Story
Sweet, very playful, and constantly purring. Never scratches or bites. Loves being brushed. Born May 2018. She's very communicative and intelligent, soft, loves sleeping in baskets and sunspots. Likes a scheduled, simple life with a consistent bedtime and meals. Obsessed with munching grass in the yard (we used a leash). Hates mess and clutter, prefers very clean environment. Big personality. We adopted Pumpkin (our "Baby Girl") in 2019 after she was returned twice to the shelter by other families. she struggles to use the litter box correctly when stressed and needs a very clean and consistent environment, and access to outside regularly, which we're unable to provide. She pees on the carpet, but shows guilt. Would be a great indoor/outdoor cat, but our situation doesn't allow for that currently. I believe she just needs the right environment and she'll do fine, we just can't give it to her. She's a very special cat and I'm heartbroken to lose such a sweet and kind friend.

Story
Mike may have one less eye than most kitties, but that doesn’t slow him down one bit! He’s about a year old and FULL of energy. In another life this little 1 year old fella must have been a football player, because he loves to sprint across the house like he’s going for a touchdown or tackle a dog five times his size! Don’t let his rough and tumble play fool you though, he’s an undercover lover boy who gives kisses, cuddles, and asks to be picked up (when he’s resting from the metaphorical football practice). He gets along best with playful pups, or an equally spirited cat. Only reason for urgent rehoming is the owner has health issues preventing them from giving the care he deserves. Please consider adding this silly boy to your crew, there’ll never be a dull moment!

This handsome boy is Buster. He is a grade A snuggle bug who loves to be under a blanket. He's a big hunk of love, once he has adjusted to things.

Now he is with us, that is a lot of changes in a few short months. Buster is now looking for a soft place to land and a kind person to love him.

I adopted Baby last year in August ‘23, he is a year old now, weighs 13lbs, and gives the best snuggles. Baby loves to suck on blankets and all things soft! He loves to play, and wrestle with other cats, and is a pure ball of love and energy!
