Story
Suzie is a mellow, meandering love sponge. Unlike most cats, she’ll roll on her back & like to have her tummy rubbed. She’s never been harshly treated. Suzie shows affection by walking back & forth flipping her tail to rub your leg. She loves to sip water from a drizzling faucet. She’s a bit overweight since with 10 cats, kibble’s ad lib. She uses the litter box. (It’s scooped clean daily.) Suzie was born to in a box on our back porch , 2018. At 6 weeks, she, siblings & mother were neutered, got shots & brought inside. She’s lived indoors & shouldn’t be let outside. She’s had 3-in-1 shots, but not rabies my cats are indoors-only & haven’t been exposed to other animals. I need a home for her is because at my age, I can’t keep up with everything. I plan to move to a senior facility. Thefee is refundable. I want to make sure that she is adopted by a person or family who will care for her and definitely not used in research

Story
Queenlet Marcie was one of five born on our back porch in a box with towels in March of 2018. A bouncy petite one, Marcie loves to be petted but does not like to be picked up or held. Would not be good with small children. While all cats will occasionally stretch, Marcie sometimes does it three or four times in a row when shes just walking. (I figure shes trying to get bigger.) She often lies on her back (but do not rub her belly). When she was a kitten, over & over she would run up to me, get some attention, then dart away as though she was overwhelmed. Now, she stays close and wanders just a little, much more slowly. Though she is the smallest of my cats, she holds her own when it is treat time. (I shake the Temptations container and scatter some on the kitchen floor.) She and Suzie have identical facial markings, down to a small black dot on her left nostril. Different mothers, same father? The $50 fee is partly refundable once I know shes in good, caring, safe hands.
