Story
Lulu was adopted when she was around 3 months old. That was 2 1/2 years ago. She has a loving personality, very independent and curious. Honestly, she's great. Unfortunately we did not anticipate the amount of shedding throughout the house. We cannot handle it and are hoping to find her a place where she can be herself and loved. We will also give you her belongings (toys, bed, litter box, to name a few).

Sake is in a bonded pair with Sushi. Sake is a big, friendly cat. She loves to lay around the house, comes to you to say hi, and is always interested in house visitors. She needs special food for allergies. However she had no allergy issues in our last home, so she may be fine in yours. Sake gets along with dogs and children. I have a cat tree and litter robot to provide to Sake and Sushi’s adopter.

Story
Hi! Meet Penelope, she’s my baby and she’s been a great companion from the start. My older sister adopted Penelope from a breeder in PA when she was about 3 months old, but realized it was too big of a responsibility for her at the time. I’ve been caring for Penelope ever since, along with the help of my parents. She always loved to cuddle while also enjoying her independence. Penelope is now a little older than 2 years old (I’m not sure when her birthday is). Penelope likes to go outside, but is also good indoors. I’m moving to California beginning of 2025 and am not able to take her with. I’m looking for a home that will love her as much as I do. She is indeed neutered after she had kittens in 2023, Oct 15th. Penelope also has her rabies shots, cat hiv vaccine, and documentation of all vaccines.

Story
Doc and Professor are a two for one deal. They are bonded. I adopted Doc when he was 6 years old (he’s 16 now) and Professor when he was 4 months ( he’s 8). Both are microchipped. Doc loves attention, cuddles, kneading, and will always tell you he loves you. Professor is a slow burn. He warms up with time. When he finally comes to you, you’ll feel like you earned it. They have lived with additional cats but never a dog. Doc will sleep near kids and let them pet him. He’s never bit or hissed but he will scurry if they come for his tail. Professor usually hides from children. Unfortunately I am traveling for a new job and can’t provide them the attention and space I want to.
