Meet Victor, the dashing gray gentleman who has been patiently waiting for a forever family since September. With his striking yellow eyes and luxuriously thick coat, Victor is truly a sight for sore eyes. Victor came to FDHS as a shy kitten alongside his sister, who has sine found a forever home of her own. Over time, he has blossomed into a confident and social juvenile. He is the epitome of "a cat's cat" and gets along effortless with his feline roommates, making him a great addition to any multi-cat household. While Victor has enjoyed his stay at FDHS, he's more than ready to find a place to call his own. If you're looking for a handsome companion to keep you cozy on the cold days, apply for Victor today!**Neutered and up-to-date on vaccines & monthly prevention**

Hi! I'm Tia- a tiny black kitty with a HUGE personality! Don't let my petite size fool you; I'm bursting with confidence and charm, and I'm more than ready to take on this whole "adopted life" thing. My sister, Tamera, and I were found out on the streets, but we're both here now, gearing up for our next big adventure!I might be small, but I make up for it with my bold and sassy attitude. I love exploring and showing off my impressive purr motor. And don't you worry, I've got plenty of love to go around- I just need someone who's ready to keep up with my lively spirit. So, if you're looking for a spunky little sidekick with a heart of gold, I'm your girl. Let's do this, future human!**Spayed, FIV/FeLV negative, and up-to-date on vaccines & monthly prevention**

Story
Hey, I'm Tamera! Yep, the one with the "funky" eye and a heart full of love to give. My sister Tia and I were found out on the streets, but luckily, we landed here at FDHS, where they've been giving us all the TLC we could ask for. My eye's been treated, and I'm feeling better every day, so I'm ready to dazzle my future family with my charm. Here's the deal: I'm a professional lovebug. I'' curl up next to you, purr like a motor, and if you give me a good chin scratch, I might just be yours forever. I get along with pretty much everyone, so I'd fit right into almost any home. So, if you're looking for a sweet, quirky kitty with just a touch of sass, I think we might be meant to be. **Spayed, FIV/FeLV negative, and up-to-date on vaccines & monthly prevention**

Oh, hello there! My name is Anastasia, and I must say, I’ve been waiting for someone like you to come along. You see, I’m not just any ordinary calico cat—I’m a dreamer, a charmer, and, if I do say so myself, a little work of art. My coat is painted with the colors of a sunset, and my paws? Oh, my paws are adorned with extra toes! Yes, I’m a polydactyl, which means I have the cutest little mittens you’ve ever seen.I arrived at FDHS with my feline friend, who has already found their forever home. I’m so happy for them, but now it’s my turn, don’t you think? I spend my days imagining what my future might look like—curling up in a sunny window, chasing after fluttering toys, and best of all, having someone to adore me as much as I’ll adore them.People here tell me I have a “sparkling personality,” whatever that means. All I know is that I love meeting new friends and sharing my boundless charm. Perhaps I was a princess in a past life—or maybe I’m meant to be the queen of your heart.Could you be my daydream come true? Come meet me, and let’s find out. I’ll be the one with the super cute mittens, waiting just for you.**Spayed, FIV/FeLV negative, up-to-date on three year vaccines & monthly prevention**

Hello humans! I’m Blake—green-eyed goddess, professional napper, and reformed wallflower.When I first arrived at FDHS, I was not feeling my best. My fur was patchy, my confidence was low, and I wasn’t sure who I could trust. But with time, love, and some serious self-care, I’ve blossomed into the stunning tortie queen you see before you.These days, you’ll find me cozied up in a cat tower with a friend or tucked into the comfiest nap spot I can find. I’m sweet, gentle, and always up for a cuddle—especially if you appreciate a quiet, cozy vibe like I do.Looking for a lap warmer with a heart of gold (and a face to match)? I’m your girl. Fill out an adoption application for me. 💚🐾**Spayed,FIV/FeLV negative, and up-to-date on vaccines & monthly prevention**
