Story
I am the black male of two siblings. My sister's name is LuLu. We are seven months old. We enjoy playing with each other and with our toys. I love attention and getting loving but my sister, LuLu, has some differences. She requires a little more patience to come around in a new environment. I feel that we would be better if we were adopted together because of our bond and my sister needs some support from me to have a smoother adjustment to our forever home, but we can be separated if absolutely needed. If you would be interested in giving us our forever home, here is some information you would need to know: Our adoption fees would be $75 each if adopted separately, but if you would like to keep us together, the adoption fee would be reduced to 50% off to cover a portion of our expenses for the rescue. The rescue will also provide some essentials we would need in our new home.

Story
I am Lannie, the female sibling, and my brother is Linnie. We are seven months old now. We are close to looking alike but have a few color differences. Lannie has more of a silver color to him and I have more of a brown color like our momma. We enjoy playing and chasing each other. He has a more curious personality than me. Love attention and giving love while he likes to explore and play. He enjoys catching me off guard and wrestling with me. While our fosters have been awesome, we would be so excited to find our forever home. We would love to be adopted together so we could be playmates but if we absolutely need to be separated we understand. If you would be interested in giving us our forever home, here is some information you would need to know: Our adoption fees would be $75 each if adopted separately, but if you would like to keep us together, the adoption fee would be reduced to 50% off to cover a portion of our expenses for the rescue.

Story
Hi! I'm Domino. I'm 8 months old and a Hemingway cat! I have 6 toes on both front paws, which means I'm polydactyl. I got my name because of the big domino circle on my chest and the 6 domino spots on my front paws. I'm one of 5 kittens born to a cat owned by a lady with Alzheimer's. The lady next door took us in to care for us and to prevent my mom from having litter after litter. I'm very friendly with my foster mom, but I'm still skittish around strangers. However, when I realize that you have food for me, I'll be your best friend in no time at all. Don't know yet if I'll be a lap cat, but I do love to be petted. I also enjoy playing with those bouncy feather toys. I am neutered and have had my rabies and distemper shots. I will need to be an indoor cat where I can be safe and live a long, happy life. I am bonded with my brother Figaro, and it would be so good if we could get adopted together. He is also a Hemingway cat!

Story
Hi! I'm Figaro. I'm 8 months old and a Hemingway cat! I have 6 toes on both front paws, which means I'm polydactyl. You can see my fancy paws in all my photos. I'm one of 5 kittens born to a cat owned by a lady with Alzheimer’s. The lady next door took us in to care for us and to prevent my mom from having litter after litter. She named me Figaro after the cat in Pinocchio. I'm very friendly with my foster mom, but I'm still a bit skittish around strangers. However, when I realize that you have food for me, I'll be your best friend in no time at all. Don't know yet if I'll be a lap cat, but I do love to be petted and I purr instantly. I am neutered and have had my rabies and distemper shots. I will need to be an indoor cat where I can be safe and live a long, happy life. I am bonded with my brother Domino that you see in one of my photos. It would be so good if we could get adopted together. He is also a Hemingway cat!

Story
Coley is a sweet one-year-old cat who decided to be our porch kitty a few months ago. What began as a plan to have him neutered and keep him outdoors quickly changed when Coley made it clear that he enjoys the comforts of indoor life! Coley is a loving little guy who’s getting comfortable with petting. He has a special fondness for giving "leg love" and purrs loudly to show his appreciation. Coley absolutely loves playing with our other cats. He enjoys both social play and solo play with toys and scratchers. Coley would thrive in a home that understands the needs of a shy cat and is willing to give him the time he needs to fully trust and bond. If you’re looking for a gentle, playful cat who’s on the brink of becoming your new best friend, here he is! He’s waiting for someone special to show him that he’s safe, loved, and right where he belongs. (If you’re looking for two cats Coley and Theodore are besties.)

Story
This baby is so social...he was born inside and handled since birth. Alvin and his siblings, Simon, Theo, and Cleo are so chill. They would be awesome additions to any family. They are used to cats and dogs!! Alvin is just at 8 weeks and is undergoing his kitten booster shots. He is available for adoption and his neuter is scheduled for end of August/September when is older. We would only adopt Alvin out with a sibling or to a family with another kitty. We give an awesome discount for 2 so you have twice the love. Alvin will thrive best with a play-buddy to help socialize him and grow up knowing how hard to play and interact with other kitties. Kittens learn this from their fur brothers and sisters!! To meet Alvin and his gang please email info@angelstotheanimals.org or Edenlake1@yahoo.com Must be 22 to apply.

Hi, I'm Petunia. I'm probably about 14-16 weeks old and I'm a tortoiseshell kitty. I was living on the streets and I absolutely love, Love, LOVE living inside. I'm a little timid at first but I warm up to people pretty quick. My foster mom say that after I get to know you, I'm just a total love bug. I really like playing with the other kitties in my foster home. I'm not sure if I've meet a dog or kids but I bet I'd like them too - I'm pretty easy going. I have been spayed and up-to-date on my shots. I've been deflead and dewormed! I'm really healthy. I would love to meet you. Do you want to meet me? If you are interested in me, please email info@angelstotheanimals.org for an application and more info!! You must be 22 to apply. Rehoming fee is $135.
