Story
Meet Mama Bandit 🖤🤍 Bandit is a beautiful 2-year-old black and white tuxedo cat with striking green eyes who is finally ready for her first real home. She spent her early years as a stray, raising multiple litters and surviving on her own… never quite close enough to trust anyone. But she made it, and now she’s ready to just be a cat for the first time in her life. Calm, gentle, and simple in the best way♥️ Bandit wants love, a warm spot, and someone to play with. She’s not demanding, just ready to be someone’s whole world after a life of giving everything to others. She does best as the only cat or with younger cats. As a former stray and mother, she’s naturally dominant and can be territorial with cats her own age or older. Spayed ✅ | FVRCP & Rabies vaccinated ✅ (Spay and vaccines provided through PACC’s Snip n Tip program)

Story
Baby Driver "BD" is a beautiful rescue cat. He is shy but very loving. Once he is comfortable, he loves head and back pats, and he wants to be held. He likes to check out what is going on in the house, but mostly loves to play and run around the house with his best friend. He enjoys looking out the screen door and listening to all the sounds of nature. This is the early morning ritual for him. He is, overall, a very sweet and loving cat. He has a best friend, and I really want them to be homed together if at all possible. Her name is Poe. My daughter owned the cats, but she is unable to take care of them now. I've kept them for a few months, but due to allergies, I need to find them a new home. It is very important to us that they be in a loving home.

Story
We got Jupiter as a 12 week old kitten in 2018. Since then, he has lived with us in both apartments and larger homes, and has lived with both cats and dogs.Jupiter is a very attentive, sociable, and charismatic cat. He loves to spend time sleeping in his bed or cat tower near me when I am doing my work. He likes to play with a feather teaser or with a kick toy, but is more interested in attention and affection than play. He is a classic Maine coon who is vocal, outgoing, and will follow you around.Unfortunately, we are unable to give Jupiter the amount of attention he requires, and think he would do best in either a single pet household, or a household with very low maintenance pets. He has gone outside the litterbox after entering a multipet household. iHe is not a needy cat who acts out if you do not play or pet him, but benefits from being able to sit with his people on the couch or on a cat tree, enjoys being talked to, loves to be given a little dish of milk.

Story
This is Stellar and Luna! They are almost 2 year old tabby cats I adopted from PACC. I am listing them for $50 (25 each) to make sure of serious inquiries only. I love these cats and am pained to see them go but they need someone who can meet their needs and support them fully. Stellar (the one with white) is male and cannot be left alone with a gravity feeder. He needs wet food with dry food otherwise he will over eat kibble and vomit. Luna does well food wise and is very timid because she is small. They are sweet babies who need someone to give them lots of love! They are good with dogs that don't really pay attention to them, or that they can get used to. They do well with kids due to their care free nature but are not fans of being picked up. They do not do well with other cats, which is one of the reasons for rehoming. They are bonded and come from the same litter so they cannot be separated! They are just looking for a small home to call theirs :)

Story
Karma is a 1 year old female, spayed with ear tipped. Her mom was TNR’d when we found her litter and reunited them inside so mom could recover and finish weaning. Karma is 1 of the 5 kittens. Beautiful black with rust swirls in the right light. She is playful but very shy or timid. She is good with my older cats that respect her boundaries but she is fed up with her brothers bullying her. She loves to cuddle and very politely grabs your hand for pets (without claws)! She is so sweet and gentle. I am looking for a home with calm energy and patience for her to feel safe and become the companion she was meant to be. New home visit required before adoption. Transition supplies are included and covered by adoption fee.
