Story
Amber is a very loving 8 month old boy cat. I’ve taken to calling him Slimey after Oscar the Grouch’s pet on Sesame Street because I think that’s cute >:~). He wants to cuddle, play, and sleep curled up with his person. I do not have time in my schedule to give him the affection that he needs, but he would be perfect for somebody who is looking for a constant companion! A home with other cats would be great for him as well - he is a little love bug with a lot of energy and would probably really appreciate having other cats to cuddle and play with.

Story
Bonded pair of adult neutered males, Phantom and Midnight. SW Minneapolis. Roughly 7 years old. Good with kids and humans (kind of attention hogs), not sure how they'd do with other pets, although they are generally chill bois. They belonged to a human who used to live with me and now doesn't, and who chose to leave them here and get a new cat instead. I'm allergic and just not able to give them the attention they need, and it's not fair to them. They are healthy and up to date on shots. I will ask for a donation to Alley Cat Allies (they're former strays) as part of the adoption. I don't need the money but they're not "free" bc I've heard too many horror stories. I'm probably going to want to see where they'd be living. They may not be my cats, but I care about them and want a good place for them.

Story
Healthy , happy Severus Snape and his sister, Bellatrix were rescued from a storm drain when they were 4 weeks old. They were bottle fed by my kids and have been with us ever since. Lovely cuddly cats once they warm up to you. He weighs around 15 pounds and will be 6 years old in The summer. Bellatrix is around 13 pounds and is one of the kitties in the 4th photo I would love it if someone could adopt both cats but they have lived separately at various times due to my living situation I need to rehome Snape and his sister because I am moving out of the US this summer and can’t take them with me

Story
Bellatrix is a 5 year old cuddly little lady. both she her brother were rescued from a storm drain when they were 4 weeks old. We bottle fed them and they became heathy happy cats. They’ve been with me and/or my kid’s ever since. She has been around kids, cats and dogs her entire life. She has no health concerns. It would be great if someone could adopt both kitties together, but they have been separated in several occasions with my various moves Rehoming my cats because I am moving abroad and due to quarantine issues, it works be very difficult to have pets in my home. I hope you’ll have a nice place for this sweet girl to live

Story
Eclair is a great kitty that would do well with a woman as a solo cat. She was rescued as a kitty and has barn cat in her. Isn’t super cuddly but is sweet once she gets to know you. She is quite alpha, and I have another female and they just don’t get along. She startles a bit easy - lower male voices can scare her a bit. I think it’s from her first place when she was a kitty. Very clean - always uses litter box, doesn’t scratch at all. Needs a nice calm place where she can play with a laser pointer 1-2x/day. She likes to play mommy with male cats and tends to get along but I haven’t had good luck with females. Can’t foster her because of that variable. Got all of her shots when young (adopted 2020 when a kitten) but probably needs a new rabies shot, even though she is very much an indoor cat.

Please meet Cole. This very friendly and loving fella loves to play. He is black with a white patch under his chin and 3 white toes on his back left foot. After a play session all he wants is some affection and to lay on your lap for a nap. He was born in March of 2024. He has been neutered & is up to date on his vaccinations. This animal is being fostered in the South but transport to a location near you is included in your adoption fee. We use Rescue Riders Pet Transport,...(www.rescueridersllc.net), the most animal-friendly transport on the road.
