Story
This little guy has some amazingly beautiful markings to go along with his amazingly wonderful purrsonality. Silas (DOB: 04/21/2023) was a stray kitten who, thankfully, was rescued and brought to us. This little guy is uber-affectionate. Silas loves to play and especially snuggle and sleep with his two best friends, George and Miley. He enjoys being held and combed and even likes kisses! Silas will come running the moment his foster mom enters the room...he will jump up on the nearest piece of furniture to her, so he can put his paws on her shoulders, his nose in her face and talk and purr away. He just can't get enough love! We say he is "special needs" because he does have one bad habit. He likes to chomp on his foster mom's chin, and it hurts! She's trying to break him of that habit and is making slow and steady progress. DOB: 4/21/23

Story
Fergie is a gorgeous Tabby, who was very shy but has become gregarious and affectionate over time. Fergie and her four siblings entered the world on the sidewalk of an apartment complex, born to a very young, abandoned cat. They were brought to us with their mom, when the kittens were just one day old. The girls are very sweet, love to play, and are happy and healthy. They are vocal and purry and still have some kittenish behavior at six months old. Fergie must be adopted with one of her siblings (Cleopatra, Julia, Athena, or one of her many kitten friends), as they are all very bonded. It is our policy that kittens be adopted in pairs. DOB: 3/26/24

Story
Inky, along with his six siblings, were born to a "community cat." Their mom, Minx, a Lilac Point Siamese, was being fed with others but not spayed. When she turned up pregnant, the feeder waited until she was ready to deliver before he contacted us. Since Minx was clearly about to give birth, we set her up in our nursery. Sure enough, the very next day, she delivered seven babies. Their foster mom was present for the births, and it's a good thing! Minx had three breach babies on March 26th. Inky, is very affectionate and loving toward his siblings, friends and foster mom. He is easily distinguishable from his brothers, because he has a white spot on his chest and belly. Our kittens are adopted in pairs, as we strongly believe that two is better (for all involved) than one! DOB: 3/28/24

I get along with all cats I meet, and I would love to be adopted into a home with one of my siblings or another cat! I just love cats! Will you come and meet me?

Story
Nugget is a handsome orange tabby with the cutest nose and a striking coat. He loves to curl up in a cat cubby or a box and peek out at you. He can come off as shy at first but he's just misunderstood. He takes a little time to warm up and ya know, we can't blame him! He loves to play with dangly wand toys or a laser toy. He also gets along with well other cats and he and his cat friends often give each other loving head bonks. Nugget recently had two mini vacations from the shelter due to two hurricane's near the shelter. His foster reported that given some time, he did warm up to her and he enjoyed getting scratches and pets. He did sometimes hide behind the pillows on the bed, but after a minute, he'd pop back out and come over for more pets. He slso really enjoyed sitting on a window perch and soaking up the sunshine. Nugget has been waiting a while for his special someone and he would love a home! Come and meet him today!

Curly is a shy, but sweet, brown tabby. She can usually be found curled up in a cat cubby or a box with one of her cat friends. While she is shy, she enjoys gentle cheek and head pets. Curly recently had two mini vacations from the shelter due to back-to-back hurricanes near the shelter. Her hurricane foster reported back to us that while Curly was shy and did hide at first, after a day or two she was more relaxed and loved sitting in a sunny window or laying on the people bed. She let her foster mom give her pets too. Curly is one of our longer residents and we would love to find her a home with a patient human who will go slow with her. It's not required, but we think Curly would do best in a home with another cat she can cuddle with and who would give her some comfort and confidence. Interested in meeting Curly?? Apply today!

Meet Tasha! This little cutie pie came to us as a stray, wandering around the big world all by herself. It didn't take long for her to fit right in, and Tasha enjoys playing with cats of all sizes. She very much enjoys her alone time and keeps herself quite occupied with toys and watching bird and fish videos on YouTube. She loves to talk to her foster mom, scurries right over to her when she enters the room, and rubs against her ankles verbally requesting some loving! DOB: 10/1/21

Story
Tigger was a pregnant stray at an apartment complex of my daughter's friend. We took her to the Humane Society thinking they would let her have her babies and find them all a loving home. That was not the case, sadly. They called me when she was healed and instead of dropping her back off at the apartment complex, we took her home until I could find her a permanent loving home. She has been with us since May. She is two years old. She is extremely sweet and has a good relationship with the other cats. She gets a little spicey when she is hungry. (Being a street cat, I found that to be normal behavior and that behavior has reduced significantly.) She is now litter box trained as well. She loves attention and cuddles and could make someone a wonderful companion. She likes to chase her tail. She does shed, but she loves to be brushed and that could minimize the fur balls. She has been strickly indoors since she has been with me. I would like her to stay that way when she is adopted.
