Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Athena is a sweet, gentle, affectionate, playful cat. She loves to curl up on her foster mom's lap and will purr her heart out in contentment. When not snuggling, she'll play with kittenish abandon, stalking, chasing, and pouncing on her toys in a display guaranteed to bring laughter. But things aren't always so easy for Athena. Born to a feral mom living in a cat colony, Athena missed out on full socialization to people as a kitten. Because of this, she's shy with strangers, new things can be scary for her, and she has an easily triggered startle response. But she's also a wonderfully resilient cat who has demonstrated that she can trust and bond to people. She's blossomed into a loving feline companion in her foster home, and her foster mom believes that she can also thrive in a quiet, adult-only forever home. To keep her digestive system healthy, Athena requires a prescription diet, Hill's Biome, which she loves and does very well on. She is six years old, spayed, felv/fiv negative, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations.

Story
Gentle, sweet senior kitty Patty is looking for a loving home where she can spend her remaining time sitting on laps and getting lots of cuddles. She's an affectionate 15-year-old girl, who despite her age, still enjoys play sessions with her foster mom. Patty has early-stage chronic kidney disease, a common and treatable condition in older cats, that is well managed with prescription food, medication, and subcutaneous fluids, all of which she tolerates very well. Patty is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and FeLV/FIV negative.

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Mabel is a sweet, playful one-year-old kitty looking for someone to snuggle! This little cat has been through a lot in her young life. She came to us with a hole in the roof of her mouth, and it took three surgeries to successfully close it. But now she's healthy and ready to find her forever home. Mabel's favorite activities include being petted and playing, and when she's given the option of one or the other, she prefers the best of both worlds: batting her toys around, then running over to her foster mom for scratches, then racing back to her toys to play some more, and then doing it all over again. Her favorite toys include anything with a ball or a bell and squeaky mouses, and she's becoming more curious about wand toys. She also loves snacking on a yummy treat, kneading her paws on the closest available human, and being brushed. Mabel adores being with people and greets everyone with chirp-y meows and loud purrs, but when she's alone, she likes napping in her comically oversized dog bed (it'll go to her forever home with her!) and watching the world outside her window from her perch on the cat tree. She's also great at entertaining herself with her toys! Mabel hasn't directly interacted with cats or dogs in her foster home, but she seems very interested in the resident cat in her foster home, and with her easy-going personality, we think she'd do great with other kitties and dogs. Mabel is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and FeLV/FIV negative.

Story
Meet Trixie! This little cutie is the quintessential kitten. She is super playful-with humans and with other cats. Trixie loves to play with her little red mouse toy (which will come with her when she's adopted), plays hide and seek, and will definitely unroll the TP if given the chance. She is also very loving and will purr within seconds of being petted or picked up. The top of the cat tree is a favorite hangout. Trixie's foster parents say, "she is a delight to have-so energetic and such a sweetie. We feel that Trixie would do best in a home with another kitten or very young adult cat who is in need of high-spirited feline companionship. This adorable bundle of fun was found by a Good Samaritan and brought to our partner shelter. Upon finding that Trixie had a mild skin infection, shelter staff asked us to take her in. She is now healthy and ready to find her forever home! Trixie is 18 weeks old (as of mid-November 2024). She has tested negative for FIV and FeLV and has received age-appropriate vaccinations.
