Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Little Miss Eva was adopted as a kitten and returned to us 4 years ag. She was super stressed at first and it took her a good bit of time to come around, but now she is a love bug. She not a big fan of being held but she loves attention. She can have a bit of an attitude with the other cats in her foster home so she would probably enjoy getting all the attention. She is about 9 years old. If you are interested in adopting please visit our website and fill out an application.

Hi my name is Krissy! I arrived at the shelter after my owner could no longer care for me. I am a beautiful kitty who loves to talk. If you come say hi, I'll say hi back! I am a sweet, affectionate girl who misses being in a home. I am like an Everything Bengal!! Could you be my purrfect play friend? I LOVE toys!!!  *please note Krissy is  VERY vocal and in the beginning stages of kidney failure. Her life expectancy is 8 months to 8 years. At the moment, she is not on any medication or special diet. We are monitoring her condition.  November 20, 2024, 10:35 am

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.We have several cats that have been with us for years. They were not socialized as kittens and are scared. They can be adopted out to someone who is willing to be patient with them and give them the time they need to feel safe. If no adoption home is found for them, they will remain safe in the care of the rescue. We will post more specific details about each one soon.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.October 22, 2024, 12:58 pm

Story
Hello, I am Everest. I came to the shelter after being transferred from HAP, but I as originally a stray. I am sweet but shy. I love to watch the birds flying and to be a couch potato! Come meet me!   This cat has tested positive for feline leukemia. This is a virus that affects the immune system of the cat and can cause secondary and serious illnesses. This virus is contagious to other cats by contact with secretions of infected cats (saliva, blood, urine), mating with an infected cat, or if the mother passes it to her baby during birth. Many cats who become infected with the virus can clear it with a working immune system. Some cats have the progressive form and these are the ones who are terminally infected and have an average life expectancy of 3-5 years after diagnosis.   They are contagious and most succumb to FeLV-associated diseases (such as cancer, severe anemia, etc).  Unfortunately, this cat did test positive for the progressive type of this disease.  This cat should not be housed with other cats who are not also FeLV positive. This is not contagious to humans or non-feline animals.November 4, 2024, 12:42 pm
