Story
Meet Coney — a clever and spirited cat with a strong personality and a curious mind. She knows what she likes and isn’t afraid to let you know! Coney can get overstimulated at times and prefers to be handled on her own terms, so she’s looking for a calm, cat-savvy home with teens or adults who understand feline body language and respect her boundaries. With the right environment and plenty of enrichment to keep her mind engaged, Coney will thrive. She’s not your average lap cat — she’s an independent thinker who’s just waiting for the right people to appreciate her unique charm.Recommendations: Children 10+Home with no children may be best!

Story
Meet Gargamel — a strikingly handsome feline who`s still discovering his true self in the shelter environment. While he may seem a bit reserved at first, give him time and patience, and you`ll see his personality begin to shine. Gargamel is a big fan of mealtime and takes his food seriously — so much so that he prefers to dine without interruptions. Because of this, he`d thrive in a home with older children who understand cat behavior and can respect his boundaries. If you`re looking for a special companion who just needs a little space and understanding to blossom, Gargamel might be the perfect match for you.

Story
Hello, I`m Diamond. I may be a bit shy when we first meet, but give me some time and I`ll show you my sweet, loyal side. I enjoy quiet moments, a gentle touch, and the soft sound of a friendly voice. I`m not the kind of cat who demands constant attention, but I do cherish the company of those I trust. I`m a good listener too, and I promise to be there for you, quietly purring by your side, on good days and bad. I might need a little time to come out of my shell, but once I do, I`ll be your faithful companion. I`m looking for a forever home, with someone who understands that my love, once given, is unshakeable. I`m not just a cat, I`m a friend. I`m Diamond, and I promise, I`m worth the wait. *Diamond is a bonded pair with her sister Marble and they must go home together.*
