Story
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!

Story
Moosh is 3-4 years old. He was found on the side of the street when he was younger. He is an extremely affectionate cat, and can sometimes be quite demanding about it. He loves people and interacting with new people. There is need for time to get to used to new people, he loves everybody. From what we have experienced, he is very passive and has no problem with other cats, however he has never been with a dog. He’s hilarious, adorable, affectionate, and sometimes a little aloof.

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!

Story
This sweet guy showed up in the tree by our deck. He was immediately friendly, loving, and charming. It was obvious that he was a house cat (he was terrified of being outside) and has had a lot of attention. He loves to be held like a baby and pulls your face down for kisses. He is very talkative and enjoys carrying on a conversation with anyone who will listen and loves being a lap cat (His preferred place for a nap). He also still plays like a kitten. He enjoys chasing nerf balls, laser pointers, and almost any type of cat toy. He really needs to be an only cat. He is great with our kitten, but fights with our adult girl cats. He would also do well with a family that has older kids who can play with him to help curb his high and fun energy. We have searched and searched for his owners to no avail. We are not sure why, but we think that he was possibly abandoned.
