Story
Hello, my name is Paxton James and Iam 5 yrs old! I am the most lovable baby boy ever. I love to sit on my moms lap and cuddle. I will sleep with you once I get comfortable with things and you. I am shy at first but very curious and gentle. I love watching the birds and sitting out on my moms balcony, no I have never jumped of the 2 store balcony. My mom loves me so much and it pains her to have to do this but she can't take me. In my new home Im looking cuddles, lots of love, attention, and calmness (I've never lived with a dog). If possible I would like to be fostered until my mom gets her home built spring of next year, but understand if that's not a possibility for my mom loves me dearly and would love to have me with her in the new home.

Story
I have a very pretty kitty who is a bit shy at first, but with some attention and interaction with a person, she will fit right in with her new family. Her name is Dusty, she and her mama and siblings were abandonded to fend for themselves for 2 or 3 months. If not for a kind neighbor coming over to feed them, they would never have a second chance at a kind family in a new forever home. Dusty is spayed with shots up to date, and litterbox trained. She is about 8 or 9 months old. I fyou'd like to meet Dusty, please call or text Edith at 315-663-4722. Thank you! ##2204328##

Coral is a very loving kitty with beautiful green eyes. She is 1-2 years old, litter box trained, is spayed with shots, Coral and her 4 "kids" were abandond by their owner and left alone for a couple of months. Thankfully the neighbor was looking in on them. Coral is playful, but I'm sure would rather sit and be pet forever. If you'd like to meet Coral, please text or call Edith at 315-663-4722. Thank you! ##2131449##

Story
**Local Family Provides Shelter for Stray Cat Family** Last month, a local family discovered a mama cat and her five kittens huddled on their doorstep. Though unable to bring them inside due to their senior cat, the family quickly stepped into action, crafting a cozy shelter out of a cooler equipped with a heating pad. A waterproof cover keeps the feline family warm and dry, but with colder weather setting in, the family is growing concerned about keeping them safe. Feeding the cats twice daily and ensuring they have fresh water, the family has also been working to earn the trust of their timid guests. "They don’t seem feral,” a family member said. “Mama and most of the kittens let us pet them.” The family plans to pay for the kittens’ vaccinations and check-ups to make future adoptions easier but has yet to corral them for the vet visit. "We just want to give them the best chance at a furever home." Until then, the furry visitors remain a part of this household's extended family.

Good with cats, Needs special attention, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
MJ was abandoned & left to fend for herself when her owner passed away (3 yrs ago) & has been living outside in the elements. MJ is estimated to be 5+ y/o & is shy, which is understandable being that she has had such a rough life living outside for so long. MJ was very affectionate with the person that was feeding her. MJ has adapted 100% to being an indoor cat again. She loves being talked to & enjoys grooming while in the sun. She is visibly getting more comfortable being around humans again but may need a little time. MJ is fully vetted & litter trained. She loves cat scratching pads. As a result of an upper respiratory infection (being treated for), it was discovered that she is positive for feline calicivirus (FCV). For this reason, MJ is considered a special needs kitty in that she should be the sole cat in one’s home (or in a home with other FCV positive kitties). The necessities needed to start caring for her will be provided (some food, dishes, litter, litter box & carrier).

Nyla was a stray cat that we have found so many years ago and brought her into to help and love her . Which is has been the best animal ever but due to us now having a family we are not able to bring her along with us on our new journey . She is very loving and friendly , I only wish she will receive the same amount of love from her new owner as she did with us .
