Story
Meety Sammy (Sam). He showed up a couple months ago. He got fixed recently and has his rabies shots. He is very chill and does well with the neighbor kids. He is very calm and lays around Alot lol. He loves to look out the window and watch birds. He is a very good hunter (when he was outside). He has been treated for fleas. I adore him but I already have a cat and don't have the money for another one. He will come with his collar, litter box, food, and also a cat tree with a little cubby he likes to go inside. I will vet whomever wants to adopt him and will want to see where he is going to live. Prefer no indoor smokers as the smoke is toxic to animals. I have spent probably 300 or more taking care of him, getting him fixed, and taking him to the vet which is why I am asking 25 dollars to ensure he goes to a good home

Story
Simba is such an amazing cat, I hate to have to give him up. Unfortunately my landlord has changed pet policies and it’s ridiculous, I’d rather he live freely with a new owner then a slave to a landlord, Simba is 7 and a half months being that he was born in march. While he was younger he leaned too far out of a window and broke his hip. He was medically treated and has since fully recovered (still limps time to time due to his hip) but there is no pain and he still runs and jumps all day as if it never happened. He comes with a new top entry litter box, food, litter, toys, automatic pet feeder and water dispenser, nail clippers, and a brush. He aswell as everything he comes with will be free of charge.

Story
Rizzo is a charming, affectionate, and playful cat with a big personality! He loves to lounge in cozy spots like laundry baskets or perch proudly at the top of his cat tree. But don't let his chill side fool this guy has serious moves when it's playtime! Fresh laundry? Rizzo sees it as an invitation to pounce and play. Whether it a feather toy, a t-shirt, or a laser pointer, he will put on a show with leaps and even backflips if you really get him going. When it comes to affection, Rizzo has his own flavor. His favorite way to show love is by hanging out near your feet while you're sitting, happily soaking up foot pets. Rizzo was declawed when he was very young and as a result has always been an indoor cat. He will be most at home with a family that is able to periodically play with him and give him love and attention during downtime.

Hi, my name is charm 😊 I just turned a month old and will be two months 12-26-25. My birthday is 10-26-25. I have a sister and mom I love to play with. I’m still getting use to running and climbing. And I just discovered tuna is really yummy 😋 I love to be held and on the shy side still since the world is so new to me. I’m looking for my forever family to love me and have lots of memories and love and tuna 🤭 also I’m the one to the left, the right is my baby sister Clover. She’s looking for her forever family too😊 she’s just like me but not to big on tuna but loves chicken 😋 and also loves to play and climb on everything and everyone
