Story
Hi there, My name is Harry. I am a 8 year old guy who was brought in to the shelter sick and in need of help. Staff and the vet worked to help me feel my best, and now that I am feeling better, I am ready for my very own home. I would do fine in a home with children over the age of 5 years old that understand I am not big on being picked up. I can be a very sweet guy and I love treats and head scratches but I do have times that I prefer my space. I was found to be FIV positive, so I cannot live with other cats unless they are FIV+ as well. I would do just fine with calmer dogs in the home as well. I was also found to be Diabetic, so I will need to have continued vet care as I am currently receiving Insulin injections twice a day. I`m a champ for meds though! If you think you have the right home for me, please stop in and ask about me!

Story
Hey guys, remember me? I`m Phoebe! I was adopted a few months ago and shortly after, I was found outside. I don`t know what I did to deserve to be tossed out, but at least I`m safe again here at the shelter! So, let`s try this again. I`m a 5 year old girl who enjoys lap time and a nice snuggle with my people, although I prefer to come to you. I am not a big fan of being picked up. Overall I`m fairly laid back and just prefer to enjoy life. I do take daily medication for seizures that will need to be maintained. Thankfully I take my meds like a champ. I do enjoy the company of other calmer cats but CANNOT live with dogs. A calmer household would do me some good as my seizures seem to be triggered by stress. I do enjoy children as well, but older children in the home are preferred so that they understand my needs. If you think you have the right home for me and are willing to commit to me, please stop in and visit with me!

Story
Hey there! My name is Andromeda! The staff here sometimes call me the drama mama. I am a sassy lady who loves attention but also needs her alone time. I was surrendered to the shelter when my owner could no longer care for me. I have been here since March of 2022, that`s two whole years now looking for my forever home! I am now 5 years old. I love to look out the windows at the birds. I yell at the staff when I need attention or want some more food. Maybe even some of your food, please! I think everything is mine and will grab blankets close to me and pull them into my room. So make sure you are ready to share! I will not be able to live with other cats or dogs. Older children in the home would be best for the times I do get sassy. Complete an application to meet with me!

Hi there world! My name is Hershey! I am a pretty little lady at only 3 years old! I came into the shelter in 2022 with my babies. I was put into a foster program to care for my babies until they were ready to be on their own. We all came to the shelter and I watched my babies leave. I have been passed over for 2 whole years now, wishing for my forever home. I live in the communal area here and love every kitten that passes through like my own. The staff call my kitten friends `Hershey`s kisses.` The ideal home for me would be with other cats! I do best with friends to spend my time with. I enjoy spending most of my time on my recliner. My recliner is actually called an S-shaped cat scratcher that I love to lounge in! This is a MUST in my forever home! It is where I spend most of my time watching over the newest batch of Hershey`s kisses. I enjoy pets but enjoy being an independent woman even more! So pets will be on my terms.

EXPERIENCED ADOPTERS NEEDEDHi, I`m Suri. I`m a 7 year old girl who was returned to the shelter when my owner was no longer able to care for me and I am now in need of a new forever home. I`m a sweet girl, but I do need time to adjust and can be a bit opinionated. I prefer affection on my terms and would prefer a home without children as loud noises and fast movement can be stressful for me. I would do best in a low traffic home as an only pet. I am a big couch potato who just wants to hang around and be a cat. I would be a great roommate! I would enjoy someone to hang out with in short burts and then we can go on our ways to our own rooms for some alone time. Complete an application to meet me!

Hello! My name is Gracie! I am a sweet older lady at the age of 10! Do not let that deter you from meeting me, I still have a bright future ahead of me! I came back to the shelter because my owner passed away. I love cozy beds that I can snuggle into. Pets and attention? Come my way! I will meet your hand when you go to pet me to make sure you know I want the attention. I have not been tested with dogs or other cats at this time. I have also not had any interactions with children so that will be a case by case basis for now. Interested in meeting me? Complete an application and ask staff to meet with me today!
