Story
Meet this sweet girl! She’s a calm, gentle soul who loves being around people and is happiest when she’s the center of attention. While she’s usually pretty quiet, she has a goofy side that comes out in the most adorable ways, making you laugh when you least expect it. Whether she’s curled up beside you or giving you her best “pay attention to me” look, she’s all about love and companionship. She’d be the perfect match for someone looking for a mellow, affectionate friend with just a hint of quirky charm.

Story
I’m looking for a loving home for my 1-year-old cat as I’m sadly leaving the country and can’t take her with me. She is spayed, fully vaccinated, and well-trained. She has a sweet personality, loves cuddles, and enjoys attention. Gets along with other cats. She’s very well-behaved and will make a wonderful companion. Will let you wear clothes for winter.I’m hoping to find someone who can give her the love and care she deserves. If you’re interested and can provide a warm, loving home, please reach out. Serious inquiries only – I just want the best for her. I have her automatic feeder, water fountain and cat tower.

Story
Doug is a mouser, he can be sweet and he can also be very mean. Indoor/outdoor guy. He'd be great as a barn cat or similar. Probably not a good choice for homes with children. He is about 14 months. I rescued him from a carport in a mobile home park. He will scratch and bite without provocation. I love him anyway but I can't have an outdoor cat where I live and I'm not able to keep him in due to my own mobility issues. I hope someone can give him a safe home. He comes neutered, up to date vax and a carrier, lots of litter and food

Story
Big Butt is a large kitty with a bit of junk in the trunk. Big Butt loves to chat, loves other cats, and loves to eat. Big Butt has a big personality and loves to be the center of attention. He loves to dote on people and other cats. Big Butt has had several owners. His first owner loved him dearly, but was forced to re-home Big Butt (called Baby) due to a chronic health condition. Big Butt was adopted by his owner’s health care technician and lived happily with several kitty siblings. Tragically, Big Butt’s owner passed away in November 2022. He was taken in by a family member who also tragically passed away the following month in December 2022. Big Butt is seeking a home with a loving family and would love to be adopted with his kitty siblings.
