Story
Hunter was abandoned by his previous owner. My husband’s aunt found him and rescued him. He was then given to us. He has been such a blessing to us! He is not a typical cat. He’s very friendly and loves being around people. He is very playful. We are in the process of moving and are unable to take Hunter with us. We want to ensure that his new home is just as good or even better than ours. We will give his new owner(s) all of his belongings including automatic feeders (food and water), automatic litter, regular food dish, regular litter box, cat tower, cat tunnels, and cat toys.

Story
OJ was born feral, initially fed/sheltered on porch from about 2 mos. old. She is a female (rare) orange tabby and will be 10 mos. old June 2. She has been in basement for approx. past 2+ months & no accidents w/litter box She was pregnant when spayed so will likely remain small, currently weighing 6.8 lbs. Besides vet, I’ve been her only human contact but last visit to get spay sutures out & booster shot she did not fuss at all. Current on all shots and parasite free. Jumps in lap to get Churu and comes often for petting while purring loudly - so sweet! Has her favorite wand toy & plays by herself with small ball and carries it around. OJ has met my cat, was not aggressive in any way, but Lucy doesn't seem to like her much, I think because OJ wants to play and Lucy is old now with medical issues (me too). Looking for a person who will keep her an "indoor cat only" & preferably with a dog/cat companion in the house. She will be shy at first so patience needed too while she adjust

Midnight

Domestic Mediumhair

Female, Adult

Details
Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Midnight had a difficult life before finding her current home. She was abandoned and gave birth while living outside, and she has a burn mark on her back where fur no longer grows. About two years ago, she came inside after needing daily medication for a tooth issue. Because of her past, she takes time to trust new people. At first, she may keep her distance, hiding or watching from afar. But once she feels safe, she becomes incredibly affectionate. She loves to be close—often curling up beside you or pressing against you to stay connected. She may be a bit cautious around other cats and prefers her own space. Midnight is a gentle, loving cat who just needs a patient home and a caring person to bond with.

Story
Sweet Marble has been through a lot. Before coming into my life, she was abandoned on the street with a broken tail and survived a difficult pregnancy that nearly cost her life, leaving some minor health issues. Despite this, she is the sweetest, most loving cat I’ve ever met. She’s friendly with everyone and starts purring the moment you approach. She loves being close and will happily nap beside you. A few important notes for adopters: she enjoys indoor living but also loves exploring outside in nice weather, so a home with safe indoor/outdoor access would be ideal. Due to past injuries, she has limited bowel control and may urinate in her sleep. She uses the litter box and often rests on designated blankets or training pee pads, but accidents can happen. While she may not be a bed-sleeping cat, she makes up for it with endless affection.

Izzy loves other cats. She is not convinced humans are her friends .  So she will do best with an experienced cat person who has a young cat that needs a friend. Izzy has perfect litterbox and scratching post skills.  Will you give this petite beauty the loving home that convinces her to give humans a chance? ##2630600##

Story
***Shy but a sweet boy looking for his furever person **** Theo is a 2-year-old, dark, male tabby with big, round, soulful eyes. Once he settles in he is oh-so affectionate, rubbing around your legs and following you around. He lives for pats, strokes, and cuddles. Very easy going, he gets along well with other cats be they rambunctious or retiring. Quite energetic, he needs lots of space to move around in, but is very much a well mannered house cat. ##2512767##
