Story
Russ is a very loving and affectionate boy. He will lay on your lap and stare lovingly into your eyes. He loves water, and will sit in a sink and let the water run on his back. He is vocal, so he enjoys being talked to. He’s overweight, but gets food for hairballs and healthy weight. I think he’s just meant to be big. Russ has lived with his brother since birth, and I would really like to adopt them together if possible. His brother’s name is Gerry, and he is a bit more independent. He provides affection mostly first thing in the morning and at bedtime. They eat the same food, but Gerry is thinner. I cannot stress how important I think it is that they stay together.

Story
This sweet boy is currently named Billy. We found this lad wandering around a Walmart parking lot back around August last year lost and looking for help. He was really friendly and didn't need much coaxing to get him in our car and keep him safe. We hadn't been able to find his owners and so now we are trying to re-home him. He is a super friendly cat and loves affection. If you scratch his forehead just right he will start "making biscuits" in the air. He genuinely likes belly scratches, and best of all has the softest fur I've ever felt on a cat. You will occasionally find him sitting in these funny "power poses" as we like to call them. He gets along well with our other pets. He is quite playful and hardly gets into spats. We suspect that he suffers from stress diarrhea. The first week we had him he would have soft stool, but it has since gone away.We just think it was from moving to a strange house with other cats that stressed him out.

Story
We found Billy lost in a Walmart parking lot a couple years ago. We had tried to find his owner, but haven't had any luck. We can't say for sure how old he is, but we would guess between 2 and 5 years old. This boy is perhaps the sweetest cat I have ever known. He loves to be pet and having his booty scratched. He's also very greedy with string toys. He'll greet you with a merp, is fine being picked up and held. He doesn't often cuddle, but will sometimes lay on your thigh. He's not shy to strangers, and is fine with young children.

Story
This is my first time owning cats and turns out I am allergic to them. I have bonded with them and this makes things so much harder but they need a loving forever home. Joey is a sweet and loving old man. I am not sure exactly how old he but he acts like a kitten! He loves playing with my dog as well as toys, his laser beam, and loves stalking the birdies out the windows.

Story
Kitty Girl is a 5 year old American Short Hair. She is looking for that good home where she can be part of a family. She will be shy for several months, but warms up as you pay attention to her. She plays well and is curious, but behaves well in a house too. She loves boxes, high places and her toys to play with. She is very clean & not too picky about her litter box. She was brought to our house by one of our kids who lived with us for a while, but they could not take her and now we can no longer afford her. She is an indoor cat only, but loves looking out windows.
