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
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
Meet Tiny – The Sweetest Calico You’ll Ever Meet! Tiny is a 4–5-year-old American Shorthair calico with a heart as big as her name is small. She’s incredibly affectionate and adores snuggling up with her favorite humans. Tiny is the perfect companion for families, as she loves children, strangers, and other cats alike. Her gentle nature ensures she would never bite or scratch, even when kids get a bit too enthusiastic. She’s also wonderfully goofy and entertaining, bringing joy and laughter to every room she graces. Tiny is in perfect health and is up to date on her veterinary care. We’re heartbroken to part with her, but due to an upcoming move and the need to downsize to a single-cat household, we’re looking for a loving home where she can be cherished as much as she deserves. If you’re looking for a sweet, snuggly, and gentle cat to bring warmth and happiness to your home, Tiny is the perfect choice. Please reach out if you’d like to meet her!

Story
Hello! My cat Zion is needing to be adopted because we have a baby who is severely allergic. It breaks our hearts to have to surrender him, but it helps to know he's going to a loving home. Zion is such a character. We suspect he was originally raised around dogs because he knows how to sit, give paw, and twirl. He loves treats and endless human interaction. He may be an older cat, but his heart is young. His heart also extends to his brother Kairo since they're a bonded pair. If adopted, all pet supplies are included (which includes about six months worth of food, toys, and accessories). Kairo's profile: https://www.adoptapet.com/pet/41573805-corinth-texas-cat

Story
My name is Luna, and I'm a chunky cat with a mustache! I am 4 years old. I've always been an indoor cat. I can be very standoffish and shy at first, but once I'm comfortable, I will LOVE to cuddle and play with you. The ideal home for me would be a calm, quiet home with no other cats/dogs. I get very scared when around chaos or other animals, so I may run and hide for a while.
