Cocoa is a 10 year old, very loving cat who likes to be snuggled! She would never scratch or bite and is very easy handle. She does well with other boy cats but can be territorial around other female cats. She is not picky over food, but needs to be limited on how much she eats. She likes to go out on the porch but is mainly an indoor cat.

Story
Hello, Rosy is 6 years old beautiful female cat, she loves her humans, very sweet and playful, she never been out. She’s very scared of outside she doesn’t even want to go in the backyard. She is scared of change, and sometimes territorial with other cats. She was my sister‘s cat and my sister had to move so I kept her for 1 years, but she still didn’t get along with my other cat,I’m not really good at training so maybe someone else isexperienced. Plus my kids have severe allergies. Since she doesn’t go out at all, it’s really affecting their health. my other cat is basically an outside cat He comes only to eat and to cuddle) But Rosie, she’s constantly inside the house. she likes to play and likes attention and love., I feel sad to give her away i took me a long time thinking about relocating her, but I think it’s time. It’s the best thing to do! I hope she can find a lovely home where she can get love and attention. Please if you need any other informations , contact me, thank you

Story
Jasper belonged to my oldest son, and when he had to leave, Jasper was left behind. Since then, he spends almost all of his time hiding in the bathroom behind the toilet. He is not aggressive at all, just extremely scared. He usually only comes out at night to eat, drink water, and use the litter box. Occasionally, Jasper will come up to my feet and allow me to pet him for a short moment, but if I sit down or stand up, he immediately runs away. He behaves the same way with my wife and my daughter. From time to time, he will sleep at the head of my daughter’s bed, but the moment my wife or I walk into the room, he jumps down and hides. From everything I see, Jasper is constantly anxious and does not feel safe or settled. I truly do not believe this is a good quality of life for him. He needs someone who can give him more time, patience, reassurance, and consistent atten
