Story
Two kittens were found abandoned on the side of the road. They were taken to the SPCA, but the shelter did not have the capacity to keep them. They neutered both cats and gave them temperament shots and flea prevention medication. The cats have been kept indoors. They are a little shy at first, but warm up to people fast and are affectionate and friendly.

Story
Nutmeg is a handsome boy who is looking for a special, quiet home where he can gain his confidence and become the kitty we know he is. He is super playful with volunteers and loves treats, just not so much petting and definitely no holding, but we believe he is open to change in the right environment. Do you have a spare window for him to gaze at the birds? Do you have a quiet spot to read a book and allow him the time to know he is safe and loved and he will snuggle next to you? He has been with us for going on 2 years and has made huge strides! We want him to spend the rest of his life with his person/family giving him all the love and attention. We know his home is out there someplace. Nutmeg and his sister Joy both came to us as feral 14 week old kittens who were not ready to be indoors. Their wild side was harder to tame, which it has, but the trust in people has been slow to earn, but once you get it, they both provide love and entertainment. They just need that special home, special family, to give them a chance. Nutmeg is neutered, up to date with vaccines, deworming, flea/tick preventative. He is negative for feline AIDS and leukemia.

Story
Joy loves to play and loves her Churu treats! She must get all the treats lol. She gets along well with other cats and finally is coming around to volunteers to play, which she loves. She is human shy and will take time to warm up, but we know there is a special home out there willing to take on a kitty that just wants to play and explore and learn that people are wonderful! She doesn't want to cuddle, mostly just sleep and demand food and treats. But she is sweet and open and in the right environment we know she can grow the confidence to become the sweetheart she already is! Joy and her brother Nutmeg both came to us as feral 14 week old kittens who were not ready to be indoors. Their wild side was harder to tame, which it has, but the trust in people has been slow to earn, but once you get it, they both provide love and entertainment. They just need that special home, special family, to give them a chance. Joy is spayed, up to date with vaccines, deworming, flea/tick preventative. She is negative for feline AIDS and leukemia.
