Story
Stormi is an independent but social and curious cat. He only likes pets on his terms, and does not like to be picked up, but he does like to be in the mix and be near people. He follows me around and cuddles sometimes at night. If he's in a good mood, he'll find a blanket nearby to make some biscuits and purr. Mostly he spends his days napping and really enjoys playtime in the afternoon. He'll jump and fly around for a feather wand. I have several stressful factors for him in my home that I cannot control. Recently he got a urinary blockage from crystals and had to be hospitalized for treatment. He is all good now, and is recovering very nicely, but the vet said stress can cause this problem to occur again. He is being stressed primarily by a roommate's dog chasing him. He should not be in a house with a dog, but for the first year of his life he lived with another cat and got along very well. I truly love him very much and am looking for a safe, calm home to bring him peace.

Story
Zappa and Spud are the perfect duo, both of the sweetest cats I have ever met. They love to cuddle, talk to you, and play. They both get along with all types of animals, and love nothing more than to lay on top of your chest or lap while you watch TV. Because of relocating across the country, it is with a very heavy heart that we rehome them to a loving family. They are house trained, microchipped, and vaccinations are up-to-date. Zappa is 1 year old and Spud just turned 2! I guarantee you will fall in love with these lovely little creatures.

Story
Milo (white and black) and Brixton (Gray, white and black) are bonded and MUST be adopted together. They were adopted in Spain but due to our growing family we are unable to provide them with the home life they deserve. Both cats are very friendly and have never scratched or bitten us. The only behavioral warning we have is that Brixton does have vet anxiety which can make him aggressive towards vet staff. We are looking for a home that is ready and willing to give them a loving home where they will receive the attention they deserve. Milo is 4 and Brixton is 3. Both are neutered.
