Story
Isabella is a round black ball of sweetness. She is about 7 years old and was brought inside when she was a few weeks old as a kitten. She has been living inside since then and never been back out. She is a timid cat and would likely benefit from a more quiet household. She currently lives with several other cats and has no issues getting a long with any of them. She has never really been around dogs so I am unsure how she would be with them. I think if the dog is calm and not a high drive energetic energy type they will be fine. She may start off shy and hide for a bit before she gets used to her new surroundings but when she gets comfortable she will cuddle with you on a bed, on the couch and will want attention.

Story
I acquired Luna from as Pet Shelter 6 years ago, as a kitten. I have to relocate and cannot take her with me. It breaks my heart, because she’s been loyal and loving with me through all these years. Please help me find a caring and attentive home for her to go to. Luna is beautiful, protective, and somewhat assertive at times. She loves to be near her owner and likes attention. Although not very bonded, she’s peacefully coexisted with another cat in our home. The other cat was from another breed and mother. I’ve exposed her to contained outdoor spaces and she loves it! Patience might be required at the beginning, as she acclimates to her new owner and environment. Luna, is spayed, microchipped, healthy and up to date on all her shots. She eats both dry and wet food. I will miss her terribly.

Story
I acquired Celeste from as Pet Shelter 6 years ago, as a kitten. I have to relocate and cannot take her with me. It breaks my heart because I’ve fallen in love with her. Please help me find a caring and attentive home for her to go to. Celeste is beautiful and has such a laid back, sweet personality. To know her is to love her and to love her is all she needs. Well, that, and some dried food, water and a litter box. There was another cat in the house who was more dominant but, she was always graceful and patient about it. I've exposed her to contained outdoor spaces and she loves it! One of her many adorable habits is that she sometimes cups the water from her bowl in her hand and drinks it that way. Celeste is spayed, microchipped, healthy and up to date on all her shots. I will miss her terribly.

Story
Wallace, and peanut are brothers and have been with me since they were little tiny babies, I got them as foster kittens when they were less then a week old and bottle fed them and helped them grow. Wallace is super sweet with a bit of a sassy personality, peanut is a big boy and loves to lounge around, both of them are super playful and love to be pet. Rehoming them has not been an easy decision for me but I am relocating in January and just cannot bring them. I’m looking for a good home for them to go together they have always been best friends and separating them would really take a toll on them.

Story
Thea is a shy, mostly "blue" cat. She is about 7 years old and was found in between some walls of a office building when she was a few weeks old as a kitten. She has been living inside since then and never been back out. She is a timid, and shy cat and would likely benefit from a more quiet household. She currently lives with several other cats and has no issues getting along with any of them. She has never really been around dogs so I am unsure how she would be with them. I think if the dog is calm and not a high drive energetic energy type they will be fine. She may start off shy and hide for a bit before she gets used to her new surroundings but when she gets comfortable she will cuddle with you on the bed, on the couch and will want attention. She loves to give you chin rubs and will talk to you in her high squeaky voice. She might do pretty well with rehoming as she might end up exploring on her own.

Story
Moosey is mostly white, with a black mask and a black spot on her body. She is about 9 years old and was brought inside when she was a few weeks old as a kitten. She has been living inside since then and never been back out. She is a very loving cat who LOVES attention. She will grab your hand so that you give her pets, and sometimes will give love bites. She currently lives with several other cats and has no issues getting a long with any of them. She has been around dogs a little so I think she would be okay with them. I think that if the dog gets in her personal space looking to "play" she might "defend" herself. She will most likely be very open to a new space and I think she would adjust very quickly. She will cuddle with you on a bed, on the couch and will always want attention.
