Story
Say hello to Cowvin! This quiet, sweet boy is estimated to be around 4 years old. With his thick, wooly fur that begs to be touched, you'll find pure delight in running your fingers through it! His charming cow-like markings and those adorable fluffy butt cheeks make him the epitome of cuteness. Cowvin was discovered abandoned in the remote woods, seemingly waiting by the roadside as if for a rescue taxi. He came right up to us like, "What took you so long?!" Now, after recovering from illness and starvation, he's neutered, litter box trained, vaccinated, FLV/FIV negative, dewormed, flea-free, and microchipped. Cowvin would do best as a solitary cat. He can be a bully to other cats and tends to pick fights with him, though it's generally just hissy-fits and minor squabbles. He does, however, adore friendly dogs! During initial meetings with prospective adopters, he will be a bit shy and will need a brief adjustment period in his new home. Give him the time and space to feel safe, and soon you'll witness his true purrsonality shine. He is an independent, quiet boy who loves pets but also enjoys his space. If you're looking for a low-key friend to share your home with but you would prefer a non-clingy boi, Cowvin is for you! ADOPTION FEE: $125 If you're captivated by this cutie and envision him as part of your family, please don't hesitate to reach out via email or text. No calls. Cowvin is eagerly waiting for a forever home where he can bask in love, care, and the joy of being your loyal companion. Take the next step and make this adorable cow-like feline a cherished member of your family. Contact us today!

Story
Bean Dip is a former feral kitten and is still quite shy. This sleek void is independent and doesn't require much human interaction. She will need an adopter who understands her fears and is willing to confine her to a crate for a minimum of several weeks to a month until she is adjusted. Bean Dip enjoys playing with other cats and entertains human hands cautiously. She will likely remain a low-key, quiet girl, so if you're looking for a cat who will simply be in your space to keep you company rather than on your lap, she is for you! It is possible that with a lot of one-on-one time, she could change her mind about people! If you're interested in this beautiful girl despite her fearful personality, please inquire or submit your application! She is spayed, microchipped, and negative for FLV/FIV. Bean Dip is fully vaccinated, flea-free, and dewormed. She would do best if adopted into a home with another friendly, welcoming cat to help her feel safe. ADOPTION FEE: $125 If you have any questions about Bean Dip or would like to receive a digital application, feel free to email or text. No calls. Join Bean Dip's journey to find her forever refuge.

Story
Say hello to 97! This big, strapping cat has striking eyes and a gentle meow. He loves head scratches and belly rubs! As a young guy, he was found abandoned behind a local shopping center. When I brought him into my rescue program, my husband asked, "What's that make? 97 cats?" Which is how 97 got his name. He is a mellow cat who adores attention. He is neutered, litter box trained, vaccinated, dewormed, flea-free, and microchipped. He is FLV/FIV negative. Once acquainted, he seems to do okay with feline friends after a proper introduction, though he has been known to pick a few fights. He could potentially do best as a solitary cat. He does, however, love friendly dogs! He has never been around children. During initial meetings with prospective adopters, he may be a bit shy and need a brief adjustment period in his new home. Give him the time and space to feel safe, and soon you'll witness his true personality shine. ADOPTION FEE: $125 If you're captivated by this cutie and envision him as part of your family, please don't hesitate to reach out via email or text (no calls, please). 97 is eagerly waiting for a forever home where he can bask in love, care, and the joy of being your loyal companion.

Story
Meet Terry: The Purrsonality Plus Package! Are you ready for a feline companion as mysterious as the night, with a dash of charm and a pinch of enigma? Terry is for you! He is approximately two years old, neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. Terry is FIV+. This just means his immune system is as unique as his purrsonality. Please don't let his diagnosis deter you! FIV-positive cats can live long, healthy lives! Terry has a mysterious past. We believe he's a survivor of suspected physical and mental abuse, and that has left him a bit like James Bond – a little shaken, not stirred. We're working on toning down his unpredictable moments, but hey, even Bond had his wild side. The Terry Experience: Terry is a happy, lovable, and . . . strange boy. He may be a few fries short of a Happy Meal, but we think he's still the best! Though it's not our usual recommendation, we are seeking a SAFE outdoor or indoor/outdoor home for Terry. For whatever reason, he exhibits non-fun biting behaviors when confined indoors. As an outdoor kitty, Terry is at peace and enjoys basking in the sun. He now only bites when he's very overstimulated, and it seems to be limited to your normal cat "love biting", and he's easily stopped with verbal scolding. E.g., the belly is a trap! He is used to being kenneled at night, and we are seeking a home that will provide a similar safety feature. Terry gets along well with other friendly cats after a proper introduction. He is not a super fan of dogs, but he is used to being around them and goats! Don't let Terry's mysterious vibe fool you; behind that sleek exterior is a cat ready to bring a touch of excitement and a whole lot of love into your life. Apply today for a front-row seat to the Terry show – it's the purrfect drama you've been waiting for! ADOPTION FEE: $125 If you have any questions about Terry or would like to receive a digital application, feel free to email or text. No calls.
