Story
Precious is a sweet, black cat about 12 years old. She is very friendly and follows you around hoping for kisses, pets, and headbutts. Being that she is the sweetest girl in the world, it’s impossible not to oblige!     Making her even cuter, Precious is missing teeth, so her tongue sticks out. It doesn’t affect her appetite or love for life. Her ear tips are a little curled over as a reminder of the hard outdoor life she once had. Now, she loves her inside life and all the attention she gets. You won’t regret having her in your life!    All cats/kittens are:   -spayed or neutered   -up to date on vaccines   -flea and parasite free    -micro-chipped  Kittens can be adopted by filling out an application at: www.catvando.org/adoption.  Please send an inquiry with any questions!

Story
Meet Katie, a warn and loving, black cat who will greet you first thing when you get home.  She is someone to tell you all about her day and all that you missed. She’ll be ready to jump into your lap and settle in for the night. She’s the perfect, remote "co-worker!” If you've said wanted any of these in your pet, it’s time to adopt Katie.   Katie is about 5 years old, rescued from a tree in Hillside. Although one can't be sure what got her up in the tree, we are indebted to the firefighter that scaled the tree to bring her to safety!  We are sure Katie chatted the whole way down from the top branches with her rescuer.  Katie is dog-friendly and would delight older kids with her playful antics. She is cat-selective in that she co-exists with cats, but she will tell you that  she most prefers people.  Katie will reward her family with unlimited happiness and lots of head-butts. Her black coat means she will go with all of your house decor!  And you'll never have an empty lap again.  Apply now to meet her and bring her home to your family.    All cats/kittens are:   -spayed or neutered   -up to date on vaccines   -flea and parasite free    -micro-chipped  Kittens can be adopted by filling out an application at: www.catvando.org/adoption.  Please send an inquiry with any questions!

Story
Sophie is a goofball and a cuddle-bug. She really enjoys playing with toys, sometimes for hours on end and will always make you laugh with the crazy tricks she ends up pulling off. We met Sophie as a stray kitten, only a few days old in a box in the backseat of a junkyard car. She was raised around her siblings until she was 8 weeks old, then she came to live with my wife, daughter and I. We have recently moved into our family's home that is also a home to two dogs that unfortunately do not understand why a new furry friend appeared on their territory. We're looking for a new, comfortable home for this sweet kitty, and look forward to talking to anyone who is interested. Sophie deserves a home that she can run around in and play.

Story
I’m looking to rehome my two 5-month-old kittens due to my landlord not allowing cats in the building. They have to be adopted together as they are brothers who are highly attached to each other. They play, eat, and sleep together. They are VERY playful and cuddly. They are great with strangers because they are super friendly. They have not been neutered or vaccinated yet, I was planning to do that soon but unfortunately didn’t get the chance to. Looking for a loving and caring individual who will care for them greatly.

Story
We rescued Rue on a camping trip. We took her home and got her vaxxed, microchipped, and back to a healthy weight. She is about 2 years old (according to the vet). She uses the litterbox but has been marking/peeing due to our first cat. They don’t fight often but they don’t quite get along either. She is so sweet with humans. Will roll over and accept tummy pets, is fine with being handled, and purrs like a machine! She gets a little skittish around the washing machine and loud noises but warms up to strangers like it’s nothing. While she enjoys car rides, she does not like being put in a carrier (she prefers to be in your lap or will sit in the passenger seat like a little lady). She loves sleeping with her humans, is very goofy when she plays, and is extremely food motivated making her a good candidate for training if you have the time. We love her very much but cannot keep her!
