Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Porkie is a sweet and playful companion who loves cuddling, especially snuggling up on your lap or chest for a cozy nap. Porkie is a social guy who enjoys head scratches and will jump up on your lap to keep you company. At night, he loves to sleep nearby or curl up right on you. He has a soft spot for felt toys, laser lights, and his favorite shoelace with a toy attached, which he loves to toss in the air and bring back when you throw it. With his affectionate, confident, and occasionally independent nature, Porkie would do best in an adult-only home or with older children who can respect his space when needed. He'd be a wonderful fit for a single person, a young couple, or an older family looking for a calm but playful, loving companion.

Story
Meet bonded pair Soup & Stew! They are ready to add affection and love to your life, along with excited welcome mat scratches when you get home. Stew is the confident brother of the pair, unafraid to demand pets and eager to follow you around. He enjoys playing tag with his sister, Soup, chasing her about the house and wrestling. Occasionally he will cuddle with her, but don't tell anyone! Stew loves exploring every open door and cabinet but rest assured, he won't try to dash outside. He'll sleep near or on top of you when it's time to rest, and if you're hanging out on the couch, scoot over he's comin' in! Stew and Soup are a package deal and would thrive in a home with or without kids, as long as plenty of love and affection are available. Soup is the shy sister of the pair, okay to wait until Stew has gotten his pets in before coming up and asking for pets. She loves playing with her brother and truly doesn't understand why he doesn't cuddle more - it's wonderful! Her favorite game is chasing beams of light around the house, and of course, chasing her brother. She doesn't mind being picked up and loved either. She's content to let Stew take the lead in the house, following him when he's exploring cabinets. Soup and Stew are a package deal and would thrive in a home with or without kids, as long as plenty of love and affection are available.

Story
Hi! Someone gave me this black cat since they were moving away but now I can no longer take care of him for landlord reasonings and I have a busy schedule. I don’t know his name but I decide to name him Oreo. He’s about 7 months old. I only had him for about 2 weeks now but he’s such a cuddle bug. He loves to sleep(he sleeps in such silly ways) and play. He will start purring as soon as you touch him. He’s so sweet and silly. He’s shy at first but once he warms up he’ll be exploring everything.
