Story
I rescued her 7 years ago when she was a kitten. Unfortunately, life changes and I am unable to continue taking care of her due to relocating to the west coast and unable to have pets due to traveling and busier schedule. She has been indoor cat and only cat. She is very affectionate and loving specially with men. Very charismatic, energetic, talkative, and loving. Loves to cuddle. Adoption fee is only $10 because I want her to go to a caring person and I don't care about money in regards to her being in a good place. Please, ONLY apply if you're serious. I've had two people "interested" but they've backed out and unfortunately I don't have all the time in the world and I don't want to take her to the Humane Society. Please think twice if you can have her before applying. I don't want to waste your time messaging you and I certainly don't want to waste the little amount of time I have left to deal with this process. Thank you!

Story
Bob. The cat. The myth. The LEGEND.   The story goes Bob showed up one day at a nice lady's house, asking for a handout. He was already neutered but did not have a microchip and it did not appear anyone was looking for this sweet boy. We know some apartments nearby caught on fire recently, and it was soon after everyone moved out that Bob showed up. Rumor has it he single-handedly saved 3 children from the burning building and lost his tail in the fire, with only a nubbin left to wiggle in joy when he gets his ear scritchens. After all, he IS the same color as a dalmatian, right?  We're not saying this is true, it's just what we've heard. But what we DO know is this sweet gentleman deserves so much more than a life outside on a busy street, and we mean to help him find it!  We havent had him long; he seemed ok with other cats outside, but be sure to do any introdutions with other cats very slowly. He has not been around dogs or kids in our care yet. Gentle kids should probably be ok. He will likely hide when you first get him home; sit down nearby and "meow" to him; he will soon come out for some head boops! He LOVES wet food and so far seems to be pretty food motivated, too! ##2672428##

I am a sweet boy who LOVES to play with my siblings and snuggle with my humans! I would LOVE a kitty friend in my forever home, but most of all, I need a family who will spend lots of time with me and NEVER leave me behind! ##2670556##

Story
Poppy was adopted from us as a small kitten and through no fault of her own, is being returned, due to her adopter's health issues.  She's a stunning marble torbie who might not be a "lap cat" but likes to snuggle up to her human at night. She would like a quiet household; no noisy kids or dogs, preferably. She may be a bit of a "scaredy cat" when she first gets home, but give her time and patience and you'll be rewarded! ##1820017##

Story
2 years and 2 months I have been with my foster momma! I was just a wee baby when she got me and my brothers. I have been with her for a long time because I have anxiety and prefer to be the only cat, no dogs, and no kids. I am the usual housecat that likes to lounge around the house in the sun, and in my special bed! I take an oral medication daily for my anxiety. When my foster momma comes in the door I am waiting for her because she knows I love to be pet from my neck down to my tail. If you want a loyal girl who will come to you on her terms give her a loving home! Please give foster mom a call before adopting (813-928-9252, Audrey) ##1641320##
