Story
Hi! I’m OC and looking for my furever home. I wandered into a family’s backyard this summer but as it gets colder out I want a warm lap to snuggle on and watch TV. I’m shy at first, but once I get to know you I want to play, help you Google info on the computer, watch movies, and play some more. I got a clean bill of health when I was neutered, chipped, and vaccinated. The vet thinks I’m between 1 and 5 years old…I furgot to count so I don’t know either. When I was recovering from the neutering I impressed the humans with my litter box skills. I just love being cared for and express that by purring all the time (even at the vet). I’m an adaptable cat who hopes to find a warm, loving home this winter.

Story
I can be shy at times but usually I like to meet the people who come in to visit, I can get a little possessive of them and swat away any of the other cats so I can have all the attention. Otherwise I will lay around and get pet for a while then go and laydown in the sun. I am not an active boy but I make up for it in cuddles and lap time, when I'm excited to see someone I give pretty gentle love bites. I would love a nice quiet home with a human that would tend to my every need, your reward will be love bites and headbutts. If you think that sounds like fun you should put in an application today!This 4 year old purrfect felines adoption donation is $75 which includes spay/neuter, microchip, rabies vaccine, FVRCP vaccine, flea/tick preventative, and dewormer.

Story
I was pretty scared when I got to Safe Haven, but its nice here. I have a room to play in and socialize with humans and other cats, with lots of people to brush my beautiful hair. I am a little older and don't enjoy the ruff play the younger cats like, but will come out to get attention and treats. I will even tolerate some gentle brushing, but I can get a little moody and tell you with a tender warning swat that I'm done and would prefer to do something else, like sitting together or having you pet my head while I sleep in my condo. I may be older, but my 12 pound body can still climb the cat trees and I dream of a home with lots of windows to lay in and a lap to nap on when I need the attention of my human. Please submit an application if I sound like your kind of older gentleman.This 11 year old purrfect felines adoption donation is $75 which includes spay/neuter, microchip, rabies vaccine, FVRCP vaccine, flea/tick preventative, and dewormer.

Story
I came to Safe Haven with my sister and brother, we were rescued by a nice woman that wanted to give us our best chance. Now we're inside and getting used to being waited on hand and foot. I love meeting all the people who visit, I used to be scared of people but they give treats and provide playtime with those wand toys so now I can't get enough of people! I will do anything to get attention, its pretty great when people come to see me. I don't mind the company of other cats, I share a room with my siblings and two other cats. The other cats don't really care for my kitten energy and will tell me off, but that doesn't get me down. I will just try to play with someone else. If you think you'd like a guy like me in your life, please submit an application today.This 6 month old purrfect felines adoption donation is $75 which includes spay/neuter, microchip, rabies vaccine, FVRCP vaccine, flea/tick preventative, and dewormer.

Story
I came to Safe Haven with my sister and brother, we were pretty nervous being here but have come around to being around people and the noises of the shelter. I might hide whenever someone comes in to visit, but have come around to understand people are pretty great. I'm looking for a home that will give me time to decompress and adjust to life with humans, I was an outdoor girl before coming to the shelter and still see people as something that can be scary at first, but given my age I will most likely grow out of this and be a great cat.This 6 month old purrfect felines adoption donation is $75 which includes spay/neuter, microchip, rabies vaccine, FVRCP vaccine, flea/tick preventative, and dewormer.

Story
I am a shy boy at first, but with time I can really come around to love that special person, especially if they feed me. I like the company of my roommates Petey, Talent, and Biggie...we get along really well. With them I feel comfortable enough to lay out in the open...before when I was all by myself I would hide in my condo and refuse to come out no matter what. I will need some time to get used to a new home, but with the right person or family I would be a great cuddle buddy and I would do well in a home with another cat. This young man's purrfect feline adoption donation is $75 which includes spay/neuter, microchip, rabies vaccine, FVRCP vaccine, flea/tick preventative, and dewormer.
