Story
August (Auggie) is a 12 year old sweet boy. I adopted him from a woman in Arizona when he was 3 years old, because her new husband was allergic to cats. He has been with me through EVERYTHING including various moves, breakups, grad school, getting married, and having my daughter. I love him so much, that I feel like rehoming would be the best thing for him. When my husband and I moved in together, we each had our own cats. Unfortunately, August has not been able to adjust to having a cat brother. For the last 2 years, my normally sweet, outgoing, playful, cuddly, social boy, has become sad, reclusive, and picking fights with the other cat. We have done everything we can to help him adjust, but he refuses. He is great around humans, even my 1 year old daughter, but feels threatened and can not stand to live with another cat. I am looking to rehome him because I just want him to be happy. Hoping to find someone who wants to give lots of love to this sweet boy.

Story
Simba was given to me in 2019, a friend of mines had a cat that give birth. Simba is a very loving cat towards his owner. Loves to get pet every morning (mainly in his stomach) if you have a mice issue he would be happy with it, when I first bought this house in 2019 the last owners mentioned they had a mice problem, since getting simba I have not seen one till this day. Simba is very shy at first but when he trust you he would always want you to pet him.

Story
Grey has been an incredible therapy cat to me for almost seven years. She was adopted from a rescue in Pittsburgh, where she was introduced to me as, "the chillest cat we've ever seen". Grey also goes by "Gracie" and will be your absolute best friend. She likes to greet guests at the door, constantly be able to see you, and will encourage you to lay in the sunlight with her for a quick nap. Gracie also has litter box problems that I am not home enough to solve, so she would do best with a human or a family of humans who are around often.

Chunky is a sweetheart the reason we can’t keep him is because his father and mother (cats) take every chance they can to hurt him and he has no freedom is our home because of this we don’t want to keep him in a room all the time because honestly that’s torture so I want to give him to a loving family because he is a very sweet cat and doesn’t deserve what he goes through it breaks my heart to let him go but I know I can’t keep letting him live like this

Story
Bo is 7yrs and 4 months old as of Sept 2024. I adopted him in the fall of 2021 when I lived in NYC. He and I moved to MA in 2023. A typical day for Bo starts with breakfast and some playing around. He loves chasing whatever is at the end of a wand/string combo. After 10-15 minutes of playing he gets a lil sleepy and takes a nap for a few hours. Dinner at 5pm and he wants to play some more. He’s very affectionate and will come to perfect strangers if called calmly. He can be a bit nervous, startled by loud noises. He gets vocal if his human is home but separated by a closed door where he can’t reach you to play or cuddle. He loves to cuddle or lay near/on people. He could use a human who’s experienced with cats who get a little nervous and skilled at curbing scratching tendencies. A quiet home with a loving and experienced owner will give both of you years of love and cuddles.
