Story
Adopted Vader from the Tacoma Humane Society around 2017. He is about 8 or 9 years old. Timid and shy cat, but he will learn to trust and admire you over time. Will always be nearby. He loves feathery toys, fake mice (especially the ones that squeak), and any toy that he can try to catch in the air. He likes having treats tossed at him, and will try to catch them with his mouth sometimes. If hes feeling scared, lonely, or anything of the sort, he'lcome up and cuddle. Has a history of separation anxiety and house soiling, which has been an issue since before I adopted him. If there are no piles of clothes or blankets, house soiling dramatically decreases. He is litter trained and typically uses it. Does not like other animals, and will avoid them. Fights with other pets seem to increase house soiling. He's constantly butting heads with other cats and I hate seeing him so scared so often. No known health issues but I can't easily take him to checkups and he deserves better.

Story
Cordelia (Cordy for short) is a 6-month-old, funny, playful little cat who cuddles sometimes and plays hard other times. We adopted her back in August, and she is spayed and up to date on shots. She’s got a healthy appetite and a healthy sense of play. She cuddles too, though, and I think she’ll do more of that as she enters adulthood. Cordelia is fully litter trained and has been a fully indoor cat. While we’ve come to love her and her antics, we are expecting twins in the spring and her rambunctious personality just won’t mix with two newborns. We will miss her terribly but think rehoming her now is in her best interest and in ours.

Story
Please see__. These two cats need to be adopted together. Both are 5 years old. I have had both girls since they were a few weeks old, they were bottle babies. We are moving and cannot be with the cats for an unknow number of months. It breaks my heart to depart with these two, as I love them dearly, but I cannot find another option. Wednesday is a sweet girl, who doesn't love to be held but wants love when she asks for it (usually when sitting, or if you have a blanket with you). She is a little skittish when walking towards her, as she will run away if you're too fast. Wednesday sleeps on blankets in the living room, sometimes with you in bed. She is well cared for. She has had recent blood work in the last year and gets monthly revolution to prevent ticks/fleas/and heartworm. She is a free-feed kibble eater. She loves to play with dangle toys and loves the outdoor patio. Wednesday is generally quiet, when she does meow it is a cute high pitch!

Story
This is Moose. I rehomed him from my neighbors about 2.5 months ago. There were leaving him in the apartment for week long lengths. Form what they told be, Moose has had a pretty rough time. The got him from the Tacoma Humane Society and had him at their family home. Moose was kinda bullied by the other animals there so they separates Moose. He's very sweet and loves ear scratches. He's pretty skittish and takes a while to warm up to people, but once he's pretty comfortable, he has no qualms about walking all over you... literally. Due to the previously stated bullying, I believe Moose will be best in a single animal home. He's been hoarding foot and chasing my other cat so he's very territorial. He likes to go outside; I let my cats out for small periods of time to stretch their legs. While he will explore, he does stay relatively close to home for safety.

Story
I went to a house that had many cats and this kitten came right up to me and I ended up taking her home with me. She’s been a lovable cat ever since. We named her Ra and she responds to her name very well. She’s lived with little and big dogs. She was actually really close with my brothers pit that I would dog sit. She loves to cuddle and sleep sleep on top of us, by our heads, or at or in between our feet. Loves pets and scratches. All around a friendly cat who will come right up to really anyone to get some love. She’s been on a leash once because of our sudden move from Arizona all the way to Washington and did really good on leash. She’s always been very curious of outside and did great in the car. She like to lay on bellies and put and knead. She like to hang out in the bathroom while your in there and will even sit on the tub to hang out while you shower. She is not very afraid of water. She is an absolute amazing cat that deserves to become someone’s newest forever family member
