Story
Katie is a 13-14 year old spayed, dilute calico, low maintenance female cat who is looking for her forever home. She has lived with the same man and woman her entire life but he was recently moved to a nursing home after his wife died and she was not allowed to go with him. I have been fostering her for about 4 months now with the intentions to keep her but she is very distressed by my other two cats. She enjoys the company of my 10 month old baby, my husband, and is okay being near our small 9 pound dog too. All she really wants is a nice big window to curl up in and the occasional lap to snuggle up on. She is a very sweet old lady but gets overwhelmed very easily by the other cats in the house. Katie would do best in a home with no other cats, and preferably no active dogs or children. She is the kind of cat that just likes to relax in her armchair. Katie doesn't really enjoy playing with toys on her own, but will occasionally chase a string toy if you initiate play with her.

He was rescued with his siblings from outside. He is about 7 months old now. He is very playful and energetic. He loves being held and babied. He enjoys play fighting with other cats. He will talk your ear off if you let him. He is always happy to see his owner. He dreams of being an escape artist (watch your doors when he's around) and most importantly, he has so much love to give his new owner! He is already neutered and has all of his vaccines.

Story
Petunia and Phoebe are a bonded pair of sisters and must be adopted together. They are very loveable, but prefer to come to you when sitting down. Phoebe loves to bring presents to you at night. Tuna is very curious and loves to sniff you, especially your hair. They also love to sleep with you at bedtime. These girls are my babies and I would really love for them to have a loving and patient home. I also have a PetSnowy self cleaning litterbox that can go with them, as we will have no use for it because we are relocating to my parents where we cannot bring them with us.

Story
Mama was an outdoor stray that had a litter of kitten's under our neighbor's porch. After her kittens were weaned and it started to get cold, we brought her inside, but found she couldn't tolerate our other cats, though she got along just fine with the dog. She is extremely affectionate, climbing into our laps and onto our shoulders whenever she gets the chance, and would love to live somewhere she can get the attention she wants without having to be kept separate from the rest of the household.

Story
Sunny came to us as a stray kitten on our porch. He is very loving and sweet with adults and kids. He can be shy but once he warms up he's in your lap. Unfortunately, he does not get along with our cats. We consulted with our vet and tried several different options before deciding to rehome. I believe he would be happier as a single pet and really want that for him. He has been diagnosed with environmental allergies, he occasionally sneezes. For that, he takes zyrtec (over-the-counter allergy medication) as needed for sneezing. It is very easy to give him. I can provide veterinary medical records.

Story
Tori loves to snuggle people she has chosen to like. She is still playful at 9 years old, but loves to snooze. She is great around my two young children and has never bitten or scratched them, even when they sit on her. She has been around small and large dogs with no issues, as long as she has an escape area. We have been having issues lately related to us not having time to devote to her due to young children and our large golden doodle being in her space. She has been boycotting the litter box fairly recently due to these things. This has become a problem that we are unable to overcome as it is effecting the health of our children. We love her dearly and I know she would do great somewhere that is able to give her more attention and loving. She is full of character, loves sunbathing, and she has been a wonderful companion. Tori has all her shots, is spayed and declawed in the front.
