Lost kitty that we took in. Needs a permanent home. Clearly someone’s lost pet. Can’t find the owner. Does well with our cats and dog. Would likely do well in a home with other pets.

Story
Milo is a rambunctious, joyful little guy with endless energy and a big heart. He's playful, fast, and wonderfully silly, the kind of kitten who turns everyday moments into entertainment. Milo loves to zoom, pounce, and chase toys, especially when other cats are involved. He truly thrives with feline friends. He especially bonded with his brother Pibble, and the two are a loving, playful pair who do best together. They balance each other beautifully bringing constant entertainment and companionship. Despite all that energy, Milo has a very sweet side. He's affectionate, loving, and happy to soak up attention once he's had a chance to play. He enjoys being close to his people and has that special kitten charm that makes him impossible not to love. Milo is curious, confident, and full of personality, a great little boy who will bring laughter, affection, and life into any home. Milo and his brother just turned 12 weeks old and are looking for a home ready for double the fun and love.

Story
Onyx is a beautiful, loving cat who is both indoor and outdoor. My best friend suddenly passed away on Thursday, January 15, 2026, and Onyx was her beloved cat. I promised her I would find him a safe and loving home. He is potty trained, and she always kept him up to date on his shots. Unfortunately, I’m unable to take him in because he does not get along with my dogs. If anyone is able to give Onyx a loving home, I would be forever grateful. He deserves a peaceful place where he can continue to be loved, just as she loved him so deeply. 🖤

Story
Pibble is a playful, energetic little sweetheart with a warm, loving spirit and a heart full of affection. He has plenty of kitten energy and loves to play, explore, and tumble around, especially with his brother Milo, to whom he is very closely bonded. What truly sets Pibble apart is his gentle, affectionate nature. He loves being near his people and is happiest when he can curl up close or follow you from room to room. Pibble is wonderfully social and gets along great with other cats, including older cats, making him a lovely fit for a multi-cat home. Pibble and Milo bring out the best in each other and are most content together. They balance playful chaos with sweet companionship and share a strong bond that is a joy to watch. Pibble just turned 12 weeks old and is looking for a forever home with his brother Milo, a home ready for double the love, energy, and kitten magic.

Story
Bebe was adopted from a shelter and is a very loving cat. He likes to go outside but is primarily an indoor cat. He is approximately 4-5 years old and is full of life. He can be vocal and likes to express himself using his deep meows. He is very active and has a wonderful personality. He enjoys affection and company. He is playful with my other cat and should not have a problem with bonding. He can be needy but he is well trained and easy going. Being that he comes from a shelter, he can take awhile to warm up to new people. However, once he trusts you, he will be extremely friendly. His loyalty knows no bounds and he deserves a loving home.
