Some of our cats ready for adoption can be seen at PetSmart located on Citrus Park Dr., just across from the Citrus Park Mall where they are housed 7 days a week. Our volunteers are onsite for adoptions Saturday and Sunday from 12:00pm to 5:00pm and will be happy to assist you with finding the perfect feline companion. PetSmart management can assist with an adoption during other days/hours. Click here to view map of PetsMart.
We have many more cats than the ones housed at the PetSmart location. Our cats live with foster families until they are ready for adoption and space is available at PetSmart. Please look through the list below to see if a cat is at PetSmart or in a foster home. If the foster has provided contact information you can get more information on a particular cat directly from them. Otherwise use the 'Contact' link at the top of the page and someone will contact you.

My story: Calvin was found abandoned and neglected. He is a truly wonderful, loving cat. He warms up to people quickly and loves attention and affection. He loves to lay in your lap to be petted and scratched and will even roll over for a belly rub. Calvin has not had many breaks in life until now, he just needs someone to love him and allow him to love them in return. If you give Calvin a chance you will be rewarded with a wonderful companion for life. A truly great cat!

My story: I am a very sweet and loving cat. I was rescued in Westchase with my litter of kittens. St Francis found good homes for my kittens, now it is my turn. I am not fond of being picked up and held but I love to sit next to you for as long as you want to pet me. I am a little shy at first but warm right up once you give me a chance to show you how sweet I am.

He spends most of his time on the patio watching squirrels and birds and napping. Does not seem to play much or interact with the other cats but gets along with them fine. He is very sweet and loving and loves his pats.

My story: I was abandoned by some uncaring person, luckily a very nice lady took me in and found out how loving and sweet I am. She already has 4 cats and a dog so it would be hard for her to keep me too. I am great around dogs and I'm ok around other cats but a little shy with them at first. I'm very calm and gentle and I love to get affection and give it in return. I am declawed in the front. Will you give me a loving forever home?

My story: I was rescued from a mobil home park in Zephyrhills. A nice lady took pity on me and got me some help. I have been living in a foster home for the past 2 years.

My story: Champ is a very sweet cat. He is a polydactyl which some people call a hemmingway. This means he has extra toes on his paws. He was found on the side of the road lying next to a mate that had been hit by a car. He is now up to date on all his shots and has been deemed healthy except for one problem. He has feline aids. He would need to be the only cat in the home or an addition to a home with a cat that has feline aids. The life expectancy of a cat with aids is actually much longer than you might expect. Please help us find him a great home, he's had such a hard start and deserves a chance to lead a happy life. Contact Sheila at 813-531-6171, or send an email to army_chick14@hotmail.com and put "Champ" as the subject.
