Story
Luna is a 9 year old short hair. Unfortunately due to my own health issues I can no longer take care of her. Luna needs a very patient owner who does not have other pets or children. She is an affectionate cat who wants to be a part of everything you are doing. She has a love of blanket caves and laser pointers. Instead of spooning she prefers to lay ON her human and will even perch herself on your arm if you are using a laptop. The fee is for her pet supplies so she will feel at home. Full disclosure: She can be aggressive. She can get overstimulated which can turn her purrs into bites and swats which is why she needs an experienced owner. This is managed fairly successfully by an anti-anxiety medication which is given twice a day as a treat. Recently she started to occasionally pee next to her litter box instead of in it which the vet believes may be caused by the beginning of arthritis which she may need medication or supplements for. She just needs someone to give her a chance.

Story
Sprinkle, her mama, & her 4 other siblings were found in my dad's garage at the end of April. She was spayed on June 11th, but hasn't gotten her other shots due to lack of funds. Out of her siblings, Sprinkle is still very shy. But once she gets comfortable she is a ball of energy. Her favorite pasttimes is looking out windows, playing w/ her laser pointer & her purple poof ball (2nd pic), & snuggling while you read a bk.

Story
We adopted Gracie when she was 12 weeks old. She'd been found by a rescue organization on the streets. We bonded with her immediately, and within a couple of weeks she was getting along fine with our older cat. Gracie, who we have kept exclusively as an indoor cat, has been a terrific companion for the past two and half years - full of warmth and love and affection. Unfortunately, just over 3 months ago, she became aggressive toward our older cat. We have tried many ideas to curb the aggression but, sadly, nothing has been effective. She continues to be the same wonderful companion with us, her humans - but we are resigned to the idea that both cats cannot live in the same home indefinitely. It is for this reason that we would like Gracie to find a new home. Ideally, it would be a home that does not currently have any cats. Gracie is currently about 3 years and 4 months old, is in excellent health, and remains a playful, warm, loving, and affectionate companion!
