Story
Piper was found in a parking lot located on loop 323. We posted her on lost animal websites and searched for missing kittens. When nobody claimed her, we took her to the vet and had her spayed and all her vaccinations. She is playful and loving. She is very friendly. She is super smart and inquisitive. She loves human interaction. We already have several pets of our own including a small dog that she is fine with or we would keep her. We do not know how she would do with other dogs. She is great with other cats. We just want her to get a good indoor forever home. Indoor only, vet reference, no declawing, regular vet care as needed, signed agreement, and updates on adjustment progress are required for adoption.

Story
Bob was found wandering by 346 near Whitehouse high school. When nobody claimed him, we got him his shots and had him neutered. He is so cuddly, loving, and friendly. He loves people. He is playful and full of personality. He loves human interaction. He is the biggest love bug ever. He gets along with one of our cats but he fights with the fosters. He would be fine if he was the only pet. He definitely needs time to adjust to new animals. He does okay with our small dog but not sure how he’d do with big dogs. He probably needs to be an only pet or only have one friend. A meet and greet would definitely be needed with him. We would keep him if we did not already have several pets. We just want him to get a good indoor forever home. Indoor only, vet reference, no declawing, regular vet care as needed, signed agreement & updates on adjustment progress are required for adoption.

Story
Wilbur was a rescued kitten along with 5 siblings & his mom. They were living under a storage shed in terrible conditions. They were all starving & needed immediate vet care. We got them all vet care, shots, and fixed. We fostered them & have found homes for his mom & four of his siblings. It would be ideal to adopt Sophie & Wilbur together but not required. We would keep them if we could. Wilbur was the runt of the litter. He is the kindest sweetest gentlest most affectionate baby ever. When we rescued him it took us a week longer to rescue his mom. When we finally brought her to her babies she was so scared. Wilbur went up to her & kissed her nose & loved on her and calmed her down. He is kind, smart, playful, loving, and cuddly. Indoor only, vet reference, no declawing, regular vet care as needed, signed agreement & updates on adjustment progress are required for adoption.

Story
Jenny is one of two babies born to our neighborhood stray, Florence. Jenny was born in early April 2024. She, her brother Gus, and Momma (Florence) were running around our busy neighborhood. We were finally able to capture them and get them fixed, vaccinated, wormed, and microchipped. Jenny is not as acclimated to people as her brother Gus, however she is treat and food motivated. Once she knows she can trust you, she is sweet and affectionate. Jenny will need an experienced cat owner. The person who adopts Jenny will have to put some patience and effort in up front, but the rewarding bond will be more than worth it.

Story
Florence is the mother of seven babies born to our neighborhood. Her first litter, Gus and Jenny, were born in early April 2024. Momma (Florence), Gus and Jenny were running around our busy neighborhood. We were finally able to capture them and get them fixed, vaccinated, wormed, and microchipped, but unfortunately not before Florence had her second litter of 5 (also available for adoption) born on 9/12/2024. She is scheduled to be spayed and microchipped on 11/23/2024. Florence is loving, affectionate, and sweet. She is an excellent mother but she has not yet been able to be a kitten herself because she started having babies before she was even 6 months old. The family who adopts Florence will be blessed with a loyal and affectionate friend for life. Indoor only, vet reference, no declawing, regular vet care as needed, signed agreement, and updates on adjustment progress are required for adoption.

Story
Alphonse "Al" is estimated 4-6mos old, rescued from a stray mother in my neighborhood. He is a certified love-bug, he never stops purring and absolutely loves being with people. He settled into domesticated life immediately, all he wants is to be petted and rub his face on your face. He is discovering his playful side and recently found his voice. He is a typical orange boy who just wants to be loved on and played with. So far he appears to be a velcro-kitty, he would need someone who enjoys their personal space being invaded constantly and had plenty of time to give him the attention he craves. We believe he may enjoy car rides if they are kept up. Indoor only, vet reference, no declawing, regular vet care as needed, signed agreement, and updates on adjustment progress are required for adoption. Fee will be donated to Petsmart evidence provided to adopter of donation.

Story
Hamlet is a 6yo, male, orange and white cat. He is UTD on his shots, neutered, and maybe microchiped. I don't remember. He is a little bit of a chonk. Hamlet definitely loves attention and scratches. He has even been known to drool a time or two. Hamlet likes to give "love nibbles" that can turn into a love bite if you're not paying attention. He has been raised around other cats, small dogs, and big dogs. Hamlet has occasionally braved the company of canines to get attention. He has always been a house cat and would make a very affectionate addition to any home.

Story
I got Twister from the Humane Society at Cedar Creek a year and a half ago as a kitten. He lives up to his name. Is very fun loving and mischievous. He loves trying to hide. (In my drawers, bags, or boxes) The last two pictures show him doing this. In the last one he had pulled out the water bottles from their packaging so he could get in the package and go to sleep. Twister is alot of fun. Never a dull moment.
