Story
Hello Her name is Nique (named after my owners first high school boyfriend who recently passed away) she was born June 24th 2022. Nique is lovable and wants to be caressed by her demands with kisses to her head 🥰 and then she likes to be independents and relax. I have to surrender her because my daughter has a 7 month old and we have three cats and a dog which is now becoming a little overwhelming 😔 I don’t want to take her to the shelter because they’ll euthanize her 😩 and she doesn’t deserve that. Please help me rehome her to a loving family.

Story
Sol is the sweetest boy, I love him deeply, but he needs a home where he can have access to the outside. Sol loves to cuddle and play with a string. He has a calming purr and is a very gentle boy. He does not scratch or bite. He is a peaceful boy and avoids conflict with my other cat. Sol does not like loud sounds, and will hide if there are babies or unknown people that make sound. For the first three years of his life, since I adopted him as a small kitten, he had access to the woods. He is not a fighting or aggressive cat, so he never got into any trouble or brought hunted animals back home. A month ago we moved into an apartment and he is having a really tough time. He cries all day and night to be let out. He has started peeing on my sofa. This was never an issue when he could go outside. It breaks my heart to do this, but he needs a better home. It is really tough for me to watch him cry so much. All I want is for him to be happy.

He gets along with men, women, and children. He has lived with dogs and gets along with them. I am moving and really want him to find a loving home. He has a self cleaning litter box and and automatic feeder that can come with him free of charge.

Story
Rehoming Two Very Affectionate Cats I am faced with the difficult decision of finding a new home for my two sweetheart cats. They are two years old and from the same litter. Healthy, neutered, and up-to-date on vaccines. Due to financial circumstances, I am moving in with my family, where there is a dog that is aggressive towards cats. To ensure their safety and well-being, I am seeking a kind, safe, and loving home where they can continue to thrive together. Please see the attached photos. If you are interested in providing a forever home for Moose and Bao, or if you know of someone who might be, please reach out to me at the email provided. Your kindness and assistance in spreading the word are greatly appreciated. Gratefully, Isabel

Story
I believe Marmalade may have been abandoned but he is cute, super friendly and he is definitely used to being around people and other animals. He just got his shots and was neutered. They estimated his age to be 2 yrs old. I would keep him but I already have a dog and a cat in my small condo.
