My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

My name is Gnome, and Iandamp;#39;m looking for a home. Look at my paws, Iandamp;#39;m front declawed. Donandamp;#39;t be shy, I could be your guy. Come meet me today, what do you say? Enough of that silliness? Okay, letandamp;#39;s get serious. I lost my home when my person went into hospice and I came to the shelter along with the other two cats that I lived with. I really love getting attention, sitting in your lap, getting my fur brushed, having my ears rubbed. When I have had enough, I will gently let you know. I am very much a gentleman. Having lived with a couple of other cats, I would do well on my own, or in a household of other cats. All I want is the love of a forever family, a warm lap, a cozy bed, and dinner on time. Could you be my best friend, please?

- Adopters must complete a survey and present photo identification to meet any of our animals.

The adoption fee for each animal varies and is dependent on many factors including: age, size, behavior, medical condition, and public demand.
