*** For Information about Adopting or Meeting our Cats, 1) Click Here to Submit an Application 2) Be Approved 3) Make an Appointment *** Finn, Flower, Freya and Falafel were rescued by a good samaritan as older kittens. They were very nervous and she worked with them for months to get them to trust people. The transition to the shelter has been a little tough for them but they are already doing better. The kids are all spay/neutered, up to date on vaccinations and ready to go home IN PAIRS to a family that will understand their shyness and give them time to adapt. They are absolutely worth it!
