Story
Max is a special little guy. He is very energetic. Max plays hard and sometimes gets overenthusiastic. He loves anything he can chase and the track ball. Max is a jumper and will need a cat tree. When Max is tired, he loves to cuddle but remember, he is a kitten. If cuddling is your thing you will have to wait till nighttime to cuddle. He also prefers to eat off paper plates both dry and wet. Max paws his water bowl before drinking so you may want a mat under it. Max NEEDS to be an only animal. Max's adopter will need to understand that Max is very high energy and overstimulated very easily.

Meet Gracie, the smartest feline with an orange crown. Her journey to the shelter is a tale of cunning and wit. Once the reigning queen of a local catnip empire, she was ousted by a gang of squirrels. Undeterred, she devised a brilliant plan, faking a catnip addiction to get admitted into the shelter. Her ruse worked! Now, she spends her days plotting her comeback, while also being the friendliest cat around. Gracie's intelligence and charm make her the perfect addition to any family. Adopt her and be a part of her incredible journey!

Story
Hello there, I'm Woody, the goofball feline. My life's been quite a laugh riot, especially how I ended up here. See, I mistook the shelter van for a pizza delivery vehicle. I mean, who wouldn't? I've always had a thing for pepperoni! So, I hopped in, expecting a cheesy feast, but alas, it was a one-way ticket to here. But hey, no regrets, right? I'm still on the lookout for my Buzz Lightyear, someone who enjoys the oddball humor and spontaneous pizza chases. Adopt me, and I promise a life filled with laughter, love, and endless entertainment!

Hello there, I'm Fred, your friendly neighborhood cat. I'm as brave as a dinosaur, just ask Wilma, my partner in crime. We ended up here at the shelter after a hilarious misadventure. We thought we'd discovered a portal to the Bedrock era, but it turned out to be the revolving door of a local mall. Security wasn't too thrilled, but hey, we gave the shoppers a good laugh! Now, why should you adopt me? I'm the perfect mix of courageous and cuddly, and I promise to bring laughter and love into your home. Plus, Wilma insists we're a package deal!

Hello, I'm Wilma, the shelter's resident explorer. You see, I was following Fred to what we thought was a portal back to the Bedrock era but turned out to be a mall!! Oh, Fred! Fred and I love to play and snuggle. We're a package deal, like spaghetti and meatballs. I promise we'll fill your life with laughter, love, and a few harmless shenanigans. So, why not adopt us and add a little fun to your life?

Story
Moving and need to find a good home for a loving girl. She is 8 years old, no health issues and has no experience with dogs. Front declawed. Up to date on shots. Just recently got 3 year rabies. Can provide vet records. She has been a sweet girl since we got her at 8 weeks old. She would love someone who she can lay by and get pet and loved on. Grew up with my kids but not been around small kids for years, so may be shy to younger kids.

Story
Hi! I'm Karen! Sure, sometimes I complain ... but I've got a big and funny personality when you get to know me! I love to watch the birdies and chipmunks outside the window. I'm so ready to move out of the shelter life and into my forever home. The people who take care of me are great, and I like them — and I like people in general — but I just don't like all these other kitties hanging around. It gets a little overwhelming! I would like to be a single kitty, in a quiet and loving home without younger kids or dogs. (An experienced cat owner would be best!) I'll be your best buddy! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Included in our adoption fee, all of our kitties are vaccinated, FELV / FIV tested, dewormed, microchipped, spayed / neutered, and checked out by a veterinarian.

Hi! I'm Bangs! I'm very stylish with my sidepart hairstyle, eh? Me and my brother were rescued from a home of neglect and filthy conditions. But I'm safe now and taken care of, and I'm loved. I enjoy sleeping and cuddling with my best friend at the shelter, Bubbles. Come and meet me! I am bonded with my best friend, Bubbles, and we do need to go home together. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Included in our adoption fee, all of our kitties are vaccinated, FELV / FIV tested, dewormed, microchipped, spayed / neutered, and checked out by a veterinarian.

Hi! I'm Bubbles! I came from a hoarding situation, and I'm now used to being around kitties all the time. During my time at the shelter, I’ve become best friends with Bangs.

Story
Hi! I'm Caroline! I came from a hoarding situation, and I'm used to being around kitties all the time. It's my comfort zone to have a friend with me, so I need to go home with another kitty — OR — to another kitty (if you already have a buddy for me at home). This will help my transition out of shelter life as I continue to work on trust and letting go of that difficult time in my life. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Included in our adoption fee, all of our kitties are vaccinated, FELV / FIV tested, dewormed, microchipped, spayed / neutered, and checked out by a veterinarian.
