Story
Victoria recently lost her owner. He passed away about a month ago. Victoria is around 8-years- old. She is a loyal and sweet companion and loves to cuddle on your lap. She needs a home with people who know and love cats and have no other pets in the home. A couple or single person would be an ideal match. Victoria is mainly an indoor cat but enjoys occasional outdoor time.

Story
My mother in law adopted this cat, Freddy, when she was terminally ill. He brought her joy and comfort in the last year of her life. Unfortunately, since her passing we need to find Freddy a new home. He is mainly outdoor and is incredibly friendly - he often will roll over for belly scratches. He is a good cat who could use stability when it comes to a home. Thank you for your consideration.

Story
Tiger was my father's cat, but my Dad passed away recently and I can't take care of him. He is a very friendly, healthy cat; about 7 years old and housebroken. He likes to snuggle at night, but he is also very independent and he is used to being able to roam outside. He would be a great companion for a single person (probably a man). Unfortunately, he has a tendency to "play-bite" and scratch when he is done being petted. As far as I know, he has never seriously bitten or attacked anyone. Groomers were able to trim his nails and vet visits were not a problem. My Dad was able to tolerate this and focus on the good side of Tiger's personality, but he is probably not an appropriate pet for an elderly person, children, or someone who can't handle his unpredictable behavior. I sincerely hope someone will be able to give him a chance.

Story
Let me just say that Romes is the best and it kills me to let him go! I have never seen such a warm, emotional animal like my boy. He is playful, VERY loving and just wants you by his side all the time. He was a little kitten when I rescued him from an Orange County shelter. He is a 7 year old angel now. We NEED him to go to a loving home. Nothing less than a true animal lover will do. He will make anyone’s life better. He’ll be there to make you feel better when you are feeling down and he will be there to share in the good times.

Story
Hi my name is Midnight! I'll be three years old on August 31st. My current owners would describe me as playful, confident, and curious. I'm a little shy at first, but once you pull out the toys we'll be best friends! I'm a hunter-gather by nature. I love leaves and those little acorn thing. I've never been outside, but when no one is looking I reach my paw underneath the screen door and pull whatever I can inside. My owner was a little confused at how leaves kept getting inside until she saw me one day. I hope this gives you enough information to decide if your home will be a good fit for me. If not, best of wishes finding your next pet. P.S. I love treats too! With love, Midnight
