Story
Apollo is a sweet three-legged male kitty with the best snuggles you could ask for! He is currently in a home with young children and is very anxious and not doing well around them. Our heart is to find a loving stress free home for him- without children. He loved to play with string toys, is shy at first but once he warms up to you loves a good chin scratch (especially on the side he doesn’t have a leg), and is a lap kitty when he feels comfortable and safe.

Story
I've had the joy of raising this adorable little guy since he was born, and while it breaks my heart to consider rehoming him, we're unable to give him the love and attention he truly deserves. This affectionate 3-year-old, born in April, is a sweet and trusting companion. Once he warms up to you, he'll happily let you hold him and enjoy your company. He loves attention, and occasionally enjoys a brief adventure outside, always returning within 10-15 minutes. He even likes to play fetch from time to time! If you're looking for a loving and playful feline friend, he could be the perfect addition to your home.

Story
Cricket is approximately 1 to 1.5 years old. We found him roaming our neighborhood on our night cameras outside. It was the middle of summer and he was looking worse and worse trying to get through the heat. It took us a few weeks or so to get him to trust us. When we finally brought him inside, he was underweight and badly beaten up by another cat. He was afraid of everything at first. We've had him now for two months and he is fully healthy, happy, playful and very affectionate. He loves to give kisses. He has some separation anxiety that will likely go away once he is with a forever family. He is obsessed with food (understandably) but that means you cannot just leave too much food out for him. He is very resilient and has an easy temperament. He gets along with our cats and dog but needs someone who can give him all the attention he needs. We already have four pets with special needs--leaving little time for Cricket. He needs to be an indoor-only cat unless he goes out on a leash.

Story
Richard is a very spicy boy who can be bitey, but also loves to cuddle. He likes to play, but would do amazing in a single cat household or maybe with a female cat. We were told by the person who gave him to us that he was a female cat, but later found out when we took him to be neutered that he was indeed a male. We have an older male cat that has been with me for 8 years and they still do not get along after a little over 2 years together and it causes too much stress for both of them. Richard had to go to the ER for his kidneys and there’s potential the same problem could occur so that’s the reason for my rehoming him - I believe he would be happier and less stressed in a single cat household where he gets all of the cuddles and play time. He loves to eat and is a goofy boy, but unfortunately he’s just too aggressive with my older cat. He also loves to be outside. He’s only been around 2 dogs before and he was very curious.
