Story
Meet Snow! She is the mom to Jonah, Blue, Spider, Fiddler and Chesapeake and now it is her time for her forever home. She can be a little shy at first but once she warms up she would loves to just sit next to you cuddled on the couch. She would do best with other cats and older kids.

Story
Joey is sweet boy who was living on the streets of Wilmington being fed by an individual once in a while and was always trying to get some love and attention but did not get much. He was so friendly, we were afraid something might happen to him being so venerable. We also thought he deserved a better life than living on the streets, so we took him in with the hopes of finding him a loving inside home! He has been neutered, vaccinated for FVRCP and rabies, flea and worm treated and is negative for feline leukemia and FIV.

Story
Wilson is a very sweet, gentle boy who was abandoned by his owners when they moved out :( Poor boy was found cowering behind a building across the street from our fosters, sneaking over to try to get some food they put out for some strays in the area. They saw how scared and hungry he was and befriended him to come closer so they could bring him inside. He is now inside, safe and warm and very happy and has been neutered, vaccinated for FVRCP and rabies, flea and worm treated and is negative for feline leukemia and FIV. He is very playful and is fine with other cats and ok with their dogs (still not sure yet).

Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Palace and her siblings were born outside a restaurant and living in the woods. The people that own the restaurant we're feeding them everyday and we're giving them attention and try to make shelters for them. When we found out about it we asked them if we could help them get them spayed or neutered and possibly find a home. They did not want them to go anywhere they like their company but when the landlord found out about it he said they had to leave, so we took them in. They are all now spayed, vaccinated for fvrcp and rabies, flea and worm treated and are negative for feline leukemia and AIDS. India and her sister Palace would make a great match if you're looking for a pair and if interested please fill out our application at castawaycatsde.com

Story
Coal is a sweet, gentle, shy guy who was the abandoned at college campus. Apparently someone must have taken him in and then couldn't take he homeafter they graduated or went home on break. Unfortunately this happens a lot. We took him in and got him neutered, vaccinated for FVRCP and rabies, flea and worm treated and tested for feline leukemia and aids ( both negative). Now , all he needs is a new permanent place to call his own. Can you give him the stability he needs, he was surely love for it!
