Story
Hi! This is nalo! Nalo got rehomed to me August 3rd after his previous owners were no longer able to keep him. He was previously a stray but his previous owners and vet suspect he is around 2 years old. He loves to make biscuits, play fight, bite your feet through blankets, and play chase! He is the sweetest kitty however he does not get along with other cats. His previous owner said he got along with cats in short periods but for me, he stalks my cats and chases them around the house, which is the reason I am no longer keeping him. He has total only child energy so a home with no cats is ideal! I do not have dogs however his previous owners said he is totally fine with them. I was also told he was totally okay with children. He’s such a love bug, he just needs a home where he can be the center of your attention! I can give toys, scratch posts, a food bowl, and a litter box to whoever is able to take him.

Story
Ash has had at least 3 litters of Kittens and had her last kittens in July. She was at a home that didn't feed her regularly and never planned on getting her spayed. I took Mom and Kittens to have her spayed and rehome her and her Kittens. I would keep them myself, but I have Stage 4 Cancer and live with my sister who has 3 dogs and is highly allergic to cats. I currently have Ash in one room in order to keep her safe from the dogs and away from my sister who was kind to even let me take them into her home. This a Momma cat is a wonderful, happy, now healthy, very affectionate cat, who is a wonderful Mom but she is getting spayed on October 16 and so I will keep her through then and a couple weeks so I know she is completely healed. My hope for her is to find a loving and caring 4ever home with pet parents who will care for her and adore her like she deserves.

Story
Originally adopted from the Wake SPCA in 2022, Sable has been a fearless daredevil from the start! After only a couple days being adopted as a three-month-old kitten, Sable was practically best buddies with her dog sister who was at least double her size! While Sable doesn’t like being outside in a fenced in backyard (and closely monitored), she LOVES exploring in the garage, if you let her out there. And, considering her best friend is of the K-9 breed, who said cats and dogs had to be enemies? Unfortunately, Sable does not get along with other cats as well. She loves all humans, but would truly thrive in a one-cat household (and a slow introduction to a new dog best friend)!

Story
Kaiser is a loving boy who enjoys cuddling. He was born on a farm in Massachusetts and adopted to our family as a kitten. He has lived with our family for 11 years. Kaiser has had cat and dog siblings, and sweetly welcomed our baby girl. He is a bit shy and may hide, but will come out when he is comfortable. He does best in a quieter home. We love him dearly, but my allergies have worsened substantially. We are hopeful of finding him a loving home.

Story
Wonderful cat but, we have been told by our apartment that we can only have 2 pets. I'm trying my hardest to rehome him and not take him to Wake County Animal Shelter. 5 year old Zeus is an extremely easy-going, indoor only guy. I don't know if he would survive outside lol. Very sweet and affectionate, purrs very loudly, loves his treats! Has been neutered. Does have a microchip.
