Story
Romeo showed up during a bitter winter. Initially, I thought she was male, thus her name. She is a very small cat, which I think is the result of malnourishment during development. Romeo has been with me about 5 yrs, and is fully grown but is very small. She is docile for the most part, unless she feels threatened, so a slow introduction to other cats and dogs is essential. Romeo acclimated to 2 sisters in our home, which took about 6 months total. Now those sisters are deceased, and she is currently my only inside/outside cat. When Romeo started coming around, it was clear that she had an extreme upper respiratory infection, which she will carry the rest of her life. About 2 years ago, a severe infection required a vet visit and a round of antibiotics, but once through with that, she bounced back very well. Romeo is playful and very social with humans. I am a Stage IV metastatic breast cancer patient, and need to rehome my cats before I can no longer care for them.

Story
Mr. Black was born in my yard with 2 brothers and a sister 8 yrs ago. I was able to trap and neuter and spay him, mother, sister, and one brother. He is a large, mostly white cat w/black spots, and has been an outside cat all of his life. I have insulated boxes for the 3 who remained with me, and have a heater inside a large shed, where they can stay inside their boxes near the heater, and come and go to the back yard as they like. Unfortunately, I am a Stage IV metastatic breast cancer patient, and I'm trying to rehome my cats before I get to the point that I can no longer care for them. Mr. Black is socialized to me, although he is still skittish around other people. I love on him every time I see him, and he comes to me wanting to be loved on. Separation and a slow introduction to other cats would be best. I feel he would be able to acclimate to other cats. I have an indoor/outdoor female cat that he has gotten used to being around, no longer considers her an outsider.

Story
Bean (Boy) and Cafe (Girl) are brother and sister raised together since they were kittens. Both are loving and playful. They were raised with a litter box but have since become indoor outdoor. They live with two dogs and get along great with both. Would love to keep them together but understand if that is not an option.
