Chandler is a great cat! He is very friendly to all people and other cats. He loves to be social and curl up on the couch with you and is quick to purr! He was adopted with his brother, Joey (black cat pictured) from a friend who had a litter of kittens and needed a home, but I am now on military orders and cannot bring them with me. They need a loving home and will brighten up any family!

Joey is so great! He loves to snuggle up and purr with you and will do his best to carry a conversation :) He is very social and gets along with anyone including other cats, kids, and adults (has never lived with a dog). He and his brother (Chandler, patterned cat in photos) were adopted from a friend who had a litter 2 years ago. They are great cats, but I am going on military orders and can no longer take them with me. They need a loving home and will brighten any family!

This is Clothespin! She found me and followed me home one day while I was doing laundry which is how she acquired her name. She is spayed and has only had her rabies shot. She is the most relaxed laid back cat ever and is only needy of cuddles and pets.

Story
Skye Female, DSH, solid gray with white dot on chest, 2-3 years old, 9 lbs Would prefer to be an only cat, older children only, not dog tested Skye so desperately wants to love and be loved but needs to adjust to home life after being on her own, probably since kittenhood. She was found living under a house near a dangerously busy intersection. We believe she recently had a litter of kittens but they were nowhere to be found. She is timid and skittish but will rub against your legs and lean in for cheek rubs! She currently spends most of the day under the bed or couch but will come out late in the evening for some affection and treats! She is definitely nocturnal but will spend much of the night sleeping with her foster mom. Skye loves to be pet and will come when called only with proper motivation, like treats! She is food-motivated and loves catnip! She does not like to be held, but oddly, does not run when her foster mom tries to pick her up! Skye will need a cat savvy family with plenty of patience to work with a cat who has probably been on her own all her life. She has only been in rescue a short time so is still getting acclimated to home life. Her foster mom is convinced that, with time, she will become a wonderful, loving and loyal companion! Adoption fee of $110 covers all vetting including spay/neuter surgery, vaccines, microchip, FIV/FELV test and any other medical that may be required while in rescue.

Story
Hi there! My name is Olivia-Kate and I am looking for a new loving home. I am 7 years old, and will be turning 8 years old in July 2025. I spent most of my life not around children or other animals and will need a home that doesn’t have either. I was a rescue cat so I am shy around new people and prefer to spend most of my day sleeping by myself. I would do best in a home where someone could make me their only pet and give me all the attention I desire. I have a lot of love to give and love sitting on your lap for pets. I am petite, have a beautiful gray/white coat, and a big heart. I am healthy, have been spayed, and have been well cared. I am declawed and house trained so I cannot be an outside cat.

Story
Boob is a quiet, but also kind of has wild tendencies about her. She loves the outdoors. I think she would benefit from someone with a large outdoor area maybe even a barn she’s used to being inside, but she’ll stare out the windows all day she’ll go outside, maybe once a week she’s not getting along with the other cats at the house but that’s because one of the cats was picking on her and it kind of made her defensive. She loves cuddling and loves attention and encouragement and comfort so she’s kind of wild and also a baby at the same time. She is adorable and unique but she will definitely need space and time to heal from being defensive from the other cats.

This is Poppy! A lovely, sweet, and beautiful guy. He loves to be doted on and might be skittish at first but once he gets to know you he’s very sociable. He loves cuddles and treats anytime of the day. He has lived with a dog and another cat, he’s very vocal and I always like to joke that he has full conversations! He is around 6 months old and I hope he can find an amazing new home for him to feel safe!

Story
Prim was a stray that showed up to our house and never left. She has lived inside ever since but does occasionally like to sit on the porch. My other two cats that I have had for years prior to Prim have never adjusted to her and they are awful to her. Cats fights all the time and Prim cowering or hiding most of the time. We have tried everything and have consulted our vet multiple times, too. She is a loving girl and likes to be near people and sleeps with my son every night. We have tried to make this work for over a year and just when we think it’s getting better, it gets worse. We need to find her a loving, non-cat home asap.
