Story
Spirit is a small, dainty and gentle cat. Her triangular face, large ears, slanted eyes, and aquiline nose give her an exotic look. She came into rescue at only six months old and was already halfway through a pregnancy. She was a diligent mom to three big, healthy kittens, who now have wonderful homes. Spirit isn’t a lap cat, but she does adore being petted and enjoys being carried around – she even likes having her belly stroked! She turned one year old in August and is still only 8 pounds and playful like a kitten. She loves chasing toys, climbing, using her scratch pad, and exploring the house to hunt for bugs. She plays very gently with the senior male cat in her foster home. She is intimidated by cats who play too rough, but she would love to be the companion of a senior cat or a smaller cat or kitten. She’s also completely comfortable with the large, gentle dog in her foster home. And because she enjoys the company of humans, and plays independently much of the time, she would probably be happy as an only cat. November 5, 2024, 8:53 pm

Story
Meet Bayou, a super handsome black and white Tuxedo boy. He's solidly built and super laid back.  He takes his cues from those (both feline and human) he's around. You can pick him up, snuggle him and he rolls with most everything. His foster family shares that he's great with their nine year old child – super cute when they read in bed together every night.  He acquiesces to his female sister Gumbo when it comes to food and play so we know he would do well with another cat in a new home.  He loves the toy balls to bat about and adores the play tube/tunnel. Likes high places and play wrestling with his sister. Does like to use the cat tree for scratching, a very nice habit!  His estimated birth date is July 12, 2024. Cats adopted from TMHPR are indoor only. ##2156880##

Needs experienced adopter, House-trained,
Story
I am looking for an experienced cat owner. Someone that will be patient and loving. He has had 1 owner before me that was a single adult and I am a single adult myself. So he hasn't lived with multiple people or pets, which actually makes him very affectionate. He loves to be pet, groomed and cuddled. I just have a busy lifestyle which keeps me out of the house very often and traveling a lot, and I feel bad about leaving him alone so often.

Story
Meet Smudge--she may be small, but she has a big personality! She is 7 years old, weighs about 9lbs, and has striking green eyes. Sheâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s a huge fan of string and ribbon and will chase them for hours if you have the time and energy to match her enthusiasm! Sheâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s an affectionate companion who adores people but prefers to rule over your household as the only feline overlord. Her shots are all up to date (even though she didnâ&#194&#128&#194&#153t appreciate getting them) and sheâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s spayed as well as microchipped. Smudge loves to be played with, and she is also quite the cuddle bug (on her terms) and will happily sit in a lap all day if you let her. Children old enough to know not to pull on tails or corner an animal are her favorite playmates, she matches well with their abundance of energy and likes to meow back in conversation to their babble and chatter. If you are someone who has company over frequently, she rather enjoys meeting new people. She has a fun little quirk where she bucks up to receive pets and it tends to be a hit with guests. Smudge is nervous and anxious around other cats and would prefer not to live with the feline kind. We are unsure how she would be in a house with dogs. She has been around small dogs in the past with no issue and simply avoided (though it did increase her anxiety) the larger dogs we briefly pet-sat. She is litterbox trained and will only do her business in the litterbox youâ&#194&#128&#194&#153ve designated, there have never been any accidents in the house. Before her anxiety around other cats manifested, she would play fetch with her toys, and bring them to us when she wanted to play. Ideally, her new home would only have one four-legged occupant to help ease her anxiety. She may not be a fan of other cats but the affection she displays for human companions is equal to any two cats that Iâ&#194&#128&#194&#153ve met! We personally would love to keep her but due to her ever-increasing anxiety about the other cats in our home we have to keep her separated from them and by extension us. This situation is not tenable as it leaves her depressed and lonely as she is very sociable when it comes to people and loves to interact with her human companions. To sum things up, Smudge is a cute, cuddly, and social (with humans) cat who would make an excellent addition to your household. Sheâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s great with older kids and loves to play so if youâ&#194&#128&#194&#153re looking for a house-trained cat with a big personality, sheâ&#194&#128&#194&#153s the four-legged friend youâ&#194&#128&#194&#153ve been waiting for!

Story
Kitty III is a super-senior, 14-year-old purr-machine looking for a chill home to match his low-key, gentle personality. If you're looking for a sweet, independent, older fella who loves chin scratches, napping in cozy soft spots, looking out windows, and curling up in your lap for some cuddles, Kitty is the guy for you. Kitty may be an old-timer, but don't let it fool you: pull out his favorite wand toys and he'll show you he still has those big jumps and quick moves in him. While Kitty does do well around children, he would thrive in a home with older kids or adults that match his laid-back personality. Kitty is the perfect addition to a home looking for a chill cat. Kitty is litter trained, declawed on his front paws, and is FIV+ which comes with a lot of misconceptions. FIV+ means Kitty has a weaker immune system compared to cats without the disease. FIV+ cats deserve to live a happy life full of love!

Story
We found this cutie outside of my work living in an old bus. We decided to take her in and try to find her a home. Unfortunately we can’t keep her due to our living situation. She was taken to the vet and is healthy and has all her shots. She’s a very sweet girl who deserves a loving home. Blair loves fluffy blankets, butt pats and cuddle time. :)
