Story
Miles is a chonky cuddler who loves to eat and play! I adopted him over three years ago from a family in Washington state. He is about 11 years old. Vet has told me he is in good health and I have not noticed anything wrong physically. I am working all the time and about to move again, and I don’t want to put him through all that. I would rather him be with a family that will spend time playing with him. He would do best in a home with no dogs unless they are well behaved and chill. He can get used to dogs it just takes a long time. I do not know his behavior around other cats. Overall Miles is extremely chill, but when he is hungry or wants you to pick him up he will definitely let you know.

Story
Rashita is a rescued cat from the shelter, we got her 7 years ago. She was very scared when we got her as a kitten she was a strayed cat before getting to the shelter . At only 8 weeks old we adopted her and has been with us since we are the only family she knows or has been. Although she’s is very scared of the outdoors she loves to peak her head out to watch the birds chirp in the mornings . We have a dog that is 12 now and their relationship hasn’t been the best. Rashita has her own room with her litter and food all to her self she’s very to her self doesn’t like people hides when we have visitor. Her only major problem is . She pees on beds sofa and anything she finds on the floor from time to time. I attribute this to anxiety or anger towards to dog or whenever she misses a bit of food or water. Never goes a day without eating and pees in her litter daily . We don’t know what else to do. Maybe is the dog the kids or us she doesn’t like n would enjoy a solo family instead.

Story
Nickey was found by a friend on the street as a baby. After nearly 5 years this friend was overwhelmed by some big life changes and could not care for the cat anymore anymore. I adopted him in 2022, but recently moved to a much smaller room long-term with other roommates who do not want a cat in the house. Nickey is not able to roam and is confined to a very small room, where he does not have the comfort he needs to thrive. He usually had lots of room to run around and play- otherwise he gets angsy. He would be most comfortable in a home where he has free roam, cat tower and scratching posts. He had lived with multiple cats and dogs before and can get along with new people easily. After so much change and restriction in his life, he really just needs a consistent forever home where he will feel free and loved the rest of his years.

Story
Valentine is an affectionate and playful cat who attaches strongly to specific people. While she is shy and nervous around new people, once she trusts you, she will want to cuddle and play with you as much as possible. She has been a member of our family for about 7 years, but our son has developed an allergy to cats that makes it no longer possible for us to keep her. We are looking for a warm and loving home for our warm and loving cat.

Story
Lucy and Ethel are litter mates that I rescued 10 years ago when they were kittens. They lived outdoors and weren’t well cared for. They are super sweet cats and I truly hate the thought of rehoming them. However, as I age my allergies for pet dander has gotten extremely worse, intolerable. I started doing allergy shots and have gotten no relief. My physical health is suffering and they sure need and deserve all the love, cuddles, and pets. They still have their claws and are strictly indoor cats. They have to stay together! They typically hide when a visitor comes. They tolerate my grandkids but are used to a quiet home with no other pets. Ethel has to be on rx dry food diet from two prior issues with bladder stones. I’m so concerned about finding a loving home, that I will continue to provide at my expense, the rx food just for peace of mind and her care. They are not on any medications. I have the paperwork on all their up to date shots and microchipping.
