Story
My cattitude isn’t something to focus on. I enjoy being around people but I also enjoy being left to do my own cat things. Important things like sleeping and looking out the window at birds. I’ll do best in a home that has a patient and understanding cat owner. Is that you?

Story
I may be cautious when we meet, but it’s only because I take my time getting to know people. Commitment can be hard, right? I'm independent and bold, but it can take a minute for that to show. I love affection and I'm pretty good at it once you break through my initial shyness. Throw in my talkative nature, and you'll love every bit of me!

Story
This is Screamo. Guess why he's named that? Yup, he loves to meow, talk, purr, chat and sing. He also loves to cuddle and play. He is nonviolent and has never bitten hissed or scratched. Just a very chill cat and a total lap-napper. He has his claws, so be sure to trim them weekly or he might get stuck on your clothes with all the hardcore biscuit making he does. Screamo is a neutered male, grey domestic shorthair, has all his vaccines up to date including rabies and FVRCP and is microchipped. Now the reason for his rehoming. Screamo has kitty IBD and is special needs. He will need a special allergen free diet or you risk him repainting your house brown. He will probably need to be diapered at some point in his future. He has chronic diarrhea. Screamo is FIV+, meaning he can't live with other cats unless they're vaccinated or also FIV+. If you have patience and love and know how to diaper a cat or have experience caring for incontinent/IBD cats yourself, he is available for adoption.

Story
Diamond is the mother to Munchkin, Xavier and Buddy. This is extremely hard for me to do, but I have to find her a good, since I am moving to Pennsylvania and my boyfriend will not let me take them with us. I am pretty sure that the travel would be extremely hard on them, as just taking them to the vet stresses them out severely. Diamond is a very sweet cat and would enjoy more interaction with people and playtime. Due to my living conditions none of my babies are getting what they so deserve. Please help me as I do not want to put them in a shelter.
