Booty was a kitten from a litter at our house. I named him Booty because all four paws have white on them. Very sweet cat.

Story
I am heartbroken to have to rehome him. I got him 3 years ago as a kitten, but he started attacking my other cat on and off a year and a half ago and reintroducing them isn't working anymore. He's such a sweet, albeit timid cat. He's never been around dogs or kids but with how shy he is im not sure he would thrive in that environment. He's not super affectionate but will snuggle up when you're sleeping. He loves watching out the windows and sleeping in cardboard boxes. He's just an overall easy going cat. Never had any health issues, his rabies shot is 1yr out of date but his FVRCP is good for another year.

Story
Meet “Tails,” a charming and friendly cat looking for a loving new home. Tails was rescued as a kitten after a tough start in life; his tail was attacked, leaving him with his unique, adorable look—and his name! He has a warm, gentle nature and enjoys being around people. Tails is litter-trained and doesn’t scratch furniture, making him an easy companion. We’re heartbroken to rehome him, but with a new baby on the way, we feel it’s best to find him a home where he’ll get the time and attention he deserves. If you’re looking for a friendly, well-behaved cat to welcome into your life, Tails is the perfect choice!

Story
Kitten showed up along with 2 others about 2 months ago.. she is female.. very pretty and very friendly.. gorgeous orange eyes... Would absolutely love to bring her in but can not... One other kitten I found home for.. and other one is male. I need a home for as I do not want her to get pregnant... No idea if someone dropped them or were just born in the area.. she is a sweet and very playful kitten and loves her toy... She stays out on my deck but it is gonna be getting cold soon. I have been calling her Gracie but doesn't recognize name.. not sure I like it either. Just really want her to be adopted and loved.. I really love her by now and just want her to be safe. Free to good home.. I can give you a nice cat carrier.. a toy.. a bowl.. some food.. really loves wet and eats some moistened dry

Story
Penelope came to us as a dump one morning that we found after a rainy day :( She was found by our sign with a small puddle of water at the bottom of a box with two other kittens. It took no time for us to see that she was pregnant but had a rotting tail. We had to wait for her to have her sweet kittens, which happened within days, before we could address her tail. All of her kittens have long been adopted and she still waits for her forever family. She does have a little stub of tail BUT it makes it that much better when you see that little butt wiggle with content. Penelope has been spayed and is looking for her forever home! The adoption fee includes age appropriate vaccinations and wormings, spay or neuter surgery, Frontline application, collar, ID tag and a cardboard pet taxi. Shelter hours are Tuesday to Friday from 11 am to 4 pm and the first and third Saturday from 10 am to 1 pm. Call 803-536-3918 for more information or email at: adopt@orangeburgspca.orgOctober 26, 2024, 2:55 am

Story
We moved into a home a year and a half ago that came with an adult female that had kittens. Fast forward to now and they have been living in our home for over a year now. We keep bird feeders so I don’t like feeding outdoor cats, so the inside part is non negotiable around here. We have other cats that moved with us and one is a male that really doesn’t like Cookie Jr. (she looks just like her mom). Cookie Jr. is not an assertive cat and displays a very timid personality. We rarely see her as she’s usually hiding somewhere and we don’t think she is flourishing as well as she could as a member of our home. She is allergic to fleas and will groom compulsively if she gets them but we keep her monthly flea medicine application up to date. She is sweet and likes to cuddle but we’re afraid the male has gotten her a few good times when we weren’t home and now she stays under the couch 90% of the time. Going through the pictures is sad, she used to be so content here.
