Story
We've had Boo since she was 6 weeks old. & she's now a senior lady. She's very passive and independent. She loves it when her chin is rubbed. She mostly sleeps during the day and moves very slowly when she walks around. She does like to get up in the middle of the night, eat & go outside. She's not very finicky with her food, but she does let you know her favorites. She'll just walk away if she does not like the food served to her. She's very passive; she would do best as an only cat, primarily because of her passivity.

Story
Best Match:  Seeking adopters with moderate cat experience May be okay in a savvy home with teenagers May be okay with other cats; would need slow intro to well-matched cat ​Needs to be indoor-only  Imagine gazing into the void: a silky, pitch black void with two glowing yellow orbs in the middle gazing at you. Then the void chirps. Meet Marvin- he wants to play! Marvin is an affectionate 4 year old. Curious and intelligent, Marvin loves plotting out the best stalking strategy while playing with his feather toy. Much of his time is spent napping or gazing out the window from his cat tree, watching the goings-on of the outside world, but he also enjoys hanging out with (or on) his people, just enjoying each other's company. Marvin does get a little overstimulated with handling sometimes, so an adopter that knows cat body language and when to stop petting is ideal. Wand toys are his love language at the moment! Marvin currently needs a high-fiber diet to support his health and is FIV positive, which is easily manageable and doesn't get in the way of his enjoyment of life. Marvin is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and tested negative for FeLV. If you are interested in setting up a meeting or have more questions, please complete our Adoption Inquiry form below. A note about Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV): Cats with FIV can live long, healthy lives and make wonderful companions. The virus can't be given to humans, and doesn’t spread easily between cats, so they can safely live with FIV-negative cats​. We often house them together at Cat Town! With simple care, FIV-positive cats thrive. Keeping them indoors, feeding a balanced diet, and scheduling regular vet checkups (about every six months) helps them stay happy and healthy for years to come. August 29, 2026, 6:10 pm

Story
Best Match : Seeking an adopter with some experience Could join a calm home with older kids Needs to be the only pet Needs to be indoor only Takes daily medication for anxiety Ready for a new best friend? So is Koala! This 11-year-old tabby quickly overcomes her shyness to become a devoted companion — often curling up as the little spoon for movie night. Koala is wonderfully expressive. She’ll make soft eye contact and meow sweetly to invite you to follow her around the house, sometimes flopping down mid-walk for a surprise cuddle. When she’s at her happiest, she kneads enthusiastically, purrs loudly, and occasionally drools as she makes biscuits. Although she’s not a kitten anymore, Koala still has a playful side. She loves chasing her wand toy near you and goes wild for catnip. After a quick burst of play, she’s ready to settle in with an adoring gaze for close snuggles. This darling middle-aged beauty knows what she likes, and that is to be the only pet in a calm, indoor-only home, complete with her favorite litter box set-up (low sides, please!). Koala has a history of litter box avoidance that worsens with stress or routine changes. She is currently doing well with her current setup and she is looking for an adopter who can partner with their veterinarian to manage her ongoing care.  Koala is ready to reward you with endless affection — and plenty of cuddles. Koala is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and FeLV/FIV negative.  If you are interested in setting up a meeting or have more questions, please complete our Adoption Inquiry form below.

Story
Best Match: Seeking an adopter with some experience Could join a calm home with school-aged or older kids  Bonded pair with Denver Prefers to be in a home without dogs Needs to be indoor only Takes daily medication Meet Cordelia — a happy 6 year old girl searching for her adopters with her best friend, Denver. The two make the sweetest pair, spending their days cuddling, grooming, and nuzzling each other. She especially loves helping Denver stay on top of keeping his long coat soft & shiny to match hers! Cordelia has a chronic eye condition, as well as an autoimmune condition, and she currently takes daily eye drops and oral medication to stay happy and healthy. She'll likely need these medications for life — we can help train you if you haven't medicated a cat before! Cordelia has a history of litter box avoidance which worsens with stress and changes to her litter boxes, so she is looking for an adopter who can partner with their veterinarian to manage her ongoing care. She'll need an optimized litter box setup, with the understanding that her specific needs may change over time. Cordelia is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and tested negative for FeLV and FIV. If you are interested in setting up a meeting or have more questions, please complete our Adoption Inquiry form below.

Story
Best Match: Seeking adopters with some experience Could join a calm home with children over 12 Prefers a home without dogs Needs a cat buddy Needs to be indoor-only  Buster is a sweet boy who will brighten your day from the moment you wake up. His happiness is contagious, and you’ll find yourself smiling every second you’re with him. This playful cat likes digging through the toy box to find his next treasure—his favorites are a crinkly kicker toy and a catnip carrot. He’ll happily roll around entertaining himself (and you) with his antics, and when the zoomies hit, get ready! He will race around the house until he’s completely tired himself out. Like most cats, one of his favorite pastimes is climbing in and out of boxes, especially ones he can make a bed out of, with high sides and packing paper. What could be finer? Buster has plenty of endearing quirks. He’s very curious and likes to explore. He enjoys sleeping in (who doesn’t?) and will usually get up when you do, but if it’s too early, then forget about it. He loves lounging by windows, keeping watch over the neighborhood, and keeping tabs on what the birds, squirrels, and neighbors are all up to. Buster is a chatty guy who will chirp and meow at random times, almost as if he’s saying, “Hey, I was just thinking …”  Buster is currently taking medication and on a special diet to help soothe some itchiness and prevent over-grooming. If you’ve never given a cat medicine before, we’re happy to show you how! At the end of the day, Buster is happiest curled up with you in bed or snuggled into his favorite Spider-Man blanket, ready for another day of fun with you. If this sounds like your ideal feline, reach out to us about meeting Buster today! Buster is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and tested positive for FIV, but negative for FeLV.
