Story
This pretty girl is Chavelle and she is still available for adoption. From her foster: It has been so fun having Chavelle at our house. She had a bit of an attitude until we figured out that her tummy cannot handle chicken. Since making a switch in her food she has been a loving, slightly skid-ish, kitten that loves to be close to you while not being in your lap. She is VERY food motivated and loves soft treats. She’s learning to understand our dogs and has started forming a friendship with our Rottweiler, so I think she would do fine in a house with other animals. This fluffy, loving girl would be the best companion, and deserves to find an amazing forever home!" Apply today at audrainhumanesociety.org

Story
Georgia was a skinny “not-my-cat,” giving everything she had to nursing and caring for her kittens.  She has been a great mamma, but now it’s time for her to get all the love!  Georgia is shy, but when she opens up she is a sweetheart!  She loves human pets and playing with her kitten. She has the softest meow, and a very unique face.  With a little patience and a lot of love, Georgia will make some lucky family a loving pet.

Story
Hello everyone. My name is Phoebe and I am a just around 2 months old. I lost my way and was wandering a highway, starving and looking for something to eat. I wasn't feeling well but a nice lady took me in and called Pet Pals. My foster mom has been looking after me and I feel much better now. I am learning how to be a housecat and it's so comfy. I love to sit with my foster mom and let her give me lots of loves and attention. If your interested in a pretty Calico girl like me, then get your application completed. I think I will find a home pretty fast since I am too cute to resist.

Story
Hi, I'm Elektra. I've been raised in a loving foster home with my brothers Blade and Gambit. They have both been gone for about a month now. I'm the one with no collar. Blade and I were both very scared, hissy, not handleable, and I took it one step further with swatting and growling. Gambit can't possibly be related to us because he is way too nice! I still have a lot of work to do but I have come a long way. I used to hide all the time, but I have started to come out more to play. I really like chasing wands and strings. I still don't like being touched but I will tolerate it when given squeezable treats. I am looking for a forever home that is willing to go the extra mile to teach me that humans are actually kind of nice to be around. A quiet home that is patient, kind, and understanding that I may take longer than other kittens to warm up. Come back for updates on my progress in my foster home. Update 10/25: I have warmed up more to pets and even can be heard purring at times. I have a really nice kitty tower that is my safe space. I am more accepting of scratches and love and have the cutest little squeak/meow. I can even be seen rolling around and showing my tummy. Occasionally, I will come out for scratches and even sat on my foster mom's lap last week. I am still pretty nervous around strangers. Slowly but surely making progress.

Story
Hello, I'm Theo! I'm a shy but affectionate cat looking for a friend who understands me. I've been a little stressed since arriving at the shelter (it can be a pretty scary place for a cat), so I've been a little slow to open up and show off my true personality-- however, I do enjoy wet food treats and gentle pets. I would probably prefer a household that is pretty quiet and doesn't have too much hustle and bustle. I did live with another cat previously (Luna), and may adjust to new feline friends after a slow introduction. My foster says "Theo is a very sweet and affectionate cat. Starting off, the first week or so, he was very shy and timid and hid under the bed. He would come up to me when I would show him his wet food, but wouldn't come out from under the bed. Gradually, Theo came out and started to explore the room. Theo is still shy around new people and typically comes out when I am in the room with the door shut. He loves to come visit me when I get home with a few meows and then jumps on my bed purring and wanting pets. Theo has been eating, and using his litter box, and he loves wet food, catnip, and certain toys."

Story
Hello, I'm Bastet! I came to CMHS recently after my family fell on hard times, and they wanted to make sure I was well taken care of. In my last home I lived with older children and another cat (Serket), and would likely adjust to others in a future home. I've been pretty stressed at the shelter, so I haven't been able to show off much of my personality. I can be a little more wary of new people and places, but once I settle in, my previous family said I was a good boy. I think I would like a nice quiet place to call home, with plenty of hiding places and cat trees to climb.

Hi, I'm Hannah! I'm a chatty and snuggly gal, looking for someone to love. I lived a pretty rough life before coming to CMHS, so I can be a little wary of new people and situations-- but once we're friends, we'll be inseparable! I really love to be pet. I mean, REALLY love to be pet. I'll even get up to follow and bump my head into your hand if you stop before I've had enough! I would really love a nice quiet place to finally relax and curl up in a bed.

Ella was hiding in her carrier for 1 day but was very friendly after she realized she was safe in a less stressful setting: her appetite picked up and she was willing to play with string toys ( which needs to be kept in balance as she is a little chonky right now. ) She loves to be petted and is ok with being brushed . She likes to hang out or take over your lap, but she is OK with alone time (napping) too!
