Story
🐱 Meet Graham Cracker! 🐱 Graham Cracker is a beautiful grey tabby with a gentle soul and a playful heart. She came to us from Ozarks Pet Rescue, and now she’s ready to find her very own forever home. She may take a little time to warm up and prefers to do things at her own pace, but once she feels comfortable, her sweet personality shines through. Like most young cats, Graham Cracker loves to play, chase her toys, and show off her silly side—then curl up for a cozy nap afterward. She’s the perfect balance of fun and relaxation! Graham Cracker would do best in a patient, loving home that will give her the time and space she needs to feel safe and confident. In return, she’ll reward you with quiet companionship, soft purrs, and plenty of adorable moments. If you’re looking for a gentle, playful kitty who will blossom with love, Graham Cracker may be the perfect match for you!

Story
Turnip is a sweet, sensitive cat who thrives in a calm, quiet home. She prefers a household with one or two adults. She’s not a fan of chaos or loud environments—construction noise, in particular, causes her a lot of stress. Personality & Ideal Home: Turnip is affectionate on her own terms. She’s not one to come when called, but when she chooses you, she’s incredibly loving and loyal. She would do best with someone who works from home or is retired and can be available when she wants company—but who also respects her independence. Important Notes: • When feeling stressed, Turnip may sometimes urinate outside of her litter box. • The ongoing home construction has been difficult for her and is contributing to her stress. • We are looking for a calm, low-stress forever home where she can feel safe, relaxed, and happy again as we prepare to welcome a baby If you’re a quiet person looking for a calm, gentle companion and can offer a peaceful home, Turnip might be a great match for you.

Story
I have had Andi since she was a kitten. She is a well behaved cat and loves all the attention. She would do better in a single pet household. She has been with me for 11 years and has lived along side her mom as well but I moved into a new house a year ago with my boyfriend and we got a dog shortly after we moved. I knew that she was not fond of dogs but we got a puppy thinking they would adapt better that way. Since the move she has not been getting along with my other cat and she has not adjusted to the dog either. She has been going to the bathroom outside of the litter box for a while now and I feel like I have tried everything to help her and get her to stop. So I think she would be happier and do better in a new home with no other pets. She definitely loves all the attention she can get and loves to snuggle. She just doesn’t like other pets any longer and gets jealous and she does good with children but gets skittish around them and new people. But she has never been aggressive.

Story
Raised him from 5-6 weeks old, a friend of a friend found him near a dumpster with siblings. He is a very cute, very dumb athletic boy. He loves to cuddle and parkour down the stairs! He does well with people, dogs, most cats, and small children. Would love to keep him however my female cat hates him with a passion and he has no idea his life may end if he moves wrong. He is neutered, but will need to be brought up to date on his shots.
