Hello, my name is Bo I am a sweet boy, I was born in June of this year. I am looking for my forever home I get along with other kitties and dogs, I am a good boy and use the litter box, and my foster mom feeds me both moist and dry food. I love to play with toys, and sometimes just like to run around the house. Am a little shy at first but once I get to know you, I am yours forever. I would need my new momma or daddy to get me my shots and get me fixed. I hope to meet you soon and be your new fur baby. I have been indoors only.

Hello, my name is Penny i am a sweet girl, who was born on 7/24. I am litter trained, am working on the scratch post, am getting the hang of it. I am a good eater; my foster mom feeds me dry and moist food. I love to play with toys, and run in tunnels, and play with my litter mates who are also posted on here as well. I get along with other kitties and doggies, my foster mom has 2 dogs and am fine with them. I hope I get to meet you soon to see if I am your forever kitty. I would need my shots and to be netured that is why my adoption fee is low. Please put in an application only if you are for sure interested in me, please. My foster mom says that the website has my current city wrong. I am located in Romulus Michigan, not Lincoln Park. I love to meet you to see if I can be your new best friend.

Story
Midnight was thrown out of my neighbors house 6 years ago in the deep freeze we had so I took him in. I found out later he was abused by the kids and it’s hard for him to trust people. He does have his own personality with attitude. He needs to be a one cat household

Story
Due to technical issues with some adoption sites, please email us directly at info@sheltertohome.com to inquire about adopting or to ask questions. Please include the animal's name in the email. What can I say I'm a beautiful sleek silky black Diva. I'm hoping to find a furever home with a kitten or cat buddy. I love all my foster friends. I even live among dogs. I'm looking for a special family. I am very shy. My foster mom keeps saying I've come a long way. I was a very frightened kitten when she took me in. It took me several months to warm up to her. I still don't like being picked up but I do like my scratches and lots of petting. I would need a room to hang out in until I got adjusted to my new digs. I love my treats and my laser toy. Hope to meet you soon!**All Shelter to Home animals are fully vetted per their age. We believe in pediatric spay and neuter.

Story
Due to technical issues with some adoption sites, please email us directly at info@sheltertohome.com to inquire about adopting or to ask questions. Please include the animal's name in the email. My name is John. I was born in October, 2021. I am a handsome gray dude. My foster mom's say I have come a long way. My sister and I take turns staying at each of our two-foster mom's homes. That is so we can get use to different surroundings. I used to be growly and hissy. I am still on the shy side. I would do best in a quiet home, a house without kids. I need someone who has patience in wanting me to interact. It might take a little time for me to feel comfortable and hang out with you. I get along with my foster kitties of all ages. I would love it if I could be adopted with my sister (Astrid). We understand each other. My sister (Astrid) and I have so much fun together. We love to bird watch and to catch flies. We like to play with everything, even with stuff we are not supposed to play with (lol). If you are in the kitchen or eating something while you are watching tv, we will meow at you. (That is telling you we want a bite to eat.) We are both easy to take care of.**All Shelter to Home animals are fully vetted per their age. We believe in pediatric spay and neuter.
