Story
This is bubbles and I have had him since he was 4 weeks old I found him on the side of the road in Louisiana. He is now a year and a half years old he is pretty playful and loves to cuddle. He does have issues with his prey drive and cannot be around small animals and also he was in another home with a female cat and started to mark his territory and that is the only time that I have heard of him doing this but seems to be okay with dogs.

Story
Charlie is a curious, cuddly, cute cat and is up to date with vaccinations and no known health issues. The reason he is looking for a new home is because his current owners can no longer accommodate his needs after moving into a small apartment. In previous house, he was able to hunt mice outside & was able to cry at night without disturbing neighbors. Charlie has been known to get into fights with humans & animals. Ideally his next home he could roam outside to hunt such as barn or homestead, have accommodations for when he cries, and have experience with occasionally difficult behavior issues. He can get overstimulated by too much touching and takes his time to get to know people, but after he does, he will initiate cuddles & affection. He's very food motivated and takes meds in food no problem. He travels in a car well. TLDR: Behavior issues: crying at night, getting into fights outside Needs: outdoor hunting, more stimulation, cuddles, food, patience No children

Story
Meet Milo 🤍 I rescued Milo when he was just seven weeks old from a woman who was very ill with cancer and had to move into an RV. From the very beginning, he has been deeply loved and cared for, and he has been a wonderful indoor house cat for the past five years. Milo is a sweet, gentle boy who loves to nap, relax, and enjoy his meals. He does best in a calm home and would thrive with someone who can be around during the day to keep him company. He enjoys quiet companionship and being near his person. When Milo was about two years old, he broke his leg. I chose to give him the best care possible and spent over $5,000 on surgery to ensure he healed properly. He has since recovered and continues to live a happy, comfortable life. Due to my current living circumstances, I am heartbroken to have to rehome him. This decision was not made lightly, but it is the right thing for his well-being. My greatest hope is to find him a safe, loving home where he will continue to be cherished.

Story
This is Luna, a cuddly loud fur ball. She loves to sleep, eat, and play with anything round all day. She is often a loner but loves to be cuddled on her own terms. She is a very sweet cat once she becomes used to your presents. She was adopted as an 8 week old kitten and is a spunky one your old that has all the energy in the world, when she's not napping. I am hoping she goes to a slow paced home with someone to give her a lot of cuddles and treats.

Story
Meet Butters 🧈 Butters is a sweet, people loving kitty who enjoys being picked up and staying close to her favorite humans. She does best when she has her main people to bond with and will warm up deeply to them over time. While she may be a little unsure around new guests at first, she gains confidence once she feels safe and settled. She gets along well with other cats and would be happy in a multi-cat home. Butters loves lounging and relaxing, but dont let her calm side fool you shes also a curious kitten who enjoys exploring and playing when the mood strikes. If you’re looking for a gentle, affectionate companion who loves being part of the family, Butters could be the perfect fit. 🐾

Story
Rome is 3 years old. She is curious, smart, fearless, playful and loves laps to nap in. She was originally my daughter's cat but she needs access to the outdoors. She was not happy being confined to an apartment. Once we took her in, she was much more relaxed and happy being able to go outside- she uses the dog door - since we took her in back in April 2025. She gets along great with our 2 dogs, even rubbing against them or sleeping with them. The reason we are having to rehome her is she is not getting along with one of our other cats. We do have another cat who she does not bother at all - basically ignores her. She will need access to the outdoors in her new home. She is very picky foodwise and will only eat 1 brand of wet food, and 1 brand of dry.
