Story
Stevie is a 2 year old (estimated) lovebug who will cuddle with anyone. She's been indoors since July and came from our backyard. She is best being a single cat household but could 100% adapt to other cats, she just needs time! She's the sweetest rescue we've ever had and loves kisses and love bites. We are looking for someone who is patient and has time to give her love and attention. Incredibly affectionate and clingy, loves to be on your lap and a very happy talkative girl!

Story
This is Axel, he was rescued at 2 days old after his mother was killed. He is a hand raised bottle baby who loves people with a wonderful sweet loving disposition and very high energy. He was born August 7th 2024. He is Siamese and American Shorthair mix, all black with a sleek athletic body, wow can this boy can run and play and he loves to climb. Everything is a toy to him, his one trick is he loves to leap into your arms. This rescued litter of kittens is being sponsored by Kennedy's veterinary clinic, the $75 fee covers the neuter, his kitten shots, blood test for FIV/FeLUK, it was negative and a check up. The kitten is in wonderful healthy condition, raised in a home environment, with adult cats and 2 large dogs. He eats can food (Fancy Feast) and Purina Gentle dry food. Axel is very smart, he's a quite talker, he trills and meows while playing, and comes to a jingle bell. Everyone knows black cats have the best personality and he does.

Story
Blizzy was born to a friend with multiple litters and was raised by a full family with 2 large dogs, 2 other cats, and a newborn all the way to 10months. Blizzy is the best family house cat. Blizzy comes to her name, knows when feeding time is, and consistently uses her litter box. She loves kids and can’t get enough pets from them. She looks to dogs and cats for affection by rubbing her face with theirs. She is fine laying down in your lap, or playing with lasers, feathers, and anything that moves like a mouse would! She has a unique short tail as well as a unique coat coloring. Shes a blondie and certainly acts like it sometimes, but all of the time she’s a sweet girl!

Story
Sam was an outdoor semi feral cat who I was feeding. My goal was to befriend him, get him fixed and vaccinated. Took me 3 months to earn his trust. He was is sweet and decided he didn't want to be outdoors. We couldn't let him in until we knew he was FIV and leukemia negative. His tests were all good, we got his vaccines and got him neutered. We waited to introduce him to our cats. They weren't fans of each other. Talked to his vet and they suggested waiting a couple months while slowly introducing him while testosterone wears off. We tried introducing him to our cats again and he just wanted to fight them. We can't allow this. We have a 12 year old cat in kidney failure and he isn't strong enough to defend himself and two females who he attacked once. Sam does great with our 11 month old lab and teenage kids. He loves kisses and cuddles, loves his toys, treats and learning to use his scratching post. He will be missed greatly but we can't keep the cats separated long term.

Story
Phoenix does well with calm dogs that do not try to chase him but not high energy dogs. He is a strictly indoor cat. He loves to snuggle and has a great motor. We lost our dog and adopted a new, larger puppy that has a lot of energy. Phoenix has been staying in the basement to avoid being chased by the dog even though he loves to lay next to his human and cuddle. He loves to look out the windows and lay in the sun. He needs a clam, comfortable home where he can relax and feel at ease. I do not need an adoption fee. I just want him to go to a good home!
