Story
Meet Maxine! Maxine the Queen, that is. Originally adopted when she was a little over a year old, she unfortunately found herself back in our care a year later when her previous family could no longer look after her. Through no fault of her own, she’s ready to turn the page and start a fresh chapter. While Maxine has a big personality, she also values her peace and quiet. Maxine would do best in a calm, low-stress household where she can decompress at her own pace. She is a independent lady who would be perfectly happy as your one-and-only queen, but she could also potentially coexist with another laid-back feline friend. If you have a quiet home, a cozy cat bed and a patient heart for a gorgeous girl who just needs someone to understand her boundaries, Maxine might just be your perfect match! Maxine is spayed, up-to-date on FVRCP and Rabies vaccinations, and FIV and FeLV negative. Maxine is currently staying in a lovely foster home. Email cats@heartlandanimalshelter.org to set up a time to meet her!

Story
Snowman is a handsome young white and brown tabby with a story of resilience. Originally found as a stray, he arrived at Heartland alongside his brave companion, Rocketman. While Rocketman was the "bold" one who has already found his forever home, Snowman is a bit more of a gentle mystery. He is a shy guy who finds the big world a little overwhelming, but under that quiet exterior is a sweet boy who just needs time to feel safe. Snowman is looking for a patient, low-traffic home where he can decompress at his own pace. If you are a believer in "the quiet ones," Snowman is waiting to show you just how much love he has to give once the ice starts to melt. He is neutered, up-to-date on his FVRCP and Rabies vaccinations, and is FIV and FeLV negative. Snowman is currently staying at our Heartland Facility! We are open Thursday 4pm-7pm, Friday 4pm-7pm, Saturday Noon-6pm and Sunday Noon-6pm. Feel free to stop by to meet him! No appointment necessary.

Story
Meet Peach! Peach, her mom and siblings came to Heartland after they were found outside. Thanks to a wonderful foster home, we were able to take them into our program! Now they are ready to shine and continue their adventures in a loving home. Here is what her foster mom has to say about her: “Peach is the most shy from her litter. She is a little skittish and likes to take things at her own pace. Once she warms up she is so sweet. She loves sleeping on the highest tier of the cat perch and playing with her little red ball.” Peach is up-to-date on her FVRCP vaccinations. Peach has not been spayed yet but it is important to us that all of our animals are fixed and so we ask that you put down a $100 refundable deposit while we schedule a time for their surgery. We will schedule, transport, and ensure surgery and then refund you your deposit once completed. Peach is currently staying at our Heartland Facility! We are open Thursday 4pm-7pm, Friday 4pm-7pm, and Saturday and Sunday 12pm-6pm. Feel free to stop by to meet her. No appointment necessary.

Story
Meet Mustard! Meet Mustard, a big, handsome gray-and-white gentleman with a soft heart hidden behind his shy exterior. While he may take a little time to feel comfortable in new surroundings, patience and kindness are the keys to winning him over. Once Mustard realizes he's safe, his sweet and gentle personality begins to shine. This lovable boy prefers a calm environment where he can settle in at his own pace. You'll often find him quietly observing the world from a cozy spot, taking everything in with his thoughtful eyes. As his confidence grows, so does his appreciation for gentle pets, tasty treats, and the company of people he trusts. Mustard is looking for a family that understands that the best friendships aren't always rushed. If you're willing to give this big sweetheart the time he needs, you'll be rewarded with a loyal companion whose affection feels truly special. Could Mustard be the missing ingredient in your home? Mustard is neutered, up-to-date on FVRCP and Rabies vaccines, and he is FIV and FeLV negative. He is currently staying at our Heartland Facility! We are open Thursday 4 pm-7 pm, Friday 4 pm-7 pm, Saturday Noon-6 pm, and Sunday Noon-6 pm. Feel free to stop by to meet him! No appointment necessary.

Story
Vaugne is proof that you don't have to be the loudest kitten to be the cutest! This handsome little guy enjoys wrestling with his siblings, chasing toys around the room, and pouncing on anything that rolls, especially felt balls! He's just as happy to watch the action for a minute before jumping right in. He's a healthy, happy kitten with a great appetite, perfect litter box manners, and a personality that's impossible not to love. Vaugne is incredibly people-friendly and greets visitors like they've been friends forever. He's affectionate, curious, and ready to bring lots of love and fun to his forever family. Vaugne is up-to-date on his FVRCP vaccines. He has not been neutered yet, but it is important that all of our animals our fixed so we ask that you put down a refundable $100 deposit while we schedule a time to neuter this sweetie. We will schedule, transport, and ensure he is neutered, and then refund your deposit. Vaugne is currently staying in a lovely foster home. Please email: cats@heartlandanimalshelter.org to set up a time to meet him!
