Story
Luna is a 5 year old, loving, indoor (some daytime outdoor) cat who loves to look out the windows, drink from faucets, and chase her toys around. She grazes on dry food and doesn’t overeat. She will drink out of her water bowl, but also likes the faucet water. Doesn’t scratch the couch too much if you raise your voice at her. Just need to stay on her. Luna last got rabies and another vaccine shot in early 2025. Luna let’s me put her in the carry case, and will allow me to trim her front claws (best when she is napping or very calm). She’s not much of a hunter and doesn’t bring in bugs, birds, or mice. She likes to go outside and explore around nearby the house, then comes back and eats and lays around. Never been outside over night. She has never had fleas and I give her flea/tick treatment on her fur bi-monthly. Okay by herself in the house all day or for a weekend. Usually when I go on vacation, someone comes and checks on her each day or two. She’s a great cat!!

Story
Roxy is the most incredible cat. She is snuggly and sweet and loves her humans. She’s shy at first but comes out of her shell after a few hours. She’s has always been really good with my older dog, but my puppy has created a lot of stress for her. I’m also now traveling a lot more than I used to, so I can’t spend as much time with her as I would like. I love her so much but I believe she would be much happier in a quiet home without dogs.

Story
The sweetest 4 year old cats looking for a new home. We adopted these babies about a year ago. Learning my husband is allergic and adding a NICU baby to the mix has made it impractical for us to keep them and provide the care and attention they need. They are a brother sister pair from the same litter about 4 years old now. They were born on a farm but have been indoor kitties since a very young age. They’re curious and love bird/squirrel watching from a sunlit window. Felix, the grey tuxedo boy, is an attention hog. He loves snuggles and following his people around. He has more of a dog personality with how much he enjoys attention. Evie, the calico beauty, is more mysterious and cat like. She does love a good cuddle once she warms up, but it will be on her terms. She protects and mothers her brother and loves a good scratching post. These two will come with bowls, an auto feeder, what litter and food we have on hand, carriers, and a two story litter box enclosure if desired.

Story
Loki has been with me for a long time, I've had him since 2012. He does ok with dogs, buts it’s been a few years since he’s been around them and he does ok with cats. I have another cat that he lives with, but he does play rough and likes to chase her. He likes cuddling, he likes being with people and he used to do really well at the vet. My ex used to be very mean to him, so he flinches a bit and tends to run if you raise your voice. I kept him after the divorce, but I can’t keep up with the vet bills. He needs his shots and needs imaging for his stomach, since he vomits too often. I was happy to save him from my ex but I feel like I’m not giving him a good home because of his medical needs. The adoption fee is waive-able of course, I just don’t want him to end up in a bad home. He meows a lot, too, I know some people prefer quiet cats. He’s a little dog-like. He doesn’t like little kids much since he’s older now, but he used to love them.

Story
Corky was my mother's cat since he was a kitten and he is now 17 years old. Corky is shy at first but becomes very friendly and talkative once he gets used to you. He likes to lay on the top of his cat condo and look out the window to watch the birds and rabbits. He would not do well around other dogs and cats or in very noisy/hectic households. He is up to date on his rabies shot and he is declawed so he needs to be an indoor cat or in an area which is enclosed. He still plays with his toys (the turtle is his favorite). Corky would likely do best with an older couple or single person as he does like to spend his time around his person/people. After my mom passed away I was able to take Corky so we didn't have to find him a home but due to my relocation and changes in schedule/circumstances, I can no longer care for him. Corky has a cat condo, two litter boxes and litter pails, and various toys.
