Story
Looking for the perfect companion to snuggle up to at bedtime? Or a plus one for your trip to the bathroom? If so, Kahvi is your guy! He feels most at home sitting in someone’s lap, content to just spend time with you (though he does love spring toys if you have any to spare). Kahvi is a little over 2 years old, and was found wandering the streets with some allergy issues. He is currently being treated for this, and he’s already grown most of his glossy hair back! Since becoming an indoor cat, we have discovered that he does not like to share the spotlight and does not do well in environments with other cats, but would adore having his very own human (or humans!) to call his own.

Story
Princess was born in a barn during winter and brought inside to survive the cold. She later got pregnant by her brother and had kittens, but did not care for them. She has been inside all her life. She loves people, but does not enjoy being touched or cuddled. She likes to sit next to you and vibe. She loves other cats, especially kittens. She tolerates dogs. She'll stand her ground with my cat chasing dog. Unfortunately, she's just not good with the litterbox and we can't figure out why. We're not sure if it's because we aren't clean enough. She would do well in a clean house with some other cats. She eats well and doesn't shed much. She has caught and killed mice before. She's not super playful. She's never scratched anyone as far as I know and she's been around very grabby toddlers. Let me know if you have any other questions, I'm planning on getting her fixed soon if I can afford it.

Story
This sleek, all-black beauty is the perfect mix of playful energy and affectionate charm. With bright, curious eyes and a soft, glossy coat, she loves to explore her surroundings—and then curl up nearby to keep you company. We rescued her in Herrin last summer. She is small for her age and very friendly. She loves to play with us and our other cats.

Story
Say hello to Mary-Kate and Ashley! These sweet girls were abandoned around Christmas, and we took them in to get them out of the cold. We took them to the vet- they are healthy, spayed, and vaccinated. They are 5-6 years old. They have been through a lot together and are very close. That is why they are listed together- we do not want them separated. They are very calm and loving cats. They are very affect to each other and people. They love attention and are social. Thanks for considering these two. Because we have other rescues, they are staying in our garage. They deserve a home where they can get more attention and love.
