Story
Verona is truly a sweet cat. She loves to sneak-attack you, loves treats, and loves to sit in your lap. You won't be able to go to bed without her sleeping in between your legs. She would be best in a home with only adults and middle school aged children or older: no other animals, and no young children.

Story
This pretty girl would prefer to be the only cat in the house. She enjoys being pet when she climbs in your lap, is a fan of popcorn and catnip, and enjoys playing with toys (balls, mice). She needs to be the queen of her castle. Displays signs of fearful aggression. Adopted her from an owner who said that she was stressed due to having two loud teenagers at home. She had a brother, but was not bonded with him. Tried, unsuccessfully, to integrate her into my multi-cat home. She is currently in a separate room, alone, away from the other cats, and is content.

Story
Maybe is a sweet 3 y o. female. She would prefer to be in a quiet home where she can relax throughout the day. She will sit with you while you work, nap next to you during your favorite show, and sleep in your bed (most likely on top of you) all night. She is also a Chatty Kathy and will engage in a back and forth conversation. She enjoys having her nose rubbed, and playing with strings toys. She also enjoys playing hide and seek at night before bed- I hide and she finds me, and sometimes she will hide her head under a blanket or hide in her tunnel and jump out when you're looking for her! Maybe will be at her best with adults who just want to love her. She should be the only cat in the home.

Story
Moldy was a birthday gift and I adore him but unfortunately my dad/ schedule doesn't allow me to continue to keep him, he is playful, most of the time good with people, litter trained, and most importantly SUPER cuddly. His birthday is June 22nd and June 2026 he'll turn two. His only flaw is he always wants to lay on feet and his super playfulness but even then hes fine with small mouse toys and scratching posts! I'll give all of his current items (if needed) and also give more details about his routines and such to whoever chooses to adopt my playful boy.

Story
Meet Poppy 🌸 Poppy is a very sweet, affectionate girl who has been in our care for about six months after arriving as a stray. She originally lived as an outdoor kitty, but due to an injury that required the amputation of one of her legs, she now needs the safety and comfort of an indoor home. Despite everything she’s been through, Poppy is doing wonderfully and is healing beautifully from her surgery. She is an absolute cuddle bug—loving, gentle, and incredibly friendly. Poppy has a curious, adventurous spirit, but she’s also calm and relaxed, making her an easygoing and enjoyable companion. She’s very easy to handle and gets along great with other cats, dogs, and children. Poppy would thrive in a home where she can receive lots of love, snuggles, and indoor comfort as she continues her new chapter.
