Story
Meet Galaxy Momma's Celestial kittens Andromeda (aka Drama), Cassiopeia (aka Cassie), and Sirius. Sirius is the love bug that has been climbing into his foster momma's lap since he learned how to walk, and still curls up in her lap immediately as soon as she sits down. Drama is usually right behind, coming to say hello as soon as you enter the room, but she will climb on you where ever she feels like climbing that day - could be your lap, could be your shoulders. Cassie is a little more reserved. She will come say hello when you come in the room as well, but it's more of a "sit in front of you and stare at you" kind of hello. All 3 of them are extremely playful and love playing with each other, hunting a feather wand toy, and then curling up together for a nap once they've had enough fun. ** To apply to adopt one of our animals, please go to our website, www.cjpaws.org and visit the Adoptions page.

Story
Abbey is shy in new environments and takes some time to get comfortable, but once she knows she can trust you, she is the sweetest companion! Abbey is not demanding of attention and is a rather "low maintenance" kind of kitty. When she's not enjoying a nap in a sunny window, she is happy just being near the people she loves. Abbey is a rather petite kitty (her tiny feet are so adorable!), so she will do best as an only kitty or in a home with other gentle pets who are shy. Quiet home and compassionate, gentle, patient person

Story
Named after the cat in Breakfast at Tiffany's, Cat is 10 years old and 11 lbs. He's healthy, neutered, and up-to-date on shots. I adopted Cat at 12 weeks old from St. Francis Society. His foster found him under her porch, took him in and bottle-fed him until he was old enough to be adopted. Cat thrives on routine. He would do best in a home where he's the only pet and can have all the attention he needs. He has never been around kids before, so a home with small children might not be the best fit for him. Facts About Cat: - Food-motivated, always excited for meal times. - Loves to talk and will hold a conversation with you. - Does not like to be held or handled for too long, but he will follow you around, hang out with you, and let you know when he wants to be pet. He loves having his chin scratched! - Indoor-only cat, but loves going out on a screened-in patio! - Not a fan of the car or vet. - Loves to play, carry his toys around, and show off his "catch!" Cat Nikko's mother had to move the landlord would not allow him with her, and mom sadly surrendered him to CJPaws. Cat Nikko takes a little bit to warm up to people but when he does, he is friendly and likes being petted and played with. He loves his stuffed toys and dangling toys and loves to be brushed. He needs space at first and if people move too quickly with him, he will run and hide. Cat Nikko has only lived indoors and has never been around wildlife or dogs. He has lived with other cats and has been the more dominate one in the home with the other cats. He has never been around children and it is unknown how he reacts to them but is good with adults. When Cat Nikko goes to the vet, he has needed to be sedated before because of his anxiety when being handled for exams. Cat Nikko enjoys being scratched under the chin and hanging out on the screened-in porch to nature watch. He loves fabric toys and cardboard scratchers. *** To apply to adopt one of our animals, please go to our website, http://www.cjpaws.org and visit the Adoptions page. *** Pets can be viewed by appointment only and an approved application is required to make an appointment to meet one of our animals.
