Story
This is Aspen; a kitty that was rescued by a good Samaritan, last year. Unable to place her with one of our fosters, we have provided support to the finder while Aspen is in her care. We have a very hard time finding foster homes for adult cats but they need representation and the finders still need help with responsible rehoming. We shared resources with Aspen's finder, early on, in hopes that another organization could help. She followed up on those resources and VOCAL helped by spaying the cat and giving her vaccines. This was where the kitty was named Aspen (which is also our director's name). She needed a name and it was a very sweet gesture to name her after one of our team. And we hope to do right by both Aspen kitty and her finder foster. We have networked her before with no luck. We wanted to bring her story back to light, once more, because she really needs a forever home. Her finder has kept her for 6 months but cannot continue to keep her. She has nowhere to go and the dynamic in the household has shifted a bit. She is causing disturbances among the existing pets in the house and the time has come to relieve the finders. Please share Aspen's pictures and story. She is one of so many ownerless, nameless cats. Left to live a life of hardship on the street. She has been one of the lucky ones, so far. She has had a village behind her between her finder foster, VOCAL - Voices of Change Animal League, Ocala and Quality of Life Rehab & Foster, Inc. Let's continue building her village up around her and find this gorgeous queen a castle to call her own! Cat adoption: https://petstablished.com/adoption_form/31710/generic ##1655839##

Story
Celi is a very sweet, calm-tempered kitten, about 5 mos old now. He is playful with other cats and people, loves cuddles, and handles the rough play he gets from my 4 year old outstandingly. Ideally I would love to see him rehomed with his sister, Korra, but this is not a necessity. He is fixed, is currently up to date on shots and dewormer, and is currently fed Purina One with wet food each night. He is litter box trained and has not had any accidents the last 2-3 months. He would be an outstanding family kitty, or just for someone who loves cuddles. He loves to nuzzle up on your neck and purr himself to sleep.

Story
Korra is a sweet, loving, and playful kitten, about 5 months old. Ideally, I would like to see her go with her brother, Celi, however it's not a requirement. I saved her from a bad situation as well as her brother, but she is very healthy now and is wel trained. She is very affectionate and talkative, and loves to play. She is good with kids, but doesn't care for the rough handling and play of kids younger than 5. My older child of 12 and her get along swimmingly. We need to find her a new home because we cannot afford to take care of more cats, otherwise I would hate to lose her. She is a sweet little girl looking for a loving home!

Story
Hi! Gift is a 5-year-old boy. I adopted him in January 2024 when he was a 5-month kitten. We have lived together for 5 years, and he is a very friendly and lovely cat. He has been living well with other cats and dogs of my roommates for over one year. Due to a recent change in my health, I've developed an allergy to cats. It's a difficult decision, but I want to ensure Gift continues to live a happy and comfortable life in a loving home. If you feel that you could be the perfect match for Gift, please reach out! I'd be happy to tell you more about him and arrange a meeting.
