Story
Leprechaun is a vibrant, affectionate female who is ready to bring a touch of magic (and a lot of purring) to her forever home. Leprechaun has never met a stranger. While some cats play hard to get, she skips the introductions and goes straight for the friendship. She is a "People Cat" in the truest sense: The Lap Magnet: The moment you sit down, consider your lap occupied. Leprechaun has a built-in sensor for vacant knees and will happily settle in for hours of chin scratches and rhythmic purring. The Best Friend Guarantee: She doesn’t just live in your house; she wants to be part of your life. Whether you’re reading a book, working from home, or watching a movie, Leprechaun will be right by your side, offering supportive head-bumps and gentle "mews" of encouragement. ##2721547##

Story
Acacia~  1 year old neutered male, $250. Meet Acacia—yes, like the tree, but with significantly fewer survival instincts and a whole lot more orange-cat energy. At one year old, Acacia is living proof that the “one brain cell” rumor is alive and well… and he’s not particularly interested in disputing it. Acacia is just happy to be here. Truly. The world is a confusing place full of noises, opinions, and other creatures doing things—and he’s more than willing to participate, even if he’s not entirely sure why. Someone hissing? He’ll hiss too. Growling happening nearby? Count him in. Another cat pins him down for an unsolicited bath? Sounds like a bonding experience. He’s nothing if not committed to going with the flow. Despite the chaos swirling gently around him, Acacia himself is an easygoing, calm guy. He enjoys affection on your terms and isn’t pushy about it—he’s perfectly content to hang out, vibe, and accept pets when they’re offered like the polite, slightly bewildered gentleman he is. He’d do just fine with another cat after a proper introduction (just don’t be surprised if he mirrors their energy without fully understanding it). Dogs, however, are a different story—he’s heard they’re evil, and honestly, that’s all the information he needs. If you’re looking for a low-maintenance, hilariously agreeable companion who brings a little confusion, a lot of charm, and endless entertainment, Acacia is ready to branch out into his forever home. Apply at cokittycoalition.com to meet him in Loveland! ##2716855##
