FIV is not contagious to humans or dogs but can be transmitted to other cats thru deep bite wounds or deep scratches. I am loving when I want to be and other times, I can be a little aloof. I know that I am a DIVA!'  As with all our foster cat/kitten children, Tiffany has been altered, microchipped, has had her shots, and has been tested for FIV and feline leukemia. She is positive for FIV. Please e-mail Shelley at s_stelmach@yahoo.com for more information on this diva girl.March 7, 2024: THE ADOPTION FEE FOR DOGS/PUPPIES VARIES GIVEN AGE, BREED, ETC..

Story
Midnight is a shy and mysterious mini panther beauty. She loves to climb in high or hidden places, and lives for dinner time, treat time, second dinner time, catnip time, and string toy time! Midnight knows what she wants and has a distinct and unforgettable meow, which she will use to tell you all of her thoughts on the speed her food is being delivered (hint: not fast enough). Never fully growing to trust people after a difficult early life, Midnight has spent a lot of her life in the shelter and gets along great with other cats. It would warm our hearts to find Midnight her very own forever home to retire in, with a loving and patient human family who let her be her shy self.

Seriously, she’s got more digits than a surrealist masterpiece! 🎨🐾 Our unique tabby, who harmonizes well with her feline friends, is on a mission to charm her way into your heart and possibly onto your lap. Those extra toes aren't just for show; they're her secret weapon for toe-tally stealing your affection. Who needs a four-leaf clover when you can have a polydactyl tabby bringing good luck and endless cuddles into your life? Ready to add a touch of toe-rrific charm to your home? Adopt Sandy, the polydactyl wonder, and let the laughter and love begin! 🐾❤️ #PolyPurrfection #AdoptUniquePaws

Swipe right for Sunny, the feline heartbreaker who plays hard-to-get but melts like butter with the right scratches! This suave orange tabby, born to captivate, arrived at the shelter with his mom and two sisters, and he's been honing his elusive charm for years. Sunny may give you the cold shoulder at first, but unraveling his mysterious aura is part of the enchantment. Picture this: a handsome cat who raises his butt in the air when you hit the sweet spot on his lower back. It's the feline equivalent of a coy smile! Sunny’s perfect furrever home will include another feline friend. Don’t worry, if you don’t have one, we’ve got a couple to recommend (wink, wink). Sunny’s perfect human embraces patience, understands his laid-back charm, and appreciates the occasional need for a quiet sunlit nap—because this charming orange tabby deserves a forever home tailored to his relaxed feline style. Ready for a relationship that keeps you on your toes? Unleash your charm offensive and be the one to crack Sunny's code. Swipe right, and let the pursuit of love begin! #SunnyDaysAhead #AdoptALazyCat #SunnyLoveStory #CatCharm #SwipeRightForSunny

Story
Fisher is a disco party dressed up as a sweet black cat, and he’s looking for a fun human to keep up with him. If he isn’t running on the cat wheel, you may find him with all four paws in the air wiggling about in a pile of catnip, climbing, carefully watching the neighborhood from the window, or figuring out how to get treats. Most homes would work well for Fisher, and he would work especially well with other cats as he is a gentle and respectful boy who is just here to have a good time. He is a big, light-hearted goofball – if you’re a fun and loving human prepared to keep an endless supply of catnip in your home pantry (and possibly a cat-sized hamster wheel) Fisher wants to meet you!

COMING SOON!!!! Bella, Marbles, Riley, and Blaze are littermates (momma cat is Grace) and would be best to be adopted as a pair or trio. We feel they would be much happier and secure if a pair went to a forever home together.

Story
Hey I`m Mozzarella!I am a highly energetic, active cat with a lot of curiosity and few inhibitions. Because I tend to act out when I am bored, over stimulated, or frustrated, I must have an adult only home with experienced, cat-savvy adopters (preferably only one person) - if you have experience with my breed or with other high energy/high prey-drive cat breeds such as Bengals, Chausies, or Savannahs that would be a plus. I am not a good cat for people who want a snuggly, well-mannered cat. I do best when I am a solo act. If you are looking for a charming rogue of a cat and think I might be a good match, you can make an appointment to meet me by emailing jskinner@aawl.org.

Story
Sonja is a kitty I rescued, she has been inside with me since she was attacked by a dog in August '22. She is FIV+, which just means she needs to be indoors and well cared for. She is a sweet, smart, feisty girl, with a unique look. She loves being combed, playing with wand toys, horizontal scratchers are LIFE for her. She likes to sing the song of her people sometimes but I think it is because she is lonely, I have 3 resident cats and work long hours so I can’t be with her as much I she needs.
