Story
Tommy is an extremely friendly, affectionate, and playful cat. He had been living in my yard for a couple months and I decided to take him in. I had him neutered, vaccinated, and examined by a vet. He needed to be treated for an infection. Now Tommy looks like a healthy, happy, beautiful adult cat. I have a resident cat (Lucy) and she is very territorial. I tried to slowly integrate them over a 3 week period, but Lucy just doesn't want Tommy here. He interacts with other cats perfectly fine. It's just my cat that doesn't like him. I've never seen a cat as friendly and affectionate as Tommy. He loves to play and likes to go outside from time to time. He will lay in your lap and let you hold him. If it wasn't for my resident cat, I would definitely keep Tommy. He's a perfect pet and giving him up for adoption is one of the most difficult things I've had to do. I just want him to have a home with people who love him. Please give Tommy a chance. You won't regret it.

Story
Hi, I'm Milo! I am approximately 2-3 years old and was rescued off my current owner's front porch. I am looking for a new home because my fur sister and I haven't been able to get along, but I am very sweet and loving to my humans. Bonus: I am leash trained and know how to sit on command! My humans will also give you my litterbox, food, and bed. I love toys, lap naps, being brushed, catnip, affection, and most importantly, food - I'll eat anything I can get my paws on and smells good! However, I do not like other cats - I need to be king of my castle! I am very adventurous, clever, and outgoing. I also love to vocally express my opinion, whether I'm bored, need attention, or think dinner is late. I would prefer the company of my human(s) for most of the day, but I'm learning to keep myself entertained with toys. I love to accompany you throughout your day and explore your home. I am marked as special needs because I am FIV+ but I have not had any related symptoms or health problems.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. **BIRTHDAY SPECIAL** An extra $50 off when you adopt this bonded pair Sneezy and Bashful together. Sneezy and Bashful just turned 1 year old. Their only birthday wish is to have a family of their own. Are you just the person to make their wish come true? Sneezy is very smart, she is always ready for a new adventure. She loves to lay on her cat tree in the sun or cuddle on your lap for a cozy nap.  Her purrs are very soothing. She is very playful and loves snuggles. She likes to play with her brother Bashful. She must be adopted with her brother Bashful. They would most likely do well with a cat-friendly dog, if given a gradual and supervised introduction. Built-in comedians: Prepare to be endlessly entertained by their rambunctious antics and questionable life choices (think: strategically placed hairballs or a sudden fascination with the toilet paper roll). Masters of cuddles (on their own terms): They may not be lap cats 24/7, but when they do grace you with their presence, it'll be the most rewarding snuggle session of your life. Walking ray of sunshine: Orange tabbies have a zest for life that's contagious. They'll chase after anything that moves (including your feet!), and their playful spirit will keep you young (or at least laughing hysterically). Experts at napping: Because even superheroes need to recharge! Don't be fooled by their bursts of energy, they're also champions of the cat nap. The adoption fee includes completed spay, age-appropriate vaccinations and microchip. A $50 discount is given when adopting two kittens/cats plus an additional $50 off for the birthday special. *Hoof Woof & Meow Animal Rescue presents the information in these bios based on our foster observations and any information presented to us regarding prior living conditions, breed specifications.
