Story
Mr. lovebug, Tux is looking for his forever home! He will follow you around the house and be your best friend. He is very sweet, and purrs easily! He is quick to retreat when you are not available. He'll sit next to me on the sofa, very close to being in my lap, but not quite. He sleeps on our bed every night and gives me a few very gentle taps when he's ready to get up. If I don't respond, he goes back to the end of the bed for another nap. He always his litterbox, he likes his 1/2 can of Friskees beef twice a day to keep his tummy happy. Plus dry food and fresh water. Tux is a super nice cat.If you would like more information about this sweet guy, contact Jill at 978-969-2389 or dsajill1@yahoo.com

Story
August (Auggie) is a 12 year old sweet boy. I adopted him from a woman in Arizona when he was 3 years old, because her new husband was allergic to cats. He has been with me through EVERYTHING including various moves, breakups, grad school, getting married, and having my daughter. I love him so much, that I feel like rehoming would be the best thing for him. When my husband and I moved in together, we each had our own cats. Unfortunately, August has not been able to adjust to having a cat brother. For the last 2 years, my normally sweet, outgoing, playful, cuddly, social boy, has become sad, reclusive, and picking fights with the other cat. We have done everything we can to help him adjust, but he refuses. He is great around humans, even my 1 year old daughter, but feels threatened and can not stand to live with another cat. I am looking to rehome him because I just want him to be happy. Hoping to find someone who wants to give lots of love to this sweet boy.
