Story
I’ve had Baby since she was about 8 weeks old, & she lived inside the house with me until about 4YO. She lived inside my son’s house with his 2 cats since she was about 4YO due to me traveling frequently. My son passed away suddenly last year, & I’m still gone from home a lot. My neighbor is feeding Baby, etc., & tries to spend some time with her daily. She is a little shy at first, but will end up in your lap & on your bed! She’s a sweetheart, & needs much more attention than she’s getting.

Story
Coffee was acquired from PetSmart in April 2025. She is one year old this month (January 2026). She is very shy. She had a friend (raised together) with our other cat, Skittles (already adopted). Coffee is very inquisitive and loves to explore, and to be rubbed on her belly, but not her head. She has been spayed, and she is up to date on her shots. She has never been outside, and she does not have her rabies shot yet. Coffee is the black tuxedo cat.

Story
Aela is the cutest, sweetest, spunkiest girl! We adopted her about 3 years ago as a rescue kitten. We are heartbroken that our lives (and traveling) has made it less than ideal for her to stay with us. She LOVES snuggles (when she is ready to snuggle). She also likes to play fetch, especially with a bouncy ball. She can hold her own against bigger, meaner cats she isn't afraid! Aela cares about people and gets very concerned if someone gets injured, she will meow like crazy and rub all over you. She is very intelligent and you can tell her to get down from a counter or someplace and she will complain back to you, but then usually gets down. I cannot even say how much you will adore this little girl.

Story
This breaks our hearts! Eli is 7 years old. We adopted him as a rescue kitten and he is a Bengal/Tabby mix. He is the BIGGEST snuggler you will know. He will sometimes push you down on your bed/couch so he can sit in your lap. Eli would do best in a home without other pets, though he can learn to tolerate . He will need to be allowed outside and a more rural area would be ideal. He will also want to snuggle a lot. He gets emotional if you travel. We feel it is too hard on him with our changed career and lifestyle and he really needs consistency with his humans. You will absolutely love this boy.

Story
Meet Lolly Lolly is a bright, playful kitten with a clever streak and a heart full of love! She’s the high-jump champion of her foster home—always leaping, exploring, and finding new ways to have fun. Her energy and curiosity keep things lively, but at the end of the day, she’s all about the snuggles. Lolly loves gentle pets and one-on-one affection. She’s a bit of a homebody and prefers a calm, cozy environment over big crowds or noisy places (and yes, she’s not a fan of the vet!). If you're looking for a smart, affectionate kitty who will entertain you with her acrobatics and melt your heart with her cuddles, Lolly is the perfect fit. She’s ready to leap into your life and your heart!
