Story

Dolly was a 3rd cat in our home 2 years ago and she created some behavioral issues with another cat we had for a few years. The other cat stopped using the litter box. We were able to successfully rehome her 2 years ago but a few months ago she was found as a lost cat and we were still on the microchip. Unable to locate the rehomed owner, we decided to give it a try again. 2 years did not change the behavioral issues and the other cat has stopped using the litter box again. She appears to have had stress issues before she came to us because she has licked herself bald in a few spots. The vet said this was not a skin condition, likely stress from being at the shelter when she was a lost pet.

Story

I am currently caring for this sweet stray cat, Bella, (she's about 3-4 years old), whom we were in the process of bringing into our home. After her first vet visit, we learned she has FeLV. Since we already have 2 cats at home who could be at risk of exposure, we cannot keep her long-term. Despite her diagnosis, she is currently healthy, happy, and showing no signs of pain. She is sweet, playful, potty-trained, and well-mannered. The vet provided us with two options: euthanasia or finding her a home where she can be the only cat. It breaks my heart to think of losing her this way. I hope to find someone who is looking to adopt a FeLV-positive cat (preferably a single cat home or a home that has another postive kitty so they can have a friend!) There is no reason she should be routinely euthanized when she is healthy; with proper medical care, FeLV-positive cats can live happy, fulfilling lives.

Oreo like's to lounge and to play :) He has a favorite blanket to lie down on, which will come with him :) He likes to come up to you for affection! Love's dry cat food. He is ALWAYS curious about human food, especially when he see's you eating it lol Good cat, he is my first, but I can no longer keep him. I got Oreo from the local "pound" about almost 5 years ago when he was a kitten. He is NOT declawed though he is "fixed"

Story

I got Sugar from the Allen County Shelter in May and her most recent vet visit was in September. She was born in September of 2023 so she’s only a year old right now. She’s up to date on all shots and healthy. She’s got an amazing personality for a cat! She can be especially smart and loves to play fetch when she wants to. Her favorite activities are day naps, playing with lasers, and play fighting with our other cat. I’ve never had any issues with aggression from her, even with getting along with our other cat. Integrating the cats took about a week, but she was able to get comfortable with the other cat. She warmed up to me quickly and I’m sure she’ll be a great companion to whoever chooses to adopt her! She’s been an amazing part of our family but because of expecting pregnancy we’ve decided it’s best to rehome her. I’m open to any questions and I’m excited for her to go to a good home:)

Story

BONDED PAIR Found around 3-4 weeks of age, on October 1st. They are both reliably using the litter box. Although I absolutely adore them in every single way, I already have two animals and cannot afford the vet bills for these two. Their names are Labyrinth (1986) inspired. Ambrosius (Gold): He is extremely adventurous and vocal, he loves to climb and sit on shoulders. He is definitely feisty, giving attitude when he doesn’t get his way. It Is common for him to play until the second he falls asleep, usually in the position he was playing in. Hoggle (Blue): He is slightly less adventurous, but will find every excuse to fall asleep while o ppl cuddling. He is less vocal, but his purring makes up for it 1000x over. He is getting braver everyday, he is definitely the smarter of the two, but less confident than his smaller brother.

Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Autumn was caught in mid-November as a weaned kitten who was starting to roam with her litter mates and learn hunting from her mother. She is a shy but sweet tabby-calico or caliby (tabby in place of black) beauty who likes peeking out at you from behind doors and other obstacles that she feels secure behind, but is very curious and food-motivated. Despite her shyness, she likes to sit or sleep nearby, especially when she can watch the TV, and loves it when you talk to her. She likes to play with strings and feather toys, but tends to get pushed back by her more assertive siblings. She is very intelligent and well-behaved, and gets along well with older cats. Looking for someone who will give her plenty of attention and patience. Autumn's siblings: Frost Snow
