Story
Meet Mr. Chew, the ultimate snuggle-bunny you could ever wish for! Chewy is a 6-year-old laid-back and lovable tabby boy. With his big amber eyes and sweet personality, Chewy is the purrfect combination of laziness and playful charm. Don’t let his flabby belly fool you – he’s a champion when it comes to playing with toys (he loves his mousey's) and watching birdies. Chewy would be thrilled to curl up on the couch next to you for a cozy nap as you read a book or watch TV - he may even snore from time to time. If you’re looking for a cuddly companion with a super sweet disposition, Chewy is your guy! Adopt this sweet, lovable boy today and enjoy endless purrs and affection!

Story
This is my handsome boy Reginald! I adopted him from the shelter about a year ago, and he has been the most wonderful cat. Reginald is fun, goofy, and best yet, cuddly. He has lived with a wiener dog, so he is definitely good with dogs and has adopted some of their traits like playing fetch! He is great with people and handling as well as being comfortable during transportation. He is very good at not scratching furniture and is liter box trained as well. Reginald will find anywhere to curl up and take a nap (including your chest), but can perk up and play at anytime! He has been the epitome of health, and I plan on bringing him to the vet before adoption to handle his annual boosters. I have loved living with him, and he is loved by so so many. I just want him to have all of the love and life he deserves, and unfortunately I can’t give him that anymore. If you decide to adopt I promise he will exceed all of your expectations!!

We love Remy. She is a very sweet cat and loves to play. She has a funny personality and is a lot of fun. She is also a little hunter. We rarely ever see bugs in the house because of her. We have another cat and she has always gotten along with her and other cats. We have had a lot of people in and out of our home, and she always loves to come out and visit. I would love to keep Remy, but with where we are moving, we can't have her. Just want to find her a good home.

Story
Hello, I'm Franklin! I'm a kitten with a heart full of love and a head full of curiosity. I'm a little shy, but I'll be your best friend once I get to know you. I'm very gentle and quite the mellow kitten. I'm also energetic and playful when it's time for fun. I love exploring new corners and chasing after anything that moves. I'm a good listener, always ready to lend a sympathetic pur when you need it. I'm just a little guy in a big world, looking for my forever home. Adopting me means adding a little joy, a little laughter, and a lot of love into your life.

these two bonded sweethearts will be a perfect addition to any family. Hi, my name is Corey. I love attention more than food and I love exploring! I was born with my 2 sisters in the back yard of our foster Mom and Dad's house. We've been tamed and even have Kitty Spa every night. What is Kitty Spa you might ask? We get brushed and loved on every night and watch tv. It's fun!! My name is Tirzah, tear-zah, which means delightful. Mom says my song is, Girls just want to have fun”!!! I love playing and cuddling. I’m very curious.March 16, 2025, 6:07 pm

Story
Meet Tiny – The Sweet & Shy Toilet Paper Bandit! Tiny is a gentle little guy with a big heart. At just under 9 pounds and around 1 year old, he’s a petite kitty who’s already neutered, fully vaccinated, and ready for his forever home. Before arriving at his foster home, Tiny lived much of his early life outdoors without the care and comfort he deserved. Because of that, he’s still a bit shy and skittish in new environments and with new people. But with time, patience, and lots of love (and maybe some tasty lickable treats), he’ll slowly come out of his shell and begin to trust. Tiny is treat-motivated and warms up faster if you come bearing snacks. Once he feels safe, he reveals his playful side—he loves batting at ball track toys, chasing wand toys, and his absolute favorite pastime… unrolling toilet paper! He gets along well with other cats and even dogs once he has time to get to know them. Tiny is looking for a calm, patient family who can give him the time he needs to feel at home—and in return, he’ll bring a quiet charm and playful spirit to your life. Could you be the safe, loving home Tiny has been waiting for?May 6, 2025, 12:39 pm
