Story
"Adoptable Dewy (who has a sponsored adoption fee to an approved applicant!) is certainly talking to us more and lets us know when he wants a belly scratch. His absolute favorite pastime is watching the woods out the window. He is so funny to watch as he runs from window to window following squirrels and chipmunks go by. Our hummingbird feeder is another favorite of Dewy's to monitor." -Dewy's foster mom. He will do best in a quiet house with no children or other pets. He still startles at quick movements or loud sounds. Once he is comfortable, Dewy loves to play with crinkly toy balls, his catnip mixes, and cat dancers and he sure is becoming more and more comfortable. He grooms himself well as he likes to look his best! Eating and using the litterbox are not issues at all with good boy Dewy. Whoever adopts Dewy will need to have a lot of patience. While it takes a long while to earn his trust, he is so worth it. Dewy is about five-and-a-half years old and is neutered. Dewy is living in a foster home! To adopt this fluffy handsome hunk, please email us at pets@michianapets.org.

Story
Meet Lips. He's a four-year-old guy who will never make you wonder where he is at. Lips is known for chatting...then chatting louder...then chatting a bit louder...he's just a handsome tuxedo boy who loves to use those vocal cords! In his previous home, he lived with other kitty friends and a bigger dog. Lips LOVED his dog friend! Of course, his dog friend was very nice to him, too. Depending on the resident cat, he may do well with a proper, positive introduction. Lips loves visitors. He believes everyone is coming to his house to see him and no one else. He is a total welcoming kitty committee. His personality is absolutely lovely. Lips loves laser pointers! He loves food and is always eager when it is meal time. He is a cuddly and affectionate lovebug who wants to be close to his family. Lips likes to turtle (burrow underneath pillows, blankets, etc.) and will rollover on his back for good stretchies. Lips is about four years old and is neutered.

Story
Meet Sparky! He is the most fluffy-cheeked, charismatic typical orange-tabby boy. You know the kind we are talking about...social butterfly, totally lovable and extremely charming. THAT kinda dude. Sadly, Sparky has a heart murmur and we don't know why. We also don't know if he has 15+ years left or if his days are more numbered than we'd like. That being said, you would never know that Sparky has a heart murmur. He is not in pain and is as interactive as they come. He loves to play like any other cat and prefers stuffed animal toys or toys he can bop around with his lil' paws. A home without a bunch of commotion and yelling is exactly the kind of home he is looking for. Sparky is the perfect blend of entertaining, lazy, adorable and just simply joyful to be around. He is a solid 10 pounds and is about six years old. Sparky is neutered and is available for adoption. He asks to be the only kitty in his new home. Please be the person to give Sparky a chance...

Story
You don't often hear of a cat surviving after being hit by a car. Well, Spot did. Although, now she is paralyzed and has very little function in her back legs. (Sidenote! Email us at pets@michianapets.org to request an application. Spot is in a foster home!) We were not sure if Spot was going to be able to make it through her trauma. But each day, she was getting stronger, healing more and was proving to be the absolute sweetest and most loving girl. We were so grateful to be able to give her a second chance. Spot needed a foster home because the kennel-life was not a fit for her. Her foster family is amazing and they created a bag that goes around her waist so she can "walk" around without getting abrasions and wounds on her back legs. Spot was not remotely interested in a wheelchair; her little drag-bag allows her to be just as mobile and she is totally succeeding! Here is a note from her foster mom: "Spot is a one-year-old spayed bundle of love and curiosity. Spot is an incredibly affectionate girl who wants nothing more than to be by your side (or better yet, in your lap). She will happily curl up for hours, purring and chatting away with her soft, sweet meows. She truly loves to “talk.” Spot’s favorite toys are anything with feathers, and she’s wonderful with dogs of all sizes. Despite losing the use of her back legs, Spot hasn’t lost her joyful spirit or her zest for life. She has adapted beautifully and gets around with ease, always eager to explore, cuddle, and make friends. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will fill your home with love, warmth, and a little chatter, Spot is your girl. She is full of curiosity, joy, and nonstop purrs. Please adopt the happiest little survivor. She is ready to roll right into your heart." -Spot's foster mom. Her adopter will need to be able to express her bladder but please don't let that deter you! Many of us had no idea how to until we were taught and now it is so easy! We can teach you, too! Of course, Spot is the perfect girl so she makes everything easy on us.

Story
Have you EVER seen a cuter face? Not only is Ruby's face simply precious but her personality is endearingly heart-melting. She chirps, she nuzzles, she purrs, she loves. Ruby will see you come into the breakroom (that's currently where she is living) and she comes right over and will solicit affection. If you have time to sit down and hang with her for a bit, you are best friends by the time you have to go on your way. She asks that you allow her to come to you and once she knows you're a friend, she pours out all of her affection and cuddles! So, please be patient with our girl. Ruby shines brightest when she is around calmness. We would love for her new home to be a quiet one where she can relax and feel safe. The more acclimated Ruby becomes, the more love she continues to share with us! She is about six-and-a-half years old and is spayed. Ruby is loving living in our breakroom so please ask to see her when you get to the shelter.

Story
Hi new friends! My name is Wednesday! The humans tell me all the time how pretty I am. I love when they say that because I think I am pretty, too! When I am feeling affectionate, I am the nicest girl there is. Come hang out with me at my kennel; my purrs, nuzzles and cuddles are never-ending! Speaking of hanging out at my kennel, that is where you will see the real me. When I am out of my kennel and there is a lot going on, it is overwhelming to me. So, a quiet home where there isn't a lot of commotion will be comforting to me. Playing with toys and being petted when I'm asking for love are two things I really love. I can't decide which is my favorite because they are both very different but still great! I like to be lazy and take the best cat naps ever most days. I also am a chatty girl and like to talk. I would love to find a cat-savvy adopter who allows me to have my "tortitude" every now and then. I'm basically looking for someone to accept me as I am and not want me to be a kitty that I am not...I will love you for you...that I promise. I'd love a home where I can be the only kitty. I'm sure I will fit perfectly into your heart and home. I am about three and a half years old and I'm spayed. Please ask to see me. Love, Wednesday.
