is Miss Mina Murray, but you needn’t be so formal. Just call her Mina! She’s a cat’s cat who won’t turn down a chance to play with other felines, has a soft heart for kittens and a whole lotta love to offer her human family, as well. Mina is a young Domestic Shorthair/Mixed with tuxedo markings and gold eyes. She was part of a feral colony of cats and was rescued by DPA when she was a small kitten. Because she was too young to be returned to the colony, she was accepted into our foster program. Mina is a broad-minded feline who enjoys being a part of her peer group and even embraces the companionship of canines of all sizes! Her ability to make friends wherever she goes has made her a popular playmate who likes to be near humans, too, just not necessarily in their laps. She will greet you by rubbing against your legs, follows you around the house and will talk to you with a very cute, tiny meow when you get her dinner. The way to Mina’s heart is threefold: socializing with her cat and dog friends, playing with her fishing pole toy (she comes running when she sees you with it in your hand) and eating savory, meat-flavored cat treats. If you want to be entertained, this could be your cat. Mina would do best with another cat to play with and she needs some patience in order to overcome a bit of shyness and develop some confidence. We know that she will give back much more than...

About Lip Here is a tenacious young cat with a lot of love to give. She may have been blown off course but she’s made it clear to everyone around her that she is weathering the storm just fine. Meet Lip, a sleek, black-coated Domestic Short Hair Mix with emerald green eyes and a friendly disposition! This little kitty is a survivor of the Houston hurricane. When the storm cut its path through the city, Lip was left without a home or family and that’s when DPA stepped in. She’s currently staying with a great DPA foster (and another cute, young cat named Fiona) while patiently waiting for a permanent home. This cutie loves to play and craves lots of affection and attention. She likes to be petted and scratched and wants nothing more than to be in a family where she can play and find a cozy place to curl up and sleep. Lip likes other cats and can sometimes tolerate dogs. She loves kids and would do best in a home with some young people to play with her and give her lots of love. She’s litter box-trained, healthy and is described by her foster mom as a very smart cat. We think she weathered the storm to be some fortunate family’s special companion! Do you think the winds of fate could be bringing Fiona to your doorstep? Apply to adopt her today! Now through July 31 her adoption fee is 50% off. About Fi Described as a beautiful, young cat who loves kids and likes to play, this charming little Domestic Short Hair Mix feline...
