Story
Dane is an affectionate 4 year old neutered male, up to date with vaccinations and vet visits. He's been frequenting my house from the neighbors a couple of houses down the street. They have a toddler and a newborn child, four dogs plus another cat. Dane needs a more suitable new home. He likes to be indoors at times but loves the outdoors, and would most likely be happiest in a home with some room to roam and play outdoors. He sports a nice orange coat, with short hair and beautiful markings, including distinctive white rings on his tail! If you're looking for the perfect indoor/outdoor cat for your home, send your application today and meet Dane!

Story
Gray-Bay and Sterling are both loving, playful, and talkative and have a lot of energy. They both love to play with any catnip toys and laser pointer, and love to be brushed. Sterling loves to sit on your shoulder and Gray-Bay will curl up on your lap. I found them both as kittens 5 years ago. They have always gotten along great with each other, but not with my other cat, so would be great as only cats. Unfortunately, as I’ve become busier with taking care of my elderly mother, and gone long hours, I do not have the time to spend with them that they need. They will make great companions for someone who can give them the love and attention they deserve! Please let me know if you have any questions. Also including their liter boxes, toys and pet beds.

Story
Nani just might be the perfect cat! She is self-reliant while also extremely affectionate. She takes great care of herself and is low maintainence. She is house trained and has experience with other cats and humans. She was born to another house cat approximately six months ago, but a week ago, was thrown outside by her owner. I found her and her siblings struggling to survive in the cold and decided to take them in. As of right now, Nani has received her first round of vaccinations and her rabies shot good for one year. She recently got spayed (I will provide paperwork upon adoption). Adoption fee is $50. Nani is in need of a caring owner! I promise you will fall in love with her just as I have.

America is a sweetheart! She loves to cuddle, be given attention, play, and eat food! She is very curious, but also very well-behaved. She is house trained and used to other cats and humans. She was born to another house cat approximately six months ago, but a few weeks ago, was thrown outside by her owner.

Vixen's right hip was injured; we don't know how, but she doesn't like her right hip being touched. She is an inside cat because of it.
