Not good with dogs, Good with cats, House-trained, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Jemma is a lovely 1-2 year old girl who I found under a wood stack in late September 2024. I found her with her litter of two young male kittens (also available for adoption) and took her in to give her a warm place to stay while she was nursing and raising her babies. She is an explorer and loves to look out the window and find new corners of the home to check out. She is friendly and cuddly with all humans but she does not like dogs. She has had two vet check-ups since I took her in and is healthy but was determined to be FIV+ so she would do best in a single home or a home with other FIV+ cats. Please feel free to reach out and consider giving Jemma a forever home. She is ready to settle in and become your best friend!

Story

Spaghetti (1.5yr) is an awesome cat! He is very playful and loves to chase and pounce. I adopted him the day he turned 8 weeks old. At the time, I had a very busy house with lots of activity. The environment was perfect for him. Recently our situation changed, and now it’s just me and Spaghetti. Unfortunately, Spaghetti is not adjusting well. Although he gets attention every day, it’s no comparison to what he had, so he has taken to random surprise attacks (pounce, scratch and bite quickly, and run away) that are drawing blood. I have taken him to the Vet and discussed the situation with her. She feels like this is normal kitty behavior and he needs more interaction. I’m not in a position to give more interaction. I love this cat with all of my heart! I can see how lonely he is, and It breaks my heart. He needs to be in an active house, preferably one that has other pets he can play with as well. He is healthy, well loved, completely up-to-date on his shots, and neutered.

Story

Mittens is being surrendered to our rescue due to too many animals in the home. She is utd on vaccinations & spayed. She is an independent cat, who will snuggle with you occasionally. She might need a little work with litter training, it is intermittent, but it is probably due to the number of cats in the home vs. the number of litter boxes. She is about 3 years old and weighs about 8lbs.
