Story
Best Match: Seeking an adopter with moderate cat experience Will be most comfortable with an adult only home Bonded Pair Ok with other cats Both need an inhaler Needs to be indoor only Step aside, Batman and Robin. See you later, peanut butter and jelly. It’s time to meet the greatest duo ever – Thunder and Broccoli! These quirky tabby boys are ready to fill your home with love, cuddles, and entertaining antics. Thunder is a big boy with an even bigger personality. Friendly, affectionate, and confident, this lovebug craves attention and wants to be up close and personal with his people. He is a major lap cat, and his foster reports that he “sometimes sleeps in my arms with his paws wrapped around my neck and kisses my face.”  He eagerly approaches new people and makes a beeline for any item that catches his eye. He happily chats away with people and cats alike, and loves a good snooze in a sunny window. Thunder will let you know when he is done being pet or needs to play — so knowing to watch his body language is key. Broccoli (the all brown tabby) is Mr. Popularity, the rare cat who gets along with everybody. He is friendly with other cats and people – to Broccoli, people just seem like oversized cats he can befriend. He also loves to play. Wand toys and balls are his favorite and he is an avid hunter of bugs. With intense focus, he will stalk a stray fly around the house for hours. It may sound surprising, but Broccoli’s favorite time of day is when he takes his inhaler! The churu probably has something to do with that, and this makes his asthma incredibly easy to manage. Broccoli is described by his foster as “super soft and pure love.” Thunder entertains everyone with his funny, loud meow that sounds like a cartoon character, his snoring, and his many silly sleeping positions.These buddies share tons of snuggling,  grooming, and playtime. It doesn’t get better than that. Thunder and Broccoli would do best with an easygoing, cat-savvy adopter in an adults-only home with no children.They would be happy to have other cats around as well. Could you be the perfect match for this fun and funny duo? Thunder and Broccoli are neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and tested negative for FeLV. Thunder has tested positive for FIV.

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Best Match: Seeking an adopter with some experience Could join a calm/quiet home with older kids/teens Bonded pair May be okay with other cats Recommend indoor only John and Ted are brothers who make the perfect pair. They sport matching black and white coats, and share an incredibly sweet, strong bond. They eat from the same bowl, explore together, groom each other, and sleep in an adorable heap of black and white fur that makes it hard to tell how many cats you’re looking at. Ted is playful, curious, but may still be a bit shy around people. He loves to play solo with his favorite plastic spring, carrying it in his mouth and swatting it around the floor. He’s eager to explore and leads the way when the brothers go check out a new room or sniff the new package that has arrived. Even when Ted gets spooked and retreats to a favorite hiding place, he’ll be back in a few minutes. He also loves finding unexpected new places to hang out. You never know when you’ll spy him peering at you from inside a bag or over the rim of the bathtub. John is more outgoing and cuddly, and enjoys chasing and wrestling with his brother — but he’ll choose pets over play almost every time. This gentle boy  is helping his brother learn to be braver around people. While Ted will sometimes shy away from pets, when he sees his brother getting affection or curled up on someone’s lap, he feels more comfortable and wants to get in on the action. As their foster said, Ted is “a shy sweetie who loves affection, but needs a little help from his brother to be brave enough to get it.” John and Ted are vaccinated, microchipped, and tested for FeLV and FIV.

Story
Best Match: Seeking an adopter with extensive experience Could join a calm home with teens Prefers to be the only cat Needs daily medication to stay happy and healthy Needs to be indoor only Adoption fee sponsored! Are you ready to play? So is Sweets! Wands with feathers are must-haves, and if you have a tunnel, even better! Playtime is an important part of Sweets’ day. Like most cats, this beautiful tuxedo has a daily ritual she would like you to follow. It’s the feline version of Eat, Play, Love, followed by sleep in the evening. Sweets gets ready for breakfast when she hears her person getting up in the morning, which is served in a food puzzle to help slow down her dining experience. Meal over, it’s time for 5-10 minutes of play and maybe some brushing. Sweets is content to let you work at home because her day is for exploring and napping. Recently, she's taken up a new hobby: being carried around, resting against her foster's neck. Before bedtime, Sweets wants nothing more and nothing less than some couch time love and attention. You’ll never have to guess whether Sweets is feeling hungry or playful or just wants some me & you time because she is one talkative girl. She'll do best with someone who knows cat body language, and can anticipate when she's done with petting and playtime. She is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and tested negative for FeLV and FIV.

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Best Match: Seeking an adopter with moderate experience Could join a quiet home with teens Bonded Pair Prefers a home without dogs On a special diet to stay happy and healthy Needs to be indoor only The berry tabbies are the best of both worlds! Give Huck a good place to nap and regular petting sessions, and he’ll be your happy steadfast companion. Goji is a delight with boundless energy for play and adventure. Together, they couldn’t be any sweeter! Huckleberry and Goji's foster describes the pair as “a joy to watch” as they play, cuddle and groom each other.  You’ll have fun watching smart, super curious Goji explore! She’s also an avid bird watcher — whether it’s a cat video or in real life from a window ledge. She also never met a toy she didn’t like and keeps herself busy in the morning batting mice and carrying toys in her mouth as if they’re fresh kill. Goji also initiates wrestling and chases around the house with Huck, and will give a cute chirpy meow to get his attention (or yours). Although she’s still shy of being close to humans, when feeling safe and relaxed, Goji adores chin scratches. She’ll lean back and close her eyes, showing she’s blissfully happy. Huck is a mellow, calm boy that prefers lazing on the couch all day over playing with toys. At mealtime, he’ll swirl around your ankles chirping in anticipation of being fed. The pair eat an over the counter limited ingredient diet, because some proteins give Huck tummy troubles. While he loves treats, but even more, Huck loves affection even more, and will head-butt your hand to ask for love. Huck and Goji are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. Goji is positive for FIV, Huck is negative, both tested negative for FeLV.
