Story
Meet Bob! We truly wish we could keep Bob. He has been such a joy in our home. He is a big, gentle boy with the sweetest temperament. Bob is affectionate, loves to purr, and enjoys playtime just as much as curling up beside you. Unfortunately, our first cat has not adjusted well to sharing her space, and for her wellbeing we’ve made the difficult decision to find Bob a new home. Bob has been incredibly gracious with her, and we believe he would do well in a home with other cats. We’re not sure how he is with dogs or children, but given how gentle and easygoing he is, we think he would adapt just fine. Bob is a wonderful cat who deserves a loving forever home. Whoever adopts him will be very lucky to have such a kind, affectionate companion.

Story
Donut is a 6 year old boy who is lively and quirky. He has a high prey drive and likes to play a lot and also loves having access to explore outdoors daily. We are unfortunately needing to rehome him because he is no longer able to go outside in our neighborhood and does not get along with our other kitty. He would do really well in a home with a dog, but doesn’t tend to do well with kids or other cats (unless they are spicy too and then the personality match seems to work well). We just want the best for him and are ideally looking for someone who could let him outdoors regularly and cuddle with him at night!

Story
Meet Gomez (5) and Morticia (4), a bonded pair of gentle, well-mannered cats who have spent the past two years thriving in a loving home. Rescued as strays, they have adapted beautifully to indoor life and are fully litter-box trained. G&M need a new home because their owner passed away. They are both sweet, affectionate cats, and we invite you to learn more about them through their Addams Furmily page: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61581412692795 Gomez and Morticia are strongly bonded and must be adopted together. They would do best in a quiet, loving home where they can continue to feel safe and cherished. Transport to neighboring states may be possible for the right home.

Story
Miss Kitty's Ideal Furever home: no other pets or babies, lots of time for cuddles, access to outdoors. Comes with lifetime microchip, flea medication, cat carrier, litter tray, treats Miss Kitty is an exceptionally affectionate cat! She loves to snuggle & spend hours on the couch on your lap. She is very friendly, confident, intelligent & well-behaved. She enjoys being outside & even walks with us around our neighborhood loop! Her all-white fur prevents her from hunting. She's great with strangers and kids. Miss Kitty is at least 7 years old and has lived in several homes. She came to Durham to live with our neighbor 2 years ago but immediately bonded with me and decided she wanted to live with us instead! She was a delightful companion throughout my pregnancy but she has found it hard to share me with our baby and we have reached the heartbreaking choice to re-home her to ensure she gets the attention she deserves in a forever home. She is a loyal and darling lady!
