Story
I got her on Oct 31st,2025. She is 10 months. She is super loving. It is my other cat that does not get along with her. He won't stop attacking her. We have tried calming treats, powder, and plug-ins. We have had him for 3 years and we would rather her go to a home where she can be loved and not attacked everyday all day. We were told to give it a couple of months to see if he will start to adjust to her but we don't want her suffering and it hasn't gotten better.

Beautiful, sweet, playful cat. 9 months old. Litter trained, good with kids and other cats. I took in 2 cats before winter, the other cat pictured is his brother. I still have both cats. Would love for them to stay together if possible since they're so close, but I understand if that's not possible I need to move so looking for a good new home before March 2026.

Nina is a very sweet cat. She is 12 years old and loves attention. If you're sitting on the couch, she will jump up and come lay with you. She loves pets and belly rubs. Unfortunately we are moving in May and our new place doesn't allow for animals. We are looking for a responsible, caring individual or family that can take her in. She doesn't work well with other pets--we've tried. She gets anxious and territorial. If she will be the only pet, she will thrive and live a happy life with you.

This is Mochi! Nicknames are: MoMo, Monchi, or Moomin! Her birthday is: Nov 15, 2022, so she is 3! She’s super tiny and short :) We all say she a little autistic because of this ugly run she sometimes does and it’s a horrible imitation of a horse galloping when she has the zoomies! She LOVES being near you! But she also likes her space and will let you know when she wants it. She usually just sits near me to chill. She loves being carried and cuddled for a couple of minutes too! Again, she’ll let you know when she’s over it. She’s super soft and will follow you around. My niece annoys her but she loves being around people! She is an INSIDE CAT. Homegirl will not survive out there. When she sleeps, she loves to sleep on the bed or in her little spot on her cat tree! She will sleep either above your head hugging it or in your arms. She loves treats, and is super playful with a feather wand!! Litter box, Litter and food are included! Also tunnel and toys!! :)

Story
Estelle may be petite, but this resilient little sweetheart has a spirit that fills any room. Despite facing health challenges that would discourage many, she's emerged with an unshakable sweetness that captivates everyone she meets. Her gentle nature has won over both feline friends and humans alike, proving that the biggest hearts often come in the smallest packages. Estelle's journey has only made her more loving, and she's ready to share all that affection with a family who will cherish her as much as she's sure to cherish them. Estelle is FIV positive, but that should not affect her ability to live in a home with other cats as long as introductions are slow. To learn more about FIV, please read: https://vcahospitals.com/know-your-pet/feline-immunodeficiency-virus-infection All Stray to Spay cats & kittens are: Fully vaccinated, Spayed/neutered, Dewormed, Triple tested (FeLV, FIV, Heartworm). Adoption includes an application, vet/reference check & virtual home visit. All of our cats are fostered indoors in loving Omaha-area homes until they find their forever family!  This sweet girl is positive for FIV but that should not affect her ability to integrate into a family and live a full and healthy life.  ##2591525##

Story
We call him Lupa.. we have had him since he was a kitten. He has had urinary issues following an injury about 10 years ago, requiring special food. He needs to have two litter boxes. He is SO SWEET and cuddly and loving. He still has his claws, he is neutered. He will come with everything he needs and I really hope I can get updates/ pictures in his new home. We have 2 big dogs that he is fine with but he has grown up with them so I think he would do best as an only fur child. He is WONDERFUL with children though (we have a 4yo and 10mo old and he is great with both). We love him and this has been such a hard decision, but my husband's allergic reactions have been getting worse and worse unfortunately.
