Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Oreo and Fury are a bonded pair with a gentle, quiet bond. Oreo came into our lives in May 2022 from a family friend and is calm, reserved, and sweet, taking time to warm up but offering loving companionship once he feels safe. He does best in a quiet, patient home and enjoys being nearby without needing constant attention. Fury was rescued in October 2022 from an abandoned garage and is a shy but playful and talkative black cat with limited vision due to glaucoma in one eye. Loud noises can startle her, but Oreo’s steady presence gives her comfort and confidence. Together, they are looking for a calm, loving home that understands shy pets and values patience and trust.

OJ is such a sweetheart and loves to lay right by your feet to protect you at nights. He is very food motivated and will wake you up for food! This orange lover will purr constantly when petting him. He’s about to turn 5 years old. His little meow is the cutest thing and he is always following you to see what you are up to.

Good with cats, Needs special attention, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Wednesday is an affectionate cat that loves sleeping under the covers and sitting with her person in the evening. She would do best with an owner who can be home and keep her company during the day. She has some support needs: she has food allergies that cause her to pick at her skin, and while she is house-trained, she will pee on fabric left on the floor if stressed. She's also vocal, and will complain if she isn't able to be in the same room as all the people if you're congregated, i.e. while eating, having guests over, etc. While she has been an indoor/outdoor cat in the past, for the last several years she has been only indoors, and therefore has not had her most recent feline leukemia shot.
