Please note that due to the high demand for young kittens, most of our kittens get adopted from our social media posts before making it to this page. Our cats must be fixed, vaccinated, FIV/FeLV tested and microchipped to officiate the adoption, and kittens need to be at least 8 weeks for their spay/neuter procedure. To see kittens that will be soon available, please check our Facebook and Instagram pages.
All cats are negative for FIV/FeLV unless otherwise stated.

Pot & Kettle, female and male, DOB: September 2024
Meet Pot & Kettle (aka Pots and Pans, Mold and Spore, Pot and Reefer)! These two-month-old black-furred cuties were found abandoned in Southwest Detroit, and they’ve blossomed into the sweetest, most playful little pair.
Kettle, our fluffy boy, is a chatty goofball who loves to keep things lively, while Pot, the short-haired girl, is a fearless explorer, curious about everything. Together, they’re inseparable, cuddling and playing nonstop. They’re also big fans of table food, so you’ll need to keep an eye on your snacks around these sneaky little foodies!
They’re great with other cats, and though they’re still warming up to dogs, they might adjust with time. Ideally, they’d love to go to the same home (or one with another kitten buddy to keep up with their antics)! Ready for some extra love—and a few snack thieves?

Hazel, female, DOB: August 2024
A kind stranger spotted Hazel and her two siblings, Hunter and Kiahla, huddled together in the grass of Southwest Detroit. They were taken in by DAC when it was clear the mother cat would not return for the neonatal kittens. Hazel and her littermates weighed less than 0.5 lb and were covered in fleas when they were brought inside. At their first vet appointment, the kittens were diagnosed with cerebellar hypoplasia, commonly known as wobbly cat syndrome. They have varying levels of difficulty with balance and coordination. As of 10/28/2024, the kittens are roughly 10 weeks old.
Hazel is a black domestic shorthair with orange around the eyes. She has a noticeable wobble, which she has adapted to by jumping around. When Hazel has the zoomies, she jumps around the room like a popcorning guinea pig. She does not have difficulty using the litter box, but one with a low entrance is recommended. Hazel is very curious about her foster parents and enjoys staring at them a few inches from their faces. She has a lot of energy and loves to play with wands and ball track toys. After a play session, she likes to cuddle with her siblings and her foster parents. Good with cats, behavior with dogs unknown.
Hunter, male, DOB: August 2024
A kind stranger spotted Hunter and his two sisters, Kiahla and Hazel, huddled together in the grass of Southwest Detroit. They were taken in by DAC when it was clear the mother cat would not return for the neonatal kittens. Hunter and his littermates weighed less than 0.5 lb and were covered in fleas when they were brought inside. At their first vet appointment, the kittens were diagnosed with cerebellar hypoplasia, commonly known as wobbly cat syndrome. They have varying levels of difficulty with balance and coordination. As of 10/28/2024, the kittens are roughly 10 weeks old.
Hunter is a domestic longhair with black and gray fur. He developed his gray undercoat with age, which his foster parents affectionately refer to as penguin fur. He has a big appetite and needs to be slowed down when eating kibble. He loves toys as much as food. He is often seen running around with a toy mouse in his mouth.Hunter is the least wobbly out of his siblings. His wobble is more noticeable when walking slowly or jumping down from high places. Otherwise, he is like any other kitten, just clumsier. Good with cats, behavior with dogs unknown.
Kiahla, female, DOB: August 2024
A kind stranger spotted Kiahla and her two siblings, Hunter and Hazel, huddled together in the grass of Southwest Detroit. They were taken in by DAC when it was clear the mother cat would not return for the neonatal kittens. Kiahla and her littermates weighed less than 0.5 lb and were covered in fleas when they were brought inside.

As of 10/28/2024, the kittens are roughly 10 weeks old.
Kiahla is a domestic shorthair with tortoiseshell fur. She is the wobbliest of her siblings and the cuddliest as well. She loves to cozy into a warm lap while watching her siblings play. Walking long distances can be tiresome for her, so she prefers to be carried around. It is recommended for her to live in a home with multiple low-entrance litter boxes. She would also benefit from ramps and carpeted floors. Kiahla loves wet food and puree treats like Churu. She appreciates being held up while licking her plate clean. Despite her physical limitations, she is still able to walk and play with her siblings. Good with cats, behavior with dogs unknown.

