Story
Cooper has only ever been inside. He is very kiddish. Does not really like other animals.. Likes to be cuddled and a big baby. He loves to be pet and likes to play a lot. Hes a lot of fun and full of energy. He will let you know if he does not like something. He knows his name well and if you give him commands he usually understands the general no and come here with a pat down. Super smart and loving. He;s also very vocal.

Story
Hello, I am wanting to rehomed my sweet baby 🥺 She’s an amazing cat but needs lots of love. She’s spunky and adventurous, always making you laugh. If you like having company and cuddles all day, then she’s your girl. She tolerates kids but not if they are hyper. She doesn’t really hate other animals, but she just prefers being alone. She is declawed in the front and back(previous owners decision). I originally took her in about 6 years ago because she needed a home with more love and attention. But since I live alone the only places I could afford were 1 pet only. So I made this hard decision to rehome her. I would like to give her to a calm and loving home where I can possibly stay in touch ❤️

Story
Rocco is a very talkative and loving cat. He was our baby before we had kids and is jealous and attention hungry. We would rather he could live with someone who has the time to give him the love he deserves. He is very beautiful and so sweet.

Story
Blu is searching for her special forever home. 💙 At around 3.5 months old, she’s already faced the challenges of life on the streets, rescued alongside her sister—who has since found her own family. Blu came from a small colony where her mom and grandma were unsterilized, continuously giving birth to kittens who rarely survived. Thankfully, we were able to step in, and Blu’s mom is now safe in foster care, pregnant again, but with a brighter future ahead. Blu has blossomed into an incredibly affectionate and gentle young cat, with strikingly unique stripes that reflect her one-of-a-kind spirit. She’s past the wild kitten phase and is ready to bring love and companionship into her new home. All she needs now is someone to offer her a second chance at a happy, stable life. Could you be the one Blu is waiting for? *Blu is fully vetted and vaccinated

Story
I got Izzy from someone online about 2 years ago, when I got her she was about 5 months old. After some research I believe she is a Bombay breed, she is all black, whiskers and all. I joke and call her a black panther due to her color and structure. Izzy can be shy and a little skittish at first but she is so affectionate and loves rubs after being comfortable.

Story
Max is about 9 years old and his brother Sam is about 7 years old. They are brothers from different litters. Max is pretty outgoing and Sam is a little more shy. He’ll run and hide when someone knocks on the door. Then he’ll come out to visit after a little while. They both love rubbing up against you. Max is the lap cat that loves being talked to and loved on. Sam is the total opposite, he loves to be petted but doesn’t really like to sit on your lap. They are both ready to eat when you wake up in the morning. They sit by the door where there food is until I feed them. Now Max had surgery on his right ear from a hematoma a few years ago but he is fine now. He needs his ears cleaned out about every 2 weeks to keep them clean. I do the same to Sam while I’m at it. I also trim the tips of their nails to keep them trimmed. Other than that they love to run and play together and chase each other around. They have always been together so I’d like them to go together when adopted.
