Story
Rehoming Two Very Affectionate Cats I am faced with the difficult decision of finding a new home for my two sweetheart cats. They are two years old and from the same litter. Healthy, neutered, and up-to-date on vaccines. Due to financial circumstances, I am moving in with my family, where there is a dog that is aggressive towards cats. To ensure their safety and well-being, I am seeking a kind, safe, and loving home where they can continue to thrive together. Please see the attached photos. If you are interested in providing a forever home for Moose and Bao, or if you know of someone who might be, please reach out to me at the email provided. Your kindness and assistance in spreading the word are greatly appreciated. Gratefully, Isabel

Story
We adopted Mia in 2019, and she is a wonderful, snuggly companion. She curls up on my lap almost every time I'm at my desk or in bed, purring steadily until she decides to get off and go sleep at the foot of the bed. However, we had twins in 2023 and after months of trying, my wife and I decided that we just don't have enough time, space, or mental bandwidth to give Mia the love and attention she deserves. Mia is about 10 years old. She plays with toys but is happy to search for the comfiest pile of blankets to nap on. Until the twins disturbed her peace, she was by far the chillest cat compared with any of our friends' cats. No zoomies, no ambushes, just persistent headbutts of love. We will be sad to see her go, but we want her to find a new home where she can be the only pet, with adults (possibly with older children) who can respect her boundaries and give her as many snuggles as she wants.

Story
Her name is Tia and she has a sister named Tamera (like the tv show sister sister). She loves cuddles and crossing between your legs and playing with your feet. She is a sweet heart and unfortunately I can’t keep; so I’m asking if anyone has love to spare for her. She loves playing tag with other cats and love to fall asleep under you or your lap.
