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.November 6, 2024, 5:57 pm

Story
This beautiful, fluffy, 5-month-old kitten with a calm and independent spirit is Christianna! She enjoys the company of other cats and loves to just relax nearby, keeping you quiet company. One thing to keep in mind is that she prefers affection on her own terms, though she’ll happily accept pets when the mood strikes. Christianna is spayed and would make the perfect companion for someone who appreciates a laid-back, low-maintenance friend. Christianna would do best going to a home with another kitty or going home with a shelter friend!
