Story
Queenie is a very sweet gal who lost her home due to a domestic abuse problem. Fortunately, Queenie was not abused herself! She is extremely affectionate, and a laid-back girl who loves a good comfortable place to sleep! She has never seen a dog, but seems to get along well with one or two other cats, although she is a bit bossy with cats because it is her goal in life to get the most attention! Queenie has healed from the ear infection she had when she arrived, which has disfigured her ear. She is basically healthy, and likes dry kibble and wet food. She hopes you will see the love in her eyes and not focus on her ear.

Story
I am being showcased by the Humane Society of Morrow County in an effort to find me a furever home. Despite being absolutely beautiful, I unfortunately hold the title of being the longest current resident here at the ARC since I’ve been with the HSofMC since August of 2023. I was found as a sick stray and brought in by a kind citizen. I am loving and affectionate and crave the attention of humans…but unfortunately, I don’t care much for other cats so the best setting for me would be a single cat household. I would make a great lap cat and bring great companionship to anyone after a long, hard day at the office. Here are my highlights: • I am adult spayed female estimated to have been born in 2021/2022 • I have been wormed, negative tested for FLV/FIV, vaccinated with the Felovax or FVRP vaccine and rabies vaccine. • I am microchipped. • I prefer to be in a single cat home. • I have not been dog tested. • I am very loving, relaxed and quiet. If you are interested in learning more about me, please email info@hsofmc.org. Adoption applications can be completed online at hsofmc.org and submitted electronically or you can obtain an application from the great folks here! A home visit is required to be approved for adoption. My caregivers want to be sure I’m going to the perfect home!!

Story
Good morning world!! I was a throw away, someone growing tired of me and tossing me out. Not sure why because I'm a pretty cool gal, full of love and always in search of a lap to lay on. I'm an older girl at about 10 years old. I remain hopeful someone will still find me worth the blessing of a loving home where I can spend my golden years lounging in the sun with no worries at all. I get along with other furry felines but I would probably do best in a home without small children as I don't like to be held. I have not been around doggos but willing to give it a try if needed. If you're looking for a friend to keep you company on those chilly nights we still seem to be having, give me a meet and greet and see if maybe we jive. My adoption fee is $50 and I am fully vaccinated and spayed. A home visit and application is required for my placement. Easy steps though for a loving heart like mine. Love Penny (email info@hsofmc.org if interested)

Story
I am being showcased by the Humane Society of Morrow County in an effort to find me a permanent home. When I was found with another kitten (Ellie), we were young, feral cats living in a local trailer park community. We would not have survived if someone hadn’t saved us and brought us to the HSofMC. I have made incredible strides when it comes to socializing. I still can be a little shy & reserved, but I love to play, run and hang with all the other adoptable kitties. I’m a beautiful tiger kitty with soulful, sweet eyes. I’m looking for my furever home where my humans can be patient with me so I can continue to blossom & become a forever, loyal companion. Here are my highlights: • I am an adult spayed female estimated to have been born in 2023 • I have been wormed, negative tested for FLV/FIV, vaccinated with the Felovax or FVRP vaccine and rabies vaccine. • I am microchipped. • I am good with other cats but have not been dog tested If you are interested in learning more about me, please email info@hsofmc.org.

Story
I am being showcased by the Humane Society of Morrow County in an effort to find me a permanent home. My siblings and I arrived as orphans, too young to be on our own and brought in by a kind citizen. I am one of the litters originally referred to as the ‘4 Tops’ that arrived in April 2024. After getting some much-appreciated love from our foster family I am now ready to take on life. I’m a little more ‘chill’ than my siblings but I’m affectionate and fun loving and - if I must say so myself – absolutely gorgeous. I can’t wait to find a furever family of my own. Here are my highlights: • I am a spayed female born in April of 2024. • I have been wormed, negative tested for FLV/FIV, vaccinated with the Felovax or FVRP vaccine and rabies vaccine. • I am microchipped • I am good with other cats but have not been dog tested. • I am an affectionate and fun. I also like to just chill & cuddle and take it all in. If you are interested in learning more about me, please email info@hsofmc.org. Adoption applications can be completed online at hsofmc.org and submitted electronically or you can obtain an application from the great folks here!

I am being showcased by the Humane Society of Morrow County in an effort to find me a permanent home. I arrived in April of 2024 as an orphan and had to be bottle fed until I was old enough to eat on my own. With a lot of time, love and patience I have blossomed into an incredibly gorgeous young lady. I love playing with other cats and interacting with humans. I have an outgoing personality and am extremely curious. Here are my highlights: • I am a spayed female born in April of 2024. • I have been wormed, negative tested for FLV/FIV, vaccinated with the Felovax or FVRP vaccine and rabies vaccine. • I am microchipped. • I am good with other cats but have not been dog tested. • I am very affectionate & cuddly If you are interested in learning more about me, please email info@hsofmc.org.
