Story
The final of our fire wood babies settling in. They’re slowly acclimating to people but having caught them a day later it’s only been a couple days. They’re already not running just from me being in the room and warming up to the idea of pets. As with all the other babies if you end up wanting more than one there’s only one adoption fee. I have zero doubt they’ll end up fine in a house with multiple pets or children

Or, how about these American Shorthairs in cities near Shelbyville, Tennessee

These American Shorthairs are available for adoption close to Shelbyville, Tennessee.

Story
Bubby is the gray and white and Mr. Dowd is the Orange and white. We voluntarily fostered these sweet babies - they are 2 of a litter of 4. We adopted out their siblings. We found them on our farm at around 3-4 weeks old and we bottle fed them. They are right at 11 months old because we have not been able to find a home from social media postings. When I tell you these are two of the sweetest cats I’ve ever been around, I am not kidding. They are so lovable, cuddly, and wonderful with my small children. (Ages 4-8) we would absolutely keep them, but we already have 5 cats. 😓 I would love for them to be adopted together, but if I have to separate I can. The picture of them sleeping in the bed is how they are all the time when they are not playing! If you are looking for a cat or cats, and you are a dedicated cat person and animal lover who will not drop them at a shelter if they become too much, then please message me. Serious inquiries only!! Thank you! 🐈

Story
Had Calvin since he was a kitten when I adopted him from a PetSmart. He is such a good kitty! He is so faithful to his litter box and enjoys playtime and sitting on my lap or near me. He does not particularly like to be held but he does want attention. I have to move and the policy is no cats. I also work long hours and cannot give him the attention he deserves. If you are looking for a low maintenance cat that always uses his litter box, then Calvin is for you! You can have his litter box (only a month old), his toys, cat carrier, nail clippers, hair brush, and scratching posts. I will take him to vet before you adopt him to get shots updated and a clean bill of health. :)

Story
UPDATE: Dozer needs a totally secure outdoor home that has heating and air where he can go in during the winters and summers. He is very friendly. . He may or may not be a mouser. Due to unresolved and occasional bouts with diarrhea, he would not be accepted in most homes. Please help!! I will work out something with you.....................🐾♦🐈‍⬛♦This wiggly, lovey boy is almost impossible to photograph. "Dozer" is just a little over 2 years old and needs a home 🐾♦🐈‍⬛♦ . He is completely vetted, microchipped and is such a little love booger. He does have digestive issues and needs a special diet. If you can take him, this would greatly help our rescue. He was taken from a real bad case and apparently it did something to his digestive tract. A person who is patient will love him regardless. I sure hope this person is YOU.

THANK YOU FOR READING THE STORY OF THIS KITTEN IN FULL : This kitten came from a set that could of been doomed from a shelter for being a bit too "feral". I did not know they were that old or wild, but by the time I broke them free, one cannot return saved animals back to a shelter !! I have been working on them to get them as friendly as possible. Please, I would love an experienced adopter to show them the good life. All this baby needs is more love, patience, massages and "bribery" and will make you a good new friend. If you adopt, I can save more. If no one adopts this set, I have to stop intake completely as I am but one person doing everything. Thank you for reading. Included in your rescue adoption is full microchip service, has all 3 booster shots, rabies, flea meds, dewormed . JUST NEEDS A GOOD INDOOR HOME and YOU !!!!
