Adoption Fee: $70 Name: Cous Cous Age: Young Adult Color: Mostly white with patches of orange / black Personality: • Friendly: She loves interacting with people. • Social: She’s a social butterfly that enjoys being petted and brushed. She has a big heart and really loves to be affectionate. • Outgoing: Cous Cous is a very happy cat.

Bella is a grey and white cat. She is a little over weight due to stress. The other cats in the home bully her 24/7. She needs a break asap. She is loveable and tolerant. She challenges dogs and cowers with cats. She is healthy and up to date on her vaccines. She is spayed. Litter trained. She is a love bug and deserves an animal less home. Where she can thrive. I can’t stand to see her so much in distress.she is an indoor cat

Good with kids, Good with cats, House-trained,
Story
Geiger is a 12 week old (as of 10/24/24) domestic shorthair--her coat is almost completely black except for a thin line of white hair on her chest. She is one of six kittens born to a feral who had been trapped for TNR and has been handled and socialized since her birth. Geiger is very playful and friendly; she always wants to be involved in whatever her people are doing, and when she's tired, her favorite way to sleep is snuggled up baby-style in human arms. If you're looking for a friendly, high-energy kitten, she's a great choice--she loves to play, explore new places, climb, supervise litter scooping, and otherwise "help" humans get things done. Geiger is pretty bold, and while she has not yet been introduced to any dogs, will likely adapt well to a house with a cat-friendly dog; she is also a good candidate for harness training. She'll do well with older children who can learn "let me down" signals, but her determined playfulness might not work as well with children 7 or younger.

Story
Sid (short for Obsidian) is a 12 week old (as of 10/24/24) domestic shorthair--her coat is almost completely black except for a few white hairs on her chest and belly. She is one of six kittens born to a feral who had been trapped for TNR and has been handled and socialized since her birth. Sid can be a little shy, but when she feels comfortable she is playful and affectionate, and loves playing with wand toys and anything that can be sent skittering across the floor. She's not big on being picked up and cuddled, but loves floor-pets and when she's tired will climb into your lap of her own accord for a snuggle. Sid gets along well with her siblings and should do well with another cat or a calm dog; she would be all right with older children who will give her space and interact with her on her own terms.

Story
Rosemary is a 12 week old (as of 10/24/24) domestic shorthair with a "standard cat" mackerel tabby pattern coat. She is one of six kittens born to a feral who had been trapped for TNR and has been handled and socialized since her birth. Rosie *was* the runt of the litter, but has caught up with (and surpassed some of!) her siblings. She is friendly, inquisitive, playful, and affectionate, and loves to explore and climb and play with wand toys and with anything she can bat across the floor. When she's tired, Rosie is a cuddler and will snuggle down into your arms and purr herself to sleep. Though she has not been tested with dogs, she gets along well with her siblings and is not afraid of the larger cats in her foster home; her boldness makes it likely that she would adapt to a friendly dog. Rosie's explorative personality makes her a good candidate for harness training.
