ADOPTABLE & RESIDENT CATS
Meet Our Cats
Every cat you see here is part of our mission to give Indianapolis cats the lives they deserve. Some are waiting to be adopted, others are long-time residents, but all of them play a role in helping us reduce overcrowding in shelters and spread more love in our community.

About me: INDOT is named after the Indiana Department of Transportation, but her true calling has been repairing hearts. Just a baby herself, she raised her own litter of kittens and then immediately stepped in to mother three more who arrived at the shelter freezing and in need of a new mama. INDOT can be a little shy at first, but the tiniest crack of a wet food can turns her into a playful, zoomy girl who keeps up with kittens half her size. Now officially retired from motherhood, this snowstorm-tested sweetheart is ready for a forever home where she can finally be the one doted on.

About me: A gentle giant, Newman just wants to be your baby. He'll do his VERY best to fit on a lap and it's really endearing watching him trying to size you up for cuddles. He loves attention and other cats! If you scratch his butt, he'll just flop around and purr like a giant baby!

About me: Fia is a bright, independent girl with a mischievous streak. She enjoys testing boundaries and seeing just how much she can get away with. When she’s feeling affectionate, she melts right into your arms and loves being held and cuddled. If she’s not in someone’s lap, she’s busy trying to outsmart our cat‑proofing to explore new territory or darting around the house, plotting the perfect spot to surprise us as we walk by.

About me: Rosalita is an easy going, free-spirited lady who's been abandoned by more than one family over the years. She loves pets and attention slowly and at her pace, and enjoys some quiet lap time on her terms! When you least expect it, she'll be silently and slowly finding her way into your lap and melting like butter! She’s got an adorable chirpy meow and loves to chat! She enjoys other cats and is very gentle and non-territorial with them!

About me: Hello, my name is Butterscotch. My mama brought me to the porch of a kind human when I was a little kitten. They brought me inside with my sisters, where I have lived since then. I am a young, playful kitten with lots of energy. I need a home with another young cat/kitten so I can continue my playful lifestyle. I am a little shy at first, but I come out of my shell with some patience and love. I am litterbox trained, up to date on my vaccines, microchipped and spayed.

About me: Harold starts purring when his favorite person is close, rubbing against your legs and looking for ear scratches and lots of pets. He takes his job as a protective brother for his littermate, Kitty, seriously and has that look of a serious and vigilant caretaker. But his playful side comes out when he jumps for the bouncing bird on a stick toy or chases the wiggly ribbon. He’s a lover and such a sweet boy.
Harold should go to a home with another active cat/dog; his sister Kitty is available, too! He should be fed a primarily moisture-rich diet (wet food). He's fixed, vaccinated, microchipped, FIV/FeLV negative, and has a negative fecal test. Apply to adopt Harold at ARPOrescue.org

About me: Hi! I'm Otis! I am one big "chonk" of love! I was found outside as a stray and brought indoors just as the weather turned cold. I am shy, but love to be around people. I do like a good hiding place too, so I need a patient adopter who will give me my space. I would do best in a home with another cat to be a playmate and companion. I am litterbox trained, microchipped, neutered and up to date on all of my vaccines.

About me: Oscar is a former stray with a huge heart and an even bigger love for people. He’s a true companion cat who enjoys snuggling, being held, and purring nonstop. You’ll often find him following you from room to room, curled up on your lap, or sleeping nearby.
Oscar also has a playful side and loves fetching jingly toys and rolling around in catnip. He can be a bit feisty with other cats and enjoys wrestling, so he’d do best with female cats close to his size and with slow, proper introductions. He does well with calm, respectful dogs who won’t chase him.
Because of his social nature, Oscar would thrive in a home where someone is around during the day. Whether he’s helping in the kitchen or keeping you company while you relax, Oscar is ready to be a loyal and loving best friend.
Oscar is neutered, fully vaccinated, microchipped, FIV/FeLV negative, and has a negative fecal. Apply to adopt Oscar at ARPOrescue.org

About me: Arthur is a sweet, affectionate boy who loves gentle pets and cozy hangouts. When he wants some attention, he’ll happily hop up, purr loudly, and settle into his favorite spot on the bed or couch to soak up the love. He’s a true gentleman who follows the house rules and avoids countertops.
Sometimes when you turn over in bed, you’ll find Arthur already there, perched up on you, purring away, and enjoying the moment. He knows how to ask for affection in the most charming way. He also firmly believes his nails are perfect just the way they are, thank you very much.
Arthur would do best in a calm, patient home with older kids or no kids at all. He’s slow to warm up to other cats, so he’d be happiest as an only pet or with a quiet, respectful companion. Arthur previously had a flea allergy, but with regular prevention, that shouldn’t be an issue. He’s now a happy, healthy boy ready to charm his way into his forever home.
Arthur is neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, and flea treated—all ready to go! Apply to adopt Arthur today and let this loving companion steal your heart.
