Story
Introducing Stringer (formerly known as Lucky)!This gorgeous black kitty was surrendered to us by a family that couldn't care for him anymore. He was super shy when he came in, but now that he has had some time to get used to us he's showing us his true personality. Stringer doesn't really care for the other cats and will chase, so we think he would be best as an only. He also doesn't always express his feelings well, so can be quite hissy if he isn't interested in attention at the moment. We think Stringer would be best in an adult only home, preferably with seasoned cat owners that understand cat body language.Stringer is up to date on vaccines, neutered, tested negative for FIV/FELV, and microchipped.

Story
Introducing Kratos (formerly known as Storm)!What a pretty guy he is - with his all white body and grey tabby tail. He also has a stripe of tabby over his eye, similar to Kratos from the God of War video game series. He doesn't seem to really like the other cats so we think he would be best as an only cat - the person that surrendered him also said he didn't like their other cat. Kratos can get a bit anxious and doesn't know how to express his feelings, so he will rub against you for pets and affection but will grumble a bit at the same time. We think he's just a little out of sorts being around other cats and would like a nice calm environment. Due to him being a little hard to read, we think an adult only home would be best, preferably with seasoned cat owners that understand cat body language.Kratos is up to date on vaccines, tests negative for FIV/FELV, neutered and microchipped.

Story
Introducing Jazzmaster!This beautiful orange girl is about 8 years old and she really rocks! She's a loveable lady that enjoys pets and will lift her butt and tail to let you know she wants attention. Jazzmaster was brought to us by a good samaritan that was helping out a family member after a break up and the cats needed a home - unfortunately it wasn't a permanent solution due to other kitties in the house, but we are glad she found us because she is so sweet!Jazzmaster is spayed, up to date on vaccines, tests negative for FIV/FELV and will be microchipped before adoption.
