Story
Freya is a very sweet, determined, but temperamental girl. She was originally found nearly abandoned (someone came occasionally to throw food in the front door) in an apartment with another cat. They were alone together often on for about two weeks before discovery. She’s very loyal to the parent. She deans her favorite, but seems to be very nervous around anyone else in the home or new friends although she is generally nice to them. She has never created an issue with children, but likes to stay clear from them at all possibilities. She does well with other cats however she is very, very particular about wanting a clean litter box and will act out if it is not to her standards with that said she may do Best as the only animal in the home. When she warms up, she will make a great companion, very loving, very loyal and loves to cuddle.

Story
I found him under the shed when he was 3 weeks old. I took him to the vet and got him cleaned up and vaccinated. He is affectionate, enjoys sitting next to me. He likes most food except canned paté. He likes to be pet before he eats. He enjoys looking outside. He likes fishing pole toys and enjoys chasing ribbons.

Story
Loki is a cuddle bug who loves to eat and sleep. He loves to play and do parkour off his cat tree. I unfortunately have to rehome him due to my schedule picking up and i want to find him a home that will love him just as much as mine did.

Story
Gryffon is a sweet boy. He loves people and is good with chill dogs. I am moving and will be living with my mom who is allergic. He is on special urinary tract health food (Purina) as he gets crystals in his urine if he doesn't. He loves to lay in your lap but doesn't really like being picked up. His auto-clean litter box, water fountain and food dish will acompany him. I have a female cat that will also be rehomed that he invades her space and they fight. That is the only experience he has with other cats. He may do fine with a non-territorial cat.
