Story

Meet Thunder: a big tabby 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 sleeps on his foster at night. His foster reports that he “sometimes sleeps in my arms with his paws wrapped around my neck and kisses my face.” (You may be getting the sense that Thunder isn’t much for personal space or boundaries.) Thunder is a curious, intelligent cat who loves to explore and investigate. He eagerly approaches new people and makes a beeline for any item that catches his eye. He is intensely interested in the outside world and may try to sneak out every once in a while. He is also fascinated by laughing and crying, and will come in close to investigate and lick your face. Thunder is looking for an easygoing, cat-savvy adopter in an adults-only home with no children, as he does like to let you know when he is done being pet or needs to play- so knowing to watch body language is key. He would do best in a home with other cats. He loves to surprise, pounce, and wrestle his cat buddies, so you’ll want to make sure the resident cat(s) would enjoy that kind of play. Thunder happily eats the special diet that keeps his stomach happy, chats away with people and cats alike, and loves a good snooze in a sunny window. From his funny, loud meow that sounds like a cartoon character to his snoring and silly sleeping positions, Thunder’s big personality means that there will always be plenty of antics to keep you entertained. Could you be the perfect match for this fun and funny guy? Thunder is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and tested negative for FeLV and positive for FIV.

Story

Best Match: Seeking an adopter with some cat experience Could join a calm home with older kids and teens Currently needs daily medication and a special diet to stay happy and healthy May be ok with other cats Needs to be indoor only Goose is a cat who loves wand toys. Sometimes he’ll chase whatever is on the end of it, but mostly he prefers just to walk around with the wand in his mouth to show it off to his people. Goose loves following people around like a little shadow. He’ll greet you at the door. He loves to sleep with you at night, directly on you or right next to you. And he has even been known to give nose kisses to his favorite people. Goose can be shy around strangers and may take time to warm up to new people. Once he does, he has plenty of playful energy! This sweet boy can’t wait to play with you throughout the day. He can get a little excited while playing, so he’ll appreciate an adopter who knows how to tell when it’s time for him to do his cooldown exercises. Goose came to us with a number of medical conditions — some that have resolved completely, and others that we’re actively treating. He couldn't be a kinder gentleman about letting us help him, taking his daily medicine for asthma and eating his special diet for his skin and tummy troubles, which are currently well-managed thanks to this special care. His dermatology and internal medicine veterinarians are so pleased with his progress, and we know that by continuing this care in his new home, Goose will shower you with affection over the rest of his life. When the foster was asked what’s the one thing you should remember about Goose, she said, “He's the biggest lovebug around! This sweet, affectionate cat will quickly become your best friend, bringing lots of joy and cuddles to your home. His new family will be so lucky to have him!” Goose is FIV positive. He is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and tested negative for FeLV. If you are interested in setting up a meeting or have more questions, please complete our Adoption Inquiry form!

Good with kids, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Best Match: Seeking an adopter with some cat experience Best in an adult only home, savvy teens may be ok May prefer to be the only cat or slow introduction to a known cat friendly cat Recommend indoor only Gilman is a spirited orange dude with a love for adventure and play. He is active and will play alone or with you throughout the day. His favorite games? His foster family reports, “He is deeply invested in stalking wand toys inside boxes, under blankets, inside his cat tunnel, and room-to-room. He also loves chasing thrown treats or digging treats out of simple puzzle feeders or egg cartons. Random scrabbling noises during the day mean he's found a spring toy or feather ball to bat around, and he regularly bunny kicks his stuffed rat.” He’s an energetic boy who is also deeply curious about his human companions and enjoys supervising daily activities, whether it's cooking, cleaning, working from home, or simply lounging on the couch. He also loves window watching and sometimes the occasional zoomie. Gilman does require plenty of playtime to keep him entertained. He prefers affection and playtime on his own terms, so a human that knows these cues is ideal. He's a lively conversationalist, greeting you with a symphony of meows, chirps, croaks, and rumbles. And after a long day of play and exploration, Gilman seeks out human company, often falling asleep on a horizontal body part with a slight, adorable snore. His foster family quotes The Little Mermaid when describing Gilman: “He’s a redhead who likes to sing, ‘wants to be where the people are,’ and is looking for long-term human love.” Gilman is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and tested negative for FeLV and FIV.

Good with kids, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Best Match: Seeking an adopter with some cat experience Could join a calm home with older kids and teens Needs daily medication for hyperthyroidism Tifa wants two things in life: physical touch (on her terms, of course), and naps. A perfect day for this beautiful cat is breakfast, a nap with her paw on your foot, maybe some playtime with a dangly toy, another nap (but this time with her paw resting on another part of your body), dinner, and some forehead kisses. She’s hyperthyroid but is easy to medicate; she’ll happily take her medication in a pill pocket twice a day at mealtimes. According to her foster parent, “she comes in mostly blob form - her favorite thing is to nap the day away, preferably next to your head or hands.” Ready for a life of companionship with an easygoing cat? Tifa might be the one for you. If you're interested in setting up a meeting with Tifa or have more questions, please complete our Adoption Inquiry form ! She is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and tested negative for FeLV and FIV. October 28, 2024, 1:40 pm

Good with kids, Good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Best Match: Seeking an adopter with some cat experience Could join a calm home with older kids and teens May be okay with other cats Needs to be indoor only Spirit is a sweet, gentle soul with the prettiest blue eyes. She’s a mellow cat who still enjoys a good play session. She particularly likes chasing after wand toys and sometimes will even stand up on her hind legs as she pursues it! When left to her own devices, she’s also content with solo play, like spending time with her scratching post or lounging in a cardboard scratch bed. Her foster notes that while she was initially shy, Spirit’s affectionate side has blossomed with time, and they see more and more of it each day. Spirit may not be a lap cat, but once you’ve earned her trust, she loves to cuddle up next to you and purr contentedly. She’ll even give you a gentle nudge to let you know when you need to be petting her. When first introduced to a new space, Spirit can be timid, and she still startles at sudden, loud noises. In her foster home, she seems interested in the resident cats and she may do well with other cats given the right introduction. Having a cat friend may help Spirit come out of her shell even more. Ideally, Spirit’s adopter will have experience working with more reserved cats and can patiently help her thrive in a new environment. She could do well in a home with older kids, particularly ones who lived with a cat before. One of Spirit’s favorite activities is to sit up high on a perch near a window and look out, keeping a close eye on the world outside. She takes her job as the neighborhood watch very seriously! While she’s not particularly food-motivated, it could be that her favorite foods and treats haven’t yet been discovered, which could be a fun activity for her adopter. There are so many things to try! Spirit is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and tested negative for FeLV and FIV.

Good with kids, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Meet Luci, a beautiful 2-year-old short-haired grey tabby with mesmerizing big blue eyes. She came to me after being found on the street and has spent the last six months being an amazing mother to her two kittens. Now that they’ve found their homes, it's her turn! She’s a curious sweetheart who loves pets and chasing toys on a string, and she’s been wonderfully well-behaved. She’s litter box trained, spayed, microchipped, and up to date on all her vaccinations. While she can be mildly skittish at times, she's surprisingly good with guests and doesn’t shy away from new people. Although she’s been an indoor cat since I started fostering her, I suspect she’d thrive as an indoor/outdoor cat in the right environment—my space just isn’t ideal for it. If you’re looking for a adorable, curious, and playful companion, this lovely lady could be the perfect fit! A small rehoming fee of $150 applies to help ensure she goes to a good home.
