Story
I am a sweet, loving boy but I had a really rough go of it outside, so I can be shy. I am making such great progress in my foster home, though! I really do love pets and getting my ears rubbed. I seem totally fine around other cats and I come out from under the bed when my foster mama calls me. I would love a quiet house and a family who will be patient while I settle in and get to feeling secure. I'm a super low maintenance guy! I never hiss or bite or scratch, but small, noisy children or dogs might scare me. I am fine with other kitties! I have the most gorgeous, deep-orange fur! Foster mama says its so thick and soft and I take very good care of it! ##2213426##

My name is Stephanie and I am asking for a moment of your time. I have been diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disorder and my health has rapidly declined. I have previously rescued two adorable cats, both siblings/closely bonded pair. Due to my health conditions I need to re-home them ASAP. Please meet Pumpkin and Spice, a delightful duo of 3-year-old orange tabby sisters in search of their fur-ever home. Pumpkin, the brave one, enjoys sunbathing and bird/lizard watching on the lanai; while Spice is a sweet and shy cuddle enthusiast, Both cats are spayed, up to date on vaccines, and ready to bring warmth and joy to a loving home. Though available for individual adoption, I would love to see these inseparable sisters stay together. It's heartbreaking that they were found abandoned, but your compassion can give them a second chance to find a loving family they truly deserve. If you're ready to open your heart and home and add some feline charm to your life, please reach out.

Story
socks is a very sweet cat. She is between five and six years old. I’ve had her several years. But now I have a daughter and granddaughter where my daughter has lost her job and they have to move in with me. And they are both very allergic to cats. Socks is sweet and lazy. She will sleep at the edge of your bed and she will sit at the edge of your chair. She does weigh 17 pounds and she is a big eater. she loves scratches and being brushed. She likes to have someone at home most of the time she doesn’t like to be left alone at home for days at a time. She comes with a CAT scan and a scratching post and a litter box and some food.

Story
This is Bubby and he is in need of a new, loving home. Sadly, I am just away from home way too much and can’t give him the attention he truly deserves. Bubby is approx 5 years old, vetted, microchipped, neutered and on flea/tick/heartworm preventative. Recently found out from his new vet that he is FIV+ so he will need to be the only cat in the home or in a home with another FIV + cat. He is a very sweet and loving boy and all he wants is be with his human. He loves treats, chin scratches and belly rubs, playing with a laser pointer, and watching the birds through the window on his cat tree. He comes with all supplies (food, litter and litter box, scratching post, toys, and his cat tree). His ideal home would be with someone that is home a lot as he wants to be the center of attention. I hope you will give this sweet boy a good home as he really deserves it. Thank you.
