Story
Pandora and Millie are a special pair – Pandora, barely a year old, got tossed out in a remote area when she was pregnant. She was frightened and stressed, but a trooper to give birth to a sweet tuxedo litter of 5! Caring residents in the neighborhood picked them up – her kittens found a home. She had shut down. We could only touch her on her head and neck. No resistance, no reaction. We added kitten Millie, a sweet, social girl to give her company - and her gentle, sweet personality slowly showed. She learned to play again. Millie is her support! They also have met the resident cats in their foster home with no animosity. Please look at the video clip of them playing! https://youtu.be/gvIG3LRHjMs Both of them have not jet learned to be lap kitties, but will sit next to you and purr. They won’t jump on your counters or laptops and climb up your drapes. Just be sweet company! They need some time to adjust to a new home. We are searching for their angels (hearts) Pandora is estimated 18 - 20 months old, Millie is 5 months old. They both are healthy, spayed, vaccinated, micro chipped, FIV negative and good with the litter box and scratch pad. We are asking for a donation of $100 to help us with some of the vet costs.

Story
I got her at Pet Smart via Nashville Cat Rescue. She is very precious but not cuddly. You can pet her if she is sitting down where you can reach her and she will purr, but she prefers her own space. After a few days when she gets comfortable in your space she will lie on the floor near where you are and act very flirty but if you reach for her there, she will dart away. She likes to be in the room where you are but on her own terms. She is independent and just hangs out other than to eat and use her litter box. She likes the window sill and to watch the outdoor goings on. And she loves my Victorian settee and sits on the many pillows there. That is where she spends most of her time. She will not go onto your bed and she will not be picked up at all. I live in a building so she has no yard here. There is a huge park out front but this is busy West End Avenue. Much too dangerous for her to be an outdoor cat here. A yard would be good. I think she would prefer that.

My parents passed and I have been taking care of their cats. Im moving to my sisters home and she has severe cat allergies and unable to have cats. Walter is a very social cat. He loves being pet and laying next to people. He comes when you call for him and greets everyone who comes to the house. Hes older, ~16, but in great health. I had to remove the apostrophes, the text function was replacing with HTML script.

Story
Waylon is 7 years old. He’s very affectionate and loves humans, he does not however love dogs. We have 3 dogs and he will not warm up to them. Waylon would be perfect for a no pet household, he may do well with other cats, but I think ideally being an only child would be the best life for him.
