Story
My pet is a rescue cat, her name is Monkae (Monk-Aye) Monkae has a very bubbly and eccentric personality. Very affectionate and needy as well. She constantly follows me around the house and at any interval that you take a seat, rest, or crouch down. She will immediately demand pets or for you to play. When you come home from work she will come up to you and welcome you home with love and demands for pets! Aside from all of that, Monkae does well with other cats. But hasn't had much interaction with dogs. So I'm unaware how she may handle them. She is skittish at first when meeting new people. But once she bonds with you she'll be your best friend/needy pet for a lifetime!

Story
Shadow was found as a stray in Austin, Texas in 2014 and we suspect she was about 1yo at the time, making her about 11yo now. She made the move with us to Colorado Springs in 2019. She has been healthy the whole time and had her shots in TX prior to leaving. She has been with my mother for the last 3 years, but mom is moving to Georgia and can not take her. Shadow and dogs don't mix well (she hides mostly) and so we need to find her a forever home with someone who loves a cat in their lap :). Shadow loves her belly rubs. For the last few years she has been an indoor cat, but is capable of venturing outside. She is not an aggressive cat, although she definitely is independent at times. We would love for her to have space to roam around the house and attention throughout the day. She would be purrfect for a retired senior like herself. Preferred adoption within Colorado Springs, but will bring her to the right applicant. All current supplies and food shared too.

Story
Maya is a very loving kitty who needs a new home due to our child’s allergies. She has been around the grandparents dog and can be fiesty/playful but mostly keeps to herself when the dog is around. She is 99% indoors except for a few minutes to sunbathe once or twice a week. She has gone to the vet for her annual checkups every year since we got her and is a healthy kitty. She loves to be pet and played with.

Leo (Leonidas) is a wonderful, loving older gray tabby cat. He is a cuddle bug who loves to snuggle and greet you in the mornings. He has hypothyroidism but it's easily manageable. He has a lot of years left in him and will fit in with any family. He has been around other cats and dogs and children his whole life.

Story
This is Huey/Hugo, he is an ex feral who came inside our home during the recent snowstorm. He is an absolute gem of a kitten but my already 4 adult resident cats are planning to mutiny, if i don't find him his own furever home. He is absolutely fearless, loves treats and toys and is learning how to be a great cuddler. I would love to find him a place to call his own while he is still so young and impressionable. We took him to our vet and got him his first round of shots. He is healthy and ready to be adopted. Thank you!

Story
Pablo was adopted at 12 weeks in hopes of giving our older kitty some company. He was born 7/12/2023. He’s a lively little guy and loves to play and jump onto high surfaces or hide in spaces. He needs a scratching post and would benefit from a cat tower. He loves wet and dry food, and especially treats. He’s cuddly with most people, but does not get along with our other cat. He has been aggressive with her but it’s possible that’s because she’s not as young/playful with him. If introduced properly he may also like being around dogs and has not shown aggression towards them. He has done well with kids too. He really is a fun and loving guy but after trying for over a year we cannot seem to get him to love our older cat. If you have the time to play and room for him to run around, he’s the perfect guy for you.

Story
I adopted Eddie a year ago from another owner who was taking care of him in his garage. Eddie seemed like a nice cat when I met him at first. He was even friendly with my kids. When I found out that the owner of this cat was looking for a new owner, an owner that can bring him inside the house, I jumped at the chance because he seemed like a good cat. He would be the perfect cat for someone who does not have any kids. He is cuddly and very vocal. He will hiss or swipe at kids because they are unpredictable or he feels threatened. I have had him for a year and my kids do not play with him or pet him. I cannot keep him since I feel like he is a danger to my kids and my future child. But I do want a perfect home for him. He can be a good cat, he just needs a home that is right for him.
