Story
Duchess' Story: Duchess was dumped when her previous owners discovered she was pregnant. She lived on the streets for 3 years but somehow kept her sweet nature. She delivered that 1st litter two years ago and two more in 2024 (February & August). We were able to trap/rehab the February litter so they could be adopted, and the summer litter was born in-house. Our intent was to keep Duchess and give her a good home. She certainly deserves it. However, as a result of her time on the streets, she does not do well with dogs, and we have two. Duchess has a rear leg that has been broken at some point in her life and it has healed but was never properly set. She has a limp but has adjusted and does well. She is healthy, social and very loving. The last of her babies have been adopted and she just needs a hero with a home where she'll be loved and cared for. Won't you consider being her hero?

Story
Oscar is a really great cat, he is just young. He requires a lot of attention and playtime and I cannot provide that for him at this time. He gets along great with our 2 year old cat & 4 year old dog (he has been around them since he was about a month old). Oscar is a very vocal cat who loves food and cuddles. We have a 1 year old who does come around him and pets him sometimes, he’s cool with it as long as his hair and tail doesn’t get tugged on. Oscar needs to go to a really good, loving, attentive home that will give him the best life possible. He really deserves it.

Story
Kiki was adopted by us as a kitten in 2019. As our family has grown and we adopted a dog and had a baby she has not adjusted well and is spending most every day in her cat perch regardless of how much we try to coax her out. She does great with our other cat but definitely not with dogs.

Story
Mazey is a 6 year old (born late 2018) all black female cat. She lives with 2 dogs and four humans and is 100% indoors. She likes to snuggle on the laps in the evening and loves her hinney scratched. She is also a big fan of those wire brushes gently gliding over her back and head. She is not a fan of getting her nails clipped and can get over stimulated when loved on too much. We have a couple of members of our family that are allergic to cats with one of them being a new allergy. We are looking to find her a new home where she can lay in the sun during the day and get love at night.

Story
Hello! My name is Moxxie! I was actually found as a stray in the Denver metro area when I followed a nice lady home one day. Let me tell you a little bit about myself! I can be affectionate but also love my independence. I love sunning myself in the window. I would be just fine as the only cat in the house as I'm scared of the other cats here, even the kittens. I am litterbox trained. I'm ready to find my furever home!  ##2122072##

Story
It’s with heavy hearts that we’ve decided to rehome our sweet cat, Kaia. She’s a 7yo, American Shorthair with the most captivating personality. She’s the ultimate snuggler and knows how to steal the spotlight with her strong opinions—she’s definitely the boss, even over our 130-pound dog! Kaia does best in a calm home. She loves companionship and is most at peace when she has company. She has a newfound jealousy toward our 10yo daughter and has started marking our 10yo’s bed. We’ve tried everything recommended by our vet but haven’t been able to resolve the behavior. This decision hasn’t come easily, but we believe Kaia will bring so much joy and love to the right family. To help with her transition, we will include: • Her Tidy Cats pellet system litter box with bags of pellets • Her food and water bowls • A container of her food • Her cat bed • Her cat carrier We are asking for a small rehoming fee of $50, but are happy to negotiate to ensure she finds the perfect home.

Story
We adopted Nugget after the death of our 16 year old cat last year. Nugget was 10 weeks old when we adopted her from Dumb Friends League in August. We have taken on more than we can handle - emotionally our kids are still attached to our cat that passed away. While we were home for many weeks following adopting Nugget, we are away so much for the next year, we feel it is unfair for the kitten. She still loves to play and be around people.
