Eva is a small, solid gray cat. She is shy and takes a while to adjust to a new environment, but loving and affectionate once she gets to know a person. She is a mellow kitty and enjoys spending time with people. She loves interactive toys, like the Cat Dancer. She needs someone patient who will give her time to settle into a new environment and feel comfortable. She would prefer to be an only cat and would do best in a quiet home, without young children.

Story
Pretty and petite, sweet little Indi is ready for her forever home. Sadly the only mom she's known is having a rough time & could no longer care for her. Indi is 2 years old, friendly with people and kids but supposedly does not get along with other animals. I think she might be ok with other calm ones, but not sure. She loves bells and jingle toys as well as lounging by the window in the sun . She is a picky eater when it comes to treats and food, she only likes chicken and her purina kitten chow. She doesn't like to be picked up & held, but does love to cuddle & be pet. Indi has been spayed, microchipped & vaccinated.

Story
Bitzy is full of fire. She's a little tomboy, always up for a game, flying through the air with reckless abandon!! She's never met a toy she didn't like and is inquisitive in everything that goes on around her. 10 month old Bitzy LOVES to play. She also loves her stuffed animals (will go to her new home with her stuffed Gumby that she's bonded with). Also loves fluffy little beds & video games. This girl is a little spitfire. She loves hanging out with her person & keeping you company, just doesn't appreciate being actually on you. No little kids for Bitzy & she's never been around dogs so I'd say no to them. Other cats are fine. She's been spayed, vaccinated, microchipped & tested negative for FIV/FeLV. Ready for her new home!

Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Honeybun & Oso are 3 year old very bonded brothers. They were adopted as little babies & all they knew is their mama who adored and doted on them. Sadly, they had to be returned to the rescue due to their mom having a terminal illness & no longer being able to care for them. They're so confused and heartbroken. They were born with a neurogical disorder which they outgrew, but Honeybun is still a little shakey walking sometimes when he first wakes up. In true brother fashion, Oso will position himself so Honeybun can lean on him until his footing is steady. These boys need a home together, never to be separated. Loving, sweet and cuddly, but will need some time to adjust to a new life. Because they come from a home which was quiet, just them & their mom, I want the same situation for them. I think they might be overwhelmed by kids, dogs or a busy household. They're neutered, microchipped, vaccinated and patiently waiting for their new mom or dad! Available for adoption through Kim's Kritters.

Story
We found Timmy about 6 months ago in front of our house and believed he was abandoned by previous owners because he did not seem like a stray at all. He seems to be a young g cat, probably around 4 years old. He’s so friendly and a little chatty. We decided to take him in but unfortunately one of our previous cats does not get along with him. He is uneutered at the moment and has been peeing outside the litter box due to stress from our other cat, but we think that would be fixed with a safe home. We have been looking to rehome him for a while with no luck. We want to find him a loving forever home. He is the sweetest little guy.
