Story
Chloe is a five year old female Calico and she’s pregnant but I’m not sure how far along she is. You would have to be willing to take her babies as well because I won’t separate her from babies. Chloe is a very independent cat and might be happier being the only cat. . She’s affectionate on her terms. An excellent mouse hunter

Story
Orion would be a great barn cat. He’s an intact male, has fathered 4 litters, and is big bodied boy. He likes his high perches because I often find him on top of the refrigerator or shower stall wall. He’s about a year and a half old so he’s got plenty of energy for playing or hunting. He’s been an indoor cat the entire time I’ve had him.

Story
Tiny was the runt out of a litter of 6 but he’s got a voracious appetite that energizes his zoomies. He’s got a big personality that’s balanced between cuddle bug and playful attacks. He’ll do well with other cats the same age
