Emeralda is an absolutely delightful little companion. She has the shortest legs and the smallest body among her siblings, which adds to her charm. Her round face is quite endearing, and she certainly knows how to capture attention when she desires it. While she tends to be shy and reserved, she truly enjoys receiving love and expressing her affection. Despite her shyness, she exudes a lovely sense of confidence. I truly believe she would be a wonderful addition to any home!

Story
Butter was born along with 3 other siblings, in my daughter's bedroom on February 14 2021, after we took in his mama who had been a stray. We kept Butter and his brother Scotty. Butter is a very sweet, timid kind of cat who I've come to realize is not suited for a lot of noise and activity. Both of which our house is full of. He is easy to stress, and this causes litter box issues. He gets along with everyone and tolerates a lot, but he really just needs a quieter house.

Story
Tora is an 11 year old male cat with fiv i got him and his brother from the same litter from a friend when they were kittens. Lately the 2 have been fighting so it's time to separate them. He is a little chunky his vet has him on a wet food diet twice a day, he does still have his claws, he is great with kids my 10 month old can beat on him and he will lay there and take it until he trys to grab his ear or tail then he runs away. Very friendly loves his belly rubbed and is a big time food begger. I would love for him to find a new loving home and not be locked up the remainder of his life.
