Story
Meet Antonio! Antonio is an affectionate kitten. He's fostered with other cats, as well as a small dog. He was a little unsure at first, but is opening up and beginning to interact with the other animals. He is great with all people and will happily curl up with them for some love. Antonio is up to date on vaccinations. To adopt, submit an application at www.because4paws.org

Story
We've had her since she was a kitten (6-7 weeks) – she's been through many moves, 4 kids, and more. She's extremely well mannered. Curious, loves "kisses", likes to be pet. Sleeps a LOT. She's good with other animals. She's predominantly indoor, but she has no problem going outside and hanging out around the porch or roaming a yard too. Unfortunately between a combination of our last move, with increasingly severe family allergies to cats, we can no longer afford to keep her, and would like to find her a new home ASAP. Thank you!

Story
CASHEW is a very sweet young lady. She is a little shy at first but will warm up. She would love a home without any dogs. A quite home is what she is looking for. We believe with the proper slow introduction she would do great in a home with another kitty friend or alone. Come into meet your new B.F.F.(Best Feline Friend) She has been waiting for you! Sadly too often black cats get over looked in a shelter Cashew is hoping that doesn't  happpen to her. All cats or kittens come with a voucher to get spayed or neutered if not already done. At no additional cost to you.   Please apply online, and then once approved, we will contact you to set up an appointment.  https://whiskerspetrescue.org/cat-adoption-application ##2287115##
