Story
Mellow is about 1 1/2 years old, he is amazing cat, who is extremely social and loves to be part of the group. He needs a home with other animals and possibly kids. If my husband didn't happen to be allergic to him, we wouldn't be looking to rehome him. my husband's allergies have to come first. Mellow is one of a kind in all good ways. never once had an accident, has never sprayed. Gets along with our dogs and anyone he comes in contact with.

Story
Mocha is looking for a loving home where she can feel safe, comfortable, and truly cared for. She has a calm, independent personality but is also very friendly and enjoys affection—especially head and back rubs.She likes to do her own thing throughout the day but will happily come around for attention. She isn’t very vocal, but she will trill and purr when she’s enjoying your company 🥰Mocha does well with other cats and is fully litter trained, so she adjusts easily to her environment. She also loves making biscuits and scratching, so having a few scratching posts around will keep her happy 😂Overall, Mocha would make a warm and loving addition to any caring home.

Story
Ella and Nala are two sisters we adopted from the APL in 2024. They were born in April of 2024 so they are a little under two years old. They are the sweetest cats anyone could ever ask for. They love to play, snuggle on the couch, and explore their surroundings. You can always find Nala laying in the window, and Ella chasing her laser around. Once you start petting them they will just purr for hours. We are sad to be giving them a new home, but hopeful that we can find them a new family to love. We have toys, an automatic litter box, treats, cat trees, and cat beds that can come with them as well.

Story
Goose was a stray found as a kitten 3 years ago. He has his shots, is chipped, and is neutered. He is great at using a litter box. He has never "sprayed". He is fine with dogs (as long as they know who is in charge ;)) he has little experience with kids. He has a very playful personality and would do well with someone who has more time to play with him. He is very curious and loves to play with just about anything! He will even let you trim his nails with no problem!

Story
Milo is a playful, goofy, and affectionate boy who’s ready to find his forever home. He loves to explore, relax, and be around his people, even if it’s just keeping you company.He may be a little shy at first, but once he warms up, he’s incredibly sweet, snuggly, and full of personality. He’s great with other cats, litter trained, and loves treats (which makes winning him over easy 😌).If you’re looking for a fun, loving cat with a big personality and an even bigger heart, Milo is your guy.
