Our upcoming Painted Paws Silent Auction may have a non-alcoholic bar so that all our animal loving friends 16+ can attend, but thanks to Deb’s Liquor-Gates NY some of the raffle baskets sure won't be! 🍻

In case anyone missed it earlier this year, the lovely folks at Deb's Liquor saved a kitten who was hit by a car and left in their parking lot. They called in GRASP and donated to help give that sweet girl a fighting chance. Thanks to them and the GRASP team, Little Debbie not only survived, but is thriving in her now forever home!

As if saving one life isn't enough, Deb's Liquor is back to help us raise money to save even more animals with their donation of $250 worth of quality alcohol that they are supplying for our upcoming Painted Paws baskets.

Thank you Deb's Liquor from the bottom of our hearts and our glasses 🥂 for helping us save lives!

Our Tuesday 7 o'clock feature is Violet and Zinnia, the last of our flower kittens, now about 5 months old and still awaiting their forever home. 🏠

*Save $20 on their adoption fee as a bonded pair this week*

As Violet (white and black) and Zinnia (tabby with white) have been together, just the two of them for a month or so since their siblings got adopted, they have definitely become more bonded. Violet cries for Zinnia when she can't find her. Zinnia isn't quite that needy, but she does really like to have a cat around (and her sister fits the role well). 😻😻

Violet and Zinnia are both quite energetic (and can get all that energy out together), but also incredibly sweet, affectionate, and "purry".

They do well with the resident cats and dogs in their foster home.

Adorable "baby" Button is the last of her siblings waiting for adoption!

Button is a 4-month-old gray tabby (with hints of cream and peach in her fur). She is a sweet and babyish little girl, still awaiting her forever home. 🏠🩷

Button is an intense biscuit maker (sometimes accompanied by drool), who can be possessive over her toys, but absolutely loves her humans.

Her ideal home would be one where her people are home often. Perhaps retired, working from home, or a homeschooling family? Button wasn't sure when she met an excitable toddler, so she would probably do best with school aged children.

Button is respectful of the senior resident cats in her foster home, but with her kitten energy she would do well with a friendly and playful kitty (that understands some toys are too special to share). 😼

Our Monday 7 o'clock kitty is 5-month-old Guppy! 😻

Some of you may remember Guppy from her first bio which discussed her feral history and struggle to trust humans. We are so happy to share that after a summer of snuggles and endless love with her amazing foster family, Guppy is a new lady! 🥰

This new temperament has Guppy playing for hours with her feline foster siblings (Betel & Orion) and for that reason she requires another cat in the house to keep up with her youthful energy.

Although she may take a bit to warm up, this sweet girl is eager to begin her new journey in a home full of love and play time. She is good with cats, patient people, and even dogs who respect her boundaries. 🧡

If you are looking for an energetic kitty with endless purrs and a playful spirit, Guppy could be the girl for you!

Meet your new best friends! These three 4-month-old brothers love a good kitten party, but they are also incredibly polite houseguests who get along wonderfully with adult cats and do their best to respect boundaries.

🖤Black Jack: The Gentle Purr-Machine🖤
If you are looking for a big boy with an even bigger heart, Black Jack is your guy. He is the largest kitten of the litter, but he is a true gentle giant. Black Jack has a motor that simply never stops - he purrs non-stop from the moment he wakes up until he falls asleep. He is laid-back, incredibly loving, and ready to fill your home with his soothing rumbles. He loves the company of other cats and knows exactly how to be a respectful roommate.

♠️Spade: The Sentimental Cuddler♠️
Spade is a world-class snuggle bug who loves nothing more than curling up right next to you. But what truly makes Spade special is his absolute devotion to his favorite purple mouse toy. He carries his beloved mouse all around the house like a prize, and if it ever goes missing, he will actively hunt and look for it until it’s safely back in his paws. Spade is sweet, quirky, and looking for a family who will help him keep track of his favorite toys. 💜

♥️Hearts: The Life of the Party♥️
True to his name, Hearts will steal yours in a second! He is the most active of the trio and is always on the lookout for his next big adventure. Hearts absolutely loves to play and will happily track down feathers, chase laser pointers, or wrestle with his brothers. When he's done playing, his social nature shines. He fits beautifully into a home with other pets because he knows exactly how to play hard while still giving older cats their space.

