Story
We found Chaos in early December 2025. We simply took him in hoping we would find his original family but to no avail. Since that time we have had him neutered microchipped and caught up on his shots. He gets along well with our small dogs and wants to play with our cat but the feelings are not mutual. Chaos is high energy, loves to play and enjoys being around people. We have tried everything to help our other cat accept Chaos into the mix but it is not happening. When we took chaos to have a neutered the vet said he was just about a year old. Chaos appears to have very strong hunting and prowling skills. Please consider rehoming this sweet boy.

Story
Ghost is the biggest cuddle bug you could ever hope to have in a cat! He gets along great with cats and older kids and has done well with both dogs we have had, big and small. He has not adapted well to having a new baby in the home and this is why we are interested in rehoming.

Millie has been in foster care for a while now. She is 4 years old and very sweet. We havent been able to test her with dogs or cats but with slow proper introductions we believe she will get along. She is owner surrendered and is in foster care right now. We havent had any behaviour problems with her and she is litterbox trained. If you are interested in adoption please fill out the Adopt A Pet application and we will be in touch. We can give you more history on this sweet little girl at that time.

Story
Scarlet is an incredibly social, loving, and rambunctious 11-year-old cat. Unfortunately we have had difficulties with her urinating outside of the litter box which has turned into a health issue for our young children. We’ve tried everything including visiting the vet for scans which found she’s in perfect health other than the beginning of some hip arthritis due to her age. Scarlet would do well in a house where she receives lots of love and attention and doesn’t have to share litter boxes with another cat. She also enjoys being outside, and living in the country where it’s safe for her to spend more time outside might solve her urinating in the house issues. We love her so much and are heartbroken that nothing we’ve tried has worked. Our hope is that someone can give her the attention she needs to solve this issue.
