My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Magpie is a lovable, purr-powered explorer with a heart full of affection. Her signature squeaky, raspy purr never stops—whether she’s soaking up pets, sniffing out new discoveries, or just enjoying life. While receiving attention or while exploring, you're also sure to see Magpie’s tail puff up. Once she’s comfortable, her playful side shines. One of her most adorable habits is flopping onto her side and rolling around next to you, an unmistakable invitation for affection. With Magpie around, there’s never a quiet moment—just an endless stream of purrs and cuddles.

All cats and kittens come spayed and neutered, microchipped and vaccinated. Adoption fees are $50.00 for adult cats and $75.00 for kittens under 6 months old at the time of adoption. Our adoptions are done by approved applications, so you must apply and be approved before being able to meet any of our cats or kittens.

To be approved, you can apply in person or online at:
https://www.storycountyiowa.gov/1486/Adoption-Application
Applications can take a few business days to be approved and you will be emailed with communications regarding your application.
