Story
Looking for a new home for Eleanor ("Ellie"), our four-year-old cat. She's healthy, UTD on shots, spayed, indoor only and has her claws. She loves attention from familiar people and taking naps in laps. She is toy motivated and well-behaved - she doesn't counter surf or try to steal human food. She loves to talk and follow us around the house. A home where she can watch TV and snuggle with her people regularly would be best. She would do best in a quiet home either as an only pet or with an older dog with close to zero prey drive. Our reason for rehoming is that she is not cat-friendly. Ellie does not want to interact with any of her housemates except on her own terms, and our other cats are very outgoing and social. She will swat / hiss / hide, even during neutral interactions. We have tried rewarding good behavior, wearing everyone out via intense playtime, Feliway plug-ins, medication, separation and reintroduction - nothing helps.

Story
Meet Asterick: The Tortie with an Old Soul A charming tortie born in the fall of 2017! This sweet girl has an old soul and a heart full of love to share. Asterick does require daily medication for her asthma, but it doesn't slow her down one bit. At first, she may be a tad timid, but don't be fooled – she warms up quickly and is always ready to share her purrs of affection. Asterick is the ultimate lounging expert, perching high on her kitty tower to observe the world with a watchful eye. She's a social butterfly when it comes to other cats, so a home with a feline friend would be purr-fect for her. While wee humans might be a bit too energetic for Asterick, older kids will find in her a loving companion. Let's find Asterick the forever home she deserves, filled with love, relaxation, and kitty companionship.

Hello, lovely hearts! I'm Joy, your little sweetie and cutie, ready to bring joy into your life! I may be a bit on the quiet side, but my heart is bursting with love.

Story
Greetings, wonderful humans! I'm Bridgette, and I gracefully entered this world in the winter of 2017. I've spent my early years raising a beautiful family of five furry bundles, and now, it's my time to be somebody's cherished fur kid. My foster Mama tells me how proud she is when I rub against her feet, politely asking for a bit of affection. I've got the charm to melt hearts! Good news—I'm an expert at harmonizing with both cats and dogs. While I may be a tad timid initially, I'm hoping my new family will be patient, allowing me the time I need to blossom into the confident and loving feline I know I can be. All my medical needs are taken care of—I'm spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and have tested negative for both FELV and FIV. I'm ready to embark on a new chapter of love and companionship! Ready to make your home complete with a touch of elegance? Visit providingforpaws.org to submit an adoption application for me, Bridgette. Let's create a lifetime of purrs and snuggles together!

Story
Meet Kyla, a young and elegant tabby with an air of mystery. While we don't have her exact date of birth, we know she's a true beauty inside and out. Kyla's story began back in February 2020 when she made her way to the home of one of our volunteers. She's an independent lady who appreciates her space and enjoys the company of small, respectful dogs. When it comes to other cats, Kyla gets along just fine as long as they show her the same respect. For Kyla, a quiet and serene home is where she'll truly shine. While she adores the companionship of her fellow felines, a household with no small children would be the ideal fit for her. Rest assured, Kyla's vetting is complete, and she has tested negative for FIV/FELV, ensuring she's ready for her forever home. If Kyla sounds like the perfect addition to your household, don't hesitate to take the next step. Fill out an application at providingforpaws.org and open your heart to this graceful tabby.

Story
Oreo is a relaxed thick little gal. She prefers to laze around the sun more than get some exercise. She is still quite curious and affectionate when she wants to be. Just gotta give her time. She loves her wet food and will make that clear to you. Oreo is cautious in her explorations. I got Oreo from WAG animal rescue from PetSmart in Livonia on October 2021. She doesn’t have any health issues except for one broken tooth. I was unable to afford the operation. I am leaving for the Air Force in three weeks so I am trying to get these two cats taken care of. She is bonded with Survivor https://www.adoptapet.com/pet/43292064-dearborn-heights-michigan-cat

Survivor is definitely the adventurer of the two. He pushes for affection when he’s not taking his nap. All headbutts and meows all around. He welcomes you home very graciously. He’s also annoyingly curious in his explorations, getting where he’s not supposed to be. He wants to be near you always. They do well together. Survivor was about five years old when I picked him up from WAG animal rescue about three years ago in March of 2022. I am leaving for the Air Force in the first week of January so I can no longer take care of either cat He is bonded with Oreo https://www.adoptapet.com/pet/43292037-dearborn-heights-michigan-cat
