Story
Chips started coming around a few months ago and has warmed up to us feeding him. He is super friendly and always welcomes us home after work. He has been good about keeping rodents out of the yard. He has been flea treated since coming around with oral and topical. We believe he may have been a house cat and was left behind after someone moved. He has slipped in the house a few times and has been very good with our two male cats. He has the tattoo on his belly showing hes fixed. Super playful and sweet, if not for a house cat he would be a great barn cat.

Story
We found this sweet cat at my husband's work. We have been feeding her for about 3 weeks, and decided to bring her home until we can find someone to adopt her. She is absolutely adorable and loves to be snuggled! She is shy, but can be petted and enjoys being around people! She does not liked to be picked up yet, too scared for that, but will sit on your lap, rubs against you and purrs for affection! She sleeps for most of the day. We have taken her to our Vet and given her a complete exam. We have set up an appointment to have her spayed as well and will still pay for this procedure for the person that would like to adopt her. This is her current medical history - physical exam by completed by vet, FVRCP Booster, Heartworm preventative, Strongid-T, Felv/FIV Combo test, Keyscreen GI parasite PRC Panel, Rabies Vaccination, Nextguard Combo dose, Feline Leukemia 3 week Booster

Jack is a sweet and loving boy. Unfortunately, despite our best efforts, our dogs continue to pick on him. Fortunately, he is not afraid of our dogs however, they continuously pick on him and we feel his quality of life would be significantly better in a home that did not have dogs that were so aggressive towards cats.

She is definitely the most lovable. Young cat ever. She was dropped off in our subdivision ( pregnant). She had 4 beautiful babies on Fatgers day and they have perfect livable homes now. My oldest cat 9 1/2 years is not happy. This beautiful young cat needs a truly loving home. The kitten adopters send me photos of her babies and I want someone for her that is wonderful and caring. She still loves to play with toys. Comes with toys, cat food . She has now been fixed and updated on all vaccines for 1 year. Papers included. Indoor only .

Story
Little Sailor born 5/15/24 is an affectionate boy. Loves toys you pull on a string, feathers, and especially crinkly toys. Potty-trained and will follow you like a duckling. Has a very lovely loud purr to let you know how happy he is too. I would love anyone who has the time to take care of this lovely boy as I have found I am allergic.

Story
Patch is a foster whose original owner cannot take him back. He is a senior cat about 11 years old and needs some dental work and updates on his vaccinations. He was born with one bad eye but is normal otherwise. He is super sweet and affectionate. He loves to cuddle on your lap. He does get along with other cats mostly, but it depends on the personality of the other cats as he is sweet and wants to be around other cats and people. He loves to play and gets the zoomies daily. He also loves the catio that foster mom has so he can sit and enjoy some fresh air and look at the birds etc. He is adept at using the magnetic cat door to the catio.

Story
Hi, my name is Romeo and my name suits me. I love to cuddle and sit on laps. My foster mom put me on a diet but I still need to lose a few pounds. I am 11 years old and may need some additional vetting. I may be older but I am still full of life and like to play and chase my brother. The zoomies up and down the stairs are fun. I am an inside-only kitty but enjoy my foster mom's catio to get a little fresh air and sunshine. I need to be adopted with my brother, Rascal, or I will cry loudly for him when I can't find him. My foster mom thinks I will be good with children since my former home had children but they couldn't keep me anymore since my mom got sick. I would love to come live with you with my brother.
