Story
Cyber is a sweet and playful cat that loves to snuggle. She has a hard time differentiating between playing with my 7 and 2 1/2 year old and them just laying around the areas with her. She loves my 7 year old but if he tries to get up she’ll scratch or bite him to stop him from moving her or if he’s laying on the couch she’ll jump up and swat at him. She’s gotten his eye twice now. She’ll grab a hold of my 2 1/2 year old’s arm when he’s petting her to scratch and bite him. We believe she needs a home without small children. She is litter box trained, good with other cats, loves to sleep and snuggle with you. She due for her last set of vaccines that are a bit late to us having a bunch of sickness since December and my youngest son’s therapy being moved around a lot so I can’t schedule, but I can provide all her records and microchip information. She is also spayed. Please contact Christian for more information!

Story
Hello there, I'm Junior! My days are filled with adventures around the shelter, exploring every nook and cranny. When I'm not on a mission, I love to play. Toys, strings, laser pointers, you name it! I can be a bit shy when we first meet, but give me a little time and I'll show you my sweet side. I'm just a young cat, with a whole life of love to give. I may be small, but my heart is huge. Adopting me means gaining a loyal friend who will always be there to cheer you up with my playful antics and sweet purrs. I promise, we'll make the purr-fect team!

Story
Hello there! I'm Forrest, named after that famous movie character, Forrest Gump. Just like him, I've had some mobility issues in the past, but I'm all better now. You should see me chase a laser pointer! I've got a lot of love to give and I'm looking for someone who can appreciate my unique blend of silly and sweet. I promise to bring laughter, love, and a little bit of mischief into your life. I love my shelter family, but I really want a home to call my own. I get overlooked because I require a special diet, it just helps me stay regular, if you catch my drift, but that doesn't stop me from being the life of the party. I'm looking for a family who can appreciate my quirky personality and accommodate my dietary needs. Adopt me and let's make some fun memories together!

Story
Had her since she was born (took in a pregnant stray) and adopted her out. Her adopter ended up in an unsafe environment and could no longer take care of her so I offered to take her back. She does not get along with any of my other animals so I thought it best to adopt her back out to a home where she can be the only other animal. She was born March 7, 2023 so she will be two years old this coming March. She was super hissy when she first arrived back to me, but after she got used to her environment she was very clingy and loving, wanting to sleep on my chest and around my neck practically every night. When we began introducing her to my other two cats it became clear she preferred the only child life. It didn’t help that my younger cat is an asshole, he hasn’t liked her since they first met face to face. I think she’ll just be better in an environment where she is the only cat/dog in the household. Her previous adopter named her Ginger, though she responds to both Ginger and Cassie.

Bombay is affectionate, calm and easy going. He is friendly, loyal and responds to his name ‘Bombay’ with a sweet “meow!” He gets along with other cats but does have a habit to urine spray to show dominance. He is a special needs kitty as he is on daily medication for megacolon. Bombay is on prescription food due to experiencing urinary blockage. Please consider the medical needs and expenses when adopting Bombay. He is a 9-year-old white and black American Shorthair with a cap and saddle pattern.
