Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Online Adoption Application › Sugar was a stray who found herself  pregnant and in need. Her foster took her in so she could safely finish raising  her babies. She has now been in her foster home for almost a year now.  She is spayed up to date on vaccines and preventatives, and microchipped. Sugar has really taken to the indoor cat life. She is sweet and loves her humans. She enjoys a good head scratch and attention  from her people. One of her favorite  things to do is lay in front of the window and watch the world go by. She does well with the children in the foster home, however  has not been tested with other cats or dogs. She would likely be fine with them as long as they are respectful  of her boundaries  and let her be the independent cat she is.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 7, 2026, 1:53 pm

Story
Meet Dr. Pepper! Dr. Pepper has came a long way since entering our shelter. She came in as a very timid and shy stray. After long cuddles and enrichment- she is slowly blossoming out of her shell. Dr. Pepper would do best in a household that is calm and easy going. Preferably with another cat as well! Dr. Pepper loves other cats! She may also do well with dogs given slow and proper introductions. Dr. Pepper is ready to say “peace out!” To the shelter life and ready to find her forever home!

Story
Meet Cruella! This little lady earned her name- she came in angry at the world and ready to let you know! However, Cruella has taken some time in a foster home and adjusted slowly. She doesn`t HATE the world as much anymore, and has realized humans aren`t the worst. Cruella currently lives with her sibling, Gaston, and is other adult cats as well as a small dog. The key to her heart is treats, wet food, a snack, shes a foodie! Cruella`s most recent finding has been pets/affection, she`s still confused by it but is a purring machine once you start! Could you give Cruella a chance?

Story
Meet Batman! Batman may seem like a familiar face, but he is now back at our shelter through no fault of his own. Batman is looking for his forever family! Batman is super sweet and affectionate; he loves to cuddle up in your arms after a long day and will affectionately trill in your ears. Want a hug, just pat your chest and he will come running with ready paws. Batman is great with other cats and dogs. Batman would do well in a home with a little bit older child(ren). He is not comfortable with little ones running at him. The black night however is also a little nervous of ceiling fans, but his foster mom is working on getting him comfortable with them.
