Story
We care about him a lot, but we have realized our home is not the best environment for his needs. Hes a 3-year-old gray boy with a heart full of love and curiosity. From the moment you open the door, he is there to greet you, rub against your legs, and hop into your lap for pets. He is playful and clever, always finding ways to entertain himself (sometimes us!) when he is bored. He is social with other animals and has bonded well with rescue kittens, often being the first to play and interact with them. He loves food and can be persistent when its mealtime. With more space to roam and toys to engage with, hes playful, curious, and full of personality, a home that can give him more room to stretch both physically and mentally will make him the happiest. Affectionate, playful, and full of personality, he just needs a home with space to roam and explore, to be the affectionate, loving, and playful companion he truly is.

Story
We got Viper from the pound when she was a couple months old. We were told that she was fiesty but we still decided to take her home. She took quite a while to adjust to our home but once she was she was playful and would lay in our bed in the mornings waiting for us to wake up. We took in another kitten from outside and she didnt like her at first but now she seems to tolerate her. Over the last year the quality of our apartment has declined due to struggles with the landlord and she seems to have become depressed and has some kind of behavioral or health issue that causes her to pee in the bed. We tried more litter boxes, a phermonal wall plug, UTI medicine and nothing has worked. I don't think we have the means to take care of her should she have some kind of health issue, we couldn't afford to have her ruin another mattress (living in studio apt means we have no way of preventing her of getting to the bed). I'm hoping someone can take her to a new home so she can be happy again.

Story
JASMIN Look at those mesmerizing EMERALD EYES!!! WOW!!!! Our precious, petite 2 year old is one extremely gentle, quiet and loving kitty that will be shy at first. She likes to lay right next to you on the couch and get pets and attention. She makes a cool mohawk with the fur on her back when getting loves. She likes to bump against your hand and basically anything that is distracting you from her. She is a couch buddy that is usually belly up. Jasmin gets along fabulously with other cats and is not aggressive by any means. She is so gentle with all of the foster kitties and actually teaches them how to socialize. Jasmin is NEGATIVE for FeLV and FIV so she can easily transition into a home with other docile/chill cats. She would prefer a kitty companion IF her human is not home a lot of the time. Jasmin came to foster care BULGING at the sides and EXTREMELY pregnant. This beautiful Torbie girl had 7... yes 7 kittens born on Good Friday 4/7/2023. She has been a truly AMAZING MOM. Luckily, this is her last litter as she is no longer wandering the streets. All Jasmin wants (and definitely deserves) is a quiet home where she can get lots of 1-on-1 attention, great meals and tons of LOVE!!!! She would be the purr-fect companion for someone who works from home. Jasmin just wants a chance to relax in a soft cozy bed and human companionship is what this little lady needs!!
