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

Boots is an incredibly loving, high-energy boy. This spirited guy was living on the streets of Baltimore for his first few months of life before I rescued him. From the outset, he was the sweetest - and most playful - cat I've met. In the over two years I've had him, he's never hissed at me, and loves to sleep under a blanket by my feet - or on them. He's spent a lot of time with a couple golden retrievers, who are his best friends, so he typically can be good with dogs (or get accustomed to them). Boots has a lot of energy and loves being around people; he should go to a home with someone who can play with him and keep him entertained.

Story

Are you an introvert? Love reading books or watching a movie with a cuddle buddy on your lap? If so, this is your guy! Sassafras Swirl is an introvert too. He arrived at my door a little over a year ago. He was emaciated and wasn't going to make it. I started feeding him, fell in love with him, and brought him inside. He was clearly a former housecat. Sassafras had a PU (perineal urethrostomy) surgery in December. That, along with a prescription diet and being separated from my other cats, seems to have fully resolved his FLUTD (feline lower urinary tract disease) issues. I have 3 cats and he is bullied by one of them. I've "tried it all" and there is no resolving it. For his health, I keep him separated, but it breaks my heart. He would love a home of his own with no other pets or kids. He has made huge strides in the past year! He's a shy, low energy guy, with anxiety who would love a pet parent who can relate, and give him time and space to come out of his shell even more.

Story

EJ was a stray cat living outside of an office building for the last year or two. She was captured and brought in only a few weeks ago. She is a huge cuddler, has no problem with pets on her head, belly, tail, back, etc! She's an absolute star. She's shown no tendency to escape, no destructive behaviors, and had been completely calm around other animals. She can be shy but quickly opens up when she knows you just want to love her. :) She took a nail trim with no issues as well. Truly a wonderful kitty. She has been taken to a vet and is fixed and now has her rabies and distemper shots. She did not have a chip. She tested positive for FIV (essentially feline HIV) which unfortunately means she must be strictly indoor only and should be the only other cat in the household. However she is otherwise in great health and should live a long and normal kitty life despite this diagnosis.

Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs special attention, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Suki appeared outside our apartment building several months ago. We took her to the vet and learned she has no microchip. She has continued coming by for food and, as the weather got colder, we started bringing her inside at night. Since getting her spayed, she has been living full-time with us. We are not a good permanent home for Suki (we have two other cats, and she is FELV ), and we're hoping to find her a suitable, loving home. She is up-to-date on vaccines. Something special about Suki: she has endeared our entire neighborhood and is just the best cat. Multiple households have chipped in to look after her. She is incredibly friendly, talkative, and loves to sleep upside down. She's also very adaptable. She learned to use the cat box quickly, follows commands, comes with she's called, and likes to be a companion. She doesn't mind trips to the vet or going in carriers.
