Story
Almost 1-year-old Winnie is a beautiful and petite house panther. She really just thinks the world is a little too "peoply." Trapped as a 3-month-old kitten in a feral community, we took a chance on taking her in to see if she could be a house cat, and she CAN! But she's not a fan of the touching. She IS a fan of playing with people holding toys, and even taking treats right out of their hand -- just not the touching, No petting, no petting! She doesn't scratch or bite, she just jumps away and glares at you balefully, until you feel the full shame of trying to mar her royal sleekness with your grubby human paws. Seriously, what were you thinking? Do YOU feel like the world is just a little too "peoply" sometimes, too? Do you enjoy museums, where you can admire beautiful things, and are okay with not being permitted to handle them? Is this persnickety princess your soulmate? If so, please complete a FOR Animals adoption application, right here: https://form.jotform.com/foranimalsstl/pet-adoption-information-form

Story
Hi!! My name is Abby. I was rescued from Jefferson County Animal Control along with my 4 kittens. The kittens have all been adopted, but I am still looking for my furever home. I am a very pretty, quiet girl who usually minds her own business. I am very shy and will hide when visitors come over. I spend most of my time on a perch where I can nap in peace. Usually I just watch all the activity, but occasionally I will chase the laser light. My favorite thing to do is to nap on my foster Dad’s lap. I’ll even share his lap with other kitties.I’m not a cuddly cat, but will come to you when I want attention. I get freaked out if you try to pick me up, so you have to wait for me to come to you. I used to be very skittish but have come a long way recently. I will even let you walk up and pet me most of the time now. Just a few months ago I would have run away and hidden.I would probably be happiest being the only cat in the house, but I might consider sharing my humans with another cat if it wasn’t aggressive. I am used to dogs and I don’t really mind them. We just leave each other alone. I have not been around children, but would not do well with them since I am so shy and afraid to be picked up. I might be happiest in a quiet home with an older adult (probably a man) who would love to spoil me and give me a nice comfy lap to sleep on.I will need a special family who is patient with me while I get used to new surroundings. I’m not too adventurous when it comes to new things. But if you give me time I just might be your new lap cat!My adoption fee is $75.00 and includes all testing, spaying, microchipping. I am also up-to-date on shots. If you’d like to meet me, please contact my foster Mom. I don’t go to adoption events because I get too scared there, so we would need to make other arrangements to get acquainted. I’ll be ready when you are!DeniseFoster Mom314.322.5607 - celljdbaisch@att.netWe only adopt to people in the St. Louis METRO area.

Story
I have a best friend Stublet. Maybe you would consider adopting us both!Dustin is big cat. He is very active and loves to run up and down the stairs and play with balls. He's not so much of a lover but more of a manly- like cat. He does like sitting on laps. If you want him to want him to go somewhere all you need to do is to put dry food in a bowl and shake it and he will follow you anywhere. He gets along with other cats and dogs.Please contact my foster mom Kate at 314-550-5523We only adopt to people in the St. Louis METRO area.
