MEET OUR ADOPTABLE PANTHERS

(Please note that we only have 12 cats in the cat lounge at any given time. Our partner rescue, Binx’s Home for Black Cats, often has many more adoptable panthers in individual foster homes and you can see those cats on their website and submit an adoption application here.

  • Sweet Pea

    12 year old female

    Sweet Pea has lived quite the life. After a 12-year-long journey across the cosmos, she landed here in Asheville. That UFO you swear you saw that one time? Yeah, Sweet Pea was probably behind the wheel. If you're lucky, you'll catch her blepping - this is a tactic she learned from her travels to Jupiter, where the aliens taught her all the best ways to pull on a human's heartstrings.

  • Pippin

    15 year old female

    After years in service as the faithful house cat to a family that had the audacity to add human children to its ranks, Pippin decided to retire. She is seriously considering a new career as a population control specialist. Pippin believes there are far too many humans and cats being brought into the world and someone needs to advocate for less procreation!

  • Ms. Saxobeat

    8 year old female

    Special Needs

    Ms. Saxobeat, formerly known as Mr. Saxobeat until we took a peek under that short little tucked tail, is quite a renaissance woman. She sings with breathtaking vocals, dances like a bird in flight, and she's recently taken up improv acting. Ms. Saxobeat is always on the move, but she's looking for the perfect human(s) to come home to after a long day of being a fabulous celebrity. Could you be Ms. Saxobeat's biggest fan?

  • Equity

    11 month old male

    BONDED WITH INCLUSION

    PENDING ADOPTION

    Equity is very committed to saving the planet. He thinks us humans need to take some inspiration from the animal world and go back to our hunter-gatherer roots. He's a bit of an anarchist.

  • Inclusion

    11 month old male

    BONDED WITH EQUITY

    PENDING ADOPTION

    At only 11 months old, Inclusion has just opened up his own bakery. His passion started when he was born; he would make biscuits with his siblings every morning, afternoon, and evening. He was making so many biscuits that he simply had to start selling them, and that's how the bakery began. Now, he's expanded to other sweet treats, too: cupcakes, cookies, even pies.

  • Marnie

    10 month old female

    BONDED WITH SHOSHANNA

    Marnie is ambitious, persistent, and self-assured. She has big dreams of becoming a famous singer, and she's been searching for her ideal musical partner: someone who can both play the guitar and foster a dramatic romantic entanglement between the two of them. The theatrics would be great for publicity!

  • Shoshanna

    10 month old female

    BONDED WITH MARNIE

    Shoshanna has spent her whole kittenhood following the rules, but she's ready to break free from this rigid lifestyle and start taking some risks! She's been thinking about bleaching her hair and moving to Japan, maybe working at a cat café over there. The world is her oyster, and she's ready to find the pearl!

  • Lasagna

    9 month old female

    Lasagna is a board game lover. Shoots and ladders, monopoly, the game of life, she can't get enough! She recently found a book of card games that someone left behind in the lounge, and she's been studying it so that she can have the upper hand when she challenges the other cats to some new games. She has a reputation to uphold!

  • George

    1 year old male

    George was in school for engineering, but he dropped out last week. He wants to do his own thing without the pressure of due dates and grades! So, he came to House of Black Cat Magic to study the handiwork of Kate Benjamin, who designed the cat lounge. He's hoping to collab with her on a line of cat trees someday soon!

  • Astoria

    1 year old female

    Astoria came to us with a litter of two, and now she's ready for her fledglings to leave the nest. It's time for Astoria to embark on a new adventure, and the possibilities are endless! Maybe she'll learn how to fly a plane, or enroll in fashion design school, or maybe she'll start an underground mice fighting ring... is that ethical? Astoria will need a nice human to guide her through this new stage of life and make sure she stays out of trouble. Could that be you?!

  • Sombra

    2 year old male

    Sombra, much like his name, exists like the sun behind a cloud or cloaked in shadow. He's one big ol' boi who was living a life of adventure before coming to HBCM. He's a bit of an enigma and fancies himself as man of mystery. What he will decide his future to be like is yet to be determined.

  • Galegi

    7 month old male

    Galegi, pronounced "gah-lay-gee," means "black snake" in Cherokee. Many people associate snakes with trickery and manipulation, but Galegi isn't like that at all! Sometimes he pretends like he hasn't been fed so that he can get second breakfast, but other than that, he's super honest!
