Story
Courtesy posting for Montou: His owner is in an Indy Hospital with congestive heart failure and her medical care team has urged her to put their 10 year old male indoor cat up for adoption. He is a super loving indoor kitty. He has been updated on his vaccines and is neutered. The clinic said he was a very nice kitty. He hasn't been exposed to dogs. Please reach out to the owners who are very sad to part with him; they would like updates from time to time. His adoption fee will be donated to an animal rescue.

Story
This affectionate cat is your natural door greeter. He lets others know he likes to be scratched behind the ears, yet he is polite enough to step aside if company is not interested. He is fun to watch chasing unpredictable laser toys, but sometimes just watches. Yet at eight years old, he sleeps a little more than he used to. Then he will interrupt you for a little love and petting. He may sleep on your bed or nearby in the room. He is popular with people; but he is a pushy alpha cat sometimes when with other cats. Don't take me wrong. They like each other. But he is in charge. Around early 2021, like many entering their senior years, his bladder started bleeding. He had crystals and interstitial cystitis, now controlled by special diet. He is a special needs cat, yet when I think of him or see him, I see such spirit and love. You will not be disappointed with this attractive furball.

Story
Bruce and Jet are brothers. They are 14 years old. They have always lived indoors together and it would be nice to keep them together, but they may be adopted separately if possible. Bruce has a prescription diet and the cats need to be fed separately, but otherwise they are healthy, playful and also fine if left alone. They were raised among dogs and lots of company so they love people and get along with other pets. I have to travel a lot with my new job and boarding the cats is expensive for me. Thank you.

Story
Hi! I’m Tinga. I was adopted from IACS in February. 6 months later my previous owner tried to return me due to landlord fees. The shelter is already overcapacity and requires appointments. I was about to be dumped outside when one of the workers decided to take me home and try to re home me themselves. At first I was at my house, and then I was put in a box, taken back to the scary shelter, and then taken to a random place that I’ve never been before! I was so confused! I hid under the bed for a whole day. I never showed any signs of aggression I was just scared being in this unfamiliar place. But once I came out I let her know how sweet I was and how much I love pets. Now I cuddle and lay on the bed instead of under. She already has two cats and a dog in a one bedroom apartment with low funds. If her situation was different she would love to have me. I am around a year and a half and have lived with another cat in my previous home. I am playful and so nice :)

Story
Luna entered our family as a stray in serious need of help. Emaciated and flea ridden, we took steps to get her better and succeeded for the most part. The fleas created a skin condition that we haven't been able to identify or address and are not able to help her heal from. We have other pets, 2 elderly, that also need our attention with steep medical costs and we simply cannot help Luna to recover to the fullest. Luna LOVES boxes and will practically live in them if allowed. She also loves window sills and sitting at our back sliding glass door. She is good with other cats, but I believe she would be better suited to a single cat home until she fully heals. Luna will take time to warm up, but she loves neck scratchins and belly rubs if she flops over. Luna is roughly 2 years old, spayed and has never had any kittens. We would love for Luna to find a caring home to help her with this temporary hurdle and love for a lifetime.
