You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. *This animal is a part of our “Seniors for Seniors” program where we offer senior adopters an opportunity to adopt an eligible pet at a discounted fee.* To Layla—our quiet little queen with the heart of an old soul. She may take her time to trust you, but once she does, it’s like being let into a secret garden. Her purr is soft, steady, and healing—a gentle soundtrack to peaceful moments. She's not one to demand attention, but instead offers it as a gift once you've earned her trust. Layla is the picture of grace and elegance. Always polite, always box trained, and never one to cause a fuss. She’s a master of hide-and-seek, clever and observant, finding little corners to tuck herself into when the world feels too loud. She’s shy, yes—but so very sweet. The kind of soul that blooms slowly, quietly, and beautifully. After four weeks of patience, she gave her first cuddles—and let me tell you, it was worth every moment. Her love language? Back pets and butt scratches that send her up onto her little tiptoes in the most endearing way you’ve ever seen. Layla may not be the life of the party, but she is the warmth at its heart. The calm presence, the soft purr, the subtle joy. She would thrive in a peaceful, older household—somewhere her quiet magic can truly shine. So here’s to Layla—the wise, gentle spirit who reminds us that the best things in life are worth waiting for.  Cheers to patience, purrs, and tiptoe cuddles. Layla is from an owner surrender.

Toffee is a great six year old cat. She is affectionate with owners-she does have a preference towards female but has bonded with men who like cats. She does well with small dogs and large dogs who don’t chase. The reason we are rehome her is because our large dog has decided to chase her. The encounters have started to become too close for comfort. She spends most of her time in her safe room ( our laundry room) and she is just too sweet of a cat to spend her days in a laundry room. She really won’t come anymore due to fear of being chased. She does well with our small dog but he is getting old and no longer is able to defend her from the chasing menace doggo. She is spayed; Litter box trained, strictly indoor cat who would just love nothing more to cuddle and be loved. Her favorite is to give “hugs” and get pets lol!

Charlie is One of two sister cats we rescued in 2020 in a family members boat that was stored at a farm. Very sweet and cuddly cat that loves to be entertained by toys and laser pointers. She is more dominant than her sister Reese, and unfortunately they have not been getting along recently and need to be separated. Started when a neighbor cat started coming to our window this past year (Charlie has been an indoor cat) and it has caused Charlie to get territorial and turn on her sister since she cannot reach the neighbor cat. Due to us having a baby recently, we do not feel comfortable keeping the cats together since they continue to fight aggressively. Both a great when separated. We want Charlie to go to a home that can give her the attention and freedom so she does not need to be separated constantly. We think she may benefit most from being the only pet in the house so she doesn’t feel competition for space and resources.

Well hello. My name is Van Gaugh. All my admirers say I am just so handsome. I was rescued from a shelter where I was absolutely terrified. These nice people came to get me. They gave me yummy food, treats, toys, cozy spots to nap, and they even groomed my already gorgeous fur. It didn't take long for me to be happy again. I am FIV positive so that means I should either live with other FIV cats, or be an only cat. Having FIV means I have a weaker immune system so I need my humans to make sure I get routine dental care, and if I get sick I will need to see the doctor right away. I can live a normal life just like any other cat, but sadly this does often make cats like me get overlooked. My ideal home is a quiet one where we can relax and enjoy each others company. If you think you have it in your heart to open your home to me, I promise, I will be worth it. Apply to adopt- http://www.fureverhomerescue.com/how-to-adopt.html

Well hello I am Aubrey. The humans keep telling me that I will have a home in no time because I am so cute. Hopefully they are right! A little about me. I like playing with my siblings, enjoying the sunshine, and supervising the humans. They always do such weird stuff. Not a lot of it makes sense to me but it's still fun. Now I am just ready for the next step in life...a home. Apply to adopt with Fur-Ever Home Rescue www.fureverhomerescue.com
