Story
I found Nermal when he was about 8 weeks old wandering around at night. I celebrated his first birthday on October 9, 2024. He is a high-energy cat and loves and needs to play. He grew up with my roommate's dog who plays pretty rough. He adopted this style of play and as time went on and I moved into a house with a bunny, he played too rough with the bunny and I did not have the time in my schedule to retrain him which I believe is all he needs, or a house where he is the only pet. That is his only problem. He is incredibly well-behaved, sweet, and the perfect cutest little cat. He has never gone outside of his litterbox despite having to move twice. He is very food motivated, his favorite toys are those little springs, and I will be giving whoever adopts him a bag of his goodies (his preferred food, his favorite toys, a blanket that smells like what he is used to, etc.) I will also include a pack of ear wipes, as I usually clean his ears every day or every other day.

Story
Mama Kitty is a sweet cat. She loves to sleep on our bed. She likes to be pet as long as you don't touch her tail area. We found her outside with her daughter Honey Bear who is also up for adoption. They are very good friends. Unfortunately we have another cat who picks on Mama which is why we want to rehome her. Mama is a very timid cat who stays only in our bedroom. She deserves a home where she doesn't have to be afraid. Where she can feel safe to go anywhere in the house. Ideally we would love for her and Honey Bear to be together without any other cats in the home to terrorize her. Mama loves to treat time every night. She can be quite playful if she feels safe. We love her but want a better life for her.

Story
She hasn't been around many other pets. My parents have had dogs in the house, but I've always kept her away from them because she did get scared during their initial meeting. This was just for her safety and to avoid raising her anxiety. She may actually benefit from interactions with other pets and animals. I'm a truck driver and have lived on the road for most of her life. She has been alone while I'm away but well fed and watered. My parents interact with her daily as well. She was born the only survivor in her litter, which drowned in a basement window well in 2013. Her mother, a stray, birthed them and left them during severe storms at that time. We rescued her and have had her since. Unfortunately, with my busy schedule and recent move, I can no longer care for her. She needs a forever, caring home!
