Story
Jasper is a handsome, funny, talkative boy, who is ready for his furever home! He is playful and has the most hilarious vocalizations - especially at mealtime. Having spent the first three months of his life outside with his four siblings and feral mom, he is now learning how to be a pampered house cat. Jasper is calm and sweet, yet also energetic and curious. He enjoys chasing balls and fishing rod type toys. He is comfortable with other young cats and probably older cats as well. Jasper likes being petted and having her head scratched and purrs loudly. He has great potential as an affectionate lap cat for a patient, gentle pet parent who gives him the time and love to adjust to his new home. Could that be you?

Meet this adorable girl, Jazz - a true New Orleans native! She is ready for her furever home. She is a lovely tuxedo tabby, with a bright white bib and paws, soft silky medium length fur and a long-haired plume tail. Having spent the first three months of her life outside with her four siblings and feral mom, she is now learning how to be a pampered house cat! Jazz is a bit shy, but calm and sweet. She enjoys chasing balls and fishing rod type toys and sitting in the window watching the world go by. She is comfortable with other young cats and probably older cats as well. Jazz enjoys being petted and having her head scratched while purring. With some patience and TLC she will come out of her shell and be a sweet, loving kitty.

Story
We believe this sweet little cat is a kitten from a stray in the neighborhood. She's young and we've seen her around for the past few months. She's very friendly. There are kids and dogs and plenty of cats in the neighborhood. She gets along with all of them. I worry that she won't last long on the street though. She's been coming over to eat at our place for a while now and it would be so nice if she could find a forever home.

Story
Tuna is a very sweet boy from the streets of NOLA. We fed him once, and he immediately showed how sweet he was and started snuggling. We got him neutered, and got him tested and he has a clean bill of health. We need to get him one more round of shots, which will be done soon. The only reason we're trying to rehome him is only because we realized three cats are too much for our schedules. He is a very sweet boy and would definitely do well in a new home. Thank you!

Story
Urgent rehoming! This is Layla. She is very sweet. She loves to cuddle 💘. Also loves every single human she's ever met! She was originally adopted from petsmart so she has all her vaccinations! She would prefer to be in a 1 cat household. I am currently fostering her and I had no idea she wouldn't react well to my other cats. She is afraid of my other 7 rescue cats. This caused fights, so I have her separated now. She deserves to be in a loving forever home but our local shelter is completely full, so I wanted to get the word out on here. There will be a small rehoming fee just to be safe. Thanks!

Story
Callie is roughly 1.5 years old. I found her roughly 6 months ago and she was pregnant. I decided to keep her on my property to ensure she was fed and safe. She had the kittens and they were rehomed. I now need a home for Callie. She is everything a person could want. She is very chill and adapts to any situation. She lets you hold her, grab her and handle her however you want. She meows rarely. She loves being inside but can go outside and will return home whenever she wants to. SHE LOVES FOOD. She could endlessly eat. She doesn't play with toys much but may if you work with her on it. She doesn't scratch at furniture or anything.

Onyx is two years old. He is very independent, but loves affection. He can be standoff-ish at first, but once he is adjusted he is very affectionate. I’m looking for a nice loving home for him.

Story
Urgently looking to rehome my 10 yr. old cat Scooby. Had a death in family and need to go out of town for 4-6 months to pack up and sell house. Need to leave by the 7th of Dec. Had someone to take him but they backed out at last minute due to other commitments. Scooby has been neutered, and litterbox trained. He gets along with other cats. Trained not to get on counters, and not to get underfoot in kitchen. He's not a lap cat but does like to sleep in bed and be petted. Scooby, a male tiger, is independent, loves to play with his laser light and string toy and is both an indoor/outdoor cat. Loves to lay on his window perch sunning himself. I'd prefer not to let him go, and would like to readopt him when I return if possible. I'd prefer not to have to give him up to the Humane Society. If you can help in any way contact me via this website. Thank you for your time and consideration. Janet 😿😿

Lola is approximately 6 months old. She is friendly, playful, and snuggly. She gets along well with other cats and children. I travel for my job and am unable to properly care for her. Would be amazing to see her go to a loving home
