Story
Hi! My name is Rowdy. I am a sweet older gentleman looking for a new place to call home. I'm not sure when my birthday is but the humans say I am at least 10 years old. I may take a few days to get used to a new house. I've been here my whole life. I have been through a lot the last few months. My mom went to someplace called a hospital one day and didn't come back. There has been a really nice woman checking on me and my brother and sisters and making sure we have food and water and clean litter boxes. But, I really want a new full-time mom or dad. I miss having love and snuggles every day.

Story
Percy is a 2 year old male tabby. If you would like a cat that’s always nearby but is very polite, quiet, and doesn’t bug you for attention - Percy is your boy! He loves to be around people, but isn’t a fan of being touched. He is so playful and active, and enjoys playing with a fishing pole toy or with other cats. Percival was once feral and would do well in a home with somebody who understands his boundaries. He doesn’t have a mean bone in his body but definitely enjoys his space. He is a very healthy boy, but his owner passed away suddenly and he will need a new home. Any adoption fee can go to a local cat shelter.

Story
Bogart is a very sweet and timid boy. He is 11 years old, and his owner suddenly passed away. Despite being absolutely terrified, he is still the sweetest most gentle boy, and would be an amazing companion for somebody who could give him some specialized love. He is typically pretty shy but he lives in a home with other cats and does great with them. He has no health conditions, is up to date, and fully litter trained. Bogart is just a little gentleman and would love somebody to love him. Any adoption fee can go to a local cat shelter.
