Story
I adopted Griffin when he was a kitten from a shelter, in hopes that he would be compatible with my older cat. At first they got along but as he started getting older all he wanted to do is play. She is old and is not really able to. It turns into fights between them. He LOVES people and loves to play, but will also cuddle up at night. He would do best with some playful cats!

Story
My background so far is I was probably someone esle cat but was abandoned cause I am litter trained, prefer to be indoors, & chip but oddly leads to nowhere not even my orgins. So I decided to get cozy at someone else house but they couldn't keep me & asked someone to take me. Which leads to my current owner who were looking for another cat to befriend their current house cat. Unfortunately I'm not the type to share a household & been constantly aggressive, growling & fight their cat. ATM we are tolerable but I really want a place to myself. Other than that my owners have called me the biggest loving sweetheart who love know no boundries. Privacy is not in my vocab cause I will jump in your pants while you use the bathroom, & even stand outside the shower waiting for you to come out. Hide your food from me cause I'm a thief! NOM! I love to be petted & laying on your lap with endless possiblities of cuddling you to death. I know I'm asking a lot but I hope you considered rehoming me!

Story
Doja was recently returned to us after being with a family for 3 years.  She's a sweet cat who would prefer to be an only cat; but can live in a home with other cats as long as she has space she can be alone in .   February 1, 2025, 5:32 pm
