Story
Location: Pelion, SC (current foster home) or West Columbia, SC Name: Raven Age: 12 to 13 years but doesn’t act her age (acts younger) Breed: DSH Solid Black M/F: F Spayed/Neutered/Shots: UTD on rabies & fvrcp, spayed Good with dogs, cats, and/or kids: all of the above! Aggression or medical issues?: none that we are aware of Reason for rehoming?: from a hoarding situation Additional info/story (personality): Very friendly, sweet, and loves attention. Came from a really bad situation and amazingly warmed up to her new wonderful life extremely fast. Now she just needs her forever home to spend it the rest of her years with. She is definitely a kitty I expect to live to be another 5-10 years at least as she just doesn’t look or act her age in the slightest. *gross cage pic is from her original situation and solely included for you to see her features better since my camera quality is better than the foster’s camera* Message/comment if interested. Make sure if you message me to include the animal’s name since I have a lot of rescues I am trying to help rehome at the moment. Adoption application & contract required

Story
Location: West Columbia, SC Name: Blake Age: 1 year (DOB: 12/27/22) Breed: DSH - 15 lbs M/F: M Spayed/Neutered/Shots: UTD on rabies & fvrcp; neutered Good with dogs, cats, and/or kids: all of the above but normally isn’t a fan of being carrier around Reason for rehoming?: mom was rescued and gave birth a couple days later to this guy and his brother; they were adopted and returned due to no fault of their own Additional info/story (personality): Very sweet once adjusted but shy at first! They were raised inside from birth but adopted their mom’s personality who simply is just more introverted. He is fine with getting pets and scritches and he likes playing with toys and other cats, just not the biggest fan of being held, and takes a bit to come out of his shell. Message/email if interested. Make sure if you message me to include the animal’s name since I have a lot of rescues I am trying to help rehome at the moment.

Story
Location: Lexington, SC Name: Sophie Age: 11 weeks (DOB: 8/2/24) Breed: DSH - Tabico M/F: female Spayed/Neutered/Shots: has had first round of fvrcp and has been dewormed; getting 2nd round and dewormed again this friday (12 weeks) Good with dogs, cats, and/or kids: have been fine with everyone they’ve met so far Reason for rehoming?: last female of the colony finally trapped after she brought us a litter of kittens… this is the last of that litter Would you like rescue help?: no - already with one Additional info/story (personality): Is the most bold and adventurous out of her group. Fine being held and don’t hiss or claw or anything like that. Eating dry food but wet food is their weakness and what has got them extra loving with me now. Of course like playing with toys and climbing. Would most likely do better with other cats rather than by herself as she has been extra noisy/disruptive since her siblings left. Link to reel with her in it: https://www.facebook.com/reel/1566059423989746 Message/comment if interested. Make sure if you message me to include the animal’s name since I have a lot of rescues I am trying to help rehome at the moment. Adoption application & contract required to ensure good home and remaining vetting is completed (1 more rounds of fvrcp, rabies, and spay)

Story
Location: Lexington, SC Name: Buster Age: ~3 years Breed: DSH - Solid Orange - 11.5 lbs M/F: M Spayed/Neutered/Shots: UTD on rabies & FVRCP; neutered; microchipped Good with dogs, cats, and/or kids: good with others dogs; would not recommend him around smaller children; can dog test upon request Aggression or medical issues?: no known medical - watch video for “aggression” Reason for rehoming?: TNR cat that about broke my trap after he was caught. Got him fixed and put him in holding to recover a couple days only to discover he was friendly and trying to rub all over me. Figured I would give him a chance to find a home before releasing him back House/crate trained?: litter trained Additional info/story (personality): He is an ORANGE CAT. He meets the orange cat definition beginning to end. Sometimes when I walk up to him he will hiss at me then shove his hand in my head for me to pet him. Then when I stop petting him he will grab my hand with his paws/claws and pull me back in. Then sometimes mid pet he will nibble on me to tell me he is extra happy. He also actually uses the cat wheel when I direct him on it. Has 0 idea what to do with toys. Now granted, he is freshly neutered so there is still time for him to settle… but as of right now he definitely has a big demanding personality. But, he is also a huge big friendly love bug. Oh also, very talkative. Message/comment if interested. Make sure if you message me to include the animal’s name since I have a lot of rescues I am trying to help rehome at the moment. Adoption application & contract required to ensure good home. Link to video about him: https://www.facebook.com/100071493797144/videos/pcb.555762253483563/532813316138722
