Story
**SPECIAL NEEDS** Franz is a super sweet guy who gets along well with other cats. Franz does have a heart condition that requires daily meds, but he takes them easily and would love to have a foster or adoptive home with someone who is understanding of his medical needs. He would be a great companion in a quiet home!

Story
Littles was adopted from the Porter County Animal Shelter with her sister Luna in Dec 2022 when she was 4 months old. She is spayed, front declawed, microchipped, and house trained. Littles is the sweetest cat who loves to snuggle on you, purrs like crazy, loves to be pet, enjoys a good play time, and enjoys sharing a home with her sister. She doesn't seem to love the outdoor neighborhood cats who come to the window, so she may need time to adjust to other animals in the home. She has always handled kids and new adults well. We are looking to rehome solely due to a very allergic kiddo. We have tried multiple allergen preventions to no avail. Hoping to find her (and possibly her sister with her) a loving home where she can have lots of attention and a wonderful life.

Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
I adopted Maze through a mutual friend of a coworker at my job who was going through hard times. She couldn’t afford Maze anymore and needed a good home. My coworker recommended me, and I was very happy to give Maze a place where she’d be comfortable. Unfortunately, this coworker didn’t tell me what I was getting into. Maze is a sweet girl, but she has severe behavioral issues and is very obese. I was warned that she might take a while to warm up, but she was receptive and adjusted quickly. The problem was, I have two other cats. I took them to a friend’s place so Maze could get used to my apartment, but after a week, I had to bring them back. I tried introducing them slowly, but even after 6 months, Maze still fights and has injured my other cats. I can’t risk them getting hurt and can’t stand to see her constantly afraid. I feel horrible, but she needs a home where she is the only cat to live a happier life.

Story
I adopted midnight from Coyne vet clinic in Crown Point Indiana. She was just a few months old when we got her. We also adopted her sister who is from the same litter. She is a smaller cat very shy but very friendly. She can be skittish at first but once she relaxes she his the most cuddly cat. Her favorite game to play is fetch. If you throw a small ball or a pompom she will bring it back. She is good with other animals and small children. It would be preferred that she is in a calm environment.
