Story
Thor came to my house and was starved, appearing as he had been abused. Since then, I have taken him to the veterinarian ensuring his health, update on vaccines, and to have him neutered. He is a very loveable and energetic cat. He loves to run and play chase with his toys. He also loves cuddles, soft blankets and to sleep in your lap while lounging. He loves to follow me around the house and has no interest in going back outside. I have a dog and two other cats. He gets along well with my dog, however does not get along with the other cats very much. I would love to keep him, however he seems not be a good fit for my family. I truly love him and wish him to go to a good home. I know he will make you fall instantly in love as he has with me. He does take some time to warm up and is easily frightened of load sounds/voices. He will require patience and a loving home to help him adjust. I truly believe he would be a wonderful house cat for anyone looking for their next best friend.

Story
Dustin was born in April, 2022 on my property and has lived here ever since. He was mostly an outside cat, but only out of necessity. Recently it has become impossible for the cats to live outside, so he’s been strictly inside the house for a few weeks. He’s so friendly and gentle and loves human interaction. He loves the other cats here and gets along well with my two dogs. I don’t want to see him go, but I know that he would be happier in a home with fewer animals and more human attention. He’s very snuggly, and loves to stay near humans as much as possible. Ideally, I would love to see him adopted into the same home as Nancy and/or Jonathan (they are brothers or cousins), who I am also listing here. I realize though that that might not be possible, and as long as they have happy forever homes, then I’ll be so grateful. Please feel free to email me with questions or to arrange a visit!

Story
Jonathan was born in April, 2022 on my property and has lived here ever since. He was mostly an outside cat, but only out of necessity. Recently all the outside cats have had to be brought inside, so he’s been strictly inside the house for a few weeks. He’s extremely friendly, and loves to sit with me and follow me around the house. He’s gentle and very playful. He loves the other cats here, as well as my two dogs. I hate so much to see him go, but he would be happier in a home with fewer animals and more human attention. Ideally, I would love to see him adopted to the same home as Nancy and/or Dustin, who are also listed.

Story
Well, hello there, dearies! My name is Gracie Mae, and I’m just a sweet ol' lady looking for a cozy spot to spend my golden years. 🌼 You see, I’ve lived a long rocky life, and now all I want is a soft bed, some sunshine to nap in, and a kind soul to share my days with. I LOVE to be brushed and am an expert snuggler. I may be getting up there in age, but don’t let that fool you—I’m still in perfect health! I've been spayed, I’m up to date on all my vaccinations, and I’ve even got a little microchip in me to keep me safe. I promise I don’t ask for much, just a quiet, warm place where I can relax and enjoy my retirement. If you think you could be the one to give me a loving home, I’d be ever so grateful. Let’s spend our days together, shall we? With love and purrs, Gracie Mae 🐾

Esmerelda is a super sweet, friendly adult female. She is a big girl (not just chubby, but tall as well) but don't hold that against her. She is approximately 2 years old and loves to be petted on and loved. She gets along good with other cats, dogs, kids, and never sees a stranger. Ms. Esmerelda has already been spayed and is up-to-date with her vaccinations. Now all she needs is a new home! If you are interested in adopting her, please email bettinav@hotmail.com.
