Story
This sweet, young, anxious cat was rescued in 2019 as a kitten and has been an extremely loving companion, especially to a family dog and another cat. We've learned, however, that she's developed severe anxiety around children and began marking in the children playroom -only their playroom. Though we've tried various options and worked with Banfield Clinic, no solution has been found. Ergo, our family is looking for a wonderful new home for her with adults only, where she can feel safe, loved, and flourish without the stress of children. She is litterbox trained and gets along with other animals, especially dogs. Cats she takes a little bit to get warmed up to. This baby is a vert soft, sweet, and cute little girl that we wish for her to have a great forever home where she isn't worried and fearful. Please help us with this aspiration.

Hi! My name is Simba 😺 I am about 4 months old. I love to play, run around and watch birds and chipmunks on cat tv. I am a very loving and sweet boy. Sometimes I cuddle on my mom's lap and take naps.

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
Twyla (gray) and Alexis (brown) are littermates born to a stray on July 30, 2022. Both girls are spayed, healthy, and well-mannered Twyla is very lovable and likes to lay right on top of you, preferably the shoulder/chest area. She'll sleep on your pillow next to your head, and she purrs constantly. She likes to find a good hiding spot and will open doors, drawers, cabinets, and boxes to get in and nap. She makes funny faces and sometimes gets in a playful mood. Alexis is very quiet and mellow. She minds her business and likes to be nearby but not on top of you. She's fine being picked up and held. She's very friendly and enjoys a good pet but doesn't really go out of her way to bother anyone. She will sit and stare at you with her huge eyes. If you lose your phone, it's probably because she's incubating it They'd like to stay together since they are close and have been together since the womb

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.
