Story
Simba is a loving cat who reminds me of the cartoon character Garfield. He love to eat, play, get loved on and a real sweetheart. His owner is moved away and he can’t go with her to college. Please consider this joyful fur ball into your home. He would do better with adults or teenagers too.

Story
Ruby Sue is a super sweet lap kitty. She can be shy at first, but once comfortable is very loving. She purrs a lot, loves to be pet, and will sit on your lap for hours. Unfortunately, one of the other cats in our home is extremely aggressive toward her. It has gotten so bad that Ruby is fearful of moving about the house. This has resulted in many accidents because she is afraid of going in to the litter box with a human by her side. She is so anxious that she no longer plays with toys. She is absolutely miserable right now. Due to the trauma she has experienced, I believe Ruby would do best in a home without other cats. She gets along well with small dogs.

Story
I was found living in a culvert on a bike trail in the dead of winter. A man and his dog saw me daily while they were walking, he told the lady that takes care of the community cats on the bike trail about me and she was able to get me to safety! She is currently fostering me and living in a warm house is where I want to be! I'm very friendly, love to be around all people, love snuggling on a warm blanket and I'm playful but I also love to chill. I'm looking forward to finding my forever home soon. Thank you for considering to adopt me! Love, Ty

Story
Pippin is a very sweet boy who is pretty shy at first but loves to snuggle and play once he warms up to you. He will let you know when he’s ready for bed and loves to cuddle up next to you when it’s time to sleep! Although he’s not very good with dogs and gets pretty scared around them, he is very friendly, loving and playful towards other cats!

Story
In 2019, a month before Halloween, we heard a very young, sweet kitten crying on Beaver Valley Road in Fairborn. We soon realized that several young baby kittens had been thrown out of a vehicle around the block where we live, as a few neighbors found similiar kittens. She even bonded really close with our female labrador, who passed last August. So we do believe that she gets along with other animals, like her other cat buddy we have here that's about nine months younger than her. She is litterbox trained. When she was about four years old, we started noticing that she was anxious when our children were around and began urinating in the kids playroom. We have attempted various remedies to help her, including medicine from Banfield Hospital. We aren't trading our children, though at times it might be a better deal ;-), and it isn't fair to her. We would like to find her a nice, safe, and wonderful family with no kids that she can be well loved in. She's a great cat, albeit for the nerv

This is Murphy. He is 2 years and 9 months old. He is the sweetest little boy and loves to snuggle with dogs and his human friends. Although, he is very timid around other cats. My daughter rescued him and then later discovered that she is allergic to cats and can no longer keep him. He really is the sweetest and deserves a loving home.
