Story
Born: April 11, 2024 Adoption Donation: $200 Meet Friday – A Gentle Soul Looking for Love Friday is a beautiful calico cutie with a quiet, gentle nature. Coming from a hoarding situation, she’s still learning to trust people, but one thing is for sure—she absolutely loves other cats! Having feline friends gives her confidence, and she would thrive in a home with a social, friendly kitty to show her the ropes. Though she’s very shy, Friday has a sweet heart and just needs a patient adopter who will give her the time and space to feel safe. If you have a calm home and a kind heart (and maybe a kitty friend waiting), Friday might be the perfect addition to your family. Are you the one to give this shy girl the love and security she deserves? All cats are microchipped, neutered, current on all vaccines, and FeLV/FIV tested at the time of adoption.

Story
Hello! I’m Buttercup, a sweet and affectionate kitty who has perfected the art of love and companionship. I adore my people and get along great with both cats and dogs- though when new visitors come over, I like to keep things low-key and observe from a safe distance until I feel comfortable.I’m a polite and independent lady. While I love attention and affection, I have one simple rule: no carrying, please! Snuggles on my terms? Absolutely. Being picked up? Hard pass. If you’re looking for a gentle, friendly feline who will happily coexist with other pets and fill your home with love, I might just be the perfect match! Let’s meet soon- I can’t wait to find my forever family!

Story
I was recently adopted and I was a really good boy but it seems that my energy level didn`t match that of my new mom (I like to move fast fast fast all the time time time!!). She was sad to bring me back but it`s loads of fun to play with all my new kitty friends. I started out as a barn cat but came to TAILS when I was just a little guy. Now that I know what it`s like to live in a home, I think I`d much prefer that to the shelter!

Story
Hello, I’m Catriona. Life has been a bit of a journey for me — I found my way to the shelter after my beloved owner passed away, and now I’m hoping to find a new forever home where I can feel safe and loved again. I’ll be upfront: I’m a bit people-selective. I like attention on my terms. I’ll let you know when I’m ready for pets, and I’ll also let you know when I’ve had enough — I appreciate a human who respects my boundaries. If you’re someone who understands that independence and affection can go hand in hand, we might be a perfect match! I’m fully litterbox trained and ready to settle into a calm, understanding home. If you think we could be a good fit, I’d love to meet you!
