Story
Jinx is a super lovey & well behaved cat. She loves to be indoor and outdoor. 100% litter box trained. She does well with other cats & dogs & has always done well with my nieces & nephews (younger). Jinx would be best in a home that does not live near a busy road or a lot of traffic as she loves to be both inside & outside. I took her in as a stray back in 2019 and she was already fully grown so I’m guessing she is about 8 or 9 years old.

Story
Meet Conehead Mittens (“Nasal Hazel”) 🐾 Conehead Mittens is a sweet and unique calico girl looking for her next forever home. Born on April 15, 2023, this adorable polydactyl kitty comes with extra toes and extra charm. Conehead has a funny little voice that sounds like she talks through her nose. While she may be a bit shy when meeting new people, give her some time to settle in and you’ll discover a gentle companion who starts purring the moment you pet her. Conehead is more of a laid-back observer than a troublemaker. Her favorite pastime is finding the perfect window and keeping watch on the world outside. She is house-trained, enjoys a peaceful environment, and occasionally lets you know exactly what’s on her mind with her unique vocal commentary. She has been around children and a dog periodically and has done well, though she typically prefers to hang back and observe until she feels safe and comfortable. Owner is relocating/university
