Story
Lynx is a sweet loving boy. I adopted him as a Christmas gift for my dad. My dad passed away 3 years ago and I took Lynx in. I already have 2 cats and a German shepherd. Lynx likes his own space and I’m in a small apartment. He has asthma but it’s well controlled with an inhaler and he has early stage kidney disease and that is controlled with a special diet. Lynx loves to cuddle up next to you, he loves getting petted and loves to play with his favorite toys. He would thrive in a home where there are no other pets.

Story
Lexi is a playful, loving 10 year old female tabby cat. Our son moved in with us with his cat and they have failed to get along with each other for the past 10 months. We’ve tried to get the 2 cats to get along but Lexi hisses at the other cat and just isn’t going to work out with 2 cats in our house!

Story
Athena is a sweet, playful kitten who is still learning that the world isn't such a scary place. While she may be a little shy at first, her fun and affectionate personality shines through more each day as her confidence continues to grow. She loves to play, explore, and watch what her feline friends are up to before joining in on the fun herself. Athena would thrive in a home with another friendly, playful cat or kitten who can show her the ropes and help her feel safe. Having a confident companion to wrestle, chase toys with, and cuddle up beside will encourage her to come out of her shell and blossom into the wonderful cat she's meant to be. With a little patience, lots of love, and a playful feline friend by her side, Athena is sure to become a loyal, loving companion.

Story
Bilbo is a sweet, affectionate boy who loves nothing more than being close to his people. He’s a big fan of cozy naps, especially when he can burrow right under the blankets so don’t be surprised if he politely requests to be tucked in with you at bedtime! While he’s an expert snuggler, Bilbo also has a playful and curious side. He enjoys exploring, playing, and checking out the world around him, but at the end of the day, love and comfort are what matter most to him.
