Story
We picked her up off the street and she's as sweet as can be. Loves to eat, so food won't be an issue, but she will try and get into your food if you're not proactive. She's playful and super energetic so a family with lots of time to play is ideal.

Story
Conchshell and her sister Seashell were found living at a Shell gas station. According to their feeder, they had been living there with 3 to 4 other community cats for about six months. The gas station was in a dangerous location, so in early February, I decided to trap both Conchshell and Seashell to socialize them for adoption. They are spayed, vaccinated , and treated for fleas and parasites. This week they started their series.FVRCP shots. Due to their history, I would like them to be adopted as a bonded pair. They are beginning to trust, even though they are shy, I can easily scratch their heads, hold and cuddle them, but they will take time to adjust to new surroundings. They will be ready for rehoming after March 27, however, approved applicants will be able to meet them anytime prior to that date.

Story
Seashell and her sister Conchshell were found living by a Shell gas station. It was reported to me that they were there for about six months, homeless, and had joined three or four other cats who were being fed at night by their feeder. I was able to trap them early February 2026, so I could start socializing them and getting them ready for adoption or rehoming. They are scared, but are learning to trust and are the softest most beautiful cats. They were spayed, microchipped, given rabies vaccination on February 20 and have started their series of FVRCP vaccinations, Even though they are scared, they are beginning to trust, I can currently hold them pet them, scratch their heads and cuddle them. Due to their history I prefer they are rehomed as a bonded pair. $75 each They will be ready for rehoming after March 27, however, approved applicants will be able to meet them prior to that date.

Story
This cat was found on the property of a former vet client. His health prevented him from caring for this cat, so he brought her to the vet and asked to help rehome her. The vet contacted me as they knew I wanted to adopt another older cat. I met with the gentleman who found her and evaluated the cat. He indicated she was not a "problem" during the time she stayed with him. I agreed to take her; asked the vet to do all checks, and administer any vaccines. The result were, a healthy female cat approximately 8 years of age, who was positive for FIV. I brought her home where she spent 4 weeks hiding. The following time she will play on and off, sit in the window, and occasionally come to me when I feed her. Attempts to introduce her to the other cats has resulted in growls. Now, when she smells the other cats on me, she growls. I feel she needs extra time and attention to adjust to the other cats but I do not have the time to spend acclimating her.
