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
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!

My mother rescued Tipsy and his brother Pepe and sister Stormy as kittens when they were separated from their mother. I don’t know the whole story….. Her veterinarian found the kittens for her and then tragically passed away, so no one knows their story. My mother passed away and I need to find a home for the cats.

Story
Meet Percy. He's a young adult with medium-length fur. He is a Big fella now. I love to spoil the kitties. What can I say? March 17th he was trapped. Weeks prior Percy and another kitty were spotted with injuries that required medical attention. Took a volunteer week and only Percy was trapped and immediately saw the vet He's been at the sanctuary healing. With daily care needed he finally learned to accept us humans. He was a feisty grossly fella but the trick is wet food 2x a day with petting and patience. He was neutered a week ago and today he is ready for his happy forever to find him. Percy is FIV positive, also has a heart murmur, and due to his lack of ability /street wisdom he cannot be released back outside. He needs a family that will shower him with love, attention, playtime, toys and quality care indoors living only. A responsible pet-owning home. Did I mention how much he loves warm wet food?! Percy is good with cats and dogs. His stay at the sanctuary has allowed him to trust he's safe around them. Available now animalhousesanctuary.org
