Story
Rosie was adopted and then returned to us at no fault of her own, her adapter had severe allergies. Rosie is very shy and timid, and is not fond of men. She needs to be home and in a quiet and laid-back household with a single female, so she is comfortable and happy. This lovely girl is independent and does like to hang out on her own at times, but will come to you when she wants affection and attention. She will let you know when she’s had enough and is happy just to be around you. No other pets or children please.

Story
Dinah is very active and curious. Loves head scratches, will jump on you from any closest object to get attention. She was good with dogs at her previous foster home, and does seem curious about them at the adoption center. She is NOT good with other cats other than her sister Sassy. Even the scent of another feline sends her into major anxiety and she gets extremely aggressive at anything that moves around her. For this reason, we will not adopt her to a home with other cats, other than if adopted as a pair with sister Sassy. Dinah does not sit still she is always on the go to play and explore. She enjoys the young girl in her foster home, both to play and to snuggle with and sleep. *Watch around doors to the outside* She would be fine adopted on her own as as only pet as long as she gets lots of attention, playtime, and love.

Story
Wow what a sweetheart this one is! Marmalade is so adorably loving, but she will start out very timid and will need a couple days to get to know and trust her new owner/s. Once she does she is enjoys attention and affection, though she is also quite independent. She can be so playful once she’s comfortable. It is unclear at this time if she should be an only pet, as she is so very interested in other kitties but is VERY ROUGH, to the point most only kitties can not tolerate it. She is in no way aggressive but no other cats other than her brother who was already adopted or her mother, appreciate her well rehearsed wrestling moves. At this time, Marmalade is experiencing some urinary issues, diagnosed as cystitis, which requires prescription food and intermittent meds for flare ups. For this reason we think someone with previous cat experience will be best for little miss Marmalade. Her favorite pastime is bird and squirrel watching through screened-in windows; she very much loves the breeze in her face. Marmalade`s little loving coos will melt your heart. She has the `forever kitten` face and tiniest nose; there is no way not to fall in love with her!

Story
Figaro or `Figgy` as he`s affectionately called is such a sweet and good boy. Figgy is part of a pairs only adoption, along with his very closely bonded brother Burley. Fig likes to play and cuddle and be pet by his people. He also lovvvvves to snuggle and nap with his other half Burley. They compliment each other so nicely and are such wonderful fellas. They have purrrrfect litter box manners, adapt to new surroundings quite easily, and would be a joy in any household looking for a lovely pair. Not sure how they would be with other cats or dogs.

Story
Meet Zippy! He definitely earned his name as he was a little ball of energy as a kitten. As he’s aged a bit he has slowed down some and doesn’t bounce off the walls. He’s fun and playful and does still zip about, but he also now relaxes and hangs out with foster mama and papa when they watch tv. But note he is VERY independent and likes to be around his people but not necessarily right next to them. He’s not one to be held, just a petting here and there. He likes to play with the resident 3 yr old female cat. Zippy is fine with the large and the small resident dogs, but he doesn’t play much with them. Zippy will be a good playmate to a spunky female feline friend, given a proper and gradual introduction as is needed with kitties.

Story
Burly is a darling boy and quite fun, playful, and loving to his people. He likes to be pet and be around you. This handsome fella is part of a pairs only adoption with his very closely bonded brother, Figaro. They snuggle and nap together, and it is quite adorable. Burly is on a special urinary food, but even when he had his urinary infection and crystals, he used the box like a champ and never once went outside the box. Burly and Figaro simply need to be fed separately (put one in one room and one in another room at feeding time and they gobble up their food quickly), but it has been very easy to manage. These boys are quite adaptable and settle into new environments rather quickly. They will be a wonderful addition to a loving family. Not sure how they would be with other cats or dogs.

Story
Checkers is a little sweetheart who suffers from a little anxiety. We explored many things until we found what she needed. She flourished with some consistency, love, patience, and her meds. She is slow to warm up to their cats but with proper introduction and time she will quickly become a best friend. She loves to play with her foster siblings. Ita amazing what a good family, shelter, love and kindness will do for a anxious kitten. This girl is ready to find her forever home to flourish in. You would be so fortunate to have checkers in your life.

Denali is a sweet and loving cat! He loves other cats and got along with the poodle in his foster home. Denali does have a minor limp but it is more pronounced after a day of crazy playtime. His limp has never kept him from being an active kitten. He likes to play with feet, socks and shoelaces but always gentle play.

Story
Wobbles earned his name because he literally wobbles. Don’t let that fool you though because he is such an amazing, strong, independent, kitten. He has a condition called Cerebellar hypoplasia which causes him to be unsteady on his feet and wobble. He uses the litter box without issues and loves to be cuddled. Wobbles loves cats, dogs, kids, and adults. He is the perfect cat. He has some safety needs and He can fall easily down stairs so should be kept away from them and other areas he could fall off of. Other than that there are no restrictions for this little guy
