Story
This smart, curious boy is turning 3 and has been loved since he was just 8 weeks old. He’s incredibly intelligent, loves figuring things out, and enjoys exploring every corner of his home. He can be independent at times, he’s also a sweet companion who likes being near his person and will happily curl up on your chest once he feels safe. He can be shy with new people but truly blossoms with patience and trust. He communicates with soft meows and has playful bursts of energy, especially in the evenings. He loves to be mentally stimulated- puzzle toys, climbing spaces, and new spots to investigate make him happiest. I know he would do best with another friendly, playful young cat to help him get his energy out, and a calm home that gives him time to warm up. I unfortunately have to rehome due to housing changes, and I really hope to find him a loving home where he’ll get the attention and enrichment he deserves.

Story
Felix was adopted from SPCA in September. He had been rescued from a hoarding situation. He is very shy and anxious and was very scared when I first got him. He now is able to socialize with the other cat in the household. In fact, he now begs for treats by meowing at the door. He LOVES food and will run at the sound of food hitting his bowl or the treat bag being opened. It takes time. I am looking to rehome Felix to an owner who can take care of his needs and can dedicate time to getting to know him better. At first, he will be very skittish, but will eventually warm up to you. He likes to roam around the house, so it is best not to keep him confined to a single room after he warms up.

Story
3 Years ago I went to the animal shelter in search of a cat. Upon sitting down this cat climbed in my lap purred and swatted all other cats away. He wanted to be adopted. Crook is a unique cat that would be satisfied to be on a lap and cuddle with his owner 24/7. It is because of this need for attention that I have elected to look for a new home for my cat. He is calm, laid -back and gentle. He just loves to be held. In many ways Crook acts more like a dog than a cat. He loves all ages and all people and does not know a stranger. He would be a perfect service animal for older adult or one who is struggling with anxiety. He simply just wants to be held and be close. He is a perfect lap cat. I want to find a new home for my cat who can provide all the love and touch that he desires. If you want a beautiful cat that will love you unconditionally, then Crook is your perfect cat.

I got my cat for my pet supplies placed when I really needed some love. He is so comforting and affectionate, but I just work so much now and have a baby and I don’t have that much time for him. He gets frustrated during separation from its owner

Tiki and Momo are the sweetest cats you'll ever meet. They like to snuggle and play. Would be great with kids and other pets. They have so much love to give. Due to relocation I am looking for a good home for them so they don't have to go to the shelter. For the right home they come with everything you need and more. Cat trees, scratchers, toy and much more for free.
