Story
Sunny came to us as a stray kitten on our porch. He is very loving and sweet with adults and kids. He can be shy but once he warms up he's in your lap. Unfortunately, he does not get along with our cats. We consulted with our vet and tried several different options before deciding to rehome. I believe he would be happier as a single pet and really want that for him. He has been diagnosed with environmental allergies, he occasionally sneezes. For that, he takes zyrtec (over-the-counter allergy medication) as needed for sneezing. It is very easy to give him. I can provide veterinary medical records.

Story
Tori loves to snuggle people she has chosen to like. She is still playful at 9 years old, but loves to snooze. She is great around my two young children and has never bitten or scratched them, even when they sit on her. She has been around small and large dogs with no issues, as long as she has an escape area. We have been having issues lately related to us not having time to devote to her due to young children and our large golden doodle being in her space. She has been boycotting the litter box fairly recently due to these things. This has become a problem that we are unable to overcome as it is effecting the health of our children. We love her dearly and I know she would do great somewhere that is able to give her more attention and loving. She is full of character, loves sunbathing, and she has been a wonderful companion. Tori has all her shots, is spayed and declawed in the front.

Story
Originally Mala was supposed to just be a foster. She was found on the side of a highway and she must’ve only been four or five weeks old. We fell in love with her and decided to keep her. This was in 2020. However, after having a couple kiddos, we have realized that they stress her out too much and we do not feel it is fair for her to stay in our home, she is fine with teens though. Very friendly, cuddley and sweet with adults and other cats.

Story
Hello, this is Boogie Man. He is around a year old and is very sweet when he wants to be. I was left with his care when my ex left him with me and I cannot provide the care he needs along with my two cats that belong with me. He is friendly with older children and is extremely playful. He does sometimes play well with other cats, but he is very energetic and wants to chase and play fight, which my cats do not enjoy. His perfect home would be someone who can get him the care he needs, play with him, and talk to him when he starts yelling from another room.

Story
We adopted Koda as a kitten. We’ve had him for 4 years. In June we moved into our brand new home. Since then, he has started to pee on our couch and claw at the carpet on our stairs. I really need to rehome this fella. He would do GREAT with just 1 other cat or only animal in the home. This breaks our heart, as we are the only family he knows. But I can’t afford for him to destroy any more of our home. I feel with the right environment, he will thrive, as he is a skidish cat. We have 3 wild children. Please help us rehome him. We really do not want to take him to the shelter.

Story
Meet Sable, She is a gorgeous black cat with golden eyes and a heart full of love to give. She came to us under sad circumstances—her previous owner couldn’t take her to their new home. But this resilient little lady is ready for her next chapter, and she’s hoping it’s with you! Age: Unknown, but she appears to be a young adult. Personality: Sweet, affectionate, and a bit shy at first. Once she warms up to you, she’ll follow you around like a shadow and be your ultimate cuddle buddy. What Sable Needs: Sable would thrive in a quiet, loving home where she can take her time to feel safe and secure. She’s looking for someone patient and kind who will let her come out of her shell at her own pace. Once she does, she’ll reward you with endless love and companionship. If you think Sable might be the perfect addition to your family, please reach out to us to learn more about this sweet girl and how you can meet her. She’s waiting for someone like you to give her the love she deserves!

Story
We got her from a friend who's mother left her in the house she got alone. She's around 5 years old. She's so sweet and loves to be pet/butts her head on any surface for pets. She has had some dental work done due to an issue she had before we got her. 12 teeth were removed but she seems to eat dry food just fine. We give her wet food as well to ease the strain on her teeth. We are looking to rehome because after 4 months, she is not getting along with the other cat we've had for years. Our friend had kids and we think she was okay with them. I'm not sure about dogs but for sure not okay with other cats. She's very sweet to people but is wary and growls at outside noises (living in an apartment there were neighbors going in and out). The outside noises seem to not bother her too much anymore.
