Story
Hello there, I'm Zuko! I'm a sweet and gentle soul, always ready to give a friendly purr or a gentle nudge. My days are filled with quiet exploration and cozy naps, but my favorite moments are when I get to share my affection with others. I've been told I have a knack for making people feel loved and at ease. I'm not just a cat, I'm a companion, a confidant, a friend. If you're looking for a loving, gentle, and friendly addition to your family, look no further. Adopt me and let's make beautiful memories together.

Meet Salem, a charismatic almost two-year-old Domestic Shorthair cat from Greenville, SC, whose sleek black coat and golden eyes make him look like a mini panther with a playful soul! Salem’s personality is as bold as his appearance and he's always ready to explore, whether it’s the great outdoors or the mysteries inside your home. Salem is neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on all his vaccines, making him ready to transition seamlessly into his next loving home! He’s litter-trained and has a sharp mind, often using his expressive chirps to keep up a running dialogue about his day. Whether he’s asking to go outside or simply wondering what’s for dinner, Salem never shies away from sharing his thoughts! He’s a champion bug-hunter who can turn your backyard into his personal safari zone, bouncing on insects with determination and flair. Indoors, Salem’s favorite pastimes include chasing lasers, pouncing on feathered string toys, and bird-watching from the window. And don’t be surprised if he tries to join you in the shower—he has an amusing habit of drinking water straight from your hands, adding a splash of humor to your morning routine! While Salem adores human companionship and loves to cuddle on his own terms, he prefers to be the star of the show and would thrive as the only pet in the household. His playful and rambunctious energy might be a bit much for other cats, so he’s looking for a family who can shower him with love and provide plenty of stimulation to keep his curious mind engaged. Salem’s independent streak means he’s not a fan of being picked up too often, but he’s always ready for affectionate snuggles when he decides it’s time to curl up with you. His ideal home will include a caregiver who appreciates his outgoing personality, enjoys interactive playtime, and can provide outdoor adventures or safe spaces for exploring. Could Salem be the spirited companion your home is missing? Reach out today to learn more about this lively boy and how you can welcome him into your family! (828) 545-4876 mlguzows@gmail.com

Story
Little Gomez came to us as a one pound kitten that had a condition known as Pectus Excavatum - the shelter contacted us because most of the time they are euthanized but thankfully they reached out to us as we knew we could fix this little guy. Because he only weighed a pound - we had to wait to surgically correct his condition but honestly you would have never known there was anything wrong with him - he was your typical happy and playful kitten. Once he was a little older and hit the 3 pound mark he was able to have the procedure to correct his condition at a specialist. He came through it great and has been medically cleared and should have no further issues and he is your normal - happy go lucky kitten that just wants to play and sometimes try and steal some human food. He is still on the small side but he is a totally amazing little guy that is hoping to find a family to call his own. He is fostered with 2 other cats and would love to have a companion to play with. He has not been around dogs but with proper introductions, he would adjust and be fine as long as the dog has been around cats before. Gomez has been combo tested (negative) - he is current on vaccines, dewormed, neutered and microchipped. His adoption fee is $75.00. If you are interested in adopting Gomez, please go to our website www.boxerbuttsandothermutts.org and fill out one of our adoption applications. We do require vet references and a home visit and all of our cats must be indoor cats only. Gomez is going to be a great addition to some very lucky family.

Story
Craigory is 2.5 yrs old and has been with us for over 2 years. Our house includes 2 minors and a dog. He's done well with children and has been amazing at tolerating the dog (but would thrive in a dog free home). He's a true cat, exhibiting many of the traits that they're known for. He enjoys sitting in your lap, but also prefers spending time alone in quiet spaces. He's comfortable being carried around. He's afraid of visitors but warms up over time and isn't aggressive. Likewise, he hasn't been aggressive with our children. I believe he'd get along fine with other cats. He has been amazing with his bathroom habits, I don't think there's ever been an occasion where he didn't go where he should've. Sadly, I lost my job and we're having to move out of state for work and are having a very difficult time securing a house that permits cats. Otherwise, he'd continue along with us.
