Story
We adopted Waylon at 5 months, he house trained easily, very intelligent kitty. Issues began with over grooming around the age of 1. He’s been seen by the vet now multiple times for this issue, as it’s gotten worse. We’ve tried just about everything from calming plug ins, changing diet, building a cat room and now medication. My wife and I are now both full time at university and don’t really have the time to troubleshoot anything else. Looking for someone willing and able to maybe give him the attention and continued care he might need. He would also come with a litter robot and all other cat related items you might need.

Story
Sweet and shy 8 year old female medium tuxedo cat. Does not like dogs. Can be around other cats and children. Sady does not do well in our environment with dogs and hides all the time. Sady needs a home she can roam freely in. We can provide some litter boxes, litter, and food that she has left over.

Story
She is a cuddler and a lap baby. She loves attention. I have had her and her sister since they were 3 months old. They have become a part of the family. Unfortunately due to my career as a truck driver, I don't have much time to spend with them and they deserve much more than being home alone. She is vaccinated, and spayed.

Story
Thomas was found on the side of a highway on August 2023. He was around a month old at the time. He is currently a year and a half old with his birthday being July 1st 2023. Unfortunately, we neutered him too late as he had begun to become territorial with our other older cat which caused them to become aggressive towards each other. We want to find a family that will give Thomas unconditional love to him and rehome him to a place where we can have space to roam and play. In general, Thomas is a loving and playful cat. He is very cooperative and will allow anyone touch and carry him. At first, he will be anxious and hide under furniture in the dark, but after a while he will warm up to the environment and became his usual, playful self. Unfortunately, he does have a leaky valve in his heart; however, that tear is so small it doesn’t affect him whatsoever and won’t for a long time. He doesn’t need any treatment.

Story
I adopted Finn through a local rescue 4 years ago. He is approximately 6 years old. He needs a loving and quiet home that has no other animals whatsoever, as he truly wants to be the only pet (since we moved, he has been fighting with our other cats and marking around the house, so he needs to be your only fur baby). He has so much love to give to his humans, and is always down for making biscuits and cuddling. He loves Squishmallows and string toys. He is so deeply loved, and we truly think he will be happiest in a home where he’s the only baby.
