Story
Sir Pebble the Great (Pebble for short) is a 4 year old cat that I adopted 2 years ago in Texas. He has moved with me plenty of times and has been so amazing as a companion. He likes his personal space until he doesn’t, and he absolutely will let you know when he doesn’t. He’s a chatter box, and has things to say that will be heard. He’s usually pretty good about everything, chill about it and will kinda just ignore something if he’s annoyed by it. He’s a sweet kitty, give him a shot!

Story
We got Revival as our first family pet, an animal for our son to grow up with. She’s the sweetest to him and has never bitten or scratched him, minus some warning scratches lol. We actually joke and say her government name is revival but her name at home is kitty, because that’s what our son ended up calling her. She’s not the greatest with other animals but she tolerates them as we have another dog and cat. She can be very sassy at times but never mean. However, she LOVES people and cuddles. It breaks our hearts to give her up but she is getting alopecia. We just don’t think it’s fair for her to continue to live with that when we can’t afford treatment. So our hope is to send her to another loving home who can help treat her and love her.

Story
i adopted chickpea in san jose over a year ago as a rescue she got along well enough with my cat onion but we’re not very close. she has been spayed and had her shots taken care of at that point. she is a loving cat and will cuddle with her chosen people. she’s a little playful but decides when and how she wants to play. doesn’t enjoy being carried but is a big lap sitter. unfortunately since moving in with my partner she has become the center of attention with a lot of aggression from the other cats and gets bullied a lot. ideal home for chickpea would be a place a quiet home with fewer pets as she has now become skittish around other animals. as long as she has someone she can cuddle with she’ll be happy.
