Story
Gizmo is a purebred Blue British Shorthair, from Best Meow Meow LLC. He is 4 years old, about to turn 5. Gizmo is a fun and loving cat, I have had him since he was a couple months old. He is indoor only. He was the biggest out of his litter, and comes from a history of award winning show-cat bloodline. He is very sweet, he has never bitten or scratched me, vets or groomer, anyone. I have grown up with cats and Gizmo is the most loving sweetest cat I have ever been around. He is my pride and joy, it pains me to have to re-home him, this decision has been one of the most difficult I have made in my life. Please see Zoey's profile, they are from the same litter and have never been separated. I would like them to be adopted together.

Story
Zoey and Gizmo are brother and sister from the same litter. Zoey is so petite and cute. She loves to cuddle and will keep you warm all night. She is a lot more affectionate than Gizmo, she is a purring machine. Gizmo is sweet but chooses when he wants to be pet, Zoey always wants all the pets and love. Zoey has not gotten along with our dog since we have gotten him, its been almost two years now, it breaks my heart. Zoey has a condition called Inflammatory Bowel Disease. This started just before we got our dog. It was a lot of back and forth, thousands of dollars on vet bills. It can be a common condition for their breed unfortunately. It is managed with routine and diet, stress can trigger a flare up. Her condition is managed now, she only has a flare up when I am out of town for more than two or three days. I would prefer to keep Zoey and Gizmo together since they have not been separated since birth from each other. Please see Gizmos profile as well.

Story
Chester has, until now, had a hard life. He lived in a colony outside for years. The lady feeding the colony requested euthanasia when he tested positive for both Feline AIDS and Feline Leukemia. Despite the diagnosis, Chester is healthy and vigorous. He is a healthy weight, has clear eyes, eats well, uses his litter box, and plays with his toys. He is also very loving and craves attention, which of course he did not get all those years of living outside. We know that Chester still has a lot of love to give to the right family. Please help us help him. For more information or an adoption application, contact Nancy Foltz at 704-616-4904 or NEFoltz@Yahoo.com

Story
Frankie is originally a stray that followed us into our apartment and never left. She is really sweet and loves long cuddles she is adorable doesn’t play much but likes the laser pointer and playing with our dog. She is roughly 2 and a half years old and is up to date on all shots and medication. She is a mainly indoor cat but needs outdoor space to get stimulation we live in an apartment now and she is not happy with the limited access to the outside it is just a balcony she needs space to roam

Story
Samantha Monte Cristo, aka Sammie, Sammich, Cristobal, among many other nicknames, is a sweet kitter. I acquired her back in April shortly after I moved into my house as an indoor only cat. She has been generally very well behaved, and is easily the sweetest cat I’ve ever owned. I can’t help that I’ve fallen in love with someone who is severely allergic (eyes swell shut if Sammie touched her) and we both agree that finding her forever home will be great since she is deserving of love and affection. She is over a year old and is super friendly once she warms up to you. She’s a bit skittish at first, but warms up to humans and dogs pretty well. She came from a multi cat house and from my understanding, wasn’t a problem cate. If AuADHD could be a feline trait, this cat would definitely have it,

Story
Special needs: senior in good health but seniors are special because they need more wellness checks and senior bloodwork. Please only adopt a senior if you are prepared for senior health issues that may come along. Midnight lost his human. Sadly, his human passed away, leaving him alone in his apartment. The family took great care of midnight until they found Fur Babies Rescue to foster him. He is a loving guy who wants lots of affection then he finds a sunny window to nap. He loves treats! He is a very easy and laid back cat once he gets comfortable on his new home. It took around a week for him to relax after getting to his foster home. His life got turned upside down and he is rolling with it now. He would love a very quiet home with his new human. He has used the litter box perfectly since arriving at his foster home. Midnight is exclusively an indoor cat. He has never been outside and would not know what to do. Please do not consider adopting him if he would be allowed outside. Apply to adopt or to become a foster home for all types of cats: Furbabiesrescue.org Midnight will get vaccine updates 2-11-25. We believe he is neutered but we will confirm that at his appointment also.
