I am a very playful girl but let's take it slow. No pick ups at first please, once I get to know you and get comfortable we will reach that level so don't worry! I would do better in a home with older children.

Story
We adopted Cupcake from a foster family after her mother was hit by a car. We are also looking to rehome her brother, Grayson. She’s fully vaccinated and spayed. Cupcake is very sweet-tempered, adventurous, intelligent, and curious. She is not quite a year old and will make a wonderful companion. She’ would be great with a large family, but not require it. She is always investigating anything new, and would be as comfortable in busy environments as not. The ideal home for her would have multiple people to shower affection on her and help keep her entertained.

Story
We adopted Grayson and his sister, Cupcake from a foster agency at 8 weeks after his mother was hit by a car. He is just under a year old as well as fully vaccinated and neutered. Grayson is more independent than his sister, needs less attention and tends to be affectionate primarily to his special person. He can be timid sometimes of new environments. Looking for a safe home for him, either all indoor or indoor /outdoor (following an adjustment period). He would be well-suited to a smaller, quieter household.

He’s been a good cat for me but I have a baby on the way and his mother is worried about the babies safety. It breaks my heart to need to rehome him but I’m praying we find a good one here.

Story
Sylvan is a healthy 3 year old shorthair/blue with a friendly, bold, smart, loving and playful personality. His paws have a beautiful silver coating that glisten in the light and he grooms himself very well. He enjoys a calm environment, lounging on a deck, and walks outside with his harness. He also loves drinking water from his fountain and eats dry and wet food for optimal health (salmon and tuna are his favorite). He gets along with other domesticated cats, is low maintenance and trained, knows several English words, and welcomes interaction and affection. A one (1) month food supply and all supplies will be included for the perfect new owner.

Story
Was born in early May 2024 . Litter of five, all the others have found homes. Had an issue with his right eye that required veterinary treatment. Ergo the name Left Eye since that was his good eye. Had to apply ointment to the affected eye. Condition has improved. Has vision in both eyes.
