Story
We adopted Willow as a three week old kitten. Someone had thrown her in the trash and we rescued her and have had her as apart of our home for 9 years. My wife has went through serious health issues over the past three years and due that we are having to re home her, as my wife can’t have cat dander in the house. Willow is declawed, spunky but yet very sweet at times and will cuddle. We hope that the person adopting her will be her forever home.

Story
Link is 5 years old and I have had him since he was a kitten. He is one of the sweetest cats you will ever meet. He is not shy around strangers and will go right up to you and sit on your lap if you let him. If you feel like cuddling, just call him over and he will happily sit on your lap! He is very affectionate as well as very energetic! He loves being pet and chasing toys. He loves doing "cat-acro" where I put him on my feet and he hangs out in the air! I am rehoming him only because I am about to be traveling full-time and unfortunately just won't be able to care for him.

Story
Gigi- 5 years old short hair black cat (spayed). No known health concerns. I rescued her from a Florida dumpster. That's right, a genuine Florida dumpster baby. Right now she is indoor/outdoor (backyard) and loves pets and affection on her terms. She drools when she snuggles and is a master biscuit maker. Also don't mind her snoring– they don't make mini c-pap machines for cats yet. She tolerates dogs from afar and obviously does not like babies. She may do okay with older children that understand boundaries. We are rehoming due to incompatibility with our 6 month old and have exhausted all of our other options.

Blanche-3 years old short hair black and white bi-colored cat (spayed). No known health concerns. rescued this little angel baby from a boxcar on the NC coast. She is an indoor cat and doesn't like to be outdoors by herself. She is very affectionate and loves all kinds of scratches, pets and snuggles. Blanche too has become quite the biscuit chef. She tolerates dogs from afar and really does not like babies. She does walk up to older kids looking for pets and snuggles as long as they are gentle. We are rehoming due to incompatibility with our 6 month old and have exhausted all of our other options.

Story
Gorgeous gray tuxedo kitty with beautiful green eyes. A great addition to any home! Macy Gray is a cat whisperer: fellow kitties are magically attracted to her soothing personality and Macy easily befriends cats of all ages. She is a purr happy lap kitty. Would be perfect as a add-on kitty for a loving home with a resident kitty in need of companionship.

Story
Make room in your lap, here I come! My name is Minou (French for "kitty") or Minnie for short. I am the quintessential kitten. I give everything the perfect kitten can provide. Unending love and kisses for my people. Everlasting lap visits, complete with non-stop purring! I love to play with you, with crinkly paper or toys. I will follow you everywhere and snuggle under your covers at night if you like. I know how to sleep quietly in another room if you prefer. During the day I am a gravity-defying center of energy except when snoozing between your legs or on your shoulder. I am learning not to leap onto the counters at a single bound, but I am very capable of this super-kitty feat! Curiosity is my middle name. I explore and play-hunt. I am fearless and alert, smart, nimble and strong. I will be your ever-faithful fun companion. Wouldn't you like to meet me?
