Story
My co-worker had a stray cat living near their house who had kittens. My husband and I took one of the kittens, a gray female, in early September 2023, when she was about 1 month old. Now, as of 11/18/2024 she is about a year and 3 months old. I have two huskies, who unfortunately see her only as prey, even after living together for a year. The dogs have attacked her a few times, (luckily no injuries). We have tried everything and they still don't get along. Ahsoka is living in our spare bedroom, and when we let her out of the room, we have a tall baby gate to separate the dogs and her. We have decided to re-home Ahsoka because its not safe for her at the house, and its not fair that she has to spend most of her time in a bedroom, alone. She is sweet and feisty at the same time. She loves to play and zip around, but also cuddle when she is sleepy. She doesn't really like to be held.

Story
This is Boe. He is the most sweetest loving cat and will purr and lay on top of you all night long. Loves to snuggle and is very patient with kids. He doesn’t get along with other cats in the house so needs to be an only cat. He has a cute little broken tail at the tip but it doesn’t hurt him at all. He sometimes looks a little cross eyed which makes him so much cuter. He is so deserving of all the love and pets and treats!

Story
OJ is such a sweetheart and loves to lay right by your feet to protect you at nights. He is very food motivated and will wake you up for food! This orange lover will purr constantly when petting him. He’s about to turn 5 years old. His little meow is the cutest thing and he is always following you to see what you are up to.
