Story
Found this cat hanging around our garage. Brought him in to nurse him to health. Housed, litter trained and are looking to rehome due to our animals not getting along with this cat. He is very friendly and loving. He is very eager to play with other cats and has bundles of energy! He like to snuggle and loves to lay in the sun! He LOVES being under a blanket.

Story
Mochi is 9 years old where our friend gave her to our daughters as a kitten about four weeks old , she is well behaved being the only cat but gets along with others once she knows them. She loves to play, lay in laps when someone is working or watching tv and loves to cuddle at night under the covers. Her special need is that she will need time to adapt to a new owner. She is extremely shy to new people. She loves her family, but new people scare her, but she eventually warms up after a little bit, but it takes her a while. We are looking for a new family or person who will love her and care for her as we have. She is very sweet and is a lover and just wants to be loved. She has her front claws removed so she is strictly an indoor cat, she would not do well outside. She is spayed and has her shots. She is overall a wonderful kitty and we would love to keep her but my husband has cat allergies and older years are making them worse.

Story
Simba was born April 29th, 2024 that is what his previous owner mention when he gave him to me. The only reason I’m looking for any home is that Simba has behavior issues and loves to be free roam kitten and I feel that he deserves a home that he is allow to roam freely. Simba is a great companion that will love you no matter what he has made my boy happy.
