Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,

Story

We took in Murph as a favor to a friend who couldn’t keep him anymore. We didn’t intend to keep him as long as we have. He has been great with our two little kids (6 yo, 3yo) and likes to wrestle and play chase with our Blue-healer. He can be shy around new people but when he warms up, he can be very affectionate. The reason we are needing to rehome Murph is that our 14 year old Husky doesn’t do well with cats. We have tried for a couple years at this point to make it work thinking that as both animals got older and used to each other, they would get along. We were wrong. Unfortunately, we feel it is not safe for Murph and it is unfair to both pets to have to be constantly segregated in the house or heavily supervised. We will be sad to see him go but we feel it’s in the best interest for everyone. Please consider taking in Murph! He would be a great addition to your home!

I acquired her from IACS. She is a lovely cat but she was raised in multiple foster houses with numerous other pets, and is really struggling in my household without any furry friends. I'd love to find her a permanent household with other cats to keep her company.

Cecil

American Shorthair

Details

Good with cats, House-trained,

Story

Found on the mean streets of Indianapolis alongside his two brothers, Cecil has been the leader of the pack from day one. Ever since we found him, Cecil has captured our hearts with his gentle playfulness, and assertive demeanor. Despite this, Cecil has also remained the most calm and well mannered of the three, which is why adopting this guy out has been harder than we could have ever imagined. He has shown a high degree of intelligence for a cat his age, and continues to surprise and delight us as he continues to develop his personality. His latest development is that he has become quite the cuddle bug, and insists on being held every chance he can get. We hope that his forever home provides him with as much love as he has shown us. The adoption fee is to cover a single vet visit that was made when we first rescued him and his brothers.

Good with cats, House-trained,

Story

It was obvious from the moment I found the three brothers that this guy was the runt of the litter. His small size did not stop him from making his voice heard, and definitely did not stop him from showing just how big his heart is. Nuka has always been my favorite of the three, not because he was so tiny and adorable, but because he was the most loving and gentle of the three. Any time that I am around Nuka, if he is not preoccupied with his favorite tennis ball, he is attempting to give me kisses and purring as loud as he can. Nuka is full of love and I hope that his forever home is able to smother him in more love than he knows what to do with, because I know for a fact he deserves it. The adoption fee is to cover a preliminary vet visit that was performed when we first acquired the three brothers. They were very sick and malnourished, but now they are healthy, happy, and ready for new homes!

Not good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained,

Story

Phoebe was born August 5th 2023. She enjoys boxes, high places, looking out of windows, and napping on people’s laps. She’s very vocal and energetic. She also enjoys chicken, turkey, and cheese as treats, but isn’t a fan of fruits. She doesn’t get along well with my chihuahua but she’d probably get along well with a more relaxed dog. Phoebe would do well with someone who has had or has other cats and/or someone who can help her get some of her energy out so she’s not bored.

Story

This is Grace. She was my mother's cat. She is extremely sweet and personable and would be a perfect pet for even an inexperienced owner. She uses the box religiously and is on dry food. My mother passed unexpectedly and we have been trying to incorporate Grace into our home, however, we have three resident cats, two of which have accepted her, but the third, an alpha female, refuses to accept her. We cannot keep Grace, as this has cause major disruption in our home between the animals and we fear for Grace's safety. I would like for Grace to have a loving home that will allow her to have the affection and attention she desires. She is six years old, has no health issues and no behavioral issues. She is declawed front paws and spayed.
