Story
Bootsy Boots! DOB @ 07.10.2025 He's very smart and has even learned to manipulate door handles to open doors! He is very obedient and well-behaved, loving petting and attention. He enjoys interactive games, especially with a laser pointer or a fishing rod toy. Bootsy can be picky about his meals; he prefers hard food, eggs, and unseasoned chicken (grilled, steamed, sautéed). He is very sociable and gets along easily with other cats and dogs (though proper introductions are always a must). ***Boots is neutered, dewormed, and has received his FVRCP & Rabies Vaccine. ***Once you submit an application, I will reach out by text/email to connect over a phone call, ask a few follow up questions, and coordinate a meetup.

Story
SOPHIE DOB @10.10.24 ***Sophie was originally picked up as part of a TNR program, but she quickly showed that she was far too sweet for outdoor life. She loves being petted and will happily soak up attention from her people. Sophie has a calm, relaxed personality and is truly one of those “easy” cats who fits right in. She is fully house-trained, low-maintenance, and enjoys a peaceful environment where she can lounge, be loved, and keep you company. Sophie would do great in a quiet home and would be an ideal companion for someone looking for a gentle, affectionate cat 🐾💖 ***Sophie is spayed, dewormed, and has received his FVRCP & Rabies Vaccine. ***Once you submit an application, I will reach out by text/email to connect over a phone call, ask a few follow up questions, and coordinate a meetup.

Story
Posting this with an extremely heavy heart as it is not something I ever expected to do. We are looking to rehome our 7 and 5 year-old cats together. We have two small children and another on the way and are not able to give the cats the love and attention they deserve. We also travel often and this has clearly been upsetting them. We recently went on a trip and though we had someone stopping by periodically to take care of them they unfortunately began acting out behaviorally by having accidents in the house. Since we have been back, they have stopped. They are great with kids, however they would do best in a home with older kids or no kids so that the owner can give them plenty of love and attention. They would also do best with someone who doesn’t do a large amount of traveling. I will be willing to keep them as long as necessary until we are able to find the perfect fit and will not just let them go to anyone. They’ll come with cat trees and beds, food, dishes, toys.

Story
We ended up adopting Zena from a friend who had taken in a stray which ended up being pregnant. We already had a small dog and cat which had both been adopted and get along great. We thought a new kitten would be fine. Zena was very timid and scared of everyone when we first brought her home of course, but eventually warmed up to me and the dog. Zena is sweet and likes to be pet, but not picked up. She follows me around for her good morning strokes. She likes to lay with my dog sometimes and the dog tolerates it. Our cat Kiki has never been okay with the new cat. There has always been lots of hissing and growling and some small fights. I tried getting the plug in pheromones and that did seem to help a bit. At one point in the first year I thought it may not work out because my original cat Kiki was puking from stress. Things seemed to have died down a bit, but now Zena has started to pee on our couch and I just don’t see things getting any better. She is still a bit of a scaredy cat.

Story
Meet Lewis, a handsome 2-year-old grey and white tabby cat looking for a quiet and loving forever home. He is a bit shy at first, but once he feels comfortable, he’s the sweetest companion you could ask for. His soft grey fur and white accents make him an irresistibly handsome kitty, and his gentle personality is sure to win you over. Lewis may take a little time to warm up, so he’s best suited for a calm household where he can relax at his own pace, preferably with no dogs or small children. He enjoys lounging in cozy spots and watching the birds and squirrels go by from his favorite perch. Though he’s not one to seek out attention right away, Lewis appreciates a gentle approach and will reward your patience with soft purrs and quiet companionship. Interested in meeting Lewis? Contact us today to learn more about this sweet boy and how you can give him the home he deserves!
