Story
Fry is 3 1/2 years old, and very affectionate. Sometimes he'll find a hiding spot if things get a little chaotic, or if new people come to visit. But after a while, he'll come back out & ask for some neck scratches. He has lived with a kid, a dog, and his sister (Leela) all his life, and is perfectly comfortable around all three (besides being a little skittish). We unfortunately just don't have the time anymore to spend with him the way we used to, and the way he deserves. He's always been indoor-only, and is in great health (up to date on shots, healthy weight).

Story
Leela is 3 1/2 years old, and a natural-born leader. When the house gets crazy, or when new people come to visit, she'll march right into the unknown to introduce herself & find out what's going on. She has lived with a kid, a dog, and her brother (Fry) all her life, and is perfectly comfortable around all three. We unfortunately just don't have the time anymore to spend with her the way we used to, and the way she deserves. She's always been indoor-only, and is in great health (up to date on shots, healthy weight).

I have had Lindy since she was born. We took her mom in when she was pregnant and she had 4 kittens. Lindy is pretty quiet. She does not meet many people so she would need time to adjust. She is very friendly with me, she prances up to me, so cute.

Story
Tommy was brought in as a stray 5 years ago and obviously had been in some battles. He is easy going and affectionate, he appreciates the indoor life and being cared for. He and Tanny are buds but not inseparable on Tommys part. I often find Tommy sleeping with one or two of the other cats in one cat bed.

Story
Goldie was brought inside as a 7 week old kitten with her mama and 2 brothers. He is friendly, wakes me up every morning, likes his belly rubbed, but does not see a lot of other people and takes a little time to acquaint. He does well on the food I give him but if he eats anything else his gums seem to swell a bit. He likes to be hugged but not picked up and likes to sleep under the cat bed or under the bed sheets.
