Story
Sirus is a young, dashing gentleman with a deep black coat so shiny and soft it’s like petting silk. His copper eyes complete his striking appearance. If you've ever wanted a black panther, there's no better fit. Even his toe beans are a deep black color. At under a year old, he’s the perfect mix of playful kitten energy and sweet affection. He’s always up for a round of wand toy chases or a snuggle session on your lap! This social boy loves other animals and would thrive in a home with a cat-friendly feline. He also does quite well with the canine folk. While he can sometimes be nervous around strangers at first, Sirus has a secret kryptonite—a squeeze treat will have him purring and making friends in no time. Sirus would do well in a home with calmer, older kids who can appreciate his friendly nature. Whether he’s playing, cuddling, or just being his charming self, Sirus is ready to bring joy and love to his forever family.

Story
~Foster to Adopt~Hi friends, my name is Beau—the most handsome, dashing, and charming 15-year-old black cat you will ever meet.I have been to MaxFund twice. The first time was because my previous owner was moving into a memory care facility. I eventually found my new owner and thought things were going well, until one day I ended up here again. But, after several months I was lucky enough to find a loving foster home! Sadly, my fosters were unable to care for me long term so I am back at the shelter. Though, I am shy at first, I eventually warm up to people. I am very playful (for an old guy) and I never met a wand toy or laser that didn’t instantly get my attention. My most recent foster mom carried me around like a clutch, which is funny because I didn’t like to be picked up at the shelter. In fact, I really started to come out of my shell in my foster home. I even got along with the family dog!Every cat’s wish is for a forever home with a forever family. Would you consider taking in a sweet old guy?

Story
Who’s the new love of your life? Me that`s who. Yep, my name Who. with the jokes, but I am an old gal, so you can’t I am the amazing Who, a beautiful, sweet, 13yr young lady who will warm your heart as soon as you come to meet me. I have been a bit down lately as my brother and I were given up by our human mama after living together for most of our lives. It was so traumatic on all of us, including our human, who needed to relinquish us because she moved in with people who were allergic to cats. It was especially hard on me as my brother looked out for me and was really outgoing so was quickly adopted once we got here, leaving me all alone. I have also been put on some thyroid medication, but that doesn’t bother me too much as it is so easy to take, but it was another change to get used to. The good thing is that there are other nice cats here even if I am really shy and don’t get out much. I guess I am a bit of an introvert now that I have experienced this heartbreak. Here at the shelter, I have a great domed bed that allows me to hide out when I want and watch all the action in my room from safety and warmth. I do get along with children and other calm cats who respect my space. I have a nice toy mouse that I like, but my favorite thing to do is cuddle. Boy, can I cuddle better than most. Especially if you walk up to my second story apartment, I will rub up against you, give you kisses, and rest my head on your shoulder.

~Foster to Adopt~Hello Wonderful People, My name is Pica but my friends call me `Pica Boo!` As you can see, I`m a gorgeous black gal with beautiful green speckled eyes. When you open my kennel door, I will pop my head out of my hidey bed and then as you pet my cheeks, chin and between my ears (which I LOVE), I will follow your touch and come towards you. This is when my friends say, `Pica Boo, I see you!` I was returned to MaxFund because my former guardian no longer wanted to pay for my one medication. This made me very confused and sad as I thought we were such a great match. Then I found myself in a new place (MaxFund) with many new neighbors, smells and sounds-- I was so scared. However, I am an optimist and have made the very best of being here. And happily, since being at MaxFund, I am no longer on any medications! I do eat a specific type of food to ensure I don`t develop any urinary issues (I have none). I like this diet just fine and it is not expensive. But... I am still a little shy. I venture out of my kennel for people who are kind, gentle, and patient with me....are you one of those people? I promise to repay you with purrs and nuzzles and life-long cuddles. At 10 years old, I truly am a middle-aged sweetie. I know cats age faster than humans BUT cats are also living longer these days so I`m sticking with calling myself middle-aged. I`m an easy-going, relaxed, calm girl. I just need a home that is similarly relaxed and quiet with no young children or dogs, please. I prefer to be an only cat. At the shelter I have not enjoyed being around other cats, however I`ve been here over a year (very sad) and it`s too much being in close proximity to other cats for so long. I MIGHT get along with an older, relaxed cat in a home with lots of space and safe spots for me. Won`t you please come meet me? I`ll be waiting for you! Love, Pica Boo

Story
Hi friends! My name is Otter and I am as cute as my name implies. (Otters are sooo cute!). Let me tell you a bit about myself. I am a very social 12-year old boy who loves to be near people. I will most certainly be in your lap within minutes of meeting you. I can be a real talker, but I won’t keep you up at night, promise! Playing with wand toys and a laser pointer are some of my favorite hobbies. I don’t like to brag, but I’ve been told that if joyfully watching birds and squirrels out of my window was an Olympic sport, I would win the gold medal. Not much fazes me. I am fine around kids and other cats as I previously lived with both. Thanks to the volunteers, I have recently started enjoying walks around the shelter in a harness safely attached to a leash. I get to explore all the nooks and crannies while being my adorable panther self. I had my right eye removed due to a chronic disease that was negatively affecting me. I am doing so much better since the enucleation! And let’s be honest, I look pretty darn cute as a one-eyed panther kitty. I was brought to MaxFund almost 2 years ago because my guardian was working long hours and felt he no longer had time for me. I was extremely sad to lose my home. I’ve been here too long and would love to be chosen to be part of a forever family again. Naturally, MaxFund’s wonderful staff and volunteers make me feel loved, however there’s nothing quite like a forever home with a forever family. I am diabetic but please don`t let that deter you! I need twice daily insulin shots and I eat special food. I take my insulin like a champ and I love food so I’m a very good eater. MaxFund staff will show you how to administer my insulin, super easy. I`d love for you to come meet me! I’m quite easy to fall in love with, I really am. If you`d like more info about me you can email our Cat Foster Coordinator at fostercats@maxfund.org
