Story
Lucy is a sweet cat that loves to make biscuits on your lap and just wants a family to spend her years with. She is amazing with kids and would prefer to be the only pet but does okay with other animals as long as they give her space. She spends her days laying around catching some sunbeams and napping on your lap if you will let her. She is an amazing companion animal and would do great for someone that just wants some company. Sadly Lucys owner passed away and was left behind in the home with 2 other kitties. She came to our rescue and keeps getting over looked because she is an older girl but still has so many years of life left in her.

Story
Noelle is a super sweet young Dilute Calico rescued off the streets. She is so snuggly and full of energy. Noelle is friendly and would be a great companion for a work from home professional or a family with older kids. She hasn't been around young children since being in foster care so we don't know how she would be with little ones but she's a love bug so she may love them to pieces. Noelle loves to play and wants to chase other kitties when playing so she might be best as an only kitty as she may be too much for some kitties. Noelle is fully vetted and tested negative for Feline Leukemia and FIV. Her $150 rehoming goes toward this pretty girl's vet expenses. If you would like to meet this adorable angel or find out more info, please email Cathythornton62@gmail com. Courtesy post. CThorton

Story
Lady Marmalade is done with kitten duty and is ready to be loved and spoiled for the beauty she is.  She's sweet and affectionate with a little bit of spice.  She's not a lap cat yet but she will be when she trusts you.  Quiet and well-behaved and uses her litter like a champ. Unfortunately spent some time outside so she will have to be watched until she feels at home.  Probably not suitable for small children. Indoor cat only. The adoption fee is $25. This covers the cost of spay/neuter, PVR, Rabies, flea, tick, ear mite and worm treatment. To adopt, you need to first fill out an application. Go to: https://rutherfordcountyhumanesociety.org/cat-adoption-application/ We are located in Western North Carolina. Optional transport is weekly.  After your application is approved, we will contact you regarding cost and delivery if you so desire.  May 4, 2025, 2:41 pm

Story
Miranda loves attention and petting from people, but she must be the only cat because she smacks the fire out of other cats. This is probably because she had to fend for herself and fight off other cats and who knows what else in the trailer park where she wandered around for a couple of years before we got her. She had to be fierce to protect her babies, she had at least two litters according to the two young women who fed her but didn't let her inside. Now in a loving foster home, she is enjoying being inside, safe, and no longer hungry or fighting. If you want only one pet, Miranda will bask in your attention and make a lovely companion. Miranda’s approximate date of birth is 12/10/2020.
