Story
Meet Pockets! She's an older girl (11 years) and she's looking for someone to give her the happy ending she deserves.Her mom (my grandmother) recently passed away. She comes from a home that was unfortunately very cluttered and unclean. I wanted to give her a chance at a better life rather than see my grandfather take her to a shelter.I thought I had found her a home, but unfortunately, her new environment hasn't allowed her the time and space she needs to adjust. I'm searching again for that special person who can give her patience, understanding, and a real chance to settle in and feel safe.I'm not looking for just anyone to take Pockets. I'm looking for someone who will give her the time, space, and love she needs to feel at home. Someone who understands that an older cat may need a little patience, but has so much love left to give.Medical note: She has some thinning of her fur on the inside of her back legs and her vet suggested a sensitive skin diet.

Story
Sasha is a very sweet affectionate girl. We’ve had her about 10 years. She loves to snuggle in laps and gets along great with our dog. She is house trained and never goes potty inside. Unfortunately my wife has recently developed health problems due to allergies and we have to find her a new home.

Story
Protect your barn and outbuildings with natural pest control! We pull unsocialized adult cats and "teenagers" from area county animal services shelters weekly because they otherwise would be euthanized as unadoptable. Some may tame up with time and patience or actually be tame, but are too frightened at the shelter to show it. They will require about 2-4 weeks of confinement in a large pen or tack room so that they learn the sights and smells and sounds of their new home, and so they learn that they will be fed. We will deliver the cats to your property and provide a large dog pen, litter, litter box and food if needed. We require that the barn owner continue to provide daily food and fresh water once the cats are free - they will not stay and provide mousing services if they are not fed! They also will need 24-hour access to safe and dry barns or outbuildings for shelter. All cats looking for jobs as mousers will be spayed/neutered and vaccinated against rabies and distemper.
