Story
This guy needs a great home. He's got a severe upper respiratory and he didn't really want to pose for pics, but we have antibiotics and eye ointment now onboard. He's 4 mos old, tuxedo kitten, sweetest ever nuetered boy with all his shots. He was surrendered to me because he desperately needed medical attention and his owner lost everything in Milton. She reached out on a group forum yesterday and I couldn't let him suffer thru the night. Manatee Animal Hospital stabilized him last night and he went to my vet this morning. He's resting comfortably now and I've had him in a steam shower twice to help him breathe. I can't keep him. I have 2 dogs that want to eat him and a feral adopted cat that wants to kill him. He desperately needs an experienced foster or a furever home... asap or I'll have to take him to the humane society.I've been trying to get him to cat depot but they are closed today.

Story
Abby is an energetic and fun-loving cat! At three years old, she's just as adorable as she was as a kitten, and she still has plenty of curiosity and an uncanny ability to get into mischief. She's always looking for the next thing to do. So we feel Abby needs an experienced adopter who can keep her safe and healthy! We also feel she would do best in an adult-only household. Abby is very affectionate. She loves kisses, hugs, and sitting/snoozing on her foster mom's lap. Abby was rescued with her sister, Ariel, and both are currently being fostered in a home with two other cats. Abby tends to have a "take charge" personality, but she gets along with everyone. She would do very well as a companion for a cat (or cats) already in the adopter's home. The HPC adoption process involves a foster period (to ensure a good "fit") before the adoption is finalized. Since HPC visits the home during that time, potential adopters need to be in the Bradenton/Sarasota (Florida) area.

Story
Ariel is not only a beautiful cat, she's also unique! She has a small black "beard" and a short tail and looks very similar to a Japanese Bobtail, even though that breed isn't reflected in her DNA report. She's half American Domestic Cat with lower percentages of Norwegian Forest Cat, Highlander, Scottish Fold, and Siamese/Oriental Cat. At three years old, Ariel really isn't a kitten any more, but she's still energetic and curious. She loves to play, and "the zoomies" are part of her daily exercise routine. She has also become very affectionate and loves to cuddle in her foster mom's lap. Ariel was rescued with her sister, Abby, and both are currently being fostered in a home with two other cats. Ariel gets along with everyone. She would do very well as a companion for a cat (or cats) already in the adopter's home. The HPC adoption process involves a foster period (to ensure a good "fit") before the adoption is finalized.
