You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Because of the difficulty getting appointments to get our rescue cats altered in a timely manner, we recently launched our pre-spay/neuter adoption program. The cat you are interested in may be part of this program and will have at least it’s first FVRCP vaccine, a microchip registered to us and will have been treated for internal and external parasites. Please fill out our screening form and after reviewing and confirming your information, our adoption counselor will reach out to you to explain the process.  Hi, I'm Whiskey! I love lounging around and getting cozy with my best friend, Nini. We've been together for a while, and I must say, we make a great team. I'm known for my sweet nature and friendly demeanor, always ready for a cuddle or a gentle pat. Nini and I dream of a home where we can stay together, sharing our love and affection with someone who cherishes companionship as much as we do. We are skilled escape artists and have been known to tear through screens to get out. We will need a secure home and if there is a screened lanai it will either need a pet screen or for us to not go out on it, and we should not be left alone on it.  If you're looking for a duo that will fill your home with warmth and joy, we're the perfect match!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.      March 7, 2026, 12:01 pm

I've always been the quiet type, preferring gentle moments with those I love. I stayed by my son during his tough times battling and beating FIP, showing my loyalty and heart. Now that he has found his forever home I would cherish a home where I can share my gentle love and companionship, since my nature is to love deeply and quietly. If you're looking for a sweet, loyal friend, I'm here waiting for a chance to be part of your life.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.      May 22, 2026, 2:40 pm

Please fill out our screening form and after reviewing and confirming your information, our adoption counselor will reach out to you to explain the process.  My sister Jolene and I started our journey together in a kind couple’s backyard. When we were about three months old, they brought us inside and showed us something new—a safe, cozy life as indoor cats. It was a big change for me, and I’ll admit, it took some time to understand that people could be gentle, loving, and trustworthy. But with their patience, something wonderful happened… I started to open up. I discovered that pets can feel really nice, especially those magical chin scratches. And treats? Well, those definitely helped me realize that humans might be pretty great after all. Over time, I’ve learned to enjoy being near people, quietly sharing space and companionship in my own way. I may not be the kind of kitty who jumps into your lap right away—or maybe ever—but I will be there beside you. I just need a little time, a little patience, and a lot of understanding as I settle into a new home. If you’re someone who believes that love grows slowly and beautifully, I think we could be something really special. With your kindness, I’ll keep learning, keep trusting, and keep discovering just how sweet life as a pampered cat can be. I’m ready for my next chapter… could it be with you?Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.      May 22, 2026, 2:40 pm

I’m two years old, and if there’s one thing you’ll notice right away, it’s my magnificent bushy tail. It has a personality all its own—swishing when I’m curious, fluffing when I’m feeling playful, and wrapping around me when I’m settling in for a cozy rest. I’m what you might call a “full-of-life” kind of kitty. I love to move, explore, and turn everyday moments into little adventures. A crinkly toy? Mine. A sunny spot? Claimed. Your attention? Oh yes, I’ll take that too—on my terms, of course. I’m a confident girl with a spark, and I think life is meant to be enjoyed with a little flair. Now, I want to be honest with you, because I think the best relationships start that way. Other cats? I’m still figuring them out… and I think I might prefer being your one and only. Dogs? That’s a mystery I haven’t quite solved yet. When I was younger and living outside, I had to look out for myself, and I learned to be a little defensive. Can you blame me? It made me strong—but also means I’m looking for a home where I can feel safe, understood, and not have to compete. The people who rescued me tried their very best to help me settle in with their cats, but it turns out I shine brightest when I don’t have to share my space. So now I’m here, hoping my perfect person finds me. What I really want is simple: A home where I can be myself. A human who understands that trust takes a little time—but is so worth it. A place where my energy, my beauty, and my big personality are celebrated. If you give me that, I promise I’ll give you something special in return—little moments of connection, playful joy, and the quiet comfort of knowing I chose you. So… what do you think? Do you have room in your heart (and your home) for a one-of-a-kind girl like me   **I am part of the "From Our Home to Yours" Program.