Frankie, female, DOB: June 2024, FeLV+
Sweet Frankie girl is precious in every sense of the word. Though FeLV+, that doesn’t stop her from being her best! She loves to play with and chase her brothers, but is just as comfortable curling up on the couch. She is shaping up to be quite the lap cat and will flop over for belly rubs and chest scratches, all while purring and flexing her paws in the air.
Frankie is spunky, confident, and can hold her own during playtime with her litter mates. She is curious, loves toys with feathers, and is a total catnip fiend. She is very attached to her brother, Murphy, and they would like to stay together if possible. If you’re looking for the sweetest little girl around, you’ve found her! Good with cats and dogs. Reduced adoption fee of $80
Murphy, male, DOB: June 2024, FeLV+
Meet the most handsome gentleman, Murphy. Murph Man is the most polite member of his litter from Hubbard Farms. He waits patiently for his turn for pets or treats, and even gives gentle kisses on hands and legs when he feels safe around his humans.
Murphy is on the shy side, and is still getting used to living inside. He has made incredible strides while being in foster, but needs a home with someone who is patient and kind, and can help him come out of his shell. Fortunately, Murph LOVES catnip and is always quick to warm up to whoever can help him get his fix.
Murphy would most likely benefit from a home with other cats, but he is both cat and dog friendly. He and his sister Frankie are best friends, and would like to go to the same home if possible. Murphy’s sweet and gentle disposition will make him a beloved friend to his forever home.
Unfortunately Murphy tested positive for Feline Leukemia. This is not, however, a death sentence! FeLV is a retrovirus that weakens the immune system and shortens their lifespan, but they can still live happy and normal lives if kept indoors. Though it only spreads to other cats, it does spread more easily than FIV through close contact, so they should be only housed with other FeLV+ cats.
So if you already have a FeLVie who needs a friend, Murph Man might be your man!

Blueberry, male, 12 years
Introducing Blueberry, our charming and slightly more independent senior cat! This handsome grey gentleman has a medium-length coat that’s as soft as his personality. While he might not be as people-obsessed as some, he absolutely loves affection—especially cheek and neck scratches! Blueberry enjoys exploring his surroundings and has a playful side, but he would prefer a home without dogs, unless it’s a very, very chill pup. He thrives in a calm environment where he can do his own thing while still enjoying those precious moments of petting and companionship. Rescued from Hubbard Farms in Southwest Detroit, Blueberry has made a wonderful recovery and is ready to find his forever home. He gets along well with other cats and is always up for a little playtime. Thanks to generous donors, Blueberry received the care he needed to flourish, and now he’s ready to bring joy to a loving home. If you’re looking for a sweet, easygoing companion who appreciates the little things in life, Blueberry might just be the purr-fect fit! Come meet him and see how he can brighten your days!

Owl, female, 6 years, Special Case (shy)
Miss Owl was left outside in a carrier in the rain all night in front of DACC in 2021. She was shortly adopted in Hamtramck and she came in very scared and shy. When taken to get spayed, it turned out she already was, so she must’ve been someone’s pet, though she wasn’t microchipped. She preferred to live in one bedroom, her adopters office, and slowly got used to him and would sit on his lap during work from home pandemic time. The adopters had another lady cat at the time and Owl avoided her like the plague. They hissed if they made contact but didn’t fight. But recently, their other cat passed away and to their surprise, Owl started coming out of her room! She’s been having fun getting comfy in all corners of the house and has warmed up to people. She definitely needs to be an only cat though. Personality wise, she’s a big grumpy sausage that has grudgingly learned to like people. She likes snoozing in the sun, snuggling your feet at night, and climbing up into your lap for a few pats. Not too into toys unless it’s a string or a laser pointer, but she does love to tear up cardboard cat scratchers and do the post-poop zooms. She has grown on her humans very much but alas one of them developed terrible cat allergies recently, and needs to have a pet free home for a couple of years. Owl is a completely adoptable little chunk but will need time to warm up and single cat attention from her human. Fixed, vaccinated, FIV/FeLV negative and with a reduced adoption fee of $60.
Artemis, female, 1 year, Special Case (shy)
Artemis is a rare ginger girl of 1 year, rescued in Belle Isle last year with Shredder. She is an extremely effective huntress but can be somewhat scaredy of humans. She is highly energetic, intelligent, playful, and an entertaining companion once you gain her trust. Fixed, vaccinated, FIV/FeLV negative and available now! Reduced adoption fee of $60.