Our Sunday 7 o'clock kitty is 1-year-old Buzzy! 😍

Buzzy is pretty female kitty with an independent spirit. She has attended several recent adoption events, which have helped boost her confidence and allowed her to meet new people.

Buzzy is a quiet cat who enjoys hanging around near you, greeting you at the door when you get home, and even playing with your hair while you are sleeping. Fuzzy toys, wand toys, tunnels and her turbo scratcher are her favorite activities.

While she is not a big cuddler at the moment, she will definitely become more affectionate with individual attention and love. Buzzy seems to get along best with the male cats in her foster home.

Our Saturday 7 o'clock kitty is 1-year-old Peewee! 🖤

Peewee is a young kitty with a big personality and an even bigger fan club - especially his foster, who is having a very hard time letting this special boy go. But it’s time for Peewee to find a home of his own! 🏠

Peewee loves to play - with toys, with other cats, with dogs, and sometimes just with himself if nobody else is available. He still has that classic kitten energy, though at nearly eleven pounds he’s already a sturdy little guy. Because of that, he’ll do best with a patient, easygoing animal companion who doesn’t mind an enthusiastic playmate.

He absolutely needs a home with other young cats. Peewee loves to cuddle up with his feline friends and would be very lonely without them (see photo). At night, he’s also very committed to sleeping with his humans - preferably right where he can supervise everyone. 💕

Peewee does have a touch of stranger danger and may take a couple of days to feel comfortable in a new home. Very young, rambunctious children tend to make him nervous, so a calmer home would suit him best.

A few important notes about Peewee’s hobbies: He is a passionate shredder of paper products (receipts, tissues, and anything you thought was safely on the table), and he occasionally enjoys walking up to the household dog and bopping them on the nose for absolutely no reason at all.

Peewee is ready for the happy ending he deserves! 🥰

Introducing 2-year-old calico mama Rowena and her 4-month-old kittens! 😻

Rowena absolutely loves love! Head scratches, bum and belly scratches, she wants them all! She is a very cuddly girl who loves sleeping with her foster family. She was also an amazing mama to her babies, who inherited her calm and sweet personality. 😍

Sam (M) is first to rub against you for attention, only to then drop to the floor in front of you - just to make sure you see him! He absolutely loves the wand toys with feathers. He can still be a little shy, but warms up quickly. 🖤

Crowley (M) is a very handsome boy who knows just how good looking he is! He is so loving and will roll over show his belly. He has the softest fur ever! Crowley can be a little shy still, but he's easily won over with head scratches and treats. 🤎

Dean (M) is a reserved boy who really loves his mama. He will need a patient and loving family that will take their time with him. Once he feels safe, he is the sweetest kitty. 💙

Castiel (M) was the first to purr and allow his foster family to give him all the love! His favorite spots to get pets are behind his ear and on his head. Castiel is very busy - but he always comes running when he hears his humans coming! 🧡

Charlee (F) is only girl of the litter with the most beautiful face. The way to her heart is through Churu treats. As Charlee is still quite shy, she will also need a loving and patient family. 🩷

This adorable family started their lives off outside, so they will need a little patience when moving on to their forever homes. 🏠🥰

Introducing 3-month-old Skittles! (This adorable boy might not last long... apply quickly!) 😼🧡

Skittles is your typical orange tabby boy, full of personality, curiosity, and just the right amount of mischief!

This handsome little guy lives by a simple motto: Play hard, sleep harder! Whether he’s climbing anything he can get his paws on, exploring every nook and cranny, or chasing after his favorite toys, Skittles is always finding a way to entertain himself (and everyone around him!).

But don’t let his adventurous side fool you! Once he’s burned off all that kitten energy, Skittles is ready to settle in for a well-deserved nap. He’s as sweet as he is playful, making him the perfect mix of fun and affection.

After plenty of growing, playing, and perfecting his orange cat antics, Skittles is finally ready to find his forever family!
