Looking for a cat who will melt right into your arms? Katniss Everbean is a certified cuddle champion who lives for being picked up and held like a baby. This affectionate sweetheart will happily snuggle into your chest, purring contentedly as you carry her around like your feline shadow. When she's not soaking up all the snuggles, she transforms into a playful little sprite, especially when wand toys come out! With lightning-fast reflexes and boundless energy, she’ll chase and pounce like a pro – then go right back to curling up in your lap for another round of cuddles. She is a very confident and social cat, and is always a good host whenever visitors arrive. She loves to greet guests with a friendly mew! She loves chin scratches and being picked up. If you want a shoulder cat, Katniss is the one for you. Katniss would thrive in an active home with other pets, children, and active adults - where she can get the attention she deserves. If you want a best friend who’s equal parts lovebug and playmate, Katniss Everbean is your perfect match! Prior to adoption, all cats are spayed/neutered, tested for FIV/FELV, vaccinated and microchipped. This cat is in a foster home.

House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Rocky is our biggest little guy. A confident guy, with a distinctly gentle personality, he watches over our cat colony. While others have come and gone, been adopted out or moved on to hang out at other homes nearby, Rocky has been with us since 2020. Rocky enjoys our company, and is always curious to meet people who come to visit. He enjoys sitting on laps, getting pets, and playtime. Rocky loves when it's time to get his coat brushed, and really gets into it. Though only around 6 years old, his old soul makes him a good candidate of someone seeking companionship. He does well with female cats but his dominant personality comes out with other males, whether they are fixed or not. Rocky is being cared for by a member of the community.
