Story
Oscar is an orphan. My brother passed away in October and had 2 cats and a dog. I found loving homes for 2 of them but now have Oscar. I will not abandon him. He is sweet 10 year old and been through so many changes in this past year, he deserves a loving home for the rest of his life. My brother adopted him at 8 weeks old from the SPCA. Oscar has had a busy and full life up to the last year. For a year Oscar went from a fun and busy life to lonely and sad life waiting for my brother to come home, but he never did. Please be the family that will love him as my brother did and as we do. He deserves a family to love him. Any fee collected will go directly to the SPCA

Story
Petunia, our soft-spoken 12-year-old sweetheart, who's always dressed for the occasion in her perfect black-and-white tuxedo. She's a gentle girl with a high-pitched meow (though she often greets with a sweet, silent meow, her own quiet way of saying hello). Petunia has been part of our family for 8 wonderful years. She had a tough start. Found cold and all alone as a kitten in a warehouse in the middle of winter, but she's grown into the most loving little lady. Life has changed significantly since then, and our home has become a bit too unpredictable for her calm, steady nature. We know she deserves a peaceful space where she can truly relax again. Petunia would thrive as an only cat, with someone who matches her mellow, affectionate energy. She especially loves to cuddle up at night while watching TV or reading a good book. The perfect companion for a quiet evening in. If you're looking for a tender-hearted companion to share your couch (and your heart), Petunia might be your girl!

Story
Amber is a 3-year-old Domestic Short Hair who was originally adopted from a shelter as a kitten by a friend, we got her when she was about 1yr old. She has always been a gentle, quiet, and shy girl who does best in a calm home. She loves to be touched and loves attention, she follows you anywhere, bathroom, bedroom, etc. Amber enjoys soft, sunny spots, and watching her surroundings from a safe, cozy place. Once she feels secure, she shows her sweet side—she loves slow blinks, soft pets, and peaceful companionship and will start kneading and laying in your lap. Amber would do well with a patient adopter who understands timid cats and can give her time to settle in at her own pace. She is fully indoor, spayed, microchipped, and weighs about 8 lbs. She has no known medical issues and eats her food reliably as long as she feels comfortable. She would prefer to be the only cat.

Story
Shimba has been part of my life since he was just an 8-week-old kitten, and he’s grown into the most loving, gentle, and friendly cat you could ever meet. He’s a treat lover through and through — especially if you bring him some chicken or tuna! Shimba enjoys his naps and can sleep for hours, often curling up in the coziest corner of the house. He’s not a fan of showers (and will make sure you know it!) and gets a little scared of the vacuum cleaner, but that just adds to his adorable personality. Shimba is a sweet companion who loves attention and gentle cuddles. He deserves a calm, caring home where he can keep being his soft, sleepy, loving self.

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.

Story
Lady is the love of my life! I cannot believe that our relationship has come to this. I received her as a birthday gift that took a little time for her to trust me. Once she learned to trust we have been the best of friends. We talk, love each other with kisses and nods. She allows me to hold her for a short period of time and sleeps with me. She’s a great best friend but can be possessive and territorial. She’s a scary cat; runs and hides when new people comes over, new voice and definitely at the sound of the door bell.
