Story
Luna was found four months ago living at an abandoned house. She is very sweet and playful. Only a year old. Would need a very slow intro to other cats. She did try to fight my bf's cat. I don't know about dogs. We cant keep her since we already have cats and can't afford it. We are very fond of her and will interview and house check the adopter. Probably not a good choice for homes with small kids because she has claws and I am against declawing (It is cruel). She is litter box trained 100 percent. Very active cat, loves to run laps and play with her toys. She has a shiney fluffy coat. She gets eye goops so I run a humidifier in the room she is kept in and it helps. She is a healthy cat. Her poop was tested and she is parasite free. Also does not have fleas. She can only be adopted to someone who lives in Peoria IL or no more than one hour away since I will be bringing her to see what her living conditions will be. Will be spayed in Feb. Won't adopt to indoor smokers

Story
This is Wren, short for Arwen (from the Lord of the Rings). She's approximately 11 years old, maybe 12. She is just the sweetest cat. She loves people & all the snuggles!! She tolerates dogs, but unfortunately doesn't do well with other cats. She needs to be the only cat in the household. We took Wren in after my mother-in-law passed away. We already have 2 other cats and, at first, things went really well, but eventually we realized she needs to be by herself. We have a spare room in which she's made her safe area, but we are now expecting a baby & we will need the bedroom. We are hoping to find her a home where she can give all the snuggles & get all of the pets she deserves, without being made anxious by other cats. I will provide food & litter for a year if you adopt her. It breaks our hearts to have to let her go. She's actually the sweetest of all our cats. Please don't be put off by how old she is, she's still as rambunctious & lively as ever, & such a lover!

Story
Cleo is 9 years old. She loves pets and snuggles. She does well with other cats and small dogs. She would probably prefer to be the only cat in the home, though. She is pretty quiet and sleeps a lot of the day. She is a little skittish at first but once she warms up to you, she is super sweet and loving. She is litter trained but required large litter box due to her size.

Story
I am a big and handsome guy! And just so, so sweet. I love to play but mostly I love to get attention and be petted! I was adopted as a young kitten but returned for having blood in my urine. It was due to crystals so now I eat special food but I use the litter box perfectly! I am a bit shy at first but come around quickly. A also love a nice lap to curl up on and adore head scratches. I have never lived with dogs, but seem okay with cats as long as I have a space of my own. Won`t you come meet me soon? I think you`ll like me!
