Bagheera

American Shorthair

Female, Adult

Lakewood, CO

Size

Details

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Bagheera is a shy black cat (born 2016) who takes a while to warm up, but when she does, you'll always have a second shadow. She is very interested in observing from a distance and following people around the house. This last year, she's gotten braver and will ask for pets or snuggles. At night, she loves to hop on the couch or in bed with you for some quick pets before putting herself to bed. She has no problem being held but will give you a run for your money when it's time for flea medicine. Not food motivated or excited about the outdoors, but pretty self-sufficient with finding something to entertain herself. Very good about using new litter boxes, new kibble, and scratching posts instead of furniture. Does not fight dogs and is not a concern for scratching or biting children.

Story

Naomi is a beautiful 11-year-old cat who has recently experienced a difficult loss. Her sister, who she was very close to, passed away, and since then, Naomi has been feeling a bit down. While she shares her home with a dog, they haven’t quite bonded, and it has limited her ability to get the exercise, playtime, and attention she needs. Naomi thrives on affection and enjoys playful moments, but the presence of my dog prevents her from fully being herself. She would flourish in a quiet, dog-free home where she can be the center of attention, getting all the love and care she deserves. If you’re looking for a loving and gentle companion who will bring warmth and joy to your life, Naomi is ready to find her new forever home. Could you be the one to help Naomi heal and rediscover her happiness?

Baby Kitty is an adorable and loyal cat around 3 years old. She loves to cuddle during the days and judge you from atop her cat tower during the evenings. She does well with her litter box and keeps her distance from our dog, but has no aggressive behavior. We need to find her a good home as my wife is beginning to develop sensitivities to her hair. Hoping to find a loving home that can give Baby Kitty all the love and cuddles she deserves.

Story

I adopted Sophie when she was about 6-8 months old from the St. Louis animal shelter in 2018… she is about 6 years old. She is an indoor only cat. She’s since become the sweetest, most spoiled, loving, outgoing velcro cat I have ever met. She wants to be with you most hours of the day and loves to snuggle, get pets, beg for your food, and generally follow you around and be involved in whatever you are doing. She's a conversationalist and loves to go over her day with you. She can be a little shy around strangers at first but is generally a super outgoing kitty that absolutely loves people. She’s been my ultimate work from home buddy and it breaks my heart having to look for a new home for her, I am moving out of state in a few months and my new accommodations do not allow me to take her with me.

Story

I adopted Merlin in 2020 as a kitten from a rural Missouri shelter. He’s about 4 years old. He’s since become an incredibly spoiled, snuggly, loving and goofy boy. He is an indoor only cat. He will chase you down at least twice a day for dedicated pet-me-now sessions. If you settle in to sit on the couch he will appear from no where and promptly plop himself on your lap to snuggle. He loves to sneak into bed at night and will lay his head right next to mine. He also loves to play and gets zoomies at least once a day. I moved home to Colorado this last year and am moving out of state again in a few months. It breaks my heart to have to find him a new home but my future accommodations do not allow me to take him with me.

Story

Mr. Sherlock is great cat and hes in need of his next forever home. I adopted him from Quebec shelter when he was 1. Its been great 10 years but unfortunately we both have recently got medicals that have become too costly. I want the best for him, hes such a great and fun cat. Super smart, loves to talk and be affectionate. Loves to play his purr is quiet/felt. He doesnt hiss or ever get angry. He just loves cuddling up with you and taking naps. Hes afraid of storms and usually hides. Loud sounds like thunder make him nervous. Hes got a UTI condition. Ive taken care of it twice but he still needs the perm surgery that I cant afford. I feed him a special wet food diet because of this. But between the need for surgery, his food cost and my own medical needs I can no longer afford to give him the best. :/ Ill be moving in December and would like to find him a great new home that understands this. The ideal is hes a single cat home for his food issues unless you know what to do

Good with dogs, Not good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

My name is Fela, & as you can see I’m an incredibly fancy tuxedo cat with a paintbrush tail. My interests include exploring all open doors, lounging around (or on) my humans, pouncing on feather wands, running through cat tunnels, Greenies Dental chews, Salmon, climbing on things, & relaxing in a warm sunny window. Now what isn’t relaxing is living in a home with other cats, humans who dont understand boundaries, a ton of closed doors, and only one littler box because I deserve luxury, space, and respect. The humans have done their best to provide me all of this, but I recently lost my ample space, spare litterboxes, and have a bunch of other cats nearby, so I’m still losing my mind from stress. Sometimes, I can’t help but nip at people who don't respect my boundaries or poop next to the litterbox when it's too dirty. Because my humans do care for me so much, they want to try to home where I can enjoy a calm life with no other cats, well behaved dogs, and a fluent cat person.

Milo

American Shorthair

Male, Adult

Details

Good with kids, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Milo is a 5-yr-old, neutered, short hair with peaches and cream fur. He's very sweet, loves to cuddle. He has super soft fur and a melodic meow. Except when he is displeased and yowls like a haunted house. Milo pees on the bed and clothes of his human. He has been doing this for 5 years, since my niece adopted him as a kitten. She has tried many methods for training him away from this, but none has worked. She recently moved out of my house and didn't want Milo anymore. I said I'd try to find him a home, maybe as a barn cat? I think he needs to be outdoors, where no one cares where he pees. He can't stay with me. I also don't like his peeing habit, and my 2 cats have been bullying him relentlessly. He's a sweetie that needs a new family. If you live far from me, I'll bring him to you. And, if you are not happy, I'll take him back and try again.

Details

Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

They should be kept together, as they are very close, reliant and dependent on each other. They are 3 1/2 year old brothers (DOB 9/9/2020), all black except for Salem (the chonky one), who has a little white spot on his chest. They are fixed, micro-chipped and litter box trained. They are picky eaters but ONLY because they eat dry cat food and no expensive or canned stuff. They don't like people food (even bacon!) and only like a certain brand of treats that I've gotten them (can't remember the name right now). They are very leery of people, kids, cats and dogs, but I think they would be okay if they were around them more. They do like their peace and quiet, though. They have been indoors since birth, as we live in an area with a lot of wild animals and are next to a buy street. We do have to move out of our house before July 1st and will be, basically, homeless until we find a house, so they absolutely cannot stay with us.

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Wybie is the sweetest yet most playful cat Ive met. I adopted him in my home of two very calm cats being completely naive to the fact that black cats are notorious for being playful. I assumed he would chill a bit after he turned one, but he still has his adorable kitten deme or that I find charming but my older cats do not. I think Wybie would thrive in a younger house with no cats or another *very* playful male. I don’t want to deprive him of living a wonderful life where he can be his most rambunctious self. Wybie was taken from his mother very young, which turned him into a cuddly mamas boy. He loves snuggles and getting uncomfortably close to your face and ears. I will miss the crap out of this cat, I’m heartbroken that I’m not the perfect owner for him. Wybie is affectionate, vocal, extremely playful, energetic, and always hungry. I want Wybie in the best home possible so I’d love for you to come by and meet him in person so I can get a sense of who is adopting him. :)
